"Okay, I'll send someone over to support you." Percy decided immediately.

He had been thinking about what Gordan said to him all night.

He was worried that Pierre might not return even after he gave them the money. However, he was left with no other choice at that time.

He could not find where Pierre was. Hence, he had no choice but to accept the conditions of the Island of Despair, even if they might kill Pierre after getting the money.

Handing off the ransom was risky.

Still, he did not tell Old Master Mallory about it.

Old Master Mallory was not particularly rational at the moment. If he said such things impulsively, others might misunderstand that he had no intention to save Pierre.

However, Gordan gave him another choice now.

Even though it was risky, it could ensure that Pierre would come out alive.

Luke saw the look on Percy's face and reminded him, "There are risks in this operation. You still have to prepare the cash, and it has to be more than before. You can use the ransom to save him if the mission fails."

Luke only said so as he had considered all the situations.

If Gordan's mission failed and he failed to rescue Pierre, Percy could still negotiate with them using the ransom.

However, after this operation, Percy would have to pay more ransom to make sure they agreed to release Pierre.

"I'll prepare another ten million dollars," said Percy.

He agreed with what Luke said.

Gordan, who was on the other end of the phone, protested, "Hey, hey, hey. I'm a professional and a capable rescuer. Have more faith in me. I can definitely save Pierre."

He could not guarantee that Pierre would be rescued completely unscathed, but at least he could make sure that he was alive...
