Thalia pursed her lips. She found it pointless for her father to be there if all he could do was cry. Rather than helping, he could only sob to himself when the Riveras were busy negotiating with the kidnappers. He was not acting how a man should act, and she particularly despised those who shed tears.

"Don't hand over the money right away. We ought to contact the police and ask for their opinion on how to handle it," Cedric said.

Henry becanxious when he heard that. "But isn't that exactly what the kidnappers warned us not to do? We have to do as they say and avoid involving the police! If they find out, both Lucas and Claudia's lives will be in danger!" The old lady waved. "You're not well-acquainted with their character, and you don't understand them either. Even if we don't involve the police, they have all sorts of ways to threaten the safety of our children. "A better solution is to stall them and use the tto locate their hiding place. We can't view it from the narrow perspective of giving the ransom money and getting the children back. The kidnappers' greed cannot be underestimated. Are you sure they'll be satisfied after being given one round?" Henry remained silent and realized that he had no right to say anything because the ransom money was being paid by them. The old man patted his shoulder again and said, "Don't worry, my wife and I share the sdesire to save them, but you must cooperate with us." "Okay!" Henry nodded excitedly, but Thalia shot him a cold, nuanced look. She believed that the matter would be resolved quickly-which she was not keen on happening. She hoped that Claudia would receive retribution, and she wanted only Lucas to return safely.

The police arrived soon enough, considering how significant of a case that was. "Captain Jimmy! I can't help but wonder how two children managed to be kidnapped in broad daylight at the sate. Has the police force in the area gone soft? Are you going to let this go on until it's possible to kidnap someone from the roadside?" The old lady demanded answers as soon as she saw the police officers. She and many other taxpayers paid taxes to live in a safe environment. The policemen were paid to do their job, but they failed to protect the peace and order in the area. The two children were kidnapped as a result.

Beatrice could not stand such negligence, and she had a headache te when she thought about how Lucas would have to experience all that despite being just a teenager. He did not have a happy childhood to begin with, and it got worse when he encountered something like this on the cusp of adulthood.

When Lucas cback, she vowed to bring him to a religious institution. She would have him receive sblessings to remove the bad luck.

Wally explained apologetically, "This was an oversight on our part. Rest assured that we won't allow this to happen twice. We've already started tracking the number that called you, and I'm quite sure we would be able to pinpoint the kidnappers' location if they hadn't been so cautious." They did not know how effective it would be, but she knew that Lucas was a smart person. He would understand what she was talking about as long as he gave her a hint.

"Ideally, I'd like for you to get a second phone call with your grandson," Wally said after listening to the first recording. The difficult to put into practice, "posuggestion seemed easy but let's

do it another way. I'll take the money ΟΠ and give it to them. Xhen, wait

until they drop their guard before taking further actioix"

Everyone else nodded, realizing there was no other option but to wait.
