The Lucky Wife novel Chapter 88

Rose shivered. Tears rippled in her pair of obsidian black eyes. At that moment, it was as if she had lost her judgment and was being swept around by the winds aimlessly.

Josephine could not bear to see Rose in that state. She clenched her teeth and said, “Or maybe let’s just wait a little longer. If their motive is money, I still have a large sum that I cheated off from my big brother. It should be enough to feed those kidnappers’ appetites.”

Rose was feeling lost, and her mind was in a mess. She could not decide if she should seek help from Jay.

Rose’s hunch was correct. The kidnappers had abducted Baby Robbie for money.

However, when the kidnappers forced Baby Robbie to give them his parent’s phone number, Baby Robbie got worried that these kidnappers would frighten his weak and helpless mommy, thus he gave them Jay’s phone number without hesitation.

When the kidnappers dialed Jay’s number to demand ransom, Jay and Jenson had made peace and were having their meal at the dining table.

His phone rang. Without giving much thought, Jay picked up the phone to hear a voice that had been processed through a voice changer. It creepily said, “Your son is in our hands. If you want him alive, bring us money in exchange for him. 100 million. I’ll kill him if the money is short even by a cent.”

Jay took a look at Jenson who was safe and sound. The corner of his lips curved into a smile. “You’ve got the wrong number!” Then, he unceremoniously hung up the call.

Jenson overheard what the kidnappers said. He was so frightened that his chopsticks and noodles fell to the ground.

Jay saw the fear in his son’s expression. He put down his cutleries and walked over to comfort Jenson. “It’s just a call from scammers. They do not have any hostages.”

Who could expect that Jenson would suddenly run out without a care? Jay looked dumbfounded at Jenson whose reaction was out of the norm. Then, he quickly gave chase.
