“Sick?”
“Yeah.” Titus nodded. “Tina must have told you before that she had a sister, right?”
Toby gave a hum of acknowledgment.
At this point, Titus’ face twisted with
strong hatred. “Her sister was called
Rina; she was our first born daughter.
When she was still very young, she was kidnapped. We reported it to the police,
but that angered the kidnapper, and he
drowned Rina to death. From that point
forward, Julia’s mental state was unstable, until…” His eyes flashed.
“Until Tina was born. With that bit of
comfort, Julia started to get better. But now, Tina has been kidnapped, and Julia is relapsing for the firsttime in
twenty years.”
Toby subtly lifted his chin and understood everything. Julia was worried that if they reported Tina’s
disappearance to the police now, the kidnapper would also be angered and
kill Tina outright
“If that’s the case, let me get in contact
with a security company and hire a
team to save her.”
As Toby suggested, he lifted his phone to make a call, but someone’s phone
rang once again. This time, it was
Titus’.
Letting go of Julia, Titus picked up his cell phone. A mysterious number was flashing onscreen. It didn’teven say which city the call was originating from. After hesitating for a few seconds, Titus finallyanswered, “This is Titus Gray.”
“I hear you’re looking for me,” the man at the other end of the line said
breezily, yet, coldly.
Titus frowned. “Who are you?”
“You’ve forgotten about me so quickly? I told you previously that I still had a
second present to give to you.” The man laughed evilly and so maniacally that goosebumps rose onTitus’ skin.
In an instant, Titus remembered who it was. As his expression changed, he bit through his teeth, “It’syou!” It was Fox Eyes, the cunning man that was still
fresh in his memory!
Suspiciously, Toby watched Titus.
“What’s going on, Titus?”
However, Titus did not respond as his
hand holding the phone began to
quiver.
At the other end of the line, Fox Eyes
chuckled. “Yes, it is me. I heard you were looking for me, so I’ve decided to show myself. Are youtouched?”
“Who says I’m looking for you?” Titus was so angry that his face was red and his neck was bulging. He’dhave to be mad to seek this ill omen out.
“Well, if you’re looking for the person
who kidnapped Tina, aren’t you looking for me?” Fox Eyes questioned evilly.
Leaping to his feet, Titus shouted, “You’re the one who kidnapped Tina?”
Toby’s eyes narrowed and fixed on the cell phone in Titus’ hand. Meanwhile,
Julia was even more emotional,
snatching the phone over and
demanding, “Who are you? Why did you kidnap my daughter? Please, let her go. I’ll give you anything.”
“Anything? Are you sure?” Fox Eyes questioned in amusement.
Rapidly, she nodded. “Yes, I’ll give you
however much money you want!”
“I don’t want money. How about I let your daughter go if you give me
Triforce Enterprise?” the man laughed.
In an instant, the expression on Julia’s
face stiffened. Snatching the phone back, Titus snapped, “In your dreams.”
He would never give up Triforce
Enterprise to this man.
Chat
In contrast, Fox Eyes was unruffled.
“Calm down, President Gray. I was only joking. I don’t really intend to use Tina to get the entirety ofTriforce
Enterprise. After all, I’m well aware she’s not worth that much.”
As his fists clenched in his pockets,
Toby asked with barely suppressed coldness, “So why did you kidnap her?”
Caught off-guard, Fox Eyes commented, “So, you’re there as well, President Fuller!”
Ultimately, Toby wasn’t surprised that a man who clearly had it out for Gray
Family knew him since there was no
way the kidnapper was unfamiliar with
Gray Family’s interpersonal
relationships.
“Tell me your motive!” Toby repeated.
As Fox Eyes stopped laughing, his voice became sinister. “My objective is very simple. She harmedsomeone that I care about very much, so I must make her pay a terrible price.”
Harmed? Lowering his eyes, Toby began to think. In terms of harming someone, Tina had actually hurtsomeone recently, which was Sonia.
“So, the person you care about is Sonia
Reed?” As the air around his body grew colder, he tightened his fists even
more.
When they were at the restaurant, he was still wondering how many men she had around her. He hadn’texpected another man to appear now. Perhaps he wouldn’t be the last, and there were still other menthat hadn’t yet shown up. It seemed like she had already formed relationships with a large group of menbehind his back before they even divorced. How nice of
her!
“It’s Sonia. Sonia hurt our Tina!” As Julia‘s eyes widened, tears started to flow once again. “Why? Whycould
neither of our daughters escape the
poisonous clutches of the Reeds?”
As Toby heard that, his eyes flashed. It
was no wonder the Gray Family felt
such hatred toward the Reed Family. It seemed Rina’s death had to do with
them as well
“Now, that’s where you’re wrong, Mrs. Gray. It’s your daughter who hurt Sonia, so don’t blame me fortaking action toward her. Get your laptop, President Gray. I’ll let you see your daughter. I’ll show you mysecond gift to you.” As Fox Eyes said that, he began to chuckle
once again.
“Fetch me my laptop!” Titus ordered
angrily
Very quickly, the butler came over with a laptop. As soon as Titus turned it on, the screen flickered to lifewith the image of a face in a fox mask.
shocking him and his wife.
Keenly, Toby stared at the man in the fox mask, intending to see if he had
any moles, wrinkles, or other identifying marks on his skin. He would
be able to locate Fox Eyes using those marks. Unfortunately, Fox Eyes was pristine with no identifyingmarks at all.
“My daughter!” Julia wailed emotionally, clutching both sides of the laptop. “You said you were going to
show me my daughter. Where is she?”
Currently, Fox Eyes was sitting with one leg crossed over the other in an armchair, holding a glass of redwine that he was gently swaying. “Now,
calm down, Mrs. Gray. Here she is!”
Right then, the screen split into two, with the left side being Fox Eyes and the right side being Tina. Atthis moment, Tina was tied to a chair. Her head was lowered, and she was
unresponsive. With no doubt, she was unconscious. Behind her was a large, burly man with a mask overhis face.
Hence, not all of his face was visible
the only parts that could be seen were
his eyes and mouth.
The scene nearly caused Julia to lose her mind. “Tina!”
Meanwhile, Titus glared at Fox Eyes. Coldly, Toby asked, “What did you do to
her?
“Relax. She’s fine. Jumbo, splash some water on her to wake her up.” Fox Eyes breezily ordered with hischin in one hand.
The man behind Tina grunted his
acknowledgment and walked out of
sight to get a bucket of water. With a
splash, he drenched her with the entire
bucket
“Ah!” She woke up with a shriek.
“Tina!” Julia hastened to scream.
At first, Tina froze before responding loudly, “Mom? Is that you, Mom?”
“It’s me, Tina. It’s me!” Julia sobbed,
covering her mouth.
By then, Tina had started to cry as well
as she looked around. “Where are you,
Mom? I can’t see you. I’m scared.
Please come save me.”
“Don’t be afraid. I’ll save you. Toby and
your dad will as well.” As Julia spoke, she tugged on Titus’ and Toby’s sleeves, indicating for them tospeak.
Opening his mouth, Titus reassured, “Don’t worry, Tina. Daddy will save you.”
“I will as well.” Looking down at the
wretched-looking Tina onscreen, Toby
tried his best to gentle his voice as he
comforted her, “I imagine you can’t see us right now because the camera isn’t on, but don’t be afraid. Wehave been
looking at you.”
Now that her parents and the love of
her life knew she had been kidnapped
and were discussing how to rescue her, the terror in Tina’s heart finally receded, and hatred replaced it.In truth, she had awoken once on the way back to
wherever they were keeping her and had overheard that she was kidnapped
because of Sonia
Naturally, that meant she would only
retaliate harder on Sonia!
