Just as Elizabeth reached the stairs, Cathy ran up from downstairs and extended her hand to block her path: "Eliza, you are pregnant right now, so don't run around."

Elizabeth's face paled. Only now did she suddenly remember that she was pregnant, and her entire person became somewhat dejected. "My aunt was kidnapped. I don't know how to save her."

"I understand your desire to save her, but now, you can't just save her in a hurry, you have to believe that Joshua won't just stand by and do nothing. Behind you is the entire Wayne Family, what are you afraid of!" Cathy walked over to her side and advised her in an anxious voice.

Elizabeth heard what she said, and it was true that she couldn't do anything about it.

"Go sit downstairs and wait. Joshua will be here shortly!" Cathy comforted her and patted her arm.

Elizabeth walked down the stairs step by step. Recently, because her pregnancy reaction was too big, she had lost a lot of weight, and looking at her made people's hearts ache.

Fiona also walked in from outside. Seeing Elizabeth and Cathy, she secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

"Can I make a call?" Elizabeth simply could not sit still. She still wanted to replace out about the situation of her aunt being tied up.

Right now, the only person who could solve her problem was Barry. Her aunt was his wife, so the kidnapper might be related to him.

Cathy shrugged her shoulders, "It should be fine to make a phone call. Joshua also did not specifically say for it, who do you want to call?"

"Call my aunt's husband. I want to hear about his situation!" Elizabeth was not so heartless. She could not calm down now either. Her aunt had helped her grow up, and seeing the photo of her being tied to the chair, it was as if a knife was stabbing into her heart. She felt extremely uncomfortable.

"You can ask!" Cathy gave her the phone, Elizabeth remembered Barry's number, and quickly dialed his.

Barry picked up the phone. Upon hearing that it was Elizabeth, he scolded her: "You still are not ashamed to call me? Your mom is already tied up, where are you?"

"Did the gangsters call you? Did they say that they would release her once the money was paid? They won't do anything to my aunt will they?" Elizabeth did not care about Barry's rebuke, and only asked urgently.

"Oh, right. She's not your mother, she's your aunt. You can ignore her life and death now, right?" Barry was still ridiculing her.

"Don't say that. If I don't care about her, why should I call you? Please tell me how things are progressing, I'm really worried!" Elizabeth was so anxious that she was about to cry.

"Who knows what's going on right now? The gang hasn't called me yet, maybe it's related to you and April Jones again. Didn't you also almost get tied up the last two times? You're already safe. Your aunt won' be so lucky. Now that they're alerting the police, giving them money might not even be useful, and the gang might really kill her. It's pitiful to my two sons who are so young, Elizabeth, if this matter is related to you two. I will definitely not let you off!" Barry was also out of sorts at the moment, and was flustered and exasperated, but he actually blamed all of it on Elizabeth.

When Elizabeth heard that the gangsters did not contact Barry, her heart sank into the valley in an instant.

Barry did not speak any further with her, and immediately hung up in anger.

Elizabeth's fingers that were holding the phone turned white, and her body started to tremble.

If her aunt had been torn apart, she would have blamed herself for the rest of her life. But now, she really didn't know what to do.

After Barry hung up the phone, Patty Jones, who was sitting beside him, immediately clenched her teeth and said hatefully: "Dad, consider it as she has some conscience, she knows how to call and ask about the situation, but I suspect that this matter is still related to her mother and her, maybe this time it is Elizabeth who should be tied up, Lily is just unlucky, and got implicated by her, she is fine, she can just directly disappear, and only pity my two brothers. If without their mother, what will they do?"

Barry had some feelings for Lily Jones, especially after giving birth to his two sons. Barry had already made up his mind to live a good life with her, but now, he never thought that such a thing would happen. "The kidnappers said they needed money, but they didn't contact me. I can give them the money only for my son's mother's safe return." Barry was not a stingy person. He could still take out the 5 million. It was just that he had been waiting for the kidnapper's call, but it did not come.

"The police have already come to our house. Dad, do you think that the kidnappers will really kill Lily in a fit of rage?" Although Patty Jones did not like Lily Jones, seeing that her two younger brothers were still young, she still hoped that she wouldn't die. Otherwise, the responsibility of taking care of her two younger brothers would fall onto her shoulders. She didn't want to take the responsibility. It will affect her to replace a husband in the future.

Just as the father and daughter pair was getting anxious, an unfamiliar call rang.

"Dad, pick up quickly. It might be the kidnapper." Patty Jones said anxiously.

Barry's face darkened, he quickly picked up the phone.

"Use Elizabeth's life in exchange for your wife's safe. You are allowed to hand Elizabeth over within one day. You are not allowed to tell the police about this, or else ..." After saying that, the other party immediately hung up.

Even though he hadn't finished speaking harshly, just listening to him would cause Barry to feel a chill down his spines.

"Dad, did the kidnappers come over? What did they say?" Patty Jones asked anxiously.

Barry's hand holding the phone became stiff, his face became pale white.

"Dad, what's wrong? Hurry up and tell me!" Seeing his father's serious expression, Patty Jones became even more anxious.

Barry's eyes flickered, and said anxiously: "They requested for us to replace Elizabeth, and exchange her with Lily."

"As expected, I already said that this matter is related to Elizabeth. This slut, her fate is not good, and she even dragged others down with her. Father, call her quickly, and tell her, if she wants Lily to live, she better step forward and bear this responsibility." When Patty Jones heard this, she immediately hated Elizabeth.

"Do you think Elizabeth is an idiot? Will she die for nothing?" Barry sneered.

"Didn't she always think she was kind and considerate? Tell her and see her reaction. If she doesn't want to come, then even if she's too greedy, she won't act pure in front of me anymore." However, Patty Jones felt that if Elizabeth knew of this news, she might really be so foolish as to come forward and exchange with her.

"No, we can't gamble. This way, I'll call her and ask her out first. We can talk after we meet. When the time comes, she won't be

able to escape even if she wants to." Barry's mind was now full of hope for his wife to return alive, not wanting his two sons to lose their mothers. However, he really didn't care about Elizabeth's safety, since she was the one who caused this matter, and she was the one the opponent wanted to capture. That's her fate.
