Goodbye, Mr. Ex: I've Remarried Mr. Right novel Chapter 971

The line went through, but the one answering the call was Kale.

He warned, "Miss Bernard, I believe Mr. Lowe made himself clear. If you insist on bothering him, he'll show you no mercy."

Cathryn hadn't expected this number to belong to Kale. It turned out Drake hadn't given her his number at all.

But with Edgar staring at her from the side, she had to bite the bullet and try again. "Can you please let Drake take the call? I have something very important to tell him."

"Mr. Lowe isn't interested," Kale refused flatly, ready to hang up.

Cathryn cried out, "I've been kidnapped by Edgar. He'll kill me if I can't come up with a ransom of 20 billion dollars."

But Kale was unimpressed. "Well, you're no longer engaged to Mr. Lowe. Whether it's 20 billion or 20 dollars, it has nothing to do with us."

Cathryn's last hope was dashed. Edgar heard it and said, "So, you're useless now."

"No. Don't kill me," Cathryn pleaded.

Edgar snorted, "The Eaton family would pay 40 billion for Miss Eaton's life. Marion would do the same for Debra. I assumed that Drake would pay at least 20 billion for you, but it turns out you're worthless. Keeping you alive serves me no purpose."

Panic-stricken, Cathryn clung to her last shred of hope. "If Drake won't help me, Marion will. He promised my dad he'd take care of me. He'll save me."

The call hadn't been disconnected yet. Kale frowned when he heard that Debra was also kidnapped.
