Her Story: Rise Of Tiffany Chapter 29

As soon as Charlie heard it, he shouted, “Give it to me!” and s*ed the phone from Owen’s hand. All he could think about was whether Tiffany was safe-he didn’t stop to wonder why she had called Owen instead of him.

“Tiffany, is that you? Where are you?” Charlie asked, his voice thick with concern.

“Dad. Tiffany’s voice was weak, barely a whisper.

The moment Charlie heard her, his eyes filled with tears, and his hand holding the phone began to tremble. “Sweetheart, are you okay? Are you hurt? Where are you? I’ll come get you right now!”

“Dad, the kidnappers stepped out to smoke, so I got a chance to call you. It’s Stan who kidnapped me!” Tiffany’s voice was raspy, as if she’d been hurt. Then, she broke down into sobs. “I don’t know where I am. Dad, I’m so scared, please come get me!”

Charlie’s heart shattered, while Owen, standing nearby, caught every word of Tiffany’s plea. If he hadn’t just spoken to her earlier, he might have believed she was truly injured. ‘She’s quite the actress, Owen thought to himself.

But Owen hadn’t forgotten his mission. He quickly said, “I’ll get someone to trace Tiffany’s phone rightaway. As soon as we have an address, we’ll go get her!”

“Yeah, yeah, right?” Charlie responded, his mind spinning. He couldn’t wrap his head around the idea that Stan bad kidnapped Tiffany, but she had just told him that herself.

Tiffany must have guessed Charlie might doubt her, so as soon as she hung up, she started a video call. Charlie hurried to answer it.

In the video, Tiffany quickly hid the phone, leaving only the camera showing. She whispered, “Dad, mute your phone so they don’t hear you.”

Before Charlie could reply, there was a loud bang in the video-the sound of a heavy iron door being kicked open.

When Tiffany heard the bang, she curled up in the corner, hugging her knees, terror written all over her face. Three vicious looking kidnappers barged through the door, their menacing figures captured by the video.

One of them stepped forward and kicked Tiffany, snarling, “What’s your old man up to? Why hasn’t he sent the money yet? Does he not care about saving you?”

“No, no!” Tiffany shook her head frantically, clearly terrified. “My dad will save me, he will. But can you tell me why Stan would kidnap me? I can’t believe it-he’s family!”

No sooner had she spoken than she got another brutal kick.

One of the kidnappers growled, “Who said Stan kidnapped you? Don’t go making things up!”

“Damn it, she must’ve overheard us when we were on the phone! What are we gonna do? If the boss finds out, we’re not getting paid,” another kidnapper muttered.

The kidnappers huddled together, whispering furiously. Finally, they decided to force Tiffany into silence, no matter what it took. The video call ended abruptly with Tiffany’s screams echoing in the background,

Charlie was shaking with rage. As a father, watching his daughter being treated like this was unbearable. “Star, you ba**rd!” he hissed through gritted teeth.

Just then, Owen burst in, panic in his voice. “The signal’s cut off Is something wrong with Tiffany phone? We can’t trace her location. What do we do?”

Charlie’s eyes blazed with fury, his expression terrifying. He spat out, “I know someone who knows exactly where she is!”
