Chapter 57
The call was suddenly hung up again.
But Valeria really didn’t understand. This kidnapper didn’t ask for a ransom but sent her abroad. What did the person mean?
Keith walked up to Valeria and said, “Valeria, let’s go to the villa’s surveillance room and see if there are any clues.”
“Yes, let’s go look at the surveillance videos!” Valeria immediately stood up and walked upstairs.
There were several surveillance cameras outside the door of Keith’s villa. They must have captured some important clues.
Hence, the two of them went to the surveillance room and carefully watched the surveillance footage for the entire day.
As expected, Ava stuffed Alex into a black car and the car left without returning.
Ava stayed in the villa for the entire day. At night, she left the villa in a panic. Now that Valeria could not get through to Ava’s. phone, Ava must have run away.
“Til get someone to check the license plate number of this car now, Keith said, turning to make a call.
h’s he
Although Valeria was very grateful for Keith’s help, to be honest, it was too slow.
If this continued, Valeria was afraid that Alex might be drugged with sleeping pills. Alex’s temper was very bad. If he angered the kidnapper because he cried, he would definitely be drugged with sleeping pills to make him fall asleep obediently.
“Valeria. It’s late. My friend told me he might not be able to find out until tomorrow morning, so don’t worry…”
Keith knew that Valeria was anxious to save her son, but with their connections, it would take them so long to find clues.
“Keith, I know. Thank you.. Valeria sat on the sofa weakly, her mind filled with fantasies of what Alex was doing and whether he was suffering.
Keith thought about it again and again before suggesting. “Valeria, it’s better to call the police. It’s more convenient for the police to investigate this kind of thing. The various clues will be sorted out more clearly
Keith thought that calling the police was the safest and most effective way, but Valeria did not dare to take the risk.
“No! That kidnapper said that if I dared to call the police, I’d receive Alex’s fingers tonight! I can’t call the police. I can’t take the risk!”
Valeria denied it immediately. How could she dare to take the risk? If the police didn’t find Alex quickly and the kidnapper knew that Valeria had called the police, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Keith still wanted to persuade Valeria to call the police. I understand how you feel, but if we don’t call the police, we em only wait for the kidnapper’s news and do nothing…
“Keith, I’m begging you. Don’t call the police. You can go back. I wait here for the call When there’s news, I’ll definitely inform you immediately!” Valeria’s clear eyes were slightly red, and her pitiful look–made people pity her.
“Okay, I won’t call the police, but I can’t leave. I’ll stay here with you.”
How could Keith leave at a time like this? Valeria looked like she would break down at any moment.
“Alright, I… I’m too tired. I want to stay in the bedroom for a while Help yourself. This is your home anyway. After saying that, Valeria walked upstairs with heavy footsteps.
Keith looked at Valeria’s dejected back and frowned with a gloomy expression. He watched as Valeria returned to the

bedroom and closed the door.
The man picked up his phone. After some hesitation, he still called the police in the end.

At this time, it was normal for Valeria to not dare to call the police because she was threatened. However, as a bystander. Keith had to be calm. Only by calling the police could they save Alex as soon as possible.
Valeriat returned to the bedroom and leaned against the door. Her body slid down weakly, and she broke down crying.
Valeria had never thought that Alex would be in such danger. Last night, Valeria sensed that something was wrong with Ava, but she had not thought too much about it, causing Alex to be kidnapped.
It was all Valeria’s fault for being incompetent as a mother.
Valeria remembered that when she left in the morning, Alex was still sleeping. He had slept so soundly and sweetly, but
now….
Suddenly!
Valeria’s phone rang!
Valeria immediately stopped crying and took out her phone. Now that any unknown number was calling, she felt that it might be the kidnapper.
Valeria picked up the phone in a choked voice. “Hello! Is that you?”
“You called the police? It seems that you really don’t care about your son’s life. I even suspect whether this is your biological son. Do you want him to lose his finger?” The voice of the voice changer came from the phone. It was strange and terrifying
Calling the police?
Valeria’s eyes widened. “I didn’t call the police! I really didn’t call the police!”
“You’re still lying. Look at the police cars outside your villa and the police in your living room. They’ve already started setting up the trap, yet you’re still lying here!”
Valeria staggered to her feet. She walked to the window and looked down. Sure enough, she saw several police cars.
Valeria rushed out of the bedroom and looked down into the living room. There really were several police officers already setting up the house, as if they were waiting for the kidnapper to call.
Valeria felt as if her brain had exploded. Could it be that Keith had called the police? She had clearly begged Keith not to call the police!
“Believe me. I really didn’t call the police. My friend made the decision on his own. Don’t hurt my son. You can do whatever you want as long as you don’t hurt him. Didn’t you want me to go overseas? I’ll go tomorrow!”
Valeria was really going crazy. Why did Keith make such a decision? She had already said not to call the police.
A voice came from the other end of the line. “I don’t want to believe you anymore. Just wait and see your son’s finger”
“No! Please! Don’t! Please! Valeria screamed. Her entire body could not help but tremble, and her face was pale.
Then I’ll give you another chance. Escape from here so the police can’t find you. I’ll contact you in three days. I’m a little pissed off right now.”
