The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1355

"Don't yell. Don't yell at the kid. We believe you." The kidnapper's booming voice scared Sheryl. She worried that he might truly do something to hurt Shirley, so she said that anxiously, in an attempt to calm him down.

"Okay, I will stop yelling at her," the kidnapper replied. He then smiled viciously at Shirley, like a demon. He stared at her like a lion staring at his prey, which made Shirley shiver.

"Your parents are listening from the other end of the line. Don't you want to say hi to them? Ah, what do they call you? Shirley, is that right?" the kidnapper whispered in Shirley's ear, scaring her.

After Shirley knew that her parents could hear her, her fear finally burst out. Tears fell down her cheeks endlessly.

"Mommy, Daddy, please come and save me. I am so scared! It's so dark here and there is a…" The kidnapper didn't let Shirley finish. "Enough! Shut the fuck up!" he interrupted.

When Charles and Sheryl heard Shirley's familiar sweet voice, their eyes welled up immediately.

"Don't worry, Shirley. We are coming to save you." Charles sobbed.

Sheryl sighed in relief when she heard Shirley. At least, her daughter was still alive. Sheryl lost all her strength and leaned on Charles' shoulder. She bit his clothes and dared not to make any sound, afraid that she would piss the kidnapper off.

"So, Mr. and Mrs. Lu, do you believe me now? Your dear little princess is with me," the kidnapper said, a broader smile on his face.

"We believe you. Please don't hurt our kid. No matter what you ask for, we will meet your requirements. We promise we will do whatever you ask us to do," Charles said anxiously. His back was now soaked in sweat. It wasn't a business negotiation. He could always start over if he lost a business negotiation. But this was different. He couldn't afford to lose Shirley. The stakes were too high.

If he lost in this negotiation, he might lose his dear baby forever. He would live in regret and sadness for the rest of his life. He couldn't forgive himself if he made such a mistake.

"Well then, I appreciate your frankness, Mr. Lu. Listen, you need to pay ten million ransom the day after tomorrow. I will tell you the place later. Of course, do not call the cops. If you follow my instructions, I promise you that I will give Shirley back safe and sound. However, if you break you promise and call the cops, then be ready to say goodbye to your daughter forever. I swear, you will receive a dead body instead."

"I promise that we won't call the police, as long as you don't hurt our daughter. Otherwise, I swear to God, I will hunt you down the four corners of the earth and make you pay for what you have done," Charles responded in a determined tone, not sounding as threatened at all.

"Sure, if you listen to me, I will keep my end of the bargain."

The kidnapper glanced at Shirley and smiled silently. Looking around, he realized how dusty the place was.
