Chapter 623
Todd let out a painful cry, and two strong men pressed his shoulders, making him unable to move.
"The dogs out there are more clever than you. At least they know how to grab some bones." Mr. Sage twisted his toes and stomped on Todd's hands.
Mr. Sage's expression was as if he was casually wringing out a cigarette butt that was thrown on the ground.
Mr. Sage turned around and asked again, "Is it connected?"
"It's connected." Mr. Sage's underling was next to him, holding a laptop. He adjusted the camera on the laptop and zoomed in.
After he aimed the laptop's rear camera at Todd, he immediately placed it on the table.
Mr. Sage retracted his foot. He raised his eyebrows and casually said, "Let'sbegin."
Mr. Sage sat back in his seat like an audience as though he was ready to watch a show.
He was no longer interested in communicating with such idiots because he figured that it was a waste of time.
Todd gritted his teeth. He saw that his hands were finally freed. But, before he could move his joints, goosebumps suddenly appeared all over his body. Fear began to spread endlessly in his heart.
'What are they going to do to me?' Todd thought.
Todd had been hanging around outside for many years, and he could vaguely feel what the other party wanted to do, but he had been in denial.
Todd did not dare to think that such a thing would happen to him one day!
Todd stared at Mr. Sage closely. He could not care much about the pain in his hands. He supported himself up and struggled to crawl to Mr. Sage's legs like a lingering beast begging for his life to be spared.
"Don't worry, I won't take your life." Mr. Sage's lips curled up, and he grinned.
Then, Todd was dragged back to his original position by the big men on both sides.
On the other side of the screen, Michael breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his son reappear on the screen.
Michael turned his computer's brightness to the max, and only then did he see his son's face. It was as if his son had been abused, and he felt a dull pain in his heart!
"Todd!
"What did you do to my son? Didn't I say I will get you the money?! " Michael shouted angrily and slammed on his table.
Michale was worried about how he could get the money to save his son. Still, he did not expect the other party to make an international video call, and he would witness this scene.
"Dad, help! Please help me, Dad!" Todd cried loudly when he heard his father's words.
The familiar voice in the room made Todd seem as though he had found his hope in this place where he could not even see his fingers. "Dad!!!
"I'll save you, Todd. I'll talk to them. We'll talk this through. Just give me some time. I'll definitely get the money to save you!"
No matter how disappointing Todd was to Michael, Todd was still Michael's son, who Michael watched as Todd grew up and a child of the Andersons in Northfolk.
Michael had never seen Todd speak so low-pitched and humble before.
What Michael had witnessed made him uncomfortable and aching in the heart.
