There was silence on the other end of the line, and I held my breath hoping the man was smart enough to make the right decision. While we were still waiting for him to respond, the line went dead. Luke chuckled with an evil smirk on his face. I wondered what he was thinking because I was never going to let him hurt a child.
“Well, it seems you don’t mean much to your husband. All he cares about is his wealth. Anyway…” he stood, and I did the same. “Take them to the car, we are taking them with us since the man doesn’t want them. we will keep them.” okay, that was not so bad. He said nothing about hurting them just taking them.
It was going to scare him enough to act, I hoped. He and I walked out. “Tell your boss that I have taken his family. Tell him if he wants them back then he knows what he must do.” He told the guards. We got into the car. “Let’s get out of here before Olivia and Marcus arrive.” I agreed fully with that one.
Olivia would think I was a monster if she saw me doing something like that. she already thought of me as one, I didn’t want to give her the impression that I was an even bigger monster than she thought. “You still care about her, don’t you?” I was surprised by his question. Sure, I cared about Olivia, but he was the first to tell me to leave her alone.
Why was he interested now in knowing if I cared for her or not. “Why do you ask?” he chuckled. “If you didn’t care, you wouldn’t be here. You would have told me to deal with it myself, which I could have, I mean, I have all the manpower, and I don’t need you to be honest. I just wanted company.” Wow.
He was right though, I couldn’t dispute that, but to tell me to my face was something else. Just as we were halfway back Luke’s phone rang. “Yes,” he answered, and a smirk appeared on his face. “Put him on.” He said taking the phone off his ear then putting it on speaker.
“I know you took my family.” He said but Luke said nothing. “If you want this brat back unharmed, you will get Marcus to draft a contract giving me back what I had and there must be a clause in there that states that he will not take it away from me again. Once I get the confirmation from my lawyer that everything is done. I will bring the boy.”
He negotiated, at least that was better, we were now talking and that was a start. “I hear you but tell me something. What should I be doing with your family so long? I mean you did kidnap a child and took him halfway across the world. That cannot go unpunished even if you do bring back the boy you took unharmed.”
I didn’t like where that was going. “If you dare touch my family, I will….” Luke cut him short. “You will what? Please go on and tell me what you think you will do because I am very much interested in hearing it.” I wished I could punch the man in the face.
What kind of a father put material possessions instead of his family. Well, look at me being the pot calling the kettle black. I did the same thing he did and send my wife to jail for a moron. I should keep my mouth shut with this one even though I didn’t do it for possessions, actually, I think I was the worst compared to him.
“Just don’t touch my family man, I don’t know you and I don’t want to know but I have resources, and I am not afraid to use them.” Jesus! Was the man a moron. Could he see that he was at a disadvantage? Didn’t his people tell him the kind of a monster I was with?
“Listen here and listen well. I am not going to tell your nephew anything. You do it yourself. Also, if I don’t get that boy back by this evening. You will receive a finger from your daughter and if still don’t bring him back. You will receive a finger every hour until I get him back.” I cringed when I heard that.
I could imagine a child’s finger being cut off and how painful it would be for him. “You forget something important.” Luke laughed. “This is not a laughing matter, I too have something you want, and I can just as easily do what you are threatening to do to my daughter.”
