“Bah!” Hamish disdained the thought and grew increasingly worried. “Should I send someone to
look for him?
“Wait a minute.” Bonnie looked at her phone and saw someone was calling her. She checked it and
saw that it was Benedict.
“Benny’s calling me now.” Then, she answered his call but heard a stranger’s voice instead of her
brother’s.
“Are you Benedict’s sister?” The stranger sounded ominous. Things were looking grim for her Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
brother.
“Who are you? Why do you have my brother’s phone? Where is he?”
“Do you have to ask? I’m a kidnapper, of course! I have your brother. We’ll slaughter him if you call the police. You guys will never see each other again if you do anything stupid.” The stranger’s voice was vicious and threatening.
Bonnie’s eyes grew cold as she said, “I will hunt you down if anything happens to my brother. I’ll even venture to the ends of the earth to track you down and make you regret messing with me and my brother.”
She opened her laptop as she spoke and typed away at the keyboard, trying to hone in on her brother’s location through the phone’s GPS.

tone.
Bonnie used to help the police department make breakthroughs in many convoluted cases. So, she

The kidnapper was sitting on a chair as he glanced at Flynn and said, “She wants to hear Benedict’s voice, Mr. Flynn. Otherwise, she won’t believe us.”
“She’s just despicable!” Flynn gritted his teeth and snarled. “Do it.”
“All right, Mr. Flynn.” The kidnapper ripped off the tape on Benedict’s mouth.
“Don’t come, Bonnie! It’s a trap! Don’t-“Before he could finish, the kidnapper kicked him to the floor and resealed his mouth with another tape.
“Mmph… Mmph…” Benedict’s eyes reddened. He kept struggling to break free, but the kidnapper had tied him up too tightly.
Bonnie could hear everything clearly over the phone. They were beating up Benedict. A moment later, a deadly air of malice rose around her. She was enraged. Simultaneously, she honed in on their location and muttered, “I’ll be there in no time.”
She hung up the phone and called Jim at once.
