Chapter 496: The Stranger’s Threat
Ella’s gaze dimmed. So, the real target... was her?
After all, kidnapping a child was much easier than abducting an adult. This wasn’t about money, which meant little Elias was likely not in immediate danger.
Taking a deep breath, Ella unconsciously typed a reply to the mysterious sender:
"Who are you? I want to see my son. What exactly do you want me to do?"
She was now certain that this was either a direct scheme against her or a ploy to lure her into a trap.
Regardless, she was determined to see Elias. Only then could she find a semblance of peace. Elias was far too young to escape on his own, but if she were there with him, the odds might change.
Ten minutes later, the reply arrived.
"You cannot tell anyone. Don’t think for a second that Eric can save both you and your son. If I find out you’ve leaked this email, then... prepare to receive your son’s corpse. Think carefully before you reply."
The sender’s arrogant tone made Ella want to smash her phone against the ground.
That bastard! She vowed that one day, she would make them regret everything, to the point they’d beg for death.
Meanwhile.
