Chapter 747: Chapter 749 Paul Seeks Abel’s Help

Adam and his team traveled through the town before arriving back at the mountain villa with their hostage. He locked Flynn in the basement, despite the fact that he was bleeding heavily and barely alive.

The bodyguard splashed cold water on Flynn to wake him up. They then recorded a quick conversation with him.

“Are you Paul Murphy’s son, Flynn Murphy?”

“I’m Flynn. Who are you?”

“You don’t need to worry about that. Just wait patiently for your father to pay the ransom.”

“I’m bleeding, and my head hurts. I need to see a doctor.”

“Don’t worry, you won’t die anytime soon!”

After the bodyguard recorded the conversation, he handed the phone to Adam.

Adam called Paul with a burner. He stated, “I’ve got your son. I want 10 million.”

Paul was speechless and in a state of shock when he heard this.

Adam threatened, “I’ll kill him if I don’t have the money in my account in three days!”

Paul finally responded and yelled, “Wait! What did you just say? You’ve got my son? Who are you?”

Adam played the recording for Paul and stated, “You don’t need to know who I am. Is this your son?”

Paul yelled frantically from the other end of the phone, “Flynn! Who kidnapped you? Quick, tell me!”

Adam stopped playing the recording, and he said, “I’ll give you the number of a bank account. You can transfer the money directly to that account.”

Paul exclaimed, “But you have to guarantee my son’s safety! You won’t receive a single cent if anything happens to him.”

Adam replied, “I don’t want his life; I just want money. It’s an account from abroad. So chop–chop and transfer the funds to me!”

Paul said, “Give me the account number! I’ll send you ten million dollars right away. Where should I pick up my son?”

Adam said, “I’ll let him go once the money is in the account. You don’t have to worry about that!”

Paul objected, “No way! There’s no deal, unless we meet and you get the money, while I get my son.”

Adam yelled angrily, “You only have one hour! You’ll be picking up your son’s corpse if you refuse to do it.”

Adam immediately turned the phone off and took out the SIM card after sending the account number.

On the other end, Paul was in a panic.

10 million was nothing compared to his son’s life, but what would he do if he transferred the money and his son never came home? Paul was in Altney at this time, whereas his son was in Struyria. He could not reach Flynn.

Paul gave it some thought and nervously dialed Abel’s number.

Abel frowned when the call came in, but he still answered it quickly. Abel said, “Mr. Murphy?”

Paul spoke gravely, “Mr. Abel, I need a favor from you!”

Abel thought Paul was pleading with him on behalf of Evelyn. His demeanor darkened, and he said sternly, “Your daughter brought this on herself. Nobody can help her.

Paul clarified, “It’s not about my daughter. I know Evelyn is a disgrace, and I’m ashamed to bring up her issues with you.”

Abel asked, “Then, what’s the matter? I’ve already let you off the hook in terms of business.”

Paul explained, “It has to do with my son, Flynn. I received a call saying he had been kidnapped and his life is in danger.”

“What? Who kidnapped Flynn?” Abel furrowed his brow and asked.

Paul said, “I don’t know yet. I’m in Altney.”

“What do you want me to do?” Abel asked.

Paul said, “The kidnappers want me to transfer 10 million dollars to an account, but I haven’t seen my son. If I send that money, I’m worried he won’t come home to me.”

Abel said, “Hmm, I get what you mean. I can help you pick him up. Where are they?”

Paul said, “The kidnappers didn’t specify a location, that’s why I’m worried sick. Money isn’t the problem. The most important thing is whether I can get Flynn back!”

Abel replied, “In this case, you should check who Flynn was in contact with before he was abducted.”

Paul said, “Well…”

Abel reproached, “Stop dilly–dallying! Do it now!”

Paul agreed, saying, “Alright, Mr. Abel, give me a minute.”

After he hung up the phone, Paul asked his assistant to look up Flynn’s phone records. They discovered Flynn had received incoming and outgoing calls from Evelyn. Surprisingly, Flynn had made dozens of calls to Evelyn! However, all of the outgoing calls went unanswered.

Paul felt something was off and immediately made another call to Abel
