Bab 499: The Decision

Beneath the video was a chilling message: 

"October 22nd. If you fail to show up at the location I've specified, your sweet little angel will become the next child to permanently disappear. Don't test my patience. I imagine if you saw the bloody scene, you'd be utterly devastated. In truth, I'd quite enjoy seeing that unfold..."

Ella's hands trembled slightly, as if an invisible force was squeezing the air out of her lungs, making it hard for her to breathe. 

Would that person really harm Elias? She couldn't risk gambling on that. 

Kidnappers have always been ruthless; no one would expect kindness from such people. Ella wasn't about to stake her son's life in a wager against this mysterious man. 

But if she went, what if she fell right into their trap? Yet, the fact that he had sent a message to her indicated that he knew Elias's whereabouts. 

No clue could be ignored.
