"Connor, if you dare to harm Aida in any way, I will never let you off!" Albert exclaimed anxiously upon hearing Connor's words.
"Didn't you say something similar when I broke into the secret room of your Collier family? Even if I hadn't kidnapped Miss Aida, you probably wouldn't let me go. So, your threats don't work on me," Connor replied calmly.
Albert looked momentarily stunned, then asked in a low voice, "Just state your conditions; I don't have the patience for this."
"Alright, since you're so eager, I won't waste any more time. I recently acquired a piece of land in Yarlford, and what I lack now is funds. So, as long as you give me the money, I can release Aida!" Connor knew that asking for anything else from Albert was futile. His main goal was to help her clear her name, and asking for money was the simplest method.
"Money..." Albert sneered and then asked, "How much do you want?"
