Charlotte wiped away her tears and anxiously looked at Drake Green. From the caution in his eyes, she knew that this email was ninety percent about her father.
She reached out hurriedly to click on it but was stopped by Drake, who opened the email one step ahead of her.
"Charlotte, do you see? Dad knows he's wrong. Dad shouldn't have left you. Will you save Dad, please? Once I'm saved, I'll come back to see you, and from now on, we'll never be apart again."
The video in the email showed her father battered and bruised, begging his daughter pleadingly to save him, in a state of misery and destitution as if he had gone through great torment.
"Charlotte, I can't stand it anymore. They torture me every day with various methods, and as long as they don't get the money, they won't let up on me for a day. Charlotte, Dad knows your uncle might think I'm not worth saving, so he definitely won't pay the ransom, but I'm your dad, you wouldn't just stand by and watch me die, would you?"
