"President, the abductors have contacted the Ashford Family and demanded that they pay the ransom before 3 AM. Otherwise, they'll kill Miss Ashford! Due to the fact that the phone call lasted less than thirty seconds, the reception signal we got was unclear and we couldn't find their exact location.
Lucas rubbed his throbbing head and barked. "Dimwits!"
If they don't locate the abductors before the ransom is over, are they going to wait until the ransom is paid? I knew I couldn't count on them.
It was the first time that Daniel ever heard him berate someone like that.
Lucas questioned, "How are things on their major's side?"
"The major has already analyzed the information that we gave the military and she's on her way to the locations. We can't predict if she'll reach there before the handover of the ransom, however."
Lucas heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Good."
Lucas closed his eyes and leaned back against the seat. "How long more will we take to reach the village?"
