Joshua hurriedly rushed to the villa, and the sharp, ear-piercing sound that came out of the car in a flash startled the people sitting in the living room awake.
Joshua hurriedly walked into the living room and saw the red - eyed Elizabeth. He anxiously walked over, extended his hand and pulled her into his embrace to comfort her, "Alright, don't be afraid, I'll have my brother find someone to settle this matter. The police are also looking for your aunt at all costs. I'm sure she'll be OK."
"I feel that Bart is the one who did this, his target is me, it's a pity that he was unable to find me, he just wanted to use my aunt to threaten me, Joshua, do you have any way to let me talk to Bart on the phone? I just want to ask..."
"If he did, do you think he would admit it on the phone? Eliza, calm down, Bart will not be so stupid as to admit it, if you call him, it will be equivalent to exposing your whereabouts, he will immediately send someone over to cause you trouble, believe me, as long as you do not appear, your aunt will be safe, his goal is for you, he does not need to be accused of murder." Joshua helped her analyze this matter in detail, hoping that she would be able to take it.
Elizabeth had only thought of this after she lost her mind, but hearing Joshua's words, she felt that it made sense.
Just then, Barry Jones's phone call went through to Cathy's phone.
Cathy glanced at it, and then gave it to Elizabeth: "It should be for you. It's the number you just dialed out."
Elizabeth hurriedly took her phone over to answer the call, when she heard Barry Jones's voice from the other side, "Elizabeth, where are you? Can you come home for a bit? If you're thinking about your aunt's life, you should come back and wait for news with us."
"Did the kidnappers send you a message? Tell me, I will think of a way to save Aunt!" Elizabeth's expression tensed up, and asked anxiously.
"Elizabeth, you are truly unfilial. Do you not dare to return to your home? It was a waste for your aunt to think of you every day." Barry Jones wanted to use his provocation to trick her into going home.
"Did you all not welcome me?" Elizabeth ridiculed.
"Just now the police came to ask for information. If you came back, you can cooperate with the police in their investigation. Elizabeth, where are you, still overseas?" Barry Jones couldn't find a reasonable reason for her to go back.
"Don't worry about where I am. If you have any recent developments with Aunt, tell me and I'll get someone to help." Elizabeth did not want to see the Jones either.
"The kidnapper just called. He said that if you don't appear within a day, they will kill Lily. Their target is you. Are you really going to watch your aunt die for you? Elizabeth, aren't you a filial daughter? If you still have a conscience, you should take your life and trade it for your aunt's, understand?" Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, Barry Jones could only mock her.
Elizabeth trembled. Just as she had expected, the other party was looking for her, and her aunt was only a substitute.
"What else did he say?" Elizabeth's voice was broken as she pretended to be calm and asked.
"He didn't say anything more. Think about it carefully. Your aunt has two underage children. Do you really have the heart to see her die for you?" After Barry finished speaking, he immediately hung up the phone.
Elizabeth only felt her vision darken, and she started to stagger. Joshua reached out, grabbed her, and held her in his embrace, then asked softly: "Who called you? What did he say?"
