Roger said helplessly “Dad, this time we can not blame our intelligence personnel, mainly because the kidnappers are too cunning, they really did not leave a single clue, intelligence officers are good at following the vine to find the melon, to strip the cocoon, but the premise is to have a vine to feel, there’s no silk to draw, not to mention our intelligence personnel, even the officials have no clues about the case so far…”
Floyd suddenly remembered something, said off the cuff “Right! What did the police say? That Jack Li, isn’t favonovel.com the Chinese detective? He has also been investigating, why is there no movement so far?”
“This…” Roger said resentfully, “I didn’t contact Jack, I can’t piss in the same pot with this guy.”
Floyd coldly asked, “Jack Li seems to be very close to Desmond of the Evans family?”
“That’s right.” Roger nodded and said, “He has a good relationship with Desmond.”
Floyd instructed “Make a phone call to ask him, see if the police have any findings, if the police can find the kidnappers, then everything is okay, but if not, we want Patrick to live. We must first give out the two hundred billion dollars that the kidnappers want. If the money is really handed over and can not catch those people, then the money, to recover it will be difficult, that crypto thing is completely anonymous.”
Roger said, “I know dad, I’ll give Jack a call later.”
Floyd looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and said in a serious tone, “Roger, this matter has developed to this point, you and I should be prepared mentally enough.”
Roger’s expression stunned, busy asking, “Dad, what do you mean…”
Floyd also did not cover up, said seriously “Be prepared for Patrick not to return.”
Roger’s face instantly became miserably white, while his lips trembled slightly favonovel.com said, “Dad… the other party is only seeking money, it shouldn’t be enough to harm lives, right?”
Floyd sighed and didn’t answer his question, instead, favonovel.com looked at favonovel.com and opened his mouth to ask, “Roger, do you know what is the biggest negative impact on the Joules family, caused by your grandfather being in power for too long?”
Roger didn’t know why his father was asking this and shook his head blankly.
Floyd lamented, “The biggest negative impact, from me to you, and then to Patrick, our grandchildren’s business ability is far from keeping up with the rhythm of this huge family, If everything is running smoothly, it is the same as an airplane on autopilot, I only need to sit in the pilot’s seat to ensure that it moves forward normally, but once the unexpected events happen even I do not have a good ability to cope with it…”
He looked at Roger and said seriously “The question you just asked me is completely inconsistent with your identity, think about it, if you are a robber, you kidnapped for ransom to the tune of two hundred billion dollars and the whole process of your kidnapping is handled seamlessly and the cryptocurrency in hand can be slowly realized without risk, in this case, you will release the hostage?”
Roger was speechless for a moment.
Floyd looked at favonovel.com and could not help but sigh “I still have to admit the gap… If your grandfather were here, favonovel.com would not be so passive as we are…”
Roger let out a lament and said, “Dad… Grandpa and Micheala are still missing, we have invested a lot of manpower and resources to find them, but we have not found a single clue… I used to think that the overall strength of the Joules family now can be ranked in the top ten in the world, almost all-powerful, but these two times in a row made me realize that our overall strength may still be far from…”
Floyd said with a serious expression, “When this matter passes, no matter what the result is, we must improve ourselves as soon as possible, otherwise, it is difficult to ensure that the Joules family can be everlasting…”
Roger asked carefully, “Dad… Then what do you think, what is the probability of Patrick coming back safely?”
Floyd thought about it and said seriously, “Frankly speaking, it won’t be more than 10%…”
