He believed the caller would do unimaginable and terrible things to his family.
Victor immediately pleaded
"No, no, I won't run. Please don't hurt Tracy and the baby. They have nothing to do with what I did."
"You have three minutes to come out with the check," Henry said.
"Okay, okay, I'm coming out. I promise I won't run." Hearing that the caller would spare his wife and child, Victor kept thanking him.
Three minutes.
This time was extremely precious to him now.
Victor hurried to the bedroom, opened the closet's panel, revealing a small space where he kept a metal box. He opened the box, which contained two stacks of cash, a bankbook, and a house deed.
He took out the last $200 he had left and put it in the box. Victor quickly went to the kitchen, standing in front of Tracy.
Tracy was stunned to see her husband holding a box of money, "What's going on, Victor? Where did you get so much money?"
