One day, when Walter returned home from work, he found his wife, Abby, overwhelmed with Logan’s cries. Despite her best efforts to calm him down, Logan continued to cry. Walter empathetically embraced Abby and asked her how long the crying had been going on.

Abby tearfully explained that she had tried everything – feeding, changing, bathing, and even taking Logan’s temperature. But nothing seemed to bring him any relief. This constant crying had been causing both of them a great deal of distress.

In search of a solution, Walter suggested checking Logan’s crib. To their surprise, they found a dictaphone and a note placed inside it. Walter pressed the stop button on the dictaphone, and the crying immediately ceased.

Confused and concerned, Abby asked Walter what he had found. Lost in his thoughts, Walter handed her the note. As she read it out loud, they realized the gravity of the situation.

“I warned you that you’d regret being rude to me. If you want to see your baby again, leave $200,000 in the luggage storage lockers near the pier. If you go to the police, you’ll never see him again.”

Abby was shocked and overwhelmed by the note. They began to wonder who could have kidnapped Logan and why. Walter recalled an incident at the maternity hospital where he had mistreated a janitor. Could it be him?

With a heavy heart, Walter suggested going to the police, hoping they could track down the janitor and bring Logan back safely. Abby hesitated, fearing that involving the police might endanger their son further. They decided to take a risk and trust the authorities.

As they parked their car near the police station, Walter received a message on his phone. It was a chilling threat, warning them not to involve the police if they wanted to see Logan alive. Faced with no other choice, they realized their only hope was to pay the ransom.

Walter rushed to the bank to withdraw the money, but Abby’s condition worsened. She fell sick and could not accompany him. Walter made the difficult decision to drive her home, knowing that time was of the essence.

Filled with worry and uncertainty, Walter paid the ransom and anxiously waited for news of Logan’s whereabouts. However, their hopes were shattered when they realized that Abby, the very person they thought was the victim, was behind the kidnapping.

Heartbroken, Walter confronted Abby, demanding to know the truth. Abby confessed that Logan was not Walter’s biological child and that she had orchestrated the entire scheme. She wanted to extort money from Walter, using Logan’s perceived illness as a ploy.

Devastated by Abby’s betrayal, Walter focused on retrieving Logan and ensuring his safety. Determined to bring his son back, Walter sought help from a doctor at the maternity hospital. With the doctor’s assistance, he convinced Abby to bring Logan to the hospital for urgent medical treatment.

As Abby arrived at the hospital with Logan, the police and FBI were waiting. They swiftly apprehended Abby and her accomplice, James. Walter, relieved to have Logan back in his arms, could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

However, in the midst of the chaos, Abby made one final attempt to hurt Walter. She cruelly revealed that Logan was not biologically related to him. Walter’s world shattered once again, but he remained resolute in his love for Logan.

With Logan back in his care, Walter vowed to be the best father he could be, even if it meant adopting him officially. Despite the pain and hardships they faced, Walter’s love for his son would always prevail.
