Adriana, the daughter of Mr. Benjamín, the owner of the vineyard, went for a walk every morning, she walked through the field planted with different types of grapes, testing the ripeness of the fruits.
She was in love with the 4,500 hectares of cultivated land, she participated in different tasks in the winemaking process since she was very young. Every day, during her tour, she talked to the workers and they all loved her very much, they called her " La Patrona.
One morning, around 10, Mr. Benjamin asked for his daughter, and at that time she was back from her daily walks and was always at the plant or in the warehouses, she had been looking for her for a while and could not find her. Her horse was in the stable and the stable manager said that he had not seen her that day. Everyone started looking for her, they walked through the vineyard for hours, night came
And Mr. Benjamín is already desperate, many hours had passed and he had no news of his daughter, the anguish was contributing more and more to him until at 10:00 pm he received a call from an unknown number, fortunately he was accompanied by some relatives and workers.
When answering, he was left without pronouncing a word and with a scared face that made everyone present think that something terrible had happened, to which Mr. Benjamin, after taking a breath, replied that he only wanted to hear the voice of his daughter. However, this was not possible and the call was cut off.
Those present immediately asked Mr. Benjamin who had called and what they had told him, to which he with a trembling voice told them that Adriana had been kidnapped and they were asking for half a million dollars in cash for her release
Everyone was very surprised since it was a very high sum of money, so they told mr. Benjamín to calm down and that he will think with a cool head so that he will make the right decision and will be able to negotiate with the kidnappers without putting his daughter's life at risk.
So two hours later, when he received another call from the kidnappers, he told them that despite having that 4,500-hectare vineyard, the business over the last year had not been so profitable and that that amount was impossible to have, much less with so much urgency So he asked them to consider a more accessible sum both for them and for the one who only wanted to recover his daughter safe and sound.
So the kidnappers agreed that it would be $200,000 and that they make the exchange in 24 hours and that he would not make the mistake of notifying the police because otherwise he would have to invest his money in a wake for his daughter.
so mr. Benjamín did everything possible to get that amount of money in less than 24 hours, managing to collect all the savings he had and asked some friends for a loan who doubt it contributed what was within their reach to complete the amount of Adriana's ransom .
That day, at 6:00 pm, they called to give him the address of the place where the exchange would take place, and they gave a series of instructions to confirm that there would be no police intervention and to carry out the exchange.
so mr. Very nervous Benjamin followed each of the instructions and showed up at 9:00 pm at the scheduled address. It was an abandoned shed on the outskirts of the city where they lived, two men showed up there with Adriana and the exchange took place without any inconvenience.
The excitement and nervousness of Benjamin and his daughter exploded when the kidnappers left the place, thank God Adriana had not been physically mistreated and returned to the arms of her father who thought he would never see her again.
So Adriana returned home and her father took it upon himself to hire a security company to take care of his daughter and her properties.
For her part, Adriana returned to the vineyard and all the day laborers and other workers welcomed her with great affection and made themselves available to double production and help Mr. Benjamin pay off the debt he had acquired to pay for his release.
