“I used to know your dad before he disappeared,” the man said to a terrified Kelly.
“Me and him had what you might call unresolved issues. And you’re going to resolve them, unless you want to disappear like he did.”
Kelly tried to stand up to the man by warning him that Gary would deal with him.
But instead he forced Kelly to send a text but she put in a nod to Gary that she was in danger.

And back in the cellar the gangster revealed how he knew her dad.
“I was his business partner,” he said.
“Until he screwed me over. I lost everything because of him, and now you’re going to pay me back.”
He demanded £50,000 for her freedom - or he would kill her.
