Bang! At this time, the door was pushed open and a man who was not burly but still somehow looked sturdy came in. His pants and shoes were already wet. Upon entering, he respectfully stood in front of Kinley, knelt on one knee, and said, “Master Kinley, something went wrong. Dan escaped with that little girl.” “What?!” Hearing this, Sidney was shocked and could not help but exclaim. His face looked very tense and his breathing became rapid! Kinley still maintained his composure and asked, “What happened?” The man said, “Our men arrived at the hotel and dealt with three of them. Dan drove away and his car later overturned, sending it crashing down the mountain road. I’ve already sent our men down to search for them but they couldn’t find anyone. There were only bloodstains. I presume he’s not dead but is hiding in the forest with the little girl.” “Why aren’t you looking for them, then?” Sidney flew into a rage and kicked him. The man fell to the ground without any com
This night seemed to stretch on endlessly. In the luxurious suite, Chester was sitting on the sofa and sipping on warm tea. He would check the documents in his hands from time to time. At this time, a subordinate walked in through the door and said respectfully, “Master Ludwig, Kinley Wes requests to see you.” Chester frowned slightly before stretching. He then said with a smile, “Let him in.” After a while, Kinley appeared in the suite with a walking cane while smiling. He respectfully greeted, “Master Ludwig.” Chester smiled, motioned Kinley to sit down, and said, “I just brewed a pot of tea. Try it.” Kinley did not decline the hospitality. He picked up the cup, took a sip, and exclaimed, “Good brew, fragrant and citrusy. It must be the specialty Earl Grey tea of Cloudside.” “Oh, are you aware of this special blend too?” Chester asked with a laugh. “Haha, to tell you the truth, I visited Cloudside a few years ago and stayed here to recuperate for a while. Only the Ear
Chester raised his hand and said, “No need. For now, the old man won’t dare to do anything to me yet. Whether his Wes family can survive or not is still up to me. You just need to get more people to keep a close eye on the movements of the Lambert family and the Wes family.” “Understood, Master Ludwig,” the jacketed man responded. Then, Chester’s expression changed. He glanced at the photos on top of the table and said, “Also, send some people to Serene Town to check on things. I want to confirm that these four charred bodies belong to Dan and his men!” The jacketed man looked at the photos and said with a nod, “Understood.” The scene shifted to Kinley. When he returned to the suite, Sidney ran over in a hurry. While supporting his father, he asked anxiously, “Dad, how did things go? Did Chester suspect anything?” Kinley sat down, took a few breaths to calm his emotions, and said, “I’m afraid he’s suspicious. Quickly notify the men in Serene Town and ask them to move as soon
All of them were comrades and this reunion was a very emotional one. When this team appeared in the Lambert family’s hall, Nigel shuddered. From their outfits, it was not difficult to guess that these people were the warriors guarding the borders of the country! Such a group of people had suddenly appeared in the Lambert family. By the looks of it, they were also on very good terms with Philip. In a flash, Nigel could guess most of it. His respect for Philip intensified! Philip Clarke was really not an ordinary person! The group of people just stood there while the person in charge spoke to Philip. “Teacher already knew about it and sent us here to support you.” The man in the lead was called Charlie Hash and his position in the Dragon Warriors was not low. His skills and experience were definitely at the forefront! Even if Josh Clancy fought with him, he would lose. Philip nodded and motioned for them to sit down and rest. It was pretty tiring to stand and talk. “C
His son had gone out for work and died in a car accident last year. Therefore, only this poor couple was left in the household. “Young man, your injury is serious and the little girl also has a high fever. Are you sure you don’t want to go to the hospital?” The old man asked anxiously. Dan shook his head and thanked him. Then, he took out a few wet bills, handed them to the old man, and said, “Can I ask you to invite the village doctor over?” The old man did not take the money but said, “I’ll go now.” As soon as he left the room, his wife grabbed him and lowered her voice while pointing to the room, saying, “Old Man, don't you think he's strange? Why don’t we call the police?” The old man also took a few glances, his emotions complicated. Dan had explained earlier that his car flipped so he walked to the village. He had also said to wait until dawn. He would call someone to deal with this matter then. “Forget it, he doesn't look like a bad guy. Besides, it’s the middl
Hearing this, Sidney was taken aback for a moment. There was a faint sneer at the corner of his mouth as he said, “Dad, are you trying to test Philip?” Kinley smiled without saying anything and looked out the window as the rain gradually stopped. A flickering sneer appeared on his aged face as he said, “Of course, we must test him. The Wes family is in this state because of him! We should get an indication from him this time and see whether dignity or his daughter is more important to him.” “Dad, how many people are we going to bring there this time? The Lambert family’s house is not a good place. Do I need to arrange for people to follow us?” Sidney asked. It was not without reason for him to be worried. After all, the Lambert family in Cloudside was like the royal family. Their home was heavily guarded! Besides, they were going to face Philip Clarke, the young man who caused the Wes family their downfall! Kinley pondered for a moment before saying, “Bring some. Just pic
Terrifying! As if he had guessed what was on Sidney’s mind, Kinley added, “These people should be here to protect Philip.” Hearing this, Sidney frowned as he recalled the armband that Philip had taken out that day! Afterward, his father had explained to him the special significance of that armband! In the territory, it was a first-class honor! No wonder there were people from the military corps standing guard here. Not long after, the bodyguard from before quickly walked out and said to Kinley, “Master Lambert invites the both of you in.” After that, Kinley thanked him and stepped inside with Sidney. “Sorry, Master Lambert only extended his invitation to two people. These bodyguards can’t go in.” The Lambert family's bodyguards stopped the four elite bodyguards in suits behind Kinley. The atmosphere instantly became tense. Kinley smiled and motioned for them to stay outside and wait. Soon, the two arrived at the main hall of the Lambert family’s mansion. At th
Kinley smiled and said, “Master Lambert, you think too highly of us. We won’t take this money. We just want to tell Young Master Clarke what we know in person.” Nigel frowned. After some confirmation, he walked aside, dialed Philip’s number, and said respectfully, “Young Master Clarke, someone wants to see you. He says he has clues about Miss Clarke.” Philip was outside. After receiving this call, his eyes went cold as he asked, “Who is the other party?” Nigel replied, “The other party is Kinley Wes and Sidney Wes. They’re not from Cloudside. They should be—” “I got it. I’ll return immediately!” Philip ended the call as a trace of complex emotions appeared in his eyes. Kinley Wes and Sidney Wes! Why had they appeared here? By right, these two people should have been arrested. Now, the other party was actually here and claiming they had clues about Mila. Something fishy must be going on. Philip was very puzzled. He asked the driver to turn around and rush back to t
