Chapter 349 The Truth About the Baby

Business was business.

Since he was going to negotiate with Chris in his company’s name, it would be best to do it through official channels.

After that, he called Jenny to say that the two of them had to discuss the future development of the company that night.

Jenny pooh poohed at him over the phone, before she hung up, giggling.

Luke scratched his head. I’m being serious here. What’s with this attitude? I’m going to show you the fury of a CEO tonight.

After he did all that, Luke began to make dinner.

They had gotten off work early, and he had more time today.

More importantly, until he could determine what Mr. Smith had done, it was best to lie low.

When he was searching for suspicious activity online with the mini-program he had created, he received a notification on his laptop.

Looking at the notification, Luke opened a forum message. After decoding the message, Luke was lost for words.

Mr. Smith was truly a lunatic.

The information which Smith sent to the contact number which Luke had left him had been encrypted and forwarded online as a nonsensical post on a major forum.

The content wasn’t very complicated, but it was quite thrilling, and divulged the details about baby Oliver.

That night, Smith had run into a young pregnant woman who was carrying a baby. He had killed more than twenty shooters who came after her, but the woman still died, and Smith could only leave with the baby.

To his surprise, nothing about the gunfight appeared on the news, and it seemed that the media hadn’t caught wind of it at all.

At noon the next day, while passing by Elsworth Park, he thought about using a stranger to get the baby sent to an orphanage.

That was when the gunfight which Luke got caught up in burst out. Unwilling to see the baby fall victim to the shooters, Smith took him away again.

After that, Smith ran into another group of killers, which struck him as even stranger.

That night, thanks to Luke’s help from the dark, Smith killed all the shooters who attacked his temporary shelter.

Following a lead, he went to the second floor of the rock n’ roll bar, only to discover that it was a secret surrogacy clinic, and that many men and women had died there.

The pregnant woman whom he had tried to save was precisely a survivor from this place.

After the battle, Smith looked for leads in several places, and finally discovered where the bearded man and the men in black had come from.

The bearded man worked for Hammerson Defense, and the men in black suits were part of Henry Elsworth’s security force.

Henry Elsworth had leukemia, and needed a bone marrow transplant.

Who knew if he had talked to his son or his brothers at all, or if there wasn’t a match, but eventually, Henry decided to create a matching bone marrow for himself with a newborn baby through surrogacy. The bearded man and Hammerson Defense learned of this. They wanted Henry to die, so they attacked the rock n’ roll bar, and killed the women and security guards there.

Henry Elsworth’s condition might deteriorate at any point, and his only hope was the baby.

Smith reached out to him, and boarded the councilor’s private plane.

But after the plane took off, he discovered that Henry Elsworth had reached a compromise with Hammerson and sold Smith out.

Smith could only counterattack. He grabbed Henry, and shot the councilor in the end, before he jumped out of the private plane. That was the reason for the falling bodies over the bowling alley.

Luke sucked in a sharp breath of air when he read this.

Smith seemed even tougher than Detective John!

Detective John was brutal when it came to robbers, but Smith wasn’t the least bit lenient even when it came to big shots.

If it were Luke, he wouldn’t be so unbending.

He was an upstanding detective, after all, and if he ran into a big shot like Henry... he would definitely change his face first before he killed the man.

Luke rejoiced that it was Mr. Smith and not him who had clashed with Henry Elsworth, Hammerson and the bearded man.

Hammerson and the bearded man had also disappeared from the face of the earth.

As a super assassin with all that cash, Mr. Smith could hide anywhere in the world without needing to show his face for years.

As Luke sipped his tea and occasionally checked the meat on the grill, he went over everything repeatedly in his mind to ensure that he hadn’t left any traces behind.

He was finally sure that he hadn’t. The bag of cash was from Taha’s safe back in Paris, which couldn’t be tied back to Luke.

The guns he had given Smith were from Damon and his daughter, and had always been stashed in that basement.

He had also personally modified the Glock which he had tossed to Smith at the end, and there were no records of it.

The card that Smith had gotten was one of Luke’s secret backup contacts; there was nothing but a number on it.

It seemed like he had taken the card out of his pocket, but he had actually extracted it from his inventory. He had even been wearing gloves when he tossed Smith the card.

The truly big issue was that Smith had killed Henry Elsworth.

However, Luke had been standing in front of the bowling alley with his colleagues when Henry’s plane crashed. So, all was right with the world!

Reaching that conclusion, Luke called out with a smile, “Selina, try the roast meat.”

Selina had just finished her shower. She came out in her bathrobe.

She cut a slice of the meat and tasted it, then nodded. “It tastes fine, but it could do with a bit more time on the grill.”

She then took off the bathrobe to reveal the bikini she was wearing underneath, and jumped into their big “bathtub” in the backyard.

She had a lot of training to do that night, so she had to seize the chance to soak in the sun.

At four in the afternoon, Elsa called Luke “Where are you?”

Adjusted his mindset, Luke made himself sound exhausted. “I just got home from working a case.”Elsa said, “Wait for me at home. I’ve got something for you.” Luke: “What?”

Elsa said, “...Why do I feel that you suddenly sound a lot more energetic?”

Luke immediately lowered his voice. “No, I was just a little... surprised.”

Elsa snorted and said, “Whatever. There’s something I need to talk to you about face to face.”

Luke put his phone down and scratched his head.

Why did Elsa suddenly want to come over? Although she knew his address, she had never visited him.

In her own words, there was no need for her to visit him when they saw each other at work every day.

Luke thought that made sense. After all, his boss hardly spent time at home, except to sleep.
