Chapter 169: {PS-Bonus Chapter} The Plan
But just as he was about to ask, just to confirm, Jaden suddenly changed his expression, expressing his anger. "Do I need to explain to you anything when I tell you to do something? Hurry up and do it already! We don't have all day."
The guy Immediately responded, by turning around and leaving. He could not dare to disobey the instructions that he had been given. So, he immediately rushed out, to inform the others to come over.
'Well, it seems that the ability of the appearance shifting much does not involve the change in the habit. Even though it is true that I have taken the appearance of this person, together with his voice, still, my personality is completely different from his.
And it sure is quite difficult for me to play as a gangster. Nonetheless, I will just use the authority to cover it up.' Jaden thought to himself as he looked at the rest of the group that was left, after the scorpion tattooed guy left.
They were currently in an alley that was located between two buildings, directly opposite the apartment block that Ruby's family lived in.
This area did not have many people, especially at this moment considering that the most of the people living in this area had already gone to work. Additionally, this was a residential area, so, only a few people would pass by occasionally.
Still, since this was the eastern part of the city, when they noticed the group of people within this alleyway, none of them dared to approach them. All of them were extremely afraid that they might be targeted by this group of gangsters.
As for the idea of calling the police, none of them even thought about it. After all, what was the use? Not to mention that the police would definitely not come over, what did this group of people staying within the alleyway do? They had not done anything, and without evidence, it would be considered as slander, as long as they were reported to the police.
The rest of the group remained silent, not saying anything, while looking at Jaden who was standing in front of them.
A few minutes later, another group of people came over, being led by the tattooed guy. When they arrived, the tattooed guy took a step forward and said, "Boss, I have not found Clinton and Andrew. It's like they disappeared."
Jaden immediately thought about the two people that had accompanied the leader before. Since he had knocked them out, he had hidden them, which was impossible for this group to be able to find them, unless they searched thoroughly.
"Don't worry about them. I have given them a task to handle. They will be coming back later." Jaden stated.
Since Jaden had said so, the tattooed guy did not pursue the matter. Instead, he, together with the group of about 27 people, looked at Jaden, wanting to know what it was that he had gathered them here for.
But before Jaden could start speaking, one of them suddenly pointed towards the building opposite them and said, "Boss, they are leaving. They are carrying their luggage, it is obvious that they are planning to escape."
The entire group of gangsters was immediately restless. It seemed that they wanted to rush forward and deal with the family that was about to leave.
Jaden simply waved his hand at them and said, "You don't have to worry about them anymore. I have just received another instruction, we don't have to care much about them anymore. Instead, there is another task that we need to complete."
"Huh?" The entire group of gangsters was immediately dumbfounded after hearing that.
Despite not knowing much details about the reason why they had been asked to watch over this family, they understood that this was Ruby's family. A few of them were part of the group that was assigned to watch over Ruby, and so, they understood that second tiger was targeting Ruby.
And since that was the case, he had definitely planned to make sure that nobody from Ruby's family escaped. This was just to ensure that he managed to get Ruby.
But now, they were being told that they were supposed to stop watching over them? That was an impossibility, unless second tiger had changed his mind about it.
How could they not see that Ruby was among the other three that were getting inside a van? With the luggage that they were carrying, it was clear that they were not planning to come back anytime soon.
"Are you sure about that boss?" One of them asked.
"What do you think? Do you think that I don't love my life anymore? Now, stop thinking about this matter, and let's leave right now. We need to hurry and complete the mission that I have been given. Otherwise, you know the consequences." Jaden stated with a stern expression on his face.
The group of gangsters immediately gulped. They felt that the boss had changed quite a lot. He was quite an easygoing person, but right now, he was extremely strict with them.
So, none of them dared to say anything. Instead, they immediately turned around, and Jaden followed behind them. Well, initially, they wanted him to lead the way, but his glare immediately made them lead the way.
'What a joke! You want me to lead the way? Do I even know where we are supposed to go?' Jaden thought to himself as he followed behind the group.
Ruby on the other hand had already noticed the group of gangsters that was watching them. Her nerves suddenly tensed up. She did not know what was happening. Before, she had already noticed that there was a group of gangsters that was watching them, but she realized that there were only seven of them.
But now, there were definitely over 20 of them. She did not know where Jaden had gone to, but she understood that if this group of gangsters came over to attack, she would definitely not be able to defend against them.
This was not the first time that this group of gangsters had made a move against her family. Of course, her parents and her brother had tried to move away before, but they were blocked by this group of gangsters.
It was good that they did not try to resist. Otherwise, it was not impossible for them to be beaten up by this group of gangsters.
And now, looking at them, especially considering that all of them were looking over, she thought that they might make a move, so that they could prevent them from leaving.
So, she was quite anxious, as she looked around, hoping to see Jaden. But she did not see Jaden, no matter how much she looked around.
Additionally, something strange also happened. The group of gangsters, after looking at them for a while, it seemed that the leader of the group was talking to them, and a little while later, the entire group left.
This was an action that dumbfounded not only her, but her entire family as well. They were living in the eastern part of the city, and so, they understood that if a person was targeted by a gang, it was almost impossible for them to be able to escape.
"Do you think that they are playing tricks on us? Or do you think that they are planning to chase after us with a car?" Jake asked as he looked at the direction that the gangsters had left in.
"It doesn't matter. We have to leave as soon as possible. Only when you are inside the plane, will I be relieved." Ruby responded, as she put the bag that he was carrying inside the van, before she went for the driver's seat.
The rest of the family members entered the van, with Ruby's brother taking the passenger seat. With everything set, Ruby immediately began driving.
As for where Jaden was, she did not know, but still, that did not prevent her from leaving. After all, Jaden had told her that they had to leave, and not worry about the gangsters.
Perhaps even the weird movement of the gangsters was related to Jaden. So, with hope in her heart, she continued driving towards the direction of the airport.
The airport was located in the northern part of the city. It was quite a distance, and so, after moving for a while, they stopped at a gas station, and Ruby went ahead to fill the van's tank. After that, she drove towards the airport at full speed, well, the one that was allowed by the traffic rules.
And as they got further and further away from the eastern part of the city, and realizing that there was nobody coming after them, the family finally began calming down.
Ruby was also relieved. It seemed that Jaden had done something to make those gangsters give up on coming after them. Otherwise, she did not doubt that they would be hot on their tails, in case they had managed to miss stopping them from leaving the area where the apartment block that they were living in was located.
'After everything is over, I will have to thank the two of them. If not for Scarlet convincing Jaden to help, and Jaden willingly coming over to help thereafter, it would have been impossible for my family to be able to get out of this.' Ruby thought to herself, as she continued driving.
It was only a few seconds later that she remembered that she had not taken Jaden's contact number. But thinking about where to find Jaden, it was quite easy for her. She would just go and wait outside the Johnson residence, and Jaden will definitely come out or come over to enter the residence.
