Chapter 745 If Something Happens to Her
The bullet flew past Jenny as she dodged the shot, leaping off the cliff behind her.
There was a river she would land into if she fell; she had noticed it before she was caught.
Still, it was her last resort. That’s why she’d tried to negotiate with the mercenaries.
The blonde mere went to the edge of the cliff, unable to spot Jenny anywhere from this height. One of his men went up to him and asked in a foreign language, “What now, boss?’
“Find her, dead or alive!” the man barked out an order.
He had not once failed a single mission undertaken since he started working as a mercenary. He couldn’t fail now. He’d find this woman whether she was dead or still breathing.
The men swiftly separated into groups, all in search of Jenny.
Meanwhile, Graham was on his way with his men after getting Gilbert’s call. Being unable to locate Jenny anywhere in the city led him to conclude that she was in danger. Luckily he had a vast network of eyes and ears in the city, which quickly reported that Jenny had been abducted into the woods nearby.
Of course, the gunshot wound in Jenny’s arm was increasingly concerning.
Everyone soon gathered where Jenny had been taken away; even Gilbert and his friend were there. Graham didn’t bother asking who they were; he just ordered his men to search for his daughter in the mountains.
Meanwhile, Gilbert was looking for clues from Jenny’s overturned car.
“Aren’t you joining the search party?” his friend asked, to which Gilbert nodded.
“Course I am.”
He turned to head into the forest, but was distracted by a loud ringtone from behind him. Turning around to look led him to find it was coming from Jenny’s car. It was most likely Jenny’s phone.
No wonder she hadn’t picked up the call.
Gilbert swiftly went to retrieve it. His eyes darkened the instant he saw the CallerID.
“What took you so long?” Alec shot out the moment the call was answered. He had started to panic after his call had gone unanswered for so long.
Before Gilbert could answer, Alec spoke up again, this time calmer. ‘What did you call me for?”
“Jenny called you? When?” Gilbert asked, frowning.
“Who are you?” Alec asked. It was a stranger’s voice he heard, yet familiar.
“What did she say to you in the call?’ Gilbert continued asking.
As if only realizing that Jenny’s phone was now in someone else’s hands, he said, ’I didn’t pick up. I’ve been busy.’
“Damn you, Alec Faust!” Gilbert roared into the phone. Jenny must’ve called Alec’s number to ask for his help. If the man had picked up, she might not have been abducted.
“What happened to her?” Alec asked sternly.
Unfortunately for him, Gilbert wasn’t in the mood to entertain him. “If something happens to Jenny, I’m coming for your fucking neck, you piece of shit!” He then hung up the call and blocked Alec’s number.
