"Why aren’t we following them?" Gigi, who was fiddling with her tablet, suddenly turned her gaze and asked anxiously, "Hailey is still in the hands of the bad guys!"
"Mr. Kingston called." Jerry Garcia turned the car around and explained to her, "His team has already thought of a rescue strategy. I just need to ensure your safety now."
Gigi watched as their car drove in the opposite direction of the kidnappers’ vehicle, sighed, and leaned back into the seat, "Let’s go to my dad’s company instead, not to Clearwater Bay."
Jerry didn’t refuse, as long as he could ensure her safety.
The kidnappers’ car sped towards the lakeside... There were few people around here, and an abandoned ferry was docked by the lake.
Justin Kingston’s people had strong predictive abilities, guessing that the ferry was likely the kidnappers’ destination.
So they arrived early, parked their car among the reeds, with two people boarding the ferry in advance and two others observing from the car... just in case something changed.
"CEO Kingston, we’ve arrived and see that the car is heading towards the lake," someone reported.
"Remember, you must ensure the girl’s safety," Justin repeatedly instructed. Thɪs chapter is updated by novel{f}ire.net
The subordinate said, "Rest assured, we brought guns."
They were well-prepared, which was good. Their marksmanship was excellent, and Justin had complete trust in them. The mission was sure to be a complete success.
After ending the call, Justin saw the car ahead and said to the driver, "Slow down, don’t follow too closely."
"Mr. Kingston, they’re speeding up, seems like they’ve noticed us."
In this barren wilderness, it’s easy for a trailing car to be noticed.
Finn Morgan couldn’t help but feel tense, "They won’t do anything terrible, will they?"
"Slow down," Justin ordered, "Stop the car."
Driver Old Chapman hit the brakes, and the car came to a stop by the roadside.
In the car speeding towards the lake, Flynn was observing the road ahead, occasionally glancing at the rearview mirror, confused as to why they weren’t being followed.
"Flynn, did that car stop?" The sidekick in the passenger seat was also puzzled, "What’s happening?"
Hailey turned her head and strained to look back, but the rear window was too dusty to see clearly, just a dark object that wasn’t moving.
Who was following them??
Finn Morgan’s car was white, so it wasn’t Finn... Suddenly, her heart sank with cold dread.
Hailey saw a huge expanse of the lake ahead!
Were they going to throw her into the lake to feed the fish?
"No... Please let me go!" She was truly frightened, her entire being trembling with terror, starting to beg, "Please let me go, I’ll give you any amount of money you want! Not a cent less!"
"Our boss said he doesn’t want money, just you."
"..." Hailey was terrified to the point of collapse.
Flynn slammed on the brakes, and the car stopped by the lakeside. Due to inertia, Hailey’s body leaned forward, her forehead hitting the seatback hard, leaving her dizzy.
Before she could react, someone yanked her out of the car!
The ferry in front of her was dilapidated and even tilted to one side. They dragged her towards the ferry.
"No, no..." Hailey was engulfed by fear, "I won’t go!! Help me! Help me...!" She struggled, awakening the pain in her shoulder.
The men were merciless, pulling her with no regard, dragging her into the ferry. The sharp edge of metal at the entrance injured her calf.
"Ah—" Hailey grimaced in pain, looking down as blood flowed.
At this moment, two men in black descended from the sky, their shiny knives slashing through the air, forcefully slicing the arms of the four kidnappers!
Each was in so much pain they quickly clutched their arms, realizing too late as several strong kicks landed on their abdomens, forcing them to retreat repeatedly.
The frightened girl turned at the sound, only to see Finn Morgan rushing in, a ray of light in the darkness.
