Chapter 641 I Will Call The Cops
Marcus was not intimidated by Yara.
However, Yara’s words and tone seemed extraordinarily composed.
“Indeed… it’s easy!”
She hung up the phone abruptly, leaving only the call end tone in the air.
Beep, beep, beep.
“You! What do you mean? Where exactly are you?”
Marcus was at a loss and began to sweat from nervousness.
Suddenly, a figure emerged from behind and pierced a needle through the skin of his neck.
Shocked by the sudden pain, he responsively fired a shot but he did not manage to hit anything.
“Yara…”
The figure pulled the needle from his neck and vanished into the darkness.
Xavian and Clayton followed Marcus, but they did not get close enough.
Their intuition told them that Marcus must have done something secret to set up a meeting at such a place. They were concerned about their safety and intended to observe the surroundings before meeting Marcus.
Yet, before they could meet Marcus, they heard a loud gunshot.
The gunshot was so loud that Xavian and Clayton immediately covered their ears.
“Clayton, did you hear that? Was that a gunshot?’ Xavian let go of his hand and glanced at Clayton nervously.
“Yes…” Clayton nodded sternly.
“Was it Dad shooting at someone else?” Xavian paled in fright.
Xavian managed to collect information about Marcus from the internet. He had done a lot of illegal stuff when he was young, and he had even beaten someone heavily until the latter was paralyzed. It was not surprising at all if he shot at someone.
“I have no idea…” Clayton patted Xavian’s shoulder. “We have to go inside the warehouse to find out what happened. It’s pointless to keep guessing around here!”
“Clayton, let me go and check then!”
“Xavian, I am the elder brother.” Clayton displayed a stern look. “Stay here and don’t go anywhere. I should be the one to take the risk.”
“No way!” Xavian shook his head firmly. “Clayton, it’s too dangerous inside. What if something happens to you…”
“If something happens to me, please contact the cops or our stepfather to come to rescue me!” Clayton bit his lip. He seemed to have made up his mind. “Maybe it wasn’t Dad who shot at others. Maybe he was the one getting shot. After all, he was our birth father!”
Clayton and Xavian were ashamed of Marcus. Nonetheless, they could not ignore the bond of blood between them.
They could not watch and do nothing if Marcus got into danger.
After pondering for a while, Xavian had no choice but to comply. “All right, Clayton, you go ahead! But if you don’t come back in three minutes, I will call the cops.”
“Okay.”
Clayton left the tree. Seeing there was no one around, he quickly ran into the warehouse.
There was a strong smell of motor oil in the warehouse.
Clayton covered his nose while he kept moving. He spotted Marcus lying on the ground, unconscious a short while later.
“Please wake up!” Clayton approached him and pushed him forcefully.
Marcus opened his eyes slowly. He stared at Clayton with a painful expression.
“You…” Marcus seemed to be suffocating. He grabbed Clayton’s hand desperately. “Help me… I want to live… Get me out of here…”
Clayton only knew basic medical knowledge. He saw Marcus’s lips turn blue, and the veins on his temples throbbed. He had no idea how to help him out of the situation.
“I don’t know how to save you!” Clayton panicked. “Dad, please hold in there. Xavian and I will find a way to save you!”
