Chapter 125 Mountaintop
They’re right. Gregory won’t come back just because I’m crying. This is not a dream. Everyone’s just going to get annoyed if I keep this up.
They eventually came to the mountaintop, and the driver stopped at the plateau. There was an abandoned factory on the mountaintop, and the signal was blinking quickly.
Timothy sat up. “This is it. This is where the signal is the strongest. The young master should be in this factory.”
Detective Lawrence and his team got out of the car and surrounded the factory. A few officers charged inside, but it was an empty factory, so they saw everything with one glance. Aside from a few men in black, there was nobody there.
The men in black panicked when they realized what was happening. They started screaming and flailed their wooden bats around. They caused a ruckus by banging their bats against the wall, and the moment the officers came near, they swung their bats in front of themselves to keep the officers at bay, but they couldn’t stop the experienced cops. The officers raised their arms to block the attack and took the men in black down with a single kick. Then, they cuffed their hands and pinned the men in black down. “Where are you keeping the boy?”
The men in black refused to answer.
One of them glared at the officers hatefully and sneered. “You want the kid? Sure. Someone will send him over in a moment.”
Kieran destroyed the factory’s door with a single kick. “B*stards!”
Sh*t. They won’t give up that easily, and they were knocking on the walls. They were probably telling their friends that we’re here. They’ll know we’re on the mountain now. Greg’s in danger. Kieran kicked the man in black. “Where is he? Tell me, or I’ll break your leg!”
“Do it then. Your precious Greg will get his leg broken too.” The man in black scoffed.
I can’t even do anything. Furious, Kieran shot them a glare and looked at Nicholas. “What now?”
Nicholas’ phone rang, and Nicholas took it, but he looked upset.
The mastermind chortled. “Never thought you would break your own promise, Mr. Sawyer. I thought you’re a man of your word, but now I see we’re the same kind of people.”
Nicholas ignored his taunt. He wanted to hang up, but Gregory was still in danger, so he couldn’t do that. He held his anger back and asked, “What do you want?”
Timothy was surprised when he heard the call, as he never thought he would make a mistake. He didn’t expect the mastermind to separate the boy and the phone. That’s a fatal mistake. Am I actually stupid?
Tessa trusted her brother, however. They only got to where they were because of the tracker. She held his hand and assured him quietly. She trusted him because the men in black were captured here, so the location was correct. Tessa stared at the computer’s screen. The dot is nearby. These men couldn’t have called their boss.
Did we miss someone? No, there’s no time to think about this. We need to save Greg. She looked at Nicholas. He’s still talking. Good. Greg is fine for now. She heaved a sigh of relief and got out of the car to check out the surroundings. Suddenly, from the corner of her eye, she saw a man in black in the forest, and it was obvious that he was the kidnappers’ accomplice.
