Chapter 1621 Main Priority
Charlotte froze on the spot. A second later, she questioned emotionally, “How could it be? Why didn’t you rescue both of them at once?”
“By the time we went there according to the clue in the picture, the opponents were already alerted, and they evacuated with the kids.
We kept chasing them. But we did not dare to do much, considering the kids’ safety. In the end, Jamie jumped out of the car. That was why we managed to rescue him. But Robbie was taken…”
Gordon elaborated what happened.
“Did you say Jamie jumped out of the car?” Charlotte’s heart skipped a beat. “Is he all right?”
“He jumped into the woods. He got some scratches, but it was not serious,” Gordon replied. “My men are escorting Jamie back now, and I will continue to chase Robbie.”
“I’ll be there right away…”
Hanging up the phone, Charlotte immediately asked Lupine to drive toward Gordon.
Lupine kept comforting her. “Ms. Lindberg, don’t worry. It is a good thing to be able to rescue one of them. Now that Gordon is still on a trail. I believe Robbie will be rescued soon.”
“Yes.” Charlotte tried hard to recollect herself. “I intended to go to Yaleview to find them. I didn’t expect Gordon to find their base as soon as he got the clue.”
“So the clues are useful after all,” Lupine uttered.
“It meant they were getting close initially. The clue on the picture increased their effectiveness.” Charlotte furrowed her brows tightly.
“But Jesse is not an easy opponent. He must have known what Chris revealed to me after seeing me at the hotel. That was why he must have contacted his subordinates to relocate Robbie and Jamie…”
“I see.” Lupine came to the realization. “But, how did he know Chris is meeting you at the hotel?”
“Chris thought he was able to go unnoticed, but it turned out everything was under Jesse’s control,” Charlotte continued to analyze.
“He was still able to reveal some information to me, but I am afraid not anymore. Jesse will definitely keep a close eye on him from now on. Jesse will make him marry Nancy as soon as possible…”
“Then he has no value to us anymore.” Lupine displayed a despicable look. “Even though he resembles Mr. Nacht, his brain and soul are too low-leveled.”
“Danrique approached Jesse tonight. Jesse must have put on his alert. He will be acting fast to prevent troubles.”
The more Charlotte analyzed the situation, the more uneasy she felt.
“But Robbie is still in his hands. I can’t do anything. The company can’t get involved too. So will we watch the Nacht Group fall into his hands?”
“That’s a shame.” Lupine still gripped onto a hope. “Will Mr. Lindberg help?”
“Danrique is good at ruling and managing, but he doesn’t know much about corporate warfare. Not to mention, he is occupied with his own business. And even if he wants to help, it would be difficult.”
Charlotte let out a long sigh. “Thus, our priority is still to rescue Robbie first.”
“Then, let’s focus on saving Robbie.” Lupine sighed. “It would be great if Ben could wake up earlier. He will be a lot of help in business.”
“By the way, what time is it now?” Charlotte glanced at her watch. It was already one in the morning. “I wonder if Francesco has arrived.”
“Should we ask?” Lupine responded.
“Don’t scare her.” Charlotte furrowed her brows. “Let’s try calling Morgan’s phone.”
“Okay.” Lupine dialed Morgan’s number right away, but no one answered for a long while.
“It looks like she has arrived.” Charlotte heaved a sigh of relief. The next second, something came to her mind. “By the way, is the prescription that Dr. Felch left behind with Ben?”
