Chapter 486
Suddenly, Natalie and the man in black made eye contact.
Now that they were so physically close to each other, she was finally able to see clearly the man’s face under his cap.
Despite thin and shriveled, he was definitely Jorge! ɳσʋҽʅσȥ.ƈσɱ
“Jorge… It’s really you!”
Natalie shouted, “This man is a wanted criminal! Be careful! There’s a wanted criminal on this plane!”
The expression on Jorge’s face suddenly changed.
In an instant, he reached out his hand and pushed Draco before running away.
Draco lost his balance, but, luckily, he didn’t fall.
“Mr. Wesley, are you okay?” Natalie asked.
Draco frowned.
“I’m fine. Don’t worry.”
That was when he’d registered a small pricking sensation in his arm. He touched it with his other hand to examine it.
The pain wasn’t strong, however, so he chose to ignore it.
Natalie’s voice rang out loud and clear.
The news that there was a wanted criminal on the plane caused a great uproar.
The passengers all stood up from their seats in a frenzy and cried for help.
“Have the flight attendant inform the captain!”
“The plane can’t take off. We have to get off!”
“This is horrible! Where is the wanted criminal?”
A cacophony rose as the passengers all shouted, reached for their luggage, and were about to rush out.
Hiding amongst the horde of passengers. Jorge clutched his cap tightly. He silently muttered to himself. ռօʋɛʟօʐ-ƈօʍ. “Natalie! You’re such a bitch! I’ll teach you a lesson next time!”
Jorge hadn’t expected Draco to rush to Natalie so suddenly.
In the frenzy, he d accidentally stabbed Draco with the syringe! Now that the wrong person had been stabbed and the poison gone, all of his efforts had been wasted.
He had no choice but to run away as soon as he possibly could and wait for a future opportunity for revenge! Jorge lingered amongst the passengers and nonchalantly escaped by hiding himself in the crowd.
Even once she was out of immediate danger, Natalie stayed where she was on the floor. She didn’t have time to chase after Jorge right now.
Jorge seemed to have done something to Draco, which worried her a great deal. She became even more upset when Draco’s lips turned pale.
“Mr. Wesley, are you sure you’re not hurt?”
Natalie wasn’t sure what Jorge had done. She insisted on checking the condition of Draco’s arm.
“I saw him touch it,” she explained.
Natalie was sure that Jorge must have been making an attempt on her life, but she couldn’t tell exactly what he’d done. She had only vaguely recalled that there had seemed to be something in Jorge’s hand. She had assumed that it had perhaps been a knife or another deadly weapon.
But, if so, why couldn’t she find a wound on Draco’s arm? Draco shook his head and felt weak.
But other than that, everything else seemed normal. He rolled up his sleeves to check his arm himself, but he couldn’t find any wounds. His arm didn’t seem to be blemished by even so much as a tiny red dot.
Holding Draco’s arm in her hands, Natalie carefully checked it over again a few more times before finally letting out a sigh of relief.
“It seems that Jorge didn’t succeed, after all.”
After a while, Draco felt reassured that he was alright.
“I’m fine. Now after all that commotion, you should tell Brandon that you’re safe. He’s probably worried to death.”
Only then did Natalie recall that her phone was still on the ground. She hurried to pick it up.
The screen showed that Brandon was still on the other end of the line.
“Natalie, can you hear me?”
“Brandon, I’m here.”
As soon as Natalie had regained her composure, she craned her neck, looking warily in the direction where Jorge had run away. She couldn’t find him.
“What happened? Are you hurt?” Brandon asked anxiously.
With a trembling voice, Natalie raised her voice and said, “As soon as the other passengers learned that Jorge was a wanted criminal, they panicked. He knew he was in danger, so he ran off the plane. Jorge managed to mingle with them and now he can’t be found.”
Brandon whispered, “He can’t escape.”
Brandon had asked Sean to block the airport.
Both the police and Brandon’s men were involved in the arrest, and Jorge wouldn’t be able to escape today.
“It sounded like Jorge confronted you head-on. Were you hurt?”
Brandon was still worried.
The moment that Natalie’s phone had been knocked to the ground, his heart had almost stopped beating.
Countless horrific thoughts had flashed through his mind.
Brandon wished he could kill Jorge with his own bare hands.
Natalie did her best to try to set his mind at ease.
“When you called, Jorge was right in front of me. He must have wanted to kill me, but Mr. Wesley block him from getting to me, so I wasn’t hurt.”
With a woeful look on her face, she said, “It’s just a pity that Jorge got away.”
Natalie reflected again upon having checked Draco’s arm. It was strange that there had been no wound there.
Something seemed to have happened.
Why else would Jorge have had that strange look on his face when he ran away?
“I think Mr. Wesley is injured, but I can’t seem to find a wound on him. It’s very strange.”
Then Natalie turned to look over at Draco again.
Draco was standing up and picking his backpack up from the seat. He didn’t seem to have sustained any injury at all.
Brandon also felt that something was definitely wrong.
“Just to be safe, you get off the plane with Draco and we II have him go to the nearest hospital for a full examination.” Natalie agreed.
The flight attendant and the captain had received notice from the airport that they should evacuate the plane, which they began to do.
