Saydie looked toward Gerald’s men and asked, “How about them?”
Quincy replied, “They were kidnapped as well, so I guess they would only be detained for ten to 15 days
for fighting in public.”
Saydie did not say anything anymore.
At Bassburgh…
Maisie and Nolan came to the police station after receiving the message. By the time they arrived there,
Saydie and Quincy had just
come out of the interrogation room.
“Saydie!” Maisie rushed up to her. “Are you alright? Are you hurt?”
Saydie shook her head.
Quincy was rendered speechless.
‘Hello? I’m here too! Don’t you think you should show me some concern too?’
Maisie put her hand on Saydie’s shoulder and heaved out a sigh of relief. She offered her a smile and
said, “That’s great to hear. Honestly, when I heard that you were kidnapped, I thought… But I’m really
happy that you can come back to me.”
Saydie lowered her head. Even though she was moved by the fact that someone was worried about her,
she did not know how to express her feelings.
Nolan and Quincy went to the side. “How many of them were caught?” “We managed to get all of them,
but one escaped.”
Nolan squinted his eyes. He was certain that the one who had escaped must have gone back to inform
his comrades about the things that had happened here. He wondered if he could get anything useful
from these people other than Peter.
He looked at Quincy and ordered, “Go look for Maizie.”
“Maizie?” Quincy was stunned.
“Yeah,” he replied. “She has a fat fish in her hand, so let’s get her out first.”
Suddenly, he received a call.
When Barbara arrived at the parking lot a car came up to her rapidly and stopped beside her.
Before she could do anything, the man inside the car covered her mouth and dragged her into the car.
They put a hood over her head and brought her to a room. When they took the hood off, she narrowed
her eyes to adjust to the light.
“Don’t just stand here. Go over there.” Someone pushed her, and she stumbled a few steps forward. It
was only then she saw the surroundings clearly.
It was a place that seemed like a casino. The light was dimly lit, and the air was filled with smoke. There
were a few men in black suits standing behind her. “Go in.” One of them grabbed her shoulder and
pushed her into a room.
The room looked like a medium-sized private room. Two men were sitting on the couch, and one of them
was Helios.
The man standing behind Helios held him down by pressing on his shoulder. It seemed to Barbara that
he had been brought here by force as well. When Helios saw Barbara, he was slightly stunned.
The middle-aged man in the front seat wore a green shirt. He rested his arm on the back of the couch,
and he was swirling the wine gently in the glass in his hand. The golden watch on his wrist was sparkling
under the light.
“Have a seat, Ms. Chase. Make yourself at home,” the man said as he waved his hand. The two
bodyguards behind her pressed her shoulders to force her to sit down.
She looked at Helios before turning back to the man and asked, “You are?”
“You can call me Mr. Grant,” Tony replied as he put the glass on the table. “I’m sorry to invite you here in
this way. I don’t mean anything else, I just want to talk to you.”
Barbara frowned. Something inside of her was telling her that the man before her eyes was not an
ordinary man. There was a probability that he was related to them.
Tony clasped his hands on his crossed leg. There was a smile on his face, but the smile did not reach his
eyes. He looked at Barbara and said, “I’m sorry about what happened to your uncle, and I’m truly grateful
that your father is willing to give me a chance.”
Barbara was stunned, and she subconsciously clenched her fist tightly.
Helios looked at him and said, “Let me guess. You brought us here to threaten my father and Michael,
right?” Barbara was dumbfounded.
Tony chuckled and pointed at him. “It’s such a waste that you prefer to stay in the entertainment industry.
I thought you’re going to take over the position like your father.”
Helios replied expressionlessly, ‘I’m not interested in that position.”
