A Father And His Wolves novel Chapter 43

“You want to know?”

Lilith Carter raised her eyebrows and laughed, “Tomorrow morning at 8:00 a.m., you will arrive at work an hour early to arrange a welcome ceremony for the new president. As for the identity of the new CEO.”

“Well, then you will see.”

Lilith Carter confided, then turned and walked away.

They looked at each other…

…

Ten o’clock at night.

A black Mercedes pulled up outside Nighty Airport, south of Hilshire. The car door was opened and out came three men and a woman, which was Hudson Scott and his mother, who were leaving Hilshire for the Capital City overnight.

The other two men were bodyguards who protected them closely.

“You can go back now.”

Hudson said to the driver when he got out of the car, “Anything happens here in Hilshire, let me know as soon as you can, and please keep my dad safe!”

“You can rest assured.”

The driver nodded, then turned the car around and left Nighty Airport.

“Mom, let’s go.”

Hudson turned to her mother.

“Okay!”

The two of them were in front, the two bodyguards were behind, and four of them strode across to the departure hall. Hudson asked after some hesitation on the way, “Mom, you really don’t know why my dad was so eager to get us out of Hilshire?”

“I really don’t.”

His mother shook her head and sighed, “Your dad kept everything to himself, but I know he must have had his own reasons for doing so.”

“Then he…”

Hudson asked with concern, “Is he gonna be okay? I’m still worried about him. I want to stay.”

“No, you can’t!”

His mother shook her head, “I’m sure your father did the right thing. He wants what’s best for us, and if we insist on staying, it’ll only make trouble for him.”

“Then… fine.”

Hudson was reluctant, but did not dare to disobey his parents.

Bam! Bam!

The two of them were talking as they walked. Just as they reached the entrance of the departure hall, they heard two strange noises behind them, like the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground. Although it was not loud, they could hear it clearly because of the short distance.

They stopped at the same time and looked back.

“It’s…”

“What’s going on?”

They were both startled at what they saw. The two bodyguards who were following them, for some unknown reason, both fell unconscious to the floor behind them.

And the strangest thing was, there were no strangers around!

Hudson realized something was wrong. He bent down to check on the bodyguards, when an old voice sounded in his ear, “You don’t really want to leave, do you?”

“Then don’t!”

It was coming from behind and very close. It started suddenly and made them feel creepy.

Hudson exploded in an instant!

“No!”

His mother let out a scream.

Bam! Bam!

However, before they could see what he looked like, someone hit them hard on the back of the head. The next moment, they were stiff, dizzy, bobbing, and, like the bodyguards, both fell into a stupor.

Opposite, a gray van sped up.
