Chapter 507
‘Crash..”
The road up the mountain was covered in debris, and the rain was coming down in buckets.It was far too dangerous to force their way across.
Edgar stopped the car.He frowned at the windshield wipers doing their best to brush the rain aside but failing terribly.
Ben piped up from next to him, "Maybe it's best if we stop for now..."
Before he could even finish his sentence, Edgar had gotten out of the driver's seat.
"You drive" Ben used to be a racecar driver, after all.
Ben froze.
"I can't guarantee that we'll get there safely.Are you sure you're fine putting your life in my hands just to find her?"
Edgar stood outside in the pouring rain.
There was no sign of hesitancy in his eyes.
"Jean trusted her life with you.And I trust her judgment"
It didn't matter who they were to each other.He trusted her no matter where she was.
"Okay then" Ben replied.
They swapped seats and continued onward.
Ben was fully focused on the road ahead.
After a few maneuvers, they arrived at a flat plain.
But it was still dark out, and the rain was still pouring down around them.
They drove on slowly.
"Wait a minute’ Edgar stopped him urgently.
He rolled down the window and looked at the sky to see a flashing bright red light.
"Did you see that?"
Ben affirmed that he did.He had been paying close attention to the road and weather conditions.
It was normal for a racecar driver.
The two of them kept their eyes on the light.
There was another flash of light.
They could make out that it came from a drone.
Edgar smiled in relief.
"She must still be alive."
"What?"
"Just continue in that direction.They must have detained her inside"
Ben was at a loss for words.
"How could you laugh at that?"
Edgar's fist finally relaxed.He had been beside himself with worry for the past two days.
The tightness in his chest finally loosened.
The car continued moving.
After driving for about eighty kilometers, they were stopped by what looked like guards in uniforms.
They were all clad in green raincoats.
Their eyes showed a certain ruthlessness to them.
"Who are you?"
"They don't look like Louisville's military." Ben frowned.
He was confused.
Edgar opened his door and slowly stepped toward them.
Ben watched Edgar talk to them from inside the car.He was shocked to see them open the gates for them! Ben stepped on the gas and drove in.
"What is this place?"
"They have at least five guns pointed at us right now.Don't make any sudden movements or say anything."
Edgar muttered to him.He looked deadly serious.
Ben felt a chill run down his spine.He clamped his mouth shut.
Meanwhile, Jean was in a stalemate.
Jean refused to write her details no matter how they threatened her.She had two reasons; for one, she did not know their intentions.
For two, whose name should she write? She did not know who else she could ask this favor of.
Someone entered the room and whispered something to the head honcho.
Someone else was also brought in.
Jean kept her head low until someone stood next to her and placed a hand on her shoulder.She stiffened.She was about to shove the hand away.
"Let.."
The word had escaped her mouth when she saw his familiar eyes.
