Chapter 530
I instinctively looked at Jack and asked this question.
This K had never appeared before. From his subordinates, it was clear he wasn’t affiliated with Zack’s
forces.
Jack furrowed his brows slightly, about to respond, when K’s smile grew even deeper, making him seemi intimidating. “Everyone knows the famous Mr. Renolds. Besides, if I’m going to deal with you, I naturally need to understand the people around you.”
Jack, whose usually gentle demeanor was now cold and menacing, said in a harsh tone, “Release her.”
“Release her?”
K wiped the blood from his split lip and leisurely walked back to his chair, raising an eyebrow at Jack. “Mr. Renolds, how about we make a deal?”
Jack replied, “What deal?”
“We work together. You help me take down the Shaw family.”
K glanced at me meaningfully and continued, “I can have Ms. Wilson delivered to your home and erase all traces of her disappearance without anyone knowing. Neither the Smith family nor the Frost family would be able to find her. What do you think?”
“From what I know, you must have liked her for many years, right?”
“Silently protecting someone will only make yourself feel touched.”
K’s mouth twisted into a malicious smile. “Why not possess her sooner? What do you say?”
I was startled. If Jack agreed, I had no doubt K could do what he just said.
Grandma disappearing from the hospital without a trace, with even the surveillance footage cut off…
I suppressed my panic, turned to Jack, and saw him blocking me, his face icy. Without saying a word, he flatly refused. “I have no reason to collaborate with someone like you. I’ll ask you one more time. Will you release her or not?”
I felt a sense of relief and realized I had been too sensitive.
Time and again, Jack had helped me, yet I doubted him.
“Release her, of course. I’ll release her right now.” K smiled oddly, then suddenly took a syringe filled with a half vial of transparent liquid from one of his men. “However, Ms. Wilson, I’d appreciate a specific answer about the will as soon as possible.”
Seeing the syringe, I widened my eyes in fear. “What are you going to do?”
“Well…” K dragged out the word, and in the next moment, he jabbed the needle towards my grandma’s
arm.
I knew that it couldn’t be any normal medication. I turned and ran, shouting, “No!”

The foreigner who had led us in suddenly fired at me. At the critical moment, a powerful hand yanked me back, shielding me.
It seemed like a bullet had hit flesh.
My head buzzed. “Jack…”
“I’m fine.”
After Jack scanned me to make sure I was unharmed, he smiled gently. “Don’t be afraid.”
However, blood had started seeping through his white shirt on his arm.
I was startled. “You’re shot!”
“It’s okay.”
