“Huh?” The woman was confused.
Silas flashed a smile and explained, “The man who sent her here.”
“Oh, I see.” The woman tapped her head. “He wasn’t the one who sent Ms. Smith here. It was Ms. Smith who sent him here. He was badly injured as his limbs were broken. After Ms. Smith arrived here with him in tow, she fainted due to exhaustion.”
“Sean Thompson!” Shane clenched his teeth as a menacing gleam flashed across his eyes.
The woman trembled uncontrollably at his intimidating aura.
Who is this man? Why is he so intimidating?
“Where is he now?” Silas pressed on.
The woman calmed down and answered, “He’s not here. After giving us three hundred grand to take care of Ms. Smith, he asked us to bring him to town.”
“Mr. Shane, looks like he escaped as he knew that we’ll be here,” reported Silas.
Shane was radiating iciness as he muttered, “He won’t escape for long. I shall find him soon.”
I swear I won’t stop until I find Sean!
Silas took one look at Natalie and lamented, “I was shocked to know he didn’t abduct her. He even asked someone to take care of her. What is he thinking?”
That lady mentioned Sean’s limbs were broken, but madam is fine. What happened back there?
Silas didn’t voice his doubts out loud.
After all, the man had escaped. It was useless to talk about it right now. Perhaps the truth would be revealed after Natalie regained consciousness.
“No matter what, he’s dead meat,” announced Shane.
He shook his head as a wave of dizziness attacked him. “Arrange for the helicopter to give us a ride back to J City.”
“Got it!” Silas nodded and left to make the call.
An hour later, the helicopter arrived.
Shane held Natalie in his arms as they made their way back to J City.
