When Sean was about to get in touch with the related department, he received a call from Gordon. The latter's apprehensive voice sounded from the other end of the line. “We've just tracked down the cab that Ms. Cece took earlier. According to the driver, she was taken away by a group of men in black right after she got off it.”
In a split second, Danrique knitted his brows. Even though he seemed to be nonchalant as ever, there was a glint of unmissable anxiousness in his eyes.
“Who are those men?” Sean asked
hastily.
“According to the driver, those men in black were seemingly well-trained, and they were all holding guns. I've requested someone to help retrieve the footage of the surveillance camera at the airport entrance. However, nothing could be captured as the surveillance camera was damaged. At the moment, our men are trying to locate the cars parked by the roadside when Ms. Cece was abducted.

Prevailed by sheer apprehension that intensified as time elapsed, he instructed solemnly, “Get in touch with the military now!”
“I'm afraid it'll stir up turmoil in the political sector if we do so. Mr. Lindberg, we're now in a precarious state, encircled by enemies. If you alert the military because of your private matter, the others will surely bombard you with oppressive mockery!” Sean reminded him without a second thought.
“Shut up! Just do as I say!” Danrique bellowed in exasperation.
Sean did not dare to go against his will. He had no choice but stutter, “N-Noted!”
Right that instant, Sloan, who was driving, apologized guiltily, “Mr.
