Chapter 393 After driving for half an hour with David in the car, Lucas entered a quiet alley with two soldiers armed standing guard at the entrance.
After entering the alley, they continued to drive forward for a few minutes, passing through several junctions, each of which was guarded.
It showed the importance of the place where they were going.
Finally, Lucas stopped at the gate of a huge manor.
“David, go ahead,” Lucas said.
“Aren’t you going in too?” David asked.
“It’s you the chief of staff wants to see, not me. Why should I go in?”
“Okay, I’ll go in then.”
David opened the door and got out of the car.
Then he walked to the gate of the manor, gently pushed the door open, and walked in.
After entering the gate, David felt as if he had entered another world. There was pleasant scenery in front of him which looked like a paradise.
Under a tree not far away, a gray-haired old man was sitting on a rattan chair with his eyes closed. Meanwhile, a young woman behind him had her head lowered while massaging his shoulders.
After gently closing the door, David walked forward and stopped a few meters away from the old man.
He did not dare to disturb the old man, so he just stood there quietly instead.
The young woman who was massaging the shoulders of the old man looked up at David and smiled at him.
David was stunned. Wasn’t this the woman he rescued last time?
She was a big shot indeed.
No wonder Lucas asked him to make sure the hostage was safe no matter what.
Her identity was in defiance of the natural order.
The two of them did not speak nor make any noise.
About ten minutes later, the old man on the rattan chair moved. He opened his eyes slowly to look at David.
Then, David and the old man stared into each other’s eyes for a second.
