It was getting late. Julian had heard about the situation from Jim’s mother. He walked away immediately, and waved to his men steering the helicopter.
“Go!”
They changed their direction immediately.
Jim didn’t stop them.
Julian looked at the rearview mirror. Upon seeing no commotion behind, he sensed that something was off and instructed the helicopter to leave first.
Of course, he didn’t let Jim’s mother go. That woman was still useful to him. Even if she was no longer useful to Jim, there was no reason for Julian to let her go so easily.
It was a hot summer day, and the sweltering heat felt suffocating. Julian had a niggling feeling that something was about to happen.
However, his speed was of no match for the helicopter. All he could do was to drive as fast as possible.
When the helicopter arrived at the entrance of the lab, it couldn’t find a space to land and had to circle around the air just like it did above Hughes Manor, awaiting further instructions.
“Mr. Fulcher.” The helicopter was equipped with surveillance functions, which allowed Julian’s men to monitor the movements around the lab. “So far, we don’t see anyone coming out of the lab.”
Julian heaved a sigh of relief.
“I’m rushing over as fast as I can.”
After that, Julian reached the entrance of the lab in less than ten minutes. He sped the entire way, making his high-end sedan fly across the road. He definitely exceeded the speed limit.
There were countless police cars chasing after him, trying to stop him on the road.
However, when they saw the helicopter circling in the air above the lab, none of them dared to act rashly.
“What’s going on?”
A policeman tried to approach the scene, but before he even managed to draw close to Julian, he shrank back under Julian’s warning glare.
Julian didn’t do anything, yet his eyes were like a sharp blade, frightening everyone around him so much they didn’t dare step forward. He exuded an air of authority that subdued everyone around him.
No one dared to say anything, and subconsciously waited for him to walk right up to the entrance of the lab before they dared to step forward. Just as they did so, they were stopped by someone in the helicopter.
