Chapter 440
“I’m Lauren and Candy calls me Aunt Lauren.” Candy and Lauren introduced themselves.
“Oh. My father’s name is Mick Wheatly,” Candy said.
“Mick Wheatly?” Severin was stunned upon hearing the name. He let out a wry smile. “Why Mick?”
“Is there a problem with the name Mick?” Lauren asked curiously.
“Oh, nothing!” Severin smiled embarrassingly. The name Mick reminded him of a cartoon. character in the form of a rodent and coincidentally, Mick was the Hall Master of Mus Hall. Thus, the question.
“Are you saying that we shouldn’t tell my father that we found you yet? What if he calls and. asks?” Candy asked.
Lauren added, “That’s right. I presume he’s going to call us and ask about the progress tomorrow. We just told him this evening that we found where you are living.”
Severin thought about it and said, “What about this? You guys go ahead and find a place to stay. Lauren, you can call back tomorrow and tell him neither of you can kill me. You’re badly hurt and I have captured Candy. Ask him to bring some men with him to rescue Candy. Say that I’ll be waiting for him in the woods. I will kill Candy if he does not come to rescue you and Candy.”
“What? That’s going to scare my father!” Candy was shocked to hear that. How could the Supreme Leader make out this story just so he could keep his identity a secret?
Lauren took time to consider and said worried, “It’s possible that he will bring the member of the Mus Hall with him. But I worry if he’s going to seek help from Blood-Drinker Gang if he knows you have captured Candy?”
Candy thought otherwise, “I don’t think that’s possible. Blood-Drinker Gang only wanted us to help them with their dirty work. Even if my father went to look for them, they won’t help us too. My father is not that weak. On the contrary, if he knows that I was captured, I’m sure he would quickly rush over here with the others to find Aunt Lauren.”
Severin nodded. “But just in case, it’s better that you don’t show up together with Lauren tomorrow. I will go find you when it’s the evening and we shall go to the woods together. After that, we can tell Mick about the situation.”
