Chapter 1135
"Calm down, grandpa." Jared looked at Mr. Johnston Sr. "I'll handle this."
"It's okay, I'll settle this myself," Maximillian said. "Bring Henry over at once."
"Where's your father?" Jared asked.
"He's probably waiting for us at home," Castor said.
Jared looked at Claus, who immediately brought his men along with him as they made for Henry's house.
However, Henry had arrived at the hospital in a hurry at around the same time. As soon as he reached the lobby, he saw Claus walking toward him with a group of men at his flank. Startled, he hid and phoned Castor in a flash.
Back in Mr. Johnston Sr.'s ward, Castor's phone rang. He then turn to look at his grandfather as he did not know if he should answer the call.
"Put him on speaker," Jared ordered.
Castor answered, and Henry's voice was instantly heard from the other end of the call. "How did it go?"
"It went perfectly according to plan," Castor's fumbled, his voice trembling.
Henry registered the shuddering in his son's voice and hung up at once. Seeing this, Castor stared at the phone before turning to Jared in helpless fashion.
Hiding in a corner, Henry immediately called his wife and said, " Head to the airport right now, and do it as fast as you can. A group of men are heading to our house."
"Okay!" his wife replied.
After ending the call, Henry looked out for any sign of Jared's men before sneaking back to his car to make his way to the airport.
In the airport, Henry met his wife at the spot that they agreed on and in no time, proceeded to flee to another country through the latest flight available.
When Claus had arrived at Henry's house with his men, he saw that the entire place was pitch-black. He knocked on the door, but no one answered.
"Open the door!"
Bam! It was then that they smashed the door open, and Claus barged in with the men.
"Mr. Johnston?" he yelled, but no one responded, even after they called out repeatedly.
Then, Claus shot his men a look and they began their search upstairs.
"No one's here," one of them said.
Claus immediately reported this to Jared, saying, "Mr. Johnston, no one is here."
"If they're not at home, head to the airport right now!" Jared ordered, upon coming up with the thought that they must have gone there.
"Yes, sir," Claus affirmed.
"Quick! Head to the airport!" Claus ordered, and took his men to the airport at breakneck speed.
But once they had reached the airport, the plane that Henry was in had already taken off.
Claus kept searching for Henry in the airport until he saw the very same plane taking wing outside of the window. Seeing this, he immediately asked a staff, "Please check if there's a 'Henry Johnston' in the flight that just took off."
"Sorry, we don't have the right to disclose our passenger's information," the staff said.
Claus proceeded to call the manager of the airport on the spot, and the staff received a call right after Claus had hung up.
