"Sure," Theodore said with a smile. 'Til have someone abduct Mary and make her kneel while making you tea. Then, I'll take care of Nathan and Penny."
Mary came from a prominent family in Northania. Most people in Channing admired her background and dared not lay a finger on her.
Theodore Lloyd was the general manager of Ocean Corporation that dealt with firearms.
He used to be a mercenary abroad during his earlier days and was rather well-known in Southeast Asia.
He then became Trip Turner's right-hand man, overseeing the weapons deals to Southeast Asia's Armed Forces.
Whether it was tribal leaders, army chiefs or drug lords, he had seen it all.
Someone like Mary meant nothing to him.
Besides, this woman probably knows Cross very well, considering how much she
respects him.
I should capture and interrogate her about him.
That very night, Theodore ordered his subordinate, Lucas Payne, to kidnap Mary.
With a large frame and muscular build, Lucas was a formidable fighter and killing machine.
Unfortunately, he was brash and impulsive, and certainly not the brightest bulb around.
The man barged into the Ivory Teahouse with several dozen henchmen to take Mary away by force.
However, the guests and security guards blocked their paths. By the time Lucas ordered his men to knock everyone down, Mary had already escaped amidst the chaos.
He hurriedly gave Theodore a call.
Fuming with anger, Theodore ordered
Lucas to expand his forces and capture their target at all costs.
