She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 778

Chapter 778 Escape

Arthur nodded and immediately took out his cell phone to deploy. He also told his men to widen their search area, which meant that they would have to search the area around Athegate where hostages could be hidden!

Near an abandoned slaughterhouse in the suburbs, Dan finished his last cigarette. He took out his pistol and hummed a tune as he checked the magazine. After making sure there were enough bullets in it, he slowly turned and walked toward the slaughterhouse. The moonlight cast a long shadow behind him, which made him like a ghost.

He sauntered into the slaughterhouse, where the repulsive smell seemed less repulsive, and Dan's blood lust was screaming with delight.

As he walked on, Dan didn't notice a few figures hiding near the dirty chopping block. Humming a tune, he turned and went up to the second floor.

Just halfway up the stairs, Dan's expression changed. There were supposed to be lights on the second floor, but now it was dark ahead. He had already adapted to the darkness and quickly ran up. When he arrived at the floor, he soon found that the pillars that were supposed to hold Jack and the others were all lying on the ground. Only a few of his men could still make a faint moan, and everyone else was in a coma.

He ran to a strong light to turn it on. After the light lit up, the scene of the mess clearly came into view.

"Very good!" Dan's blood was boiling. Jack and the rest were able to break free from the ropes and severely injure the guards. They had the strength to escape. Dan was impressed that they were able to do that, and excited about the hunt that was about to begin.

"Get up. You useless piece of shit," Dan warned his groaning underlings as he kicked them and said viciously, "Find them now!"

A few of his less injured but sane men struggled to their feet under Dan's pressure, and as soon as they got to their feet, Dan snapped,

"Bring your guns. If you see them, kill them!"

His men were furious at Dan's words. They were filled with resentment from the attack, so they grabbed their weapons and followed Dan down the stairs to search for them.

The shadow of the moon was slanting more.

At this time, Jack and the others, whom Dan had put on the death list, were lurking in the dewy grass to discuss their strategy.

"As soon as Dan finds out we're gone, he'll come after us. Are we going to stay and fight to win or die, or are we going to keep running?" Nick asked, lowering his voice.

"Of course we need to keep running. We didn't have time to bring any weapons just now. Do you want us to fight bullets with our bare hands?" Victor really wanted to punch Nick if his injured arm could still move freely.

"Now we're going to pull back, put up with the pain, and find a house with lights," Gene said, agreeing with Victor, who was impulsive, for the first time in his life.

"It can not wait. Retreat!" Jack endured the pain from the abdomen and said.

The crescent moon in the sky seemed to be human, and after a while it drew clouds to conceal the light, and the earth was thus covered with a heavy darkness.

As a special forces team member, not only did they have to be brave and skilled in battle, but they also had to retreat quickly and secretly. An hour had passed, and Dan finally realized that Jack and the others had really escaped after searching the area without any results!

"Careless..." Dan ruefully murmured, pondering for a long time after taking out the only phone to contact Spencer.

"What did you say?!" Spencer heard the news as soon as he was pulled out of his dream by the bell and sat up.

"You let them get away?!"

"It's my fault. I underestimated them," Dan said, "Normal people can't even move with that kind of serious injury," he said. "They can not only escape but also hurt other people. They are definitely not normal people."

"Of course I know they're not normal people. That's why I want you to get rid of them!" Spencer was furious and couldn't help but raise his voice.
