Chapter 1244 Empty
Mountain of the Beasts? Lost in thought, Alex stared at the message on his phone. He couldn't recall ever having any dealings with people from Mountain of the Beasts. Why would someone from Mountain of the Beasts kidnap Stanley? What could possibly be the connection?
Suddenly, Alex's eyes gleamed. He remembered helping Jessica's mother deal with the red-dressed female ghost. He had discovered that someone was deliberately targeting Jessica, even placing a doll in the grave of Jessica's grandfather, Jackson. It was Alex who helped Jessica break that setup, saving their family from disaster.
Jessica and her family once sought the help of Baron from Mountain of the Beasts. I've never had any conflicts with people from Mountain of the Beasts, so why would they kidnap Stanley? What exactly is the connection here?
“Dad, I already know who's responsible for this. Don't worry! I won't let anything dangerous happen to Stanley. They dare to hurt you and even have the audacity to kidnap Stanley. I will make sure they receive the punishment they deserve!” Alex enunciated, his eyes filled with resolute determination.
“I merely suffered some light injuries. Let's go together. We can look out for each other, and I'm worried you won't be able to handle that old woman on your own,” Zachary said, ready to lift off the blanket and join Alex.
Alex quickly pressed his father back onto the bed. “Dad, you just vomited blood. You should stay home and recuperate! Don't worry. I'll be fine. Rest assured!”
“You must bring Stanley back,” Zachary was still somewhat uneasy. However, his injuries were indeed severe, and even if he went with Alex, he wouldn't be of much help.
Alex solemnly nodded his head. After convincing Zachary to rest, he planned to set off for the Mountain of the Beasts to settle the score with those people.
No sooner had he stepped out of the room and closed the door than Zack came running over, panting heavily. From the look on his face, Alex could tell that he had some good news to share.
“I'm glad Heather is fine. Take good care of her. I'm off to Mountain of the Beasts, and I'll be back within a week at the latest,” said Alex as he turned and left.
