Son-In-Law Gets an Upgrade novel Chapter 714

Chapter 714 In Time 

A little boy. Those three words exploded in Alex’s mind, and he tightened his grip on Deuce. 

“Where is he now? Did you kill him?” Alex questioned in a thundering roar. 

“No, no, no! We were about to do it, but the box used to store the organs was broken, so we ended up postponing. The boy’s still fine.” 

If Ace had not brought a broken box to him, they would have done the organ harvesting right away. If the boy was really the Stanley that they were looking for, then it would be their lucky day. 

Deuce mulled over the situation. If this man’s son is still alive, and with the powerful backup we have, I’m sure he’ll let us go alive. 

With that thought in mind, Deuce let out a silent sigh of relief. 

“The kid’s in the basement. I’ll lead you there,” Deuce volunteered, hoping that Alex would let him off. 

The few of them then followed Deuce to a room on the first floor. The room looked ordinary, but there were no traces of anyone having ever lived in that room. 

For people in their line of work, they had to be wary of someone finding out about the true nature of their work. Therefore, they had made a basement to keep things more secretive. 

Deuce paused in his tracks by the side of the bed. Under the blanket were the slats. When Deuce pulled them off, a dark tunnel appeared in front of them. 

If Deuce had not led the way. Alex and the thousands of men would have never found the place. 

Who would have thought that the entrance to the basement was right under the bed? 

The moment they entered the basement, they realized the place was spacious. Yet, a pungent scent of blood and mold filled the air. 

One could only imagine how many innocent lives had been taken by these men. 

After a few minutes of walking, they arrived in front of a room. The door was ajar, and they could vaguely see a child lying on the bed inside. 

“Stanley?” Alex tentatively called out as tears rolled down his cheeks. 

The very second he called out the name, the boy on the bed thrashed before shouting, “Daddy! Daddy!” 

When he heard that voice, Alex felt as if he had been given life again. His dying heart began thumping loudly. 

Stanley’s still alive! 

Without any hesitation, Alex ran toward the bed and broke off all the chains that held Stanley down. 

Once the boy was free, he threw himself into Alex’s arms. The father and son sobbed as they embraced, and the people behind them were touched by the scene. 

Thank god. Thank god I made it in time.
