Chapter 509 A Melee
Zane took a deep breath before saying, "Ethan even threatened Mr. Adams with you earlier."
Lucia wrinkled her eyebrows, saying, "What?"
Zane's words quickly stirred up her memories. In the past when she was kidnapped, the masked ghost-faced man called himself Ethan. Later she asked August, but he refused to say anything, and then she slowly forgot about it.
Zane reminded, "Remember that dead cat?"
When Lucia heard his words, her body shook and her back instantly stiffened. She remembered the series of inexplicable flowers and gifts that appeared during that time before, the letter with the spider web Logo, and the dead cat in the trunk, as well as the incident when she was kidnapped to the island and required to sign an agreement to keep away from August. It was all done by that Ethan guy! As she recalled this, shivers suddenly went down her spine again. An inexplicable anger welled up in Lucia's heart. She clenched her fists as she asked, "Did he cause what happened this time again?"
Zane nodded wordlessly. Lucia gritted her teeth and didn't say anything.
Zane turned his head towards her and asked, "What are we going to do now?"
Lucia thought for a moment. After a while, she gritted her teeth and said, "Since they have something to do with what happened to August, let's go over there and just seize them and see if we can get something from them."
At this, Zane nodded and said, "I'll inform Kylan
August's men knew about her relationship with August and had respect for her. Besides, she was commissioned by Olivia to find August's whereabouts, so they were willing to obey her.
After receiving the notice, they set a time to go together to Evergreen Temple in the suburbs of Austos City. They agreed to meet on Evergreen Road and then go to Evergreen Temple together to catch the enemy off guard.
Halfway through the journey, Lucia felt anxious. She had never done anything like this before. This was the first time she took a dozen people directly to catch criminals. She thought a lot about it, and finally felt uneasy again, taking out her cell phone to check. Then she called Zane, and instructed him what to do. Soon, they met up with Kylan at Evergreen Road. Then the three cars drove directly towards Evergreen Temple.
Perhaps because of the age and disrepair, the entire Evergreen Temple looked dilapidated from the outside. There were few people around, quiet, and even the temple's doors were closed.
Kylan quietly made a gesture to a few of his men, lowered his voice and ordered, "You two, go block the back door. You guard here, and everyone else follows me." Kylan skillfully assigned tasks. After doing all this, he suddenly remembered that Lucia was also here. He turned his head, looked at Lucia and thought about it, then looked at Zane, ordering, "Make sure to protect Lucia's safety."
Zane immediately answered, "Okay."
Lucia felt a little amused at the way he addressed her Ms. Mitchell with respect on such an occasion. However, the time was tight and there was much tension now. Lucia quickly adjusted and became serious again. She followed Kylan and the others, with Zane following behind her and keeping her in the middle.
Evergreen Temple's door was slowly pushed open by them as the door made a creak. After the door opened a gap enough. for a person to enter sideways, they moved quickly in a row and entered. Lucia also followed with nervousness.
After entering, Lucia saw that there was a Buddhist hall in front of her, and a row of minarets behind the hall on both sides. Behind all these, only the eaves of the houses were visible, and she could see nothing else. The entire Evergreen Temple was shrouded in an atmosphere of dilapidation. When they went inside, they didn't see any sign of human beings at all. Kylan walked in the forefront, keenly scanned the surroundings and then walked straight towards the nearest Buddhist hall. After they got closer, they vaguely heard some noises coming from inside. There were people inside! They were all shocked and then fell into tension, slowly moving closer to the noise.
