The Almighty Lord Caspian novel Chapter 671

"What? Fergus' wife is Jerry's daughter?" Laina was utterly shocked.

"That's right. The reason why the Jessop family rose to power in Churron is because of Lacey.

"Lacey relies on her father's high position in Diatoran and acts arrogantly in Churron. The Jessop family has done many unspeakable things, but they've all been covered up.

"As far as I know, Blake drank a lot of alcohol and drove in the opposite direction before colliding with Lord Caspian's mother. Not only did he hit her, he tried to shift the blame, too.

"When he couldn't extort money, he tried to take advantage of Sherry's daughter. If Tom hadn't arrived in time, Lord Caspian's mother and sister would be in danger!" Aria recounted the whole incident.

"How audacious! Blake dared to lay hands on Lord Caspian's mother. Does he have a death wish? The Jessop family is going to pay for this!" Laina's brows furrowed in anger.

"Captain, this matter is extremely urgent. Lord Caspian's mother may be in danger. You'd better report this to Lord Caspian immediately!" Aria urged anxiously.

"Alright! I'll report it now!" Laina said before hanging up the phone.

She was about to enter the memorial hill to find Caspian, but the guards stopped her just as she arrived at the entrance.

"Who are you? You can't go in!" the guard reprimanded upon seeing her casual attire.

"I'm Laina Barnes, the captain of Task Force Rose. I have urgent military intelligence to report to Lord Caspian! Let me in quickly!"

Laina's brows furrowed slightly. Time was of the essence, so she could only expose her identity.

"She has a gun! Everyone, be careful!" a guard shouted fearfully.

Immediately, many guards raised their guns at Laina.

No one could confirm Laina's identity. Before confirming her identity, they absolutely couldn't let her in.

If she dared to force her way in, the guards wouldn't hesitate to shoot.

"Why are you panicking? I've already said that I'm the captain of Task Force Rose. Shouldn't I be armed?" Laina remained calm as she stared at the guards.

Their duty was to protect the memorial hill, so they were cautious.

Hence, Laina wouldn't get angry over such matters.

"Why should we believe you?" the guard asked cautiously.

They couldn't just let her in based on her words alone. If Laina really intended harm, no one could bear the responsibility.

"Take a look at my ID, and you'll know!" Laina couldn't be bothered to explain further and took out her ID immediately.

The guards examined her ID carefully. It was indeed real, so they didn't dare to harm her.

Although the ID seemed authentic, they still couldn't confirm her identity. Everything could be forged these days, and they'd never seen the captain of Task Force Rose in person. There was always the possibility that she might be a fraud!

They would be held responsible if they let Laina in and something went wrong.

"Captain Bernard, please wait patiently. I'll inform Lord Caspian now!" a guard said.

The guard didn't dare to decide on his own in such matters. It was better to let Lord Caspian give the orders.

"Hurry! This matter is extremely urgent. If you delay it, you'll all be responsible for the aftermath!" Laina also understood the guards' situation, but she really couldn't wait any longer.

One guard immediately ran into the memorial hill to report to Caspian.

They wouldn't have such strict precautions in place if it weren't for Balthazar and Caspian both being in the memorial hill.

"Reporting to Lord Caspian! Captain Barnes of Task Force Rose requests to see you!" the guard reported to Caspian.

"It's true. The information is accurate!" Laina repeated.

"Great! Where's my mother now?" Caspian asked eagerly.

For years, he had been troubled by his origins. He already knew who his father was, and now, he had found his mother.

Of course he couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart.

Willow also felt happy for Caspian upon hearing this news.

"She's in Churron, but it seems she's in danger!" Laina replied.

"What? What happened?" Caspian asked in shock.

"Lord Caspian, the Jessop family of Churron has captured your mother. Time is running out. You must send someone to rescue her!" Laina said urgently.

Willow was momentarily stunned because she just received news that Miranda was also in trouble in Churron.

Miranda was also captured by the Jessop family. Who were they to be so arrogant?

"Explain the situation clearly to me, then I'll make a decision," Caspian said after calming down his excitement.

He needed to understand the situation before sending troops. Otherwise, it would cause panic among the citizens to see a troop of armed soldiers all of a sudden.

"According to the information, Madam Lynch had conflicts with the Jessop family. Now, they captured her and took her to an abandoned factory north of the city!" Laina reported.

"An abandoned factory north of the city? Why did they bring my mother there?" Caspian asked with curiosity.

"Our intel says that the Jessop family intends to take out Madam Lynch's eyeballs!" Laina answered.
