Jack sighed when he looked at the mess in the room. His eyes were lifeless, as though he had aged ten years overnight.
"Did they bring Wayne's body away?" Luke asked.
"They did," Jack said worriedly. "His jugular vein was completely severed by a sharp blade."
That was the coroner's preliminary finding. When Jack saw Wayne's body, he could even see the bones inside. It was a gut-wrenching sight.
Luke was not that interested in Wayne's death. He was so concerned because Wayne might have known something about Bianca's disappearance.
Now that Wayne was dead, Luke had no other leads.
His phone started ringing. He went to the balcony before answering it. "What is it?"
The call was from Percy. "I've found the man you want. My men have just tied him up. Where do you want me to deliver him?"
"Your house," Luke said. Ever since he found out that Xavier had harassed Bianca the morning she went missing, they had been trying to find the man. Xavier had hidden himself well, and it took them so long to find him.
"I'll go over now." He left the balcony immediately.
Luke went to tell Jack. "You can call me if you need anything, Dad. I have to go now."
"Alright then. I won't bother you." Jack waved his hand, indicating understanding.
As far as he knew, Luke was only a businessman, and he would not be of much help in these circumstances. He was afraid that his political enemies would take the opportunity to bring him down and bring trouble to his wife and daughter.
Meanwhile, Percy looked at Xavier, who was bundled up like a burrito. He smiled sinisterly and told the driver, "Back to the mansion."
"Yes, Sir," the driver replied and started the car.
Xavier tried to struggle, but his entire body was tied up, and he found it hard to even wiggle his toes.
Sensing movement, Percy turned his head and glanced at him. He did not want to get himself involved, but his subordinates called him to tell him that they found Xavier at a ranch in the outskirts.
Without hesitating, he drove there to capture Xavier himself. As expected, he found Xavier there and tied him up.
Xavier glared at him and did not say anything.
He had been hiding at the ranch for the past few months. The only time he left the place was when he went to warn Bianca.
He did not want to flee abroad. He hid there so that he could dig up some dirt on Luke.
Unfortunately for him, he did not manage to prevent Bianca from being abducted, and his hiding spot was found. Even so, Xavier did not beg for mercy.
The car drove back to Percy's mansion.
After Percy got out of the car, he told his subordinates, "Bring him to the living room. We'll hand him to Luke when he comes."
"Yes." Two burly men came over, picked Xavier up, and went to the living room.
Percy sauntered to the wine cellar and selected a few bottles of red wine from his collection. He would be bringing those to Nina's mansion later.
"Sir, Mr. Crawford is here," the butler said as he walked into the cellar.
"That's fast." Percy was still holding onto a bottle of wine, not expecting that Luke would arrive so quickly. He handed another bottle of red wine to the butler, "Open and decant this."
