After Jack finally contacted Mr. Ward.
He immediately rushed back to the place of the accident.
Yet, the scene in front of him made his heart beat vigorously after he went back to the place with his tired and painful body.
The fire caused by the helicopter was nearly extinguished. The thick smoke went up to the sky and there was still some fire burning.
The destroyed car that had rolled over was still on the sand.
The air was filled with the smell of gasoline and smoke.
Brent was lying on the sand unconsciously where they had taken a rest before.
‘Yet, Dad was… disappeared!’
‘Something happened here!’
Jack’s face became serious. He was panicked and terrified as he moved to Brent’s side.
After waking up Brent, he asked hurriedly, “Brent, what happened? Where is my Dad?”
Brent rubbed the back of his swollen and painful neck and said, “Old master has left.”
“Where did he go?”
Brent shook his head, “He knocked me out when I wasn’t paying attention. Then, he left.”
Jack was stunned as he sat on the sand.
He was suddenly lost as his mind was blank.
‘Who was the one that Dad feared exactly?’
‘Who was the one that could force Dad who controlled the wealth of the world to this point?’
The fact that his Dad was still safe and there was not another murder attempt after he left let him have peace of mind.
“Young master, perhaps old master would not contact you for a long time after he left this time.”
Brent said weakly. He wanted to say something but he suppressed the urge to talk about the matter that Patrick Hughes had coughed blood.
He was afraid that Jack would feel worried.
Brent felt worried secretly as he looked at the boundless desert.
‘Could old master get out of this wide desert while avoiding the pursuit of that force with that body?’
“I know.”
Jack smiled bitterly.
His father had exposed his whereabouts and inflicted the murder attempt because of his arrival.
He would definitely spend more time to ‘disappear’ in order to hide his whereabouts again.
Never contact with the outside world was the best way to hide himself.
However, the doubts in Jack’s mind were getting stronger and stronger.
‘Dad’s words meant he wanted to avoid the crucial matter.’
‘However, he reminded him to be aware of Madam Hughes and the Hughes family. It seemed that he meant something else.’
‘Could it be that… Madam Hughes and the Hughes family were working together to sabotage Dad?’
Jack immediately suppressed the thought when it appeared.
He had suspected this at first. However, when something happened to his father, the Hughes family was in chaos. It was hard to relate them to his Dad’s matter.
Furthermore, if something happened to his Dad, perhaps someone would be the new head of the family.
However, the sudden change to replace the head of the family had totally different meanings compared to the normal succession of the head of the family.
The effect it had on the Hughes family was immeasurable.
If the people from the Hughes family had any brain, they would not do something that was so stupid.
“What do you want me to be aware of exactly, Dad?” Jack’s eyes looked deep as he murmured.
After waiting almost an hour.
The swirling of the sand appeared in the desert far away.
A jeep was driven fast towards them.
Screech!
The car stopped.
Mr. Ward and Jeweline Hunter ran down with terrifying faces.
After seeing Jack and Brent’s looks and the situation of the scene, two of them were extremely terrified suddenly.
“Young master, where is old master?”
Mr. Ward asked.
He knew that Jack was here to meet Patrick Hughes. He and Jeweline were having fun for the whole night. He was delayed so he did not follow Jack.
However, the scene in front of Mr. Ward made him feel extremely terrified.
