Winner Takes All novel Chapter 487

Finally, Carlos agreed.

But he requested Jack to postpone their departure date by a day.

Isaac and he needed some time to plan their route and the safety measures along the way carefully.

As this was an attempt to dupe the mastermind out, they needed to ensure their safety while achieving their goal. Then only could their mission be considered a success.

If they were jeopardized in the process, that would mean they failed.

Jack did not object to the plan. He too, was willing to risk it to find out the person in the dark.

However, he wasn’t reckless to the point of being ignorant. It was a matter of course for them to prepare in case there was danger.

Isaac and Carlos came out of Jack’s room.

Only then did they realize Rena never left.

Instead, she was in the yard, sitting on the stone stool in a daze. She propped her chin in the palm of her right hand as she stared blankly into space.

“Rena…”

Carlos approached her.

“You agreed to his plan?”

Without looking back at her grandfather, Rena spoke with a trembling voice.

Carlos could only smile bitterly, “Although it is dangerous, it is the best plan we have now. Otherwise, both sides will continue to be in a deadlock. Negligence is bound to happen one day, and that will only cause more harm to all of us.”

Rena sucked in a deep breath as she moved her right hand to wipe the corner of her eyes subtly.

Then, she looked up at Carlos and said with determination, “Let me tag along!”

“No!”

Carlos’ expression turned solemn, “This is a life and death matter. You can’t take this risk with us!”

“Why? I’m one of the lieutenants of Grand Freemasons. I’m sure I can help in some way!”

Rena retorted stubbornly, “Grandpa, both you and my brother are going, so why can’t I go with you guys?”

“Rena, listen to your grandfather.”

Isaac put his hand on Rena’s shoulder, “It’s going to be dangerous, and as a girl, it will be even more challenging for you. Plus…Anyway, you cannot come with us no matter what.”

Actually, he wanted to mention Rena’s crush on Jack.

Even Isaac, who spent little time with the two youngsters could see her feelings for Jack, what more to say Carlos?

And because she liked him, they were afraid she would act recklessly in the face of danger.

Isaac did not want to see such a situation.

Before Rena could speak again, Carlos waved his right hand and said with a stern expression.

“I can spoil you and let you be for any other matters, but for this trip, you are not allowed to come along. If you continue to be obdurate, don’t blame me for grounding you!”

After Carlos finished his words, he left the scene with Isaac.

As for Rena, she froze on the spot.

Her teary and beautiful eyes were filled with strong determination.

She bit on her lips and clenched teeth, but her gaze was fixed in the direction of Jack’s room.

One day was not enough for Carlos and Isaac to be fully prepared for the plan.

From planning the route to the placement of protective forces and investigators along the way as well as the arrangement of the fleet were matters that took up a lot of time and effort when added together.

It was already late at night when Carlos and Isaac dragged their tired bodies into Jack’s room once again.

“This is the itinerary for tomorrow.”

Isaac placed a map in front of Jack.

Jack took a glance, “The whole route is three kilometres long?”

“Isn’t that enough to make the opponent go crazy?” Isaac laughed.

Jack shook, “I’m afraid that they might be overly rational.”
