Wolves, Maces, And Blood novel Chapter 96

Mr. Brain was thinking about this problem, too.

What should they do?

Luis Sanchez made a bad move and dragged the entire Sanchez family into the game. If they made one more mistake, the Sanchez family could be wiped out.

After nearly five minutes of thought, Mr. Brain said quietly, “For now, I’m afraid we will have to protect the Sanchez family first, and then Mr. Luis.”

“Oh?”

Owen Sanchez frowned. “What do you mean?”

Mr. Brain explained, “Before Sean left, he said if anything happened to his daughter, the next time he came, he would kill the Sanchez family. In other words, if his daughter is safe, or if we can help him save his daughter, it means saving the Sanchez family.”

“As for Mr. Luis…”

Mr. Brain shook his head and went on, “Logan Garcia said that after they kidnapped Phyllis this morning, they handed her over to Mr. Luis, who handed her over to Reid. She’s been held in Elegant Villa’s safe room. No one could come near. Even Mr. Luis could only act on Reid’s will.”

“So, it wasn’t Mr. Luis who attacked Phyllis, it was Reid. Mr. Luis is at best an accomplice, not a mastermind. If I’m right, Sean’s main purpose when he stormed into the Sanchez family to find Mr. Luis was not to kill him, but to get him to tell him how to save Phyllis…”

Mr. Brain spoke with a very thorough analysis of the present situation.

Owen Sanchez thought for a moment and said, “So you’re saying that if we save Phyllis, not only will we keep the Sanchez family safe, but we’ll keep Luis alive?”

“Maybe not now, but someday, I think so.”

Mr. Brain nodded, “If you think about it, Sean was very just now, but the fact that he spared your life at the last minute means he’s not a bloodthirsty man. If Mr. Luis had been caught by him now, he might have killed him in a fit of rage.

“However, …”

“If we help him save Phyllis before he gets to Mr. Luis, we’ll make amends for Mr. Luis. At that point, when he had calmed down, the reason for killing Mr. Luis would be less compelling, and Mr. Luis would have a chance to live.”

Mr. Brain was over 60 years old, and his ability to judge people and things was far better than ordinary people.

Until now, Mr. Brain had not suggested to Owen Sanchez that he join the Mason family in the Capital City. In his opinion, although Sean was fierce, he had principles, a bottom line, and a clear balance between favors and enmity. He was far more trustworthy than the Mason family of the Capital City.

Dropping their benefactor as soon as their help was not required. The Mason family of the Capital City had done a lot of these things.

“Good point!”

Owen Sanchez thought for a moment, then nodded. “Tomorrow morning, we’re gonna go to city hospital, check on Phyllis, and see if there’s anything we can do to help.”

“Okay.”

Mr. Brain said, “In addition, you must not send anyone to find Mr. Luis until then. We were able to spy on Sean, and Sean was able to spy on us, too. If we find Mr. Luis and don’t give him to Sean, and when he finds out, it will only ruin everything we’ve done and makes it worse.”

“Okay, I got it.”

Owen Sanchez sighed quietly, “Let’s hope Luis learns to be smarter this time, to run faster, to run farther, to hide better, and not to have any more problems…”

A father’s love was as great as a mountain.

No matter you were good, bad, rich, or poor...

At ten past eight in the evening.

There were officers left behind by Luke Young outside city hospital. When he saw Sean, he immediately came up to him and handed him a suit of clothes, saying, “Mr. Mason, This is for you from Mr. Young.”

Sean still hasn’t had time to change his bloody suit. He couldn’t go to Cecilia dressed like that.

Sean took the clothes and went back to the car. In less than a minute he had changed, then he came out and said, “How’s Phyllis? Have you checked with the doctor?”

“Yes.”

The officer nodded and said, “Mr. Young has asked Mr. Allen, the vice president of the city hospital, to examine your daughter himself. After the examination, your daughter was placed in VIP room 508. She’s not yet conscious, and your in-laws are taking care of her.”

“Where’s my wife?”

Sean asked as they walked.

The officer said, “Mr. Allen called in the chief physicians of all departments of the hospital to conduct a consultation study on the examination results. Your wife, Miss Moore, has been waiting at the conference room door. She was worried about your daughter’s health, so...”

“Miss Moore is emotionally unstable.”

The police officer was very polite to Sean because of Luke Young’s warning.

Sean walked into the elevator without stopping. “Let’s go to the conference room.”

“Okay!”

The officer then pressed the elevator button to the eighth floor.

In the eighth floor.

Cecilia sat alone on a chair in the hallway outside the conference room. Her head was down, and she kept reaching out to wipe her tears, her thin shoulders trembling slightly.

She was obviously very frightened.

The elevator doors were opened slowly and Sean strode out. The policeman wisely did not follow him, but took the elevator back the way it had come and went to guard at the hospital gate.

When Sean saw Cecilia from afar, he paused a little, but did not stop. He walked right up to Cecilia, sat down in the seat next to her, and whispered, “Sorry, honey. I…”

“Shut up!”

Cecilia's body suddenly stiffened when she heard Sean’s voice in her ear. She cried coldly, then looked up, her tearful eyes sullen. She stared at Sean and choked up, “Don’t you call me honey! I’m not your honey!”

“Liar! You’re a liar!”

“I don’t know anything about you except your name and your conviction for five years ago, and you won’t tell me anything, so why do you call me honey? Is that the right way to treat your honey?”

“You said as long as you are here, no one can bully me and Phyllis, no one can hurt us. But when Phyllis was abducted, when she was tortured, where were you?”

“Why y didn’t you tell me when you knew about her kidnapping and let my dad and mom keep it from me?”

“Why is that? Tell me! Why?”

“To Me and Phyllis, you’re just an outsider who’s been in our house for less than two days! A stranger! Phyllis is my daughter! I’m her real mother! What right have you to keep this from me?”

As Sean had predicted, Cecilia had forgotten about the Moore Group when she learned of Phyllis’s abduction and was in no mood to ask.

Sean was bombarded with questions and reprimands. Cecilia’s voice got louder and louder, and her grief did get out of hand.
