Chapter 298 - 298: Safe
A few minutes later, the nurse knocked on the door again.
“I’ve already informed your family. They said that someone will come to the hospital to see you in half an hour.”
Jeffrey’s heart skipped a beat. The nurse didn’t threaten him. Did this mean that he was really safe?
So Corey really just saved him, but he didn’t want to expose his identity, so he Imocked him out and threw him to the hospital?
Half an hour later, someone confirmed this guess.
Jeffrey’s eyes turned red as he looked at the old man whose hair had already turned white.
“Grandfather, why are you here personally?”
Retlin patted his head with a pained expression. “My grandson has committed such a serious crime. How can I not come and take a look?”
Thinking back to what he had experienced over the past few days, Jeffrey finally lowered his proud head in front of his grandfather.
“I’m sorry, Grandfather. I was too arrogant.”
He thought that he was smart and strong enough, so he did not think that he would lose.
He didn’t put the Anderson family and Caroline in his eyes. At the same time, he dared to follow the kidnappers alone in an attempt to save them.
However, being captured twice in a row made him deeply aware of his weakness and powerlessness. At the same time, he also realized what true danger was.
Retlin shook his head. “You can’t be blamed for this. It’s our negligence in educating you.”
They had protected Jeffrey too well, and they hadn’t noticed the change in his mentality in time. They hadn’t guided him properly, which was why he had developed such a fearless and self-righteous personality.
Now that something like this had happened, even though the process had been a little dangerous, it wasn’t a bad thing for Jeffrey to realize his own shortcomings.
Jeffrey found it strange that he was saved. ‘Grandfather, who do you think saved me and destroyed that base?”
Also, after they left the base, he heard the sound of a car in the distance. Thinking back to Corey’s reaction at that time, he guessed that those people were specially here to pick up Corey.
The wrinkles on Retlin’s face deepened.
“Less than an hour after you disappeared, I received news that you were kidnapped. Then, with the help of the A.I. Chip, I confirmed your whereabouts.”
“After that, I immediately sent someone to rescue you. In the end, the chip signal on your body suddenly disappeared.”
Jeffrey thought of the underground base. “They should have something that can block signals.”
Retlin nodded. “It should be.”
They searched the area where the signal disappeared for a day and a night, but they still did not find any useful clues.
Yesterday, Jeffrey’s chip signal suddenly appeared for less than a minute. Retlin quickly sent people over and discovered the existence of the underground base.
However, Jeffrey’s whereabouts were still unknown, so when he received the call from the hospital, he was still in disbelief.
“Because of its remote location, the explosion in the underground base did not soread.”
“Shortly after the incident, a team of soldiers quickly stationed themselves in the base and guarded the perimeter to prevent anyone from approaching.”
According to the news from his subordinates, the soldiers were from Combat Unit 3104 of the local garrison.
If Retlin remembered correctly, the leader of Combat Unit 3104, Hardy, was supported by the Bryan family. It was self-evident who was behind the base and this operation.
The Bryan family, the Abraham family, the Will family, and the Bilder family. These four families were colluding with each other, and their hands and feet were getting longer and longer, and their actions were getting crazier and crazier.
“Don’t worry, they dared to do something to you. The Shwell family won’t let this matter go easily.”
“As for the person who saved you…”
Retlin hesitated for a moment, but he still decided to tell Jeffrey. “I’m not sure who the person who saved you is, but I know their purpose.”
“What’s the purpose?” Jeffrey hurriedly asked.
As expected, that person had a gang.
A complicated expression flashed across Retlin’s face. Then, he softly spat out one word, “Revenge.”
“This is a group of lunatics. It’s just that someone put shackles on them to make them obedient. Now that the shackles are gone, this group of lunatics will only become crazier than before.”
Jeffrey was a little confused. “How did the shackles disappear?”
“Because that person is dead.”
“Luo Ling Pritz, who shackled them, is dead..”
