Chapter 2948 Who Is Your Sponsor
“Good. Keep following them and find out which room they are in. Also, tell the receptionists that you act based on my instruction if they aren’t cooperative.” Larry hung up once he instructed Caspian.
After Caspian confirmed their rooms, Larry immediately departed to the hotel.
“Boss, I don’t think Larry will give up so easily. Do you think he’s playing some tricks?” A young man whispered near his boss’s ear.
His boss lit up a cigarette and began smoking calmly. No doubt, Larry will definitely find ways to track Joan! At this time, a shiver ran through his spine.
After hesitating for a while, he decided to make a phone call.
“Why are you that nervous? They haven’t found you, have they?” Abelyn said composedly over the phone.
“Ms. Chipman, do you think I’m an idiot? Since Joan is the woman whom Larry loves, will he let us off the hook? You promised us that Larry would never be aware of it, yet it turned out differently! What should we do now?” he said disgruntledly.
What a bunch of losers! After things turn out to be different, he doesn’t figure out a way to solve it but only complains to me! I must be blind to have hired this bunch of talkative losers to abduct Joan.
Abelyn clenched her fists and let out a frosty glare.
“Ms. Chipman, this is beyond what we can do. We’ll stop doing it, and you don’t have to pay us. All we want is to stay alive!” With that, he hung up the phone.
“Wait!” Abelyn suddenly yelled and added, “Kill Joan today! You don’t have to wait till tomorrow, for I’ve decided to…”
Kill Joan? It’s easier said than done! Since Larry had found out that Joan is in our hands, he won’t let us off the hook if she dies! We can’t risk our lives for it!
He hung up the phone before Abelyn could finish. Given the gravity of the situation, he decided not to follow Abelyn’s instructions blindly.
“Boss, should we kill the woman?” a young thug asked him.
“Brothers, we’ve to run,” he replied seriously.
“I’m sorry this time. However, we can’t afford to mess with Larry. Alas, we shouldn’t have accepted the job in the first place. If you believe me…” He said while holding the young thug’s arm.
Meanwhile, Joan could hear the conversation between them as she wasn’t far away.
“Ms. Chipman is unreliable…”
Ms. Chipman? Is Ms. Chipman their so-called sponsor? Joan kept her guard up upon hearing it. Among all of my friends, only Abelyn has the surname Chipman!
Could it be that Abelyn is the mastermind behind everything? Impossible! Abelyn and I are good friends. Why would she do something detrimental to me? I must be overthinking it!
“Ms. Watts, we apologize for everything and beg you to speak well of us to Mr. Norton. We don’t want to carry on with this mission, for we only wish to survive,” one of them pled earnestly.
Judging from their sincerity, Joan couldn’t help but feel a little touched. Are they going to escape?
“Let’s move and escape through windows!” With that, they ran toward the window.
They knew very well that Larry’s men were definitely monitoring everything outside the room.
Joan didn’t make any noise as they were about to leave. She understood that they only abducted her under orders. However, there was a question which she wished to get to the bottom of it.
“Hey, who instructed you to abduct me?”
The leader of the thugs, who had climbed over the window, hesitated. In the end, he didn’t reveal Abelyn’s name to Joan. Given that the mission was aborted, they had to keep it a secret to save themselves.
