Chapter 1171 Blinded by Infatuation
Neil suddenly knelt. "I-I didn't mean to. I got carried away for a moment."Vincent's eyes widened, filled with rage. "Get up and get to the point!"Despair was evident in Neil’s eyes. He was still kneeling, appearing utterly hopeless."Someone, help him up! What's the matter with you?!" Vincent roared in anger, looking at the driver. "Tell the truth!"Two plainclothes officers lifted Neil, his face already pale."A-A few days ago, I met a guy at a restaurant. We hit it off, and he's from out of town. He had an accent. He claimed to be unfamiliar with our small town, so we had a couple of meals together. I-I showed him around."Neil confessed to the process of how he got acquainted with Navi.Atlas extended his hand to Cane, who immediately flipped through his phone and handed it to Atlas.I didn't understand what Atlas was doing.Atlas's sharp gaze locked onto Neil as he handed the phone to him. "Take a look. Is this him?"He let Neil glance at the screen's photo.Neil nodd
Chapter 1172 Proven Helpful
Neil continued confessing, "He mentioned that he didn't have trustworthy connections in the north and needed someone reliable to manage things while he was frequently away.""Get to the point!" Vincent was infuriated."It happened to be my child's birthday, and h-he gave my child a gift, along with some money. Obviously, I couldn't act oblivious. I had to reciprocate. So, I helped him find a house in the Nomunal College residential area.""How kind of you!" Vincent scolded sternly. "Why did he give you 15 thousand dollars? You've really proven yourself helpful."With a mournful expression, Neil looked at Vincent, trembling with fear."He said he had a lot going on recently. After buying the house, he needed to renovate it. He asked me to oversee it and considered it compensation for my hard work," Neil explained. "I didn't do much. I helped a bit, and he paid for my efforts, and...""He's a suspect! You've been with me for so many years, yet you've broken the law!" Vincent roared
Chapter 1173 The Drivers' Group Chat
Vincent ordered, "Notify the Department of Transportation to track this vehicle immediately."Atlas said to Vincent, "Let's go to the Department of Transportation. It's faster that way."Then, he turned to Cane and said, "Get our people to cooperate with the airport security. We can't let him take the hostage away!"I looked at Atlas and asked, "Are you saying he's planning to escape?""He won't stay in this Bibury right now. After all, he's not familiar here," Atlas affirmed, "He has confirmed that the notebook is in our hands. He might be looking for an alternative plan."Vincent ordered to take Neil away, who shouted desperately, wanting to explain. However, Vincent ignored his cries and walked away with determined strides.I gave one last glance at Neil, feeling disdain for this man. He sold out his entire life and future for 15 thousand dollars.We followed Vincent out of the office, heading straight to the Department of Transportation.In the car, I asked Cane, "How did y
Chapter 1174 An Pessimistic Situation
"Wow, that’s a big job! What time can you get here? The handover team is planning to go at noon. Are you coming?" Another voice asked with a loud and coarse tone.A burst of laughter came from the other side. "It's okay, you're almost done. You guys go straight after the shift change, I'll be an hour behind.""Let me estimate the time. Isn't it just to the airport and back?" asked the voice on this end."Yes, directly to the airport and then back. I just passed Greenhill, so about 20 minutes more. You guys get ready, and I'll catch up after I return.""All right, let us know if there are any changes.""Got it."The announcements in the group ended. It seemed that the car had indeed left the city and was heading to the airport.Atlas immediately said to Cane, "Notify the airport to be on high alert. We'll head there right away."Vincent immediately told Atlas, "We'll bring our people with you. It'll help with coordinating with the airport people.""Then please switch to another
Chapter 1175 We Lost the Target
Suddenly, I remembered something. "Did Arnold find the notebook?""That's the reason I kept him at Pleca Park," Atlas replied.I felt a bit choked up inside, muttering, "It seems like Mom knew everything, but she didn't tell the truth."Atlas's phone rang. He answered, hearing Vincent's voice on the other end. He spoke into the phone, "The taxi turned into the city at the airport highway intersection and did not take the airport highway. We haven't located the target yet."As soon as I heard this, I became nervous. Did it mean they lost the target?While speaking, I saw that Vincent's vehicle had stopped on the side of the road.Mike quickly followed and stopped our car.Atlas hung up the phone and exited the car. I hurriedly followed.The staff from the transportation department also got out of their car, still on the phone. Seeing us approach, he quickly informed Atlas, "There's news. The taxi dropped off two passengers at the roundabout. Then they took a taxi to the capit
Chapter 1176 Airport Search
At that moment, Cane walked in, followed by a female executive from the airport. Cane reported, "We've checked the flight information thoroughly. So far, there's no record of Navi and George on any flight tickets.""They must have alternative identities," Atlas said with certainty.His words suddenly filled me with urgency. If they had successfully disguised themselves and slipped past us, would Navi be able to take both my dads?Feeling uneasy, I softly asked Atlas, "I don't understand. Why would my dad go with him? Isn't he afraid of us? There are so many people blocking his way. Is he underestimating our security checks?""Navi must have been prepared. They must be using fake identities. I'm convinced they’re in disguise," Atlas asserted. "Your dad must have followed him because Navi had many ways to threaten and coerce him."Threatened?Could my dad have a vulnerability when it came to Navi?Just then, a surprising scene appeared on the large screen, capturing everyone's at
Chapter 1177 No Need to Check Anymore
The two airport police officers who had intercepted them immediately reported to their supervisor. "They’re not passengers. Someone told them to do this."The middle-aged man looked nervously at us and stammered, "W-We don't know what's going on, it's just... He..."Atlas's voice turned icy as he asked, "Why are you here?""S-Someone paid us to do this." The man trembled under Atlas's intense gaze."Who?" Atlas asked sharply."A man with a southern accent. He's not very good at English," the middle-aged man replied.Atlas immediately showed him a photo of Navi on his phone.The man nodded eagerly. "Yes, that's him!""Where did you meet him?""At Northern Intersection 2." The man gulped nervously. "He said to just take a quick spin like this. I... I didn't know...""When you saw him, how many people were with him?" Atlas asked again."J-Just one." The middle-aged man stared nervously at Atlas."How many?" Atlas repeated."Really... Just one," He affirmed. He didn’t seem li
Chapter 1178 A Pass to Bermuda
When Mike saw that my dad was awake, he came over to shake his hand. As he spoke to my dad, he still had a lingering fear. "I was so worried, old buddy. This is all thanks to Mr. Atlas and his team. They arrived just in time. All that matters is that you’re safe.""Right after I got home, before I could even lie down, the real estate buyer came looking for me, asking about the property. He said there were some unclear details, so he requested that I go over it again... Sigh! I've made you worry."The brothers recounted the details of the kidnapping, apologizing to each other.When Atlas saw that my dad was improving, he consulted with the doctor and decided to fly back to Foswood. With that, we said goodbye to everyone.We boarded the plane through a special entrance and headed back to Foswood.My dad was quiet during the flight. Atlas and I didn’t ask him about it.
