Chapter 562
Something came to Quincy’s mind. “By the way, Sue has been coming to see you for the past few days. I’m not
sure how she found out that Mr. Vanderbilt framed her about the vaccine, and she told Elder Master Goldmann
about this. He believes her and blames Ms. Vanderbilt for it.”
Nolan paused what he was doing and turned sideways, his eyes looking dark and lonely.
A silver-white car slowly drove into the yellow poplar forest. The wide lawn and the rows of tall poplar trees looked
like an oil painting under the bright blue sky.
This beautiful yet secluded area was where Adrian lived.
Saydie parked the car outside a three-story tall villa with its own lawn. The doors were tightly shut.
Maisie got out of the car, Saydie rang the doorbell, and someone came to the door after a long time. The man
looked out from behind the door and asked, “Who are you?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Is Mr. Kestner in?”
“No.”
Saydie suddenly kicked the door as the man was about to close it.
The man took out a gun to defend himself, but Saydie immobilized him on the floor immediately, took his gun, and
pointed it to his head. Saydie knocked the man out upon hearing movement upstairs and entered the villa with
Maisie.
There were signs of a struggle in the house. It was messy, and there was blood on the floor.
There were signs of movements upstairs, so they both rushed toward the study. Saydie kicked the door with a gun
in hand, but all they saw was Jones tied to a chair. He had kicked over a vase to make some noise.
Maisie was surprised. “Mr. Smith?”
She immediately went forward to untie him and removed the tape over his mouth.
Jones was out of breath when he finally got to speak.” Roger’s people took my uncle. They wanted to keep me here
so that I couldn’t report it!”
Saydie put her gun away and frowned. “I guess Mr. Goldmann was right. Roger wasn’t going to let Mr. Kestner get
away.”
They were still too late..
Maisie helped him up and saw blood gushing out of a wound on his calf. “Are you alright?”
“I’m fine. By the way, how did you get in? That man-”
Maisie cut him off. “Saydie knocked him out. You need to get to the hospital. We’ll send you there.”
Saydie drove toward the nearest hospital in the city. Jones turned paler by the minute in the car. Blood kept gushing
out, possibly because of compression of blood vessels, and a big part of his pants was soaked.
Maisie wrapped a cloth around an inch above his wound.
Jones looked at her and smiled weakly. “I’m glad you showed up. I thought I was going to die there.”
Maisie looked at him. “When was Mr. Kestner taken?”
He answered, “An hour ago.”
The men had taken him away after rushing in and fighting the bodyguards. Jones had realized that something was
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwrong when he came to see Adrian and was ambushed when he got through the door. He had already been tied up
by the time he woke up. That person had been keeping an eye on him because he was afraid that he would report
it.
That person had had to leave upon hearing the doorbell, so Jones deliberately broke a vase, but it cut his calf when
it shattered.
At the hospital…
The doctor immediately helped Jones stop the bleeding while Maisie waited outside.
Saydie walked over after making a call. “Ma’am, I’ve informed Mr. Goldmann about this. He has sent someone to
save Mr. Kestner.”
Maisie nodded. Since no one knew Nolan’s status and it had been chaotic, Roger had been cornered and couldn’t
do anything to Strix. Still, he could take it out on Adrian.
