Love Contract novel Chapter 287

Barry scratched his hair angrily and asked, "Who is Corbett?"

"He is a Japanese." A hint of disappointment flashed in William's eyes. If he had any connection with this man, it would be because of Frank. Frank Liang again!

"Look!" Aisha stopped the video and pointed at a scar-faced man who was commanding the other men. "This man's name is Dixon. He is Corbett's bodyguard. Corbett is the young lord of Shadow Organization in Japan."

"And then?" Victor looked at the crowd and asked, "What does Mary have to do with this fucking gang? Why did they take Mary and her two children away?"

"I don't know." Aisha shrugged.

"Who the hell are you, Jazlyn?" Lucas whispered in Jazlyn's ear. "What do you do for living?"

She glanced at him and answered, "Why should I tell you?"

"You..."

Lucas did not say anything more. He turned to the screen and watched as another figure ran from outside of the church, shouting Barry's name hoarsely. "Barry! Barry Gu!" With tears on her face, Selah ran to Barry, grabbed his sleeve, and cried, "Ray... My Ray was taken away!"

"Alright!" Aisha shrugged and said rudely, "Here comes the leading lady of Barry's scandal."

"You..." Looking at Aisha, Selah was stunned. She quickly let go of Barry and said in a trembling voice, "Manager Lu, I..."

"I'm not my sister." Aisha rolled her eyes at her and explained, "I meant, I'm not Mary Lu."

"Then who are you? How could it be possible?" Selah widened her eyes in disbelief.

"All right!" Before Aisha could explain further, Barry interrupted her. He frowned deeply and said to Selah, "It doesn't matter who she is. What matters is why you are here. Why did you bring Ray here? What did you intend to do?"

"I wanted to..." Selah swallowed hard and continued, "I wanted to see you get married."

"You are out of your mind! What were you thinking? Now you've put Ray in danger!" Barry scolded her with anger and anxiety. Did this stupid woman bring Ray here to see his father get married to another woman?

"I..."

"Barry," William suddenly interrupted their conversation and asked nervously, "have you walked on the aisle with Mary? Have you finished the ceremony? Are you married already?"

"We... No, we are not married," Barry answered with difficulty.

Swoosh... William took a deep breath and said, "So you didn't get married. You cancelled your wedding, and then Mary and the children got abducted. Also, your child was taken away with my kids. Is this the case?"

Barry stared at William and nodded slowly.

"What we need to do now is to rescue them," Archer, who had been silent for quite some time, suddenly suggested.

"Should we call the police?" asked Ena weakly. She looked around and found that everyone was looking at her as if she was a monster.

"Well..." Aisha raised her eyebrows and answered, "Of course not."

"We don't need the police. We can go by ourselves," Lucas answered while rubbing his hands together.

Hearing that, William felt uneasy. The last time that Alick and Elissa were taken away by Frank, he almost died. This time, they successfully got Mary as well. However, William thought that if something were to happen to her, he wouldn't live alone.

Ding! As everyone was about to set out, their phones rang at the same time. An MMS notification popped on their screen.

The group took out their mobile phones all at once.

"Game Starts."

There were only two English words on the message. Attached below was a photo of Mary. In the photo, she was still wearing the wedding dress, but her hands were tied. In her mouth was a piece of cloth to keep her silent. Her hair was messy and cold sweat beaded on her forehead. In her eyes was a look of fear and panic.

"Mary..." William clutched his phone so hard that his knuckles turned white.

"A game? Fuck you!" Lucas almost threw his phone away in disgust. "This man is really sick, isn't he?"

"What game is he playing?" Jane had not calmed down and she murmured, "Does he want us to watch how he kills people?"

As soon as Jane finished her words, several eyes shot her a piercing glare. Frightened, she stopped talking at once.

"Mary will be fine," reassured William firmly. This sentence was for everyone, including himself.

"Corbett!" Aisha bellowed through gritted teeth. She put her hands together and cracked her knuckles threateningly. "I won't let you go this time!"

Even though Aisha looked scary, Archer looked at her with gleaming eyes.

Their phones rang again, and they took them out quickly.

"Guess where they are?" There was another sentence on the message, and attached below were photos of different places. There was an old warehouse, a steep cliff, and a surging sea. All those places were desolated and ideal for killing and dumping dead bodies.

They stared at their phones in silence.

"Split up and move?" Barry suggested. "There are several places in the photos."

"His purpose is to separate us." Aisha's eyes narrowed dangerously and added, "I'm afraid we would fall into his trap if we split up."

"Then what should we do?" asked Lucas anxiously.

"We have to locate his position first." Looking like a fearless general, Aisha responded in a calm voice, "We must know where my sister is now. We can't be tricked by doing something without any preparation."

"Then how can we locate her?" asked Victor. "We can only analyze their route," answered Jazlyn. "Maybe we can find some clues from the photos, but it would take too much time."

Hearing this, everyone fell silent again.

William had been quiet for a long time. Once again, because of him, Mary and the children fell into a desperate situation. His self-blame made a fire in his heart, almost turning it into ashes.

He would never let anything happen to Mary, absolutely not!

Due to the silence, Selah calmed down and an idea appeared in her mind. "Well, I... I may know where Ray is."

"What?" Hearing this, Barry asked anxiously, "Why didn't you tell us earlier? Where is he?"
