Flipping over the man, Stanley immediately frowned.
Rebecca was also stunned and said, "He... Is not Harvey? Did he lie to me?" Then she thought of her son's safety and slapped the man crazily. "Say, where is Harvey? Had he deliberately lied to me?"
Though the man had been beaten by her repeatedly, he lay there without making any sound.
Pulling Rebecca away, Stanley motioned for her to calm down. How could Rebecca calm down? She sat on the ground, as tears rolled down. She murmured, "Harvey must have known that I lied to him, so he was not in the room... Nathan... Something must have happened to him..."
Tying the person on the ground, Stanley then called Jackson to explain the situation. Also, it reminded them to be a little more careful outside.
As soon as he put away his cell phone, Rebecca's cell phone rang. Taking it out, she looked at it. Immediately, she got up from the ground and said, "Stanley, it's Harvey."
With his face darkened, Stanley walked over and motioned for her to pick it up, "Let's hear what he's going to say."
Nodding, Rebecca took a deep breath and answered the phone, "Hello..."
"B*tch, how dare you lie to me!" Harvey's angry voice came from the line. "You don't have Stanley's body in your trunk. Don't you want your son alive? B*tch!"
The phone was on speaker. In which, Stanley also heard it. Immediately, he took Rebecca outside and mouthed to her, "Hold Harvey back."
"Mr. Wells." Rebecca understood what Stanley meant. She quickened her pace to follow him and said to the person on the phone, "I did not lie to you. Stanley is really dead."
"Since he's dead, why isn't he in your trunk?"
"Mr. Wells, are you looking at the wrong car? My car is black. The trunk can't be opened without the keys." Rebecca said a few words that he liked as she tried to stall for time. "Compared to Stanley's life, my son's life is more important than his. Mr. Wells, I'm not lying. Stanley is indeed dead. When he was in Beachmarsh City, he discovered my relationship with you, so I had no choice but to kill him..."
The two people quickly came to the underground parking lot. In the process of that, Stanley also contacted Jackson and ordered him to surround the parking lot. Harvey must be in the parking lot.
Several men rushed out. They were all men from the special forces. Their movements were swift and quiet, and there was almost no sound when they moved.
In the empty and quiet underground parking, there were faint sobbing sounds.
On the other side of the phone in a low voice, Harvey demanded, "Shut up, don't cry!"
Immediately, Rebecca shouted, "Nathan, is that you?"
With that, her voice suddenly echoed in the silence. It was too late for Stanley to stop her. Clearly, they heard Harvey shouting on the other side of the phone, exasperated, "B*tch, how dare you plot against me!"
Then, he hung up the phone in anger.
Following this, a child's cry rang out. Rebecca's body shook. It was her son's voice.
"Over there!"
Raising his head, Stanley saw a black figure running in the distance. Stanley quickly chased after him. With a deep voice, Stanley said to Jackson in his earpiece, "Your position, 10 o'clock direction!"
"Bang! Bang!"
"Bang!..."
Gunshots fired around the parking lot, the sounds were heart shattering.
Soon, Harvey was surrounded. He pulled the child in front of him. Then, he said with a ferocious and crazy expression, "Don't come over! Otherwise, I'll kill him!"
"Nathan!" Rebecca glared at Harvey. "Let him go!"
Sneering, Harvey glared at Stanley as he gritted his teeth and said, "Stanley, your son is in my hands. If you want him to live, let these people leave!"
Without saying a word, Stanley was expressionless as he raised his gun and aimed it at Harvey's head.
Shocked, Rebecca rushed to him, "What are you doing, Stanley?"
Taking a step back, Harvey was a little scared. "You... You don't want your son safe and sound?
With his cold and sharp eyes, Stanley's fingers moved, and he slowly pulled the trigger.
