Another one of his subordinates came and reported again, "There's a cocky old man out there, saying that h e is going to bomb this place to the ground if we don't hand Mrs. Poole over."
"..." Alex glanced at Jane and found that her expression seemed to have wavered briefly.
Huron, Cindy, and Orla, who were about to be dragged out and buried alive, started shouting in unison.
"Master Alex, I can make it up to you!"
"Master Alex, I know Lenny."
"Master Alex, Lenny is my man. I can help deal with him..."
"..." Alex did not respond to the three but instead raised his arm as a sign to his men. "Lock them all in the living room and follow me out to see what's going o n! If this is just another local scum like Huron, we'll take care of him as well so that I won't have to come back here to White Ocean again!"
After that, Alex took off his black jacket and handed it over to Garrett before lifting Jane up into his arms and wrapping her up with his jacket. He then headed out with her in his arms.
Jane's expression remained blank and she had completely stopped struggling because she thought
that she was going to die anyway.
Alex carried Jane outside the mansion and saw a man who looked even older than Huron, standing arrogantly beside his car.
Seeing that Alex was stepping out with Jane in his arms, the old man roared, "Where did an *sshole like you come from? I'mma chop you up to pieces, don't doubt it!"
