Chapter 619
As they were talking…
The phone vibrated in his pocket.
The phone rang like an explosion. Seeing the name on the phone, Kensley was so shocked that he almost dropped the plate
of rice in his hand.
Kensley hurriedly put down his plate and walked to a secluded corner to answer the call, “Hi…”
Pete’s sinister voice could be heard on the other end, “Doctor Learh, it’s already the fifth day today. How’s the progress?”
Kensley felt his scalp tingle. He stammered, “Mr. Logan, can you talk to President Yanice on my behalf? Please give me a few more days. Ive already made a move a few days ago. I was almost discovered. I don’t have any chance of making another move now. Don’t worry, I’ll think of something better. Ill work.”
Pete hesitated for a few moments before saying. Alright, I’ll give you another five days! If you still can’t settle it, you know the consequences!”
“I know, I know!” Kensley assured Pete.
After hanging up. Kensley was covered in layers of sweat.
In the afternoon, he was not in the mood to work.
He could only take sick leave and rush home feeling uneasy.
Now that the people around Bruce were on high alert, Kensley could not find a chance to kill him. Meanwhile, Marlowe was pressuring him again.
“I should just run away with my wife,” Kensley thought.
Back home.
Without a word, Kensley dragged out his suitcase and placed his passport and bank card inside,
“Hubby, why are you off work so early today? Why are you packing your things?” Kensley’s wife was stunned and looked at her husband in confusion
Kensley could not be bothered to explain. He urged his wife anxiously, “Honey, let’s pack up quickly. We’ll leave Greyport today. Hurry up and put your passport and valuables in! We’ll go to Pedrana for a while first!”
Kensley’s wife was shocked when she heard this. She thought that there must be something wrong with her husband.
“Hubby, are you running a high fever today? If you leave Greyport, what will happen to your work? What will happen to our
home?”
“Let’s not worry about that for now. Right now, our priority is to stay alive, Kensley said as he packed a few new clothes. “Pack your things!”
“Honey, what happened?” Kensley’s wife continued asking.
“Don’t ask anymore. In short, it’s a very tricky matter! If we don’t leave now, it’ll be too late…” Kensley retorted.
As he spoke, the doorbell rang.
*Ding dong, ding dong”
“There’s someone at the door. I’ll open it!” Kensley’s wife said.
Kensley quickly went forward to hold his wife back. “No, don’t open the door…”
“Dear, what’s wrong with you? I just ordered food delivery. It must be here.” Kensley’s wife replied.
With that she shook her husband’s hand off and went to open the door.
The security door opened.
Two tall and well-built men in suits stood outside the door.
“Who are you?” Kensley’s wife asked.
Pete chuckled, “Oh, we’re friends of Doctor Leach”
“Oh, come on in then!” Kensley’s wife invited.
Pete and the other man strolled in.
Kensley happened to walk out of the room with his suitcase.
When their eyes met, Kensley was stunned.
“Doctor Leach, why are you going out so late at night?” Pete asked.
“Oh, no, no…” Kensley muttered.
Kensley’s wife still did not know what had happened. She enthusiastically poured glasses of water for them and told the two, “Sit down and have a glass of water!”
“Thank you, Sister-in-law. You’re quite pretty. You’re seven months pregnant, right?” Pete smiled sinisterly while asking.
“That’s right!” Kensley’s wife replied.
“Congratulations!” Pete responded.
“Thank you!” Kensley’s wife said.
“Mr. Logan, why don’t… we talk outside!” Kensley stammered.
“No need. We just came to see you and Sister-in-law. I didn’t expect Sister-in-law to be so beautiful.” Pete replied.
A trace of fear appeared in Kensley’s eyes. He was at a loss for words “L, L…”
“What’s wrong? Is there a problem? Or is it too difficult for you to complete?” Pete said.
“No, it’s not. I’ll do my best.” Kensley tried to assure Pete
“Honey, what are you talking about? Kensley’s wife asked.

Pete continued to smile sinisterly, “Oh, we’re discussing surgery with Doctor Leach. Sister-in-law, don’t worry. Doctor Leach’s medical skills are superb
“Go to your room first. I have something to discuss with my friend. Kensley instructed.
。
“Oh, okay… Kensley’s wife said as she quickly went into the room, even though she was at loss. Her husband’s expression did not look good.
“Doctor Leach, are you trying to play tricks? Pete hollered.
“I think of a way this time. Please believe me and give me another chance. I’m begging you to give me another chance. I’ll think of a good idea,” Kensley said as he knelt on the ground.
“Don’t try any more tricks. We’re watching you at all times. We’ll know if anything happens to you.” Pete warned.
“Yes, yes, I understand!” Kensley tried to assure Pete.
“Let’s go!” Pete commanded his man as they walked away. Pere had successfully intimidated Kensley into obedience.
Kensley’s wife came out of the room and felt uneasy. She asked, ‘Hubby, who are they? Did you commit a crime? Tell me quickly!”
