The Son-In-Law Shot to Fame novel Chapter 765

Aldrich then explained, “Susan's men have been active in Pollerton for such a long time, so her identity must have long been exposed. If we look for her now, we won't be able to remain in hiding.”

Realization dawned upon Alfred when he heard Aldrich's words.

After nodding, Alfred asked, “But then again, Aldrich, we can't just wait around like this. How should we proceed with the meeting if Xanathos and Susan do not show up? They're indispensable to us if we wish to complete the mission given to us by the Youngblood family!”

Those obvious facts did not escape Aldrich. However, based on his understanding of Xanathos and Susan, he did not think the duo did not pick up their phones because they were busy fooling around but rather because they had run into trouble simultaneously.

During his conversation with the special envoy of the Youngblood family back then, Aldrich noticed that even though the other party repeatedly insisted that it was a simple task in which all they needed to do was kill Jennifer, they did not disclose who was protecting her.

That could only mean two things: the Youngblood family did not know who Jennifer's protector was, or Aldrich and his men were just a tool they used to test the waters.

A thought flashed across Aldrich's mind. If the person protecting Jennifer really is a big shot, perhaps it would explain why Susan and Xanathos aren't contactable.

At that thought, he could not sit still anymore and pushed the woman atop him away. “This place is no longer safe for us. Let others know that we are changing locations now!” he suddenly ordered in all seriousness.

His words caught Alfred, who was munching on a piece of watermelon, by surprise. Staring at Aldrich in confusion, Alfred asked, “Aldrich, we just started staying here last night. Why is it no longer safe now?”

Aldrich grabbed Alfred's collar, spitting at the latter venomously, “It's. Unsafe. To. Stay. Here. We need to move immediately! Do you understand me now?”

Frightened by Aldrich, the latter nodded. “I-I understand now. Aldrich, I'll make the arrangements right away.”

The sense of unease in Aldrich's heart grew stronger and stronger. He felt like he had been preyed upon by some terrifying creature.

In the past years, he had escaped from the jaws of death multiple times by relying on his sixth sense.
