"Shut up! Otherwise, I'll make sure that Deborah won't live to see the next day! If I were to be struck down by lightning, I would drag someone down with me!"
Javion's words finally made Walter shut up, but Walter's eyes were extremely cold.
"You'd better pray that my wife is alright. Otherwise, I don't mind committing something that is against human ethics."
He didn't mention the thing specifically, but everyone at the scene understood what he meant. If Walter was pushed to the edges, he might murder Javion.
Nathaniel saw that Walter was so emotional, so he stepped forward and asked, "Where are my wife and son?"
Only then did Javion look straight at Nathaniel.
"It is best that you do not intervene in the things that I wish to do. Otherwise..."
"Otherwise?"
Nathaniel was also emanating an aura that was comparable with Javion's.
Javion slightly frowned as if he didn't expect Nathaniel to be so arrogant even though Nathaniel's weakness was in his hands. Javion then sneered and said, "I see that Mr. Ye doesn't love his wife as much as rumored."
Nathaniel didn't even bother to respond to his words.
At this moment, someone quickly ran in and whispered into Javion's ear, "Mr. Liu, Mango and that kid ran away."
"What?"
Javion was shocked.
This place was heavily guarded. How could a woman like Mango and a little brat like Zion escape?
No!
They must still be in the mansion!
"Find them! Leave no stone unturned!"
Hearing this, Nathaniel and Walter finally understood.
Walter sneered and said, "I see your despicable act of using a woman and a child to threaten us has hit an impasse? Where did you bring my cousin and my nephew to? Let me warn you, Javion. If you cannot bring them to us in one piece today, I will turn this place upside down and wreak havoc here. Try me if you dare."
Nathaniel's expression also darkened.
"Javion, you were the one who took them away from my mansion. Now that they're gone, shouldn't you give me an explanation? You don't want me to intervene in your affairs and capture my wife and son. We can negotiate and even have a chance to reach an agreement with them in your hands. After all, I am not a good person. It's not my business to give up my wife and son to meddle in other people's affairs. But now, where are my wife and son?"
Javion didn't expect that the advantage he had would turn into such an embarrassing situation.
Damn it!
Those people couldn't even keep watch on a woman and a child. Were they all useless?
"So, is Mr. Ye going to go against me now?"
"That depends on the condition of my wife and child. If anything were to happen to them, I wouldn't only go against you. I could tell you bluntly. No one would dare to stop me even if I brought this place to ruins."
Nathaniel emanated his domineering aura.
Javion's face couldn't look more awful.
Just as the men here were arguing endlessly over Mango and Zion, Mango and Zion, on the other hand, were a little lost.
They had crawled out of the room through the air vents, but they didn't know where to go. There were bodyguards everywhere looking for them thoroughly.
Zion looked down and whispered, "Mommy, how long do we have to hide here?"
At first, both of them were doing fine in the room, but Mango had other thoughts. Mango came here to find out Javion's weakness. As nothing ventured, nothing gained, that was why Mango played along with the enemy and came here with Zion. So it wasn't right for them to continue staying in the room.
She remembered what had happened before. The air vent was a good hiding place as most people rarely paid attention to it. Since the air vent was connected to all the rooms, it would be effortless for them to explore every room from above.
There were so many rooms here that it would take a lot of effort to find them from the ground.
The people below were still moving back and forth. Mango and Zion's legs were a little numb as they laid above.
