Female Novel
Chapter 1164
When he was outside, he saw that Sophia’s car was still there.
“Over here, Logan.” Sophia rushed out of the car the moment she saw him.
Tapping his forehead gently to sober himself, he then got into the car. “I wasn’t able to hold myself upafter being drugged. Do you know what’s happening outside?”
Sophia passed her cell phone to him and showed him the location tracking. “This is Miss Hunt’slocation. I think John and his men are already there.”
After taking over her cell phone, he started the engine and drove toward the location shown. Along theway, he didn’t say a word and kept his foot firmly down on the gas pedal. In fact, Sophia was a littleintimidated by the speed, but she was quiet about it because she was equally worried about Lola.
When they reached the location sent by Lola, she already saw that the place was surrounded by thepolice even before getting out of the car.
Well, well, looks like they kicked up quite a scene, she thought, but this wasn’t what they had initiallyplanned. In the beginning, she could vividly feel that John wanted to leave the Baileys with a way outand didn’t want to involve the police in this. Despite that, it seemed like things had blown out ofproportion now.
Next to her, Logan was just as stunned as her at the situation. There was something else he wasworried about, though—Lola’s safety. Jumping out of the car, Logan immediately dashed toward thefarmhouse, but the policemen at the yard stopped him and forbade him from going further.
Unable to heed the police’s words at this moment, he tried to break through the police barricade,saying that he wanted to check out Lola’s situation. Finally, out of their wits, the police had to send twomen to stop him.
Meanwhile, John and Lola weren’t in a much better situation. Even though the four men hired by theBaileys were not the smartest, they were quite skillful. John exchanged blows with two of them, butLola was overpowered, which left him with no other choice besides surrendering.
Thus, two of the four men, who had knives in their hands, were holding them down while the other twowere protecting Elder Mr. Bailey by his sides.
Gritting his teeth, Elder Mr. Bailey glared at John and hissed, “So you’re pulling this on me now?”
With a mean look, John spat, “I wanted to leave a way out for you, actually, but you pushed yourselfinto a deadend.”
A vicious and cruel look flashed across his face as he threatened, “Nothing can scare me anymore atthis age. If I can still take both of you with me when I go down, then I will have made a killing.”
John snorted. “Not only both of us, but you’ll even be bringing down the whole Baileys with you. Youmade more than a killing this time.”
Elder Mr. Bailey’s face sank at his words. Although he could risk his all, he wasn’t planning on stakingthe Baileys into it when everything he did was for his family.
From the very beginning, he was already prepared that he might not be able to get away witheverything, and he wasn’t afraid about that. At his age, he had seen and been through all sorts ofnovelbin
situations. Hence, this was just another event not worth his mention. In spite of that, he never thoughtto implicate his entire family in it.
John had to stifle his urge to laugh at the sight of his speechless face. “If my estimations are correct,the police are already at Bailey Residence. I don’t think your sons and granddaughter can be savedanymore.”
Tightening his jaw, he slowly shifted his gaze from John to Lola. It was beyond his imagination that asubstitute would appear out of the blue.
