“Shhh ……”
Edward Ford immediately appeared in front of him and gestured to him.
Mason Bush looked along, but saw that a car had pulled up not far away at some point, and inside the warehouse, not a single sound of movement could be heard.
Edward Ford dropped his hand and instead landed heavily on his shoulder and said in a deep voice, “You want to save Elena?”
Mason Bush nodded subconsciously, “Yes!”
“In that case, then you’ll listen to all of me and pretend nothing happened, nothing at all.” Edward Ford looked him in the eye and said one word at a time.
Mason Bush still nodded, “Okay, whatever you say, absolutely no resistance!”
The latter gave him a deep look.
Jacob and Zach Stone had stood at the duo’s side at some point, nearly startling him.
Edward Ford immediately glared at him, “Don’t make a fuss, Elena is still in Jacqueline’s hands and you need to make sure she doesn’t shoot!”
“I know.” Mason Bush nodded, a little sweat seeping out of his tightly squeezed palms.
The two men exchanged a look with each other, understanding what was meant.
Jacob and Zach Stone each went off to find a time when they could strike, and Mason Bush went straight back to the warehouse.
When he saw Jacqueline again he was calm, “Edward Ford’s parked the car outside, let’s go.”
Emma Bush quickly moved her wheelchair forward and Jacqueline pulled Elena Bush outside, when she suddenly remembered something and stopped dead in her tracks, “Wait!”
Mason Bush’s heart thudded, but he pretended to be calm, “What’s going on?”
“There’s too many people.” Jacqueline grinned, “I couldn’t fit Emma Bush and her wheelchair in the car I drove up in!”
The joy on Emma Bush’s face froze suddenly, “Jacqueline, what do you mean! There’s only so many of us here, how can we not fit, did you do that on purpose?”
“I did it on purpose, so what?” Jacqueline admitted bluntly.
Emma Bush glared at her so hard it almost burned a hole in her face!
Jacqueline nodded, “Whatever, you stay here for now and we’ll come back for you when we’re done.”
“No way!” Emma Bush couldn’t help but get goose bumps just imagining the thought of being in this remote place again, and with the night already upon us, she wouldn’t be willing to say yes, no matter what she said.
Mason Bush hesitated for a moment and said, “Okay.”
“Dad, why even you ……”
“Emma!” Mason Bush looked over at her, “Jacqueline’s right, I won’t be able to look after you when the time comes, so it’s safest for you to stay here.”
“I don’t want to!” Emma Bush shook her head violently, every cell in her body resisting.
Mason Bush took a deep breath and stepped forward and knelt down in front of her and patted her palm saying, “It’s okay, we’ll be back soon, we’ll come back for you.”
“I don’t, I’m scared ……”
“Emma, you’re going to face Logan Brown, no one can predict what will happen, so be a good girl and stay here and wait for me.”
Emma Bush was reluctant, but Mason Bush’s words had come to an end, and she had no right to refuse.
In the end, she nodded in compromise.
Relieved, Mason Bush got up and walked over to Jacqueline, “I’ll watch her.”
“No, I don’t trust you right now!” Jacqueline coldly refused his request, tugging Elena Bush’s hand herself and heading out.
Elena Bush’s wrist hurt from her tugging, and her heart clenched in pain where she had been hurt earlier.
She shook her hand away, blushing, “I can walk on my own, you don’t have to pull me.”
Jacqueline looked down at her blood-stained palm and said nothing after all, silently withdrawing the hand that was trying to tug at her again, except that the pistol had never been moved.
In the shadows Jacob and Zach Stone looked at each other and shook their heads.
In this situation, if they acted, they were afraid Jacqueline would go off and the gun would be aimed at Elena Bush ……
Jacqueline got into the car naturally, her eyes swept around, suddenly sensing something was wrong, and her face sank, “Whose car is that!?”
Edward Ford looked in the direction she was looking and immediately saw the car Logan Brown had just parked.
“That’s the one I drove here.” He said sincerely.
Jacqueline remained unconvinced, a quick flash of doubt under her eyes, followed by an immediate grit of her teeth, “No! That’s Logan Brown’s car, he’s here!”
He said, his suspicious eyes sweeping over several people with a wary look on his face, “Say, did one of you tell Logan Brown where we are!”
Mason Bush immediately shook his head, “Not me! I’ve been with you the whole time, how could it have been me?”
The gun snapped at Edward Ford and Jacqueline gritted her teeth, “So, it was you!?”
“No.” He shook his head in the same way, “I told you, the car was mine.”
“How can that be, Logan Brown has one exactly like it! He’s been in and out of the Browns countless times, how could I possibly be mistaken?”
Edward Ford, his face still subdued, said just as lightly at this point, “If you don’t believe me, go and see if there’s anyone in that car, if Logan Brown is here, he’s confined to a wheelchair and can’t get around at all, there’s no way he’d get out.”
Jacqueline hesitated for a moment, then her eyes fell on Mason Bush, “You go!”
“Me?”
“Yes! You go and pull open the door so I can see if there’s anyone in the car or not!”
Jacqueline’s words were like an order, not giving him any room to refuse.
Mason Bush had no other choice but to meekly get out of the car and Jacqueline didn’t forget to warn him, “I’m telling you, don’t play any tricks or I’ll be rude!”
Mason Bush glanced at Elena Bush, but saw that her eyes were blank, unsure of what she was contemplating.
Jacqueline’s nerves were on edge and her eyes were fixed on Mason Bush, fearing that the moment he opened the door, someone would appear who she least expected to see at this moment!
The moment the door was opened, everything inside the car was exposed for all to see.
Jacqueline narrowed her eyes and leaned in closer to get a good look at the car.
Edward Ford, seeing her negligence, bellowed angrily and locked his hands directly around her neck, holding her straight down raw and heavily yanking her head against the window!
