Soon, the traffic jam that was caused by the accident slowly cleared. William breathed a sigh of relief and looked at his watch before asking Bobby, “Can you arrive before 12 o’clock?”
“Yes!” Bobby replied.
“Urgh… I wonder what’s happening over there.” After William finished his words, there was a phone call from one of his bodyguards. “Mr. Howard, something is going on. Lamont brought a man and went into the resort from the main entrance.”
“Huh? Lamont is there as well? Did he notice that there was something wrong too?” William was stunned. Lamont had always been alone. Why did someone accompany him this time?
“Who is the man that he brought along?”
“He’s about the same height as Lamont, and he’s wearing a cap and sunglasses. He looks like one of Lamont’s subordinates, but… but this subordinate has an… extraordinary aura.”
Was this extraordinary subordinate Archer? It couldn’t be!
What was Archer going to do with Lamont? Did he know that Raymond was in danger?
Archer had always been unfriendly towards Raymond, so it was strange that he was going to save him personally instead of sending one of his subordinates.
William came to think of Natalie in the building. Could it be that Archer had discovered that Natalie was in the resort, so he decided to go there personally?”
He immediately asked, “Did something happen in the building?”
“After Gonzalec and a woman went to the resort, only he left. The woman is still inside, but everything’s been quiet so far.”
“I see. Continue to keep an eye on the resort.” William hung up and felt much more relieved.
Lamont would help them if an emergency happened as he was good at fighting.
However, he could not figure out the purpose behind Archer’s visit? Did he go there to meet Natalie?
If that was true, what would happen next?
William felt uneasy. He sent Richard a message, “Archer is coming with Lamont. By the way, I heard that Natalie might be staying in a small building of the resort right now.”
Richard was shocked. “What? Are you serious? She’s not dead?”
“Yeah. I suspect that Archer already knew Natalie is here, and this’s why he came. If that’s the case, tonight will be interesting!”
“Does your wife know about her mother’s incident?” Richard asked.
“No, I haven’t planned to tell her yet. However, it’s a bit weird. Since Natalie doesn’t want to meet Valeria, I’ll pretend that I don’t know anything.”
“It was a small argument, but now it escalated beyond my expectations. By the way, nothing has happened yet. Did Savannah and Charles give up?”
“I don’t know. Continue to keep an eye on them. You’ve already changed their rooms, right?”
“Don’t worry! I will bring your wife to you safely,” Richard promised.
Lamont led Archer and went to Valeria and Raymond’s rooms. The guest room of the resort was located in a separate building. He suddenly stopped when they were still a distance away from the small building where Valeria lived.
Archer also stopped and said, “What’s wrong?”
“Someone’s here!” Lamont lowered his voice and dragged Archer into the bushes.
There was no doubt to disbelieve Lamont as Archer knew that he was always alert. They squatted in the bushes for a few minutes before hearing some soft footsteps.
A man dressed in uniform was walking quickly, and he seemed like a good fighter.
He stopped in the front of a small building and then entered inside quickly after looking around.
Archer lowered his voice and said, “He’s not a resort staff, right?”
“Yeah, he’s definitely not a staff member. ” Lamont nodded. He was shocked after seeing the house number of the building. “President, Raymond is supposed to stay here tonight.”
Archer was worried as they had just seen a suspicious man sneaking into Raymond’s room. Even a fool would know that a terrible event was about to unfold.
“Shall we go to have a look?” Lamont asked.
“No!” Archer shook his head and said, “Let’s see what he is doing inside first. I don’t think he’ll stay for a long time, right?”
“Hmm… I’m not sure.” They squatted in the bushes for half an hour, but the man never left.
Lamont insisted on going inside the room, but Archer stopped him. “You don’t have to go by yourself. How about this? Call Ephriam and ask his staff to have a look.”
Lamont nodded. “How did he get in? There are so many security guards outside, and the security is so strict. It’s difficult to enter even if he’s wearing the staff uniform. They’re going to discover him easily, right?”
“Maybe there are other entrances?” Archer guessed.
“If so, there must be more than one person coming!” Lamont looked at his watch. “President, 40 minutes have passed. It seems that he’s not going to leave. Why would he stay so long inside for no reason?
“Yeah, I think so too.” Archer nodded. “Send a message to Valeria to ask her to stop Raymond from going back to his room. Let’s go to take a look at her room first. It’ll be troublesome if there’s someone hiding inside.”
Lamont picked up his phone and sent a message to Valeria. “A suspicious man entered Raymond’s room just now. Miss, make sure to delay him from going back to his room and stay outside with him. I’ll send you a message if something happens.”
Valeria replied quickly and said, “Okay! Where are you?”
“I’m going to check your room to see if there are any potential threats,” Lamont replied.
“No need. Raymond and I already changed our rooms.”
Lamont was stunned after reading her message. Did both of them know that someone was coming?
He showed the message to Archer. Archer thought for a while and said, “It seems that they are well-prepared. We don’t need to check the rooms nor inform Ephraim. Just let them be.”
“What shall we do next?” Lamont asked.
“Let’s look around and find out whether there are any loopholes first. I can’t believe that they sneaked in so easily!”
Lamont nodded. “Okay. Then, let’s investigate around, but the resort is too large, I’m worried that accidents will happen since it may take a long time to check it out.”
“Let me think about it first as I’ve been here before.” Archer thought for a moment.
“There’s a building in the east of the resort. I was there last year, and I know that there is a gap which leads to the main road directly. No one will normally notice it, so people can slip out easily after doing whatever they want.”
Lamont immediately became spirited. “Let’s go to check the gap immediately! Maybe we can find the people who are working together with them and then catch all of them!”
