“You are the granddaughter of my kind and benevolent grandfather?” The man, who was blond but spoke fluent Chinese, rested his full attention on Jane Gardner, his eyes full of examination.
“What are you?” Zachary Irwin, who didn’t like Jane Gardner being gawked at like that, gathered Jane Gardner into his arms and met his visitor’s eyes.
“This is how you conduct funeral ceremonies, it’s just shabby! In my family, such a ceremony is used by the servants.” The man did not directly answer Zachary Irwin’s words as he continued to walk toward Jane Gardner.
Then he bent down and pulled out an antique jade from the inside pocket of his shirt, which was identical to the one Lily Benz gave Jane Gardner.
“As much as I hate to admit it, I don’t want to come and pick her up myself, but I can’t help it, it was my grandfather’s dying wish!” The man raised his eyebrows and smiled to himself as he continued, “Jane Gardner, you are my cousin, my grandfather and your grandfather are waiting for you in Y at the moment, you need to come back with me!”
Jane Gardner took the antique jade he handed her and pulled out the one Lily Benz had given her, and the two were almost identical in shape and color and weight.
“What did you say? I’m your cousin? Your grandfather is my grandfather?” Jane Gardner had never asked Lily Benz about her family of origin, so she was completely confused about the man she met today.
“Yes, grandpa left from this country back then and later met my grandmother. Over the years, grandpa has been looking for your mother and we only recently found Lily Benz, but unfortunately, we just came over and she happened to pass away.
Since she passed away, you can only come back with me! By the way, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Lemon, you can call me Mon!” Lemon said, reaching out to Jane Gardner to make an inviting gesture.
“Sorry, we are not available in the near future, if you want to visit your grandfather, you can wait until we are free.” Zachary Irwin is still not sure what Lemon’s real purpose is; he’s not even sure if he’s Jane Gardner’s cousin, and there’s no way he’s going to let him take Jane Gardner so easily.
“Yes, I’m not available these days!” Jane Gardner had no concept of her so-called grandfather, and with Selena Lott still waiting for her at the hospital, there was no way she was leaving the country.
“But when you guys are free, I’m not free.” Lemon’s voice ghosted, then his body quietly took a step back.
And then, only to see him raise his hand, all the people behind him, then from the back of the waist pulled out a pistol on Zachary Irwin and Jane Gardner.
“Now, can you go!” Lemon smiled grimly, since he came over, there was no way he would return empty-handed!
Rudolf Bartley and The Shine escorts saw the actions of Lemon’s group, and they also pulled out their pistols from behind their waists to confront them.
“This is not your territory, and if you want to take people away from me, Zachary Irwin, you are not thinking outside the box!” Zachary Irwin stays still, he is calm and collected.
“Whether it’s whimsical or not, just try and see!” Lemon gritted his teeth, he could see that Zachary Irwin’s numbers were about the same as his own, but this wasn’t his territory after all, and he wanted to rob it openly with only half the probability of success!
Zachary Irwin heard Lemon say that and knew he wasn’t going to give up.
His grip on Jane Gardner’s hand increased in strength as he shielded her and turned to walk away.
At the same time, Rudolf Bartley and The Shine escort team together with their own bodies to protect Zachary Irwin and Jane Gardner.
Jane Gardner experienced the plot of the film for the first time, her heart in her throat, and her hands clenched into fists.
She did not dare to look back, her ears, all the muffled sound of the silenced gun and the sound of people falling to the ground.
“Don’t be afraid! We can definitely break out!” Zachary Irwin sensed Jane Gardner’s nervousness and he escorted her into the nearest car.
“Where are you going?” Jane Gardner saw Zachary Irwin was leaving, she grabbed his hand in a hurry, her eyes were trembling, she didn’t know what Zachary Irwin wanted to do, she was panicking inside, “I want to stay with you!”
“Don’t worry! I’ll be fine!” Zachary Irwin wrenched his hand out of Jane Gardner’s grasp as he told the driver to pull the car out and turned himself into the crowd at The Shine escort.
Jane Gardner clenched her teeth as she opened the door and got out of the car as well.
But when she was about to get out of the car, the driver unlocked the door, and the car started in an instant, and rushed out at a great speed.
“Stop the car! Stop the car now! Do you hear me when I tell you to stop the car!” Jane Gardner tried to open the door, but the driver wouldn’t listen to her at all.
She had no choice and was ready to arrest the driver, but just then, the driver gave Steven Irwin’s name.
“Mrs. Lin, I was sent by young master Steven to see you off, if you do it for the young master’s sake, you must stop struggling and I will send you to him!”
“Steven? He’s back?” Jane Gardner was instantly quiet as soon as she heard the driver was tapped over by Steven Irwin.
Only, she was still incredibly nervous at the thought that Zachary Irwin was still behind her.
Soon, the driver drove the car back to The Shine.
Jane Gardner had just entered The Shine when the car pulled up to the curb and Steven Irwin, standing by the side of the road, was waiting for her.
“Steven!” Jane Gardner saw Steven Irwin, who was much darker and taller, and she rushed towards him and held him tightly in her arms.
“Mommy!” Steven Irwin also raised his arms to hug Jane Gardner, only, soon, he pushed Jane Gardner away, “Mommy, the situation is urgent, too many words I can not explain to you, I can only simply tell you!
You need to hide with Daddy, someone is after me right now because of the chip!” Steven Irwin had a steady voice and a ruthlessness in his words.
These are things that the former him did not have.
“Someone is chasing you? What kind of person?” Jane Gardner thought about the chip on Steven Irwin, and she became even more nervous.
“They are some of the most wanted criminals in the international arena! But, don’t worry, mommy, I will soon solve those people, and, the problem of the chip, we soon solve it too! Without the chip, they naturally won’t be chasing me closely!”
As Steven Irwin spoke, he looked behind him, only to see the surgeon he had last seen – White Lightning – rise from the front of the car. He glanced at Steven Irwin, a little reluctantly, but finally walked over to Jane Gardner.
“Mommy, during this time, he will protect you and Daddy!” Steven Irwin explained.
Jane Gardner did not expect that not only was Bai Qingduan’s surgical skills superior, but he was also a member of the base with Steven Irwin!
“Steven, your daddy is in the cemetery right now, so hurry up and bring someone to save him!” Jane Gardner glanced at White Lightning as she pulled on his arm.
Once Steven Irwin heard that Zachary Irwin was still surrounded by people, he bristled, “I’m not saving him! If that many people can surround him, then he doesn’t deserve to be my daddy!”
