"Boss, why is that so?" Jeffrey asked in a confused voice, though he had already begun making guesses of why that might be so.
"It is quite simple. From the information that we have, there is a great possibility that this kid called Michael Santos is related to the Santos family from the central province.
If he really is from there, and he ends up knowing about the plans that we have, everything will collapse. Additionally, if he is from there, we really don’t have the capability of touching him." Thomas’s voice ca from the other side.
Before Jeffrey could say anything, Thomas’s voice rose slightly as he asked, "Don’t tell that he is the one that is already sabotaging our plans?"
By this ti, Thomas had already realized sothing. After all, with Michael being involved with Annex supermarket chain, it was clear that he was related to the fall of the Kingsley family.
Thinking about the thods that were used, not just anyone was capable of that. But for those that were from the central province, they definitely were capable of doing it.
It was just that, this thod that was used, it was inevitable that only those that were extrely influential from the central province could do that. After all, that involved hacking into different platforms of different giant companies, sothing that not just anyone could accomplish.
Additionally, even if soone succeeded in hacking into those platforms, were they capable of bearing the consequences? Just by the fact that this kid called Michael was still here and well, it showed that his background was capable of handling it.
Thinking about this, Thomas no longer hesitated as he ended the call, intending to call Hudson, so that they could et and make arrangents on what to do.
Jeffrey on the other hand was stunned upon realizing that Thomas had already ended the call. He wanted to inform Thomas about what had really happened, but the other party had already ended the call.
In the end, he could only send him a ssage, to inform him about what had happened. As for trying to call again, Jeffrey already understood what would happen. Thus, he thought, it was better to just send the ssage.
Of course, to make it clear and faster, he decided to send a voice note, which would make it easier for him to be able to express what he wanted to an in his ssage.
After doing that, he gazed at Kevin, who was still seated, looking back at him. And the mont that he t with Jeffrey’s eyes, he averted his gaze.
Jeffrey did not say anything to Kevin, as he headed for the door. It was only then that Kevin realized that Jeffrey was leaving.
Even though he was happy that he had been saved, he was not willing to continue staying inside this room. That was especially if they ended up turning off the lights.
As for turning the lights on by himself, how would that even be possible, when he was tied to the chair? He could not even move around, apart from twisting his body slightly from ti to ti.
"Big brother, could you let go? After all, I have already inford you of everything that you wanted to know, right? Can it be considered that I have already completed the task that I was supposed to do?" Kevin hastily called after Jeffrey.
Jeffrey paused for a mont, but then again, he continued walking towards the door without looking back.
And just as Kevin was getting anxious, Jeffrey stopped once again at the door. And without turning to face Kevin, he said, "You are right about sothing. You are no longer useful, so there is no need to keep you here."
Imdiately after he said those words, he left, leaving behind the excited Kevin. He could already imagine that they would finally let him go.
As for what he was going to do after he was released, he had already thought it through. Even though he had previously lost his phone together with his clothes, he thought, they might be able to give him so cash. After all, he had provided them with so crucial information, right?
With that money, he would try to see if there was a small business that he could do, to start earning sothing. That way, he would be able to survive.
As for Michael, he felt that there was no need for him to worry any longer. Since these guys had asked for Michael’s information, it was clear that they had a grudge against him.
Therefore, they would be the ones that would take care of that brat for him. Even though he would not enjoy the thrill of taking revenge with his own hands, at least, Michael would still suffer.
While he was still fantasizing about what would happen later on, he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps entering the room again. He looked over, thinking that it was Jeffrey who had co back.
But this ti, he realized that it was a completely different man. The guy had long black hair that was tied at the back.
After seeing him, Kevin then thought of a possibility that this guy was here to release him. Thus, he began thinking of how to tell this guy to give him more money when he was being released.
As he was still thinking about this, he suddenly noticed that this guy had stopped in front of him. This made him confused, as he thought that the guy was going to untie him.
And as he gazed at the man, confused, he saw the man taking sothing from his waist. When Kevin looked at what we had taken, he was scared when he realized that it was actually a gun. It was a pistol, and it currently had a suppressor installed.
When the gun was suddenly pointed at him, Kevin was completely panicked. What was going on? Was he not supposed to be released? Was he not supposed to receive so compensation for the information that he had given them?
The guy who was pointing the gun at him seed to notice the confusion that was in Kevin’s eyes. This made him smile slightly as he asked, "What is it? Do you have sothing to say?"
"Big bro, why... why do you want to kill ? I-I have already cooperated with you guys, and give you all the information that you asked for from . And, didn’t the big bro from before just say that I no longer need to stay here? Was I not going to be released from here?" Kevin asked in a panicked voice.
While maintaining a smile on his face, the man licked his lips slightly as he said, "You are right. You have done quite a lot, and you really need so compensation. It is just that, we can give you the compensation, but you might not be able to use it. After all, we cannot risk soone knowing about what is going on here."
"Huh? Big bro, I swear, I will not tell anyone about being kidnapped, or what has happened here. I will take it with to my grave." As beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, Kevin quickly swore.
The guy continued pointing the gun at Kevin’s head, without retracting it. Instead, the smile on his face only intensified, as though he had just found sothing fun.
"Hmm... How can we trust you? Who can tell, maybe you are going to get kidnapped again, and if they point a gun at you, asking you to tell them everything that happened here, or they would kill you, what would you do?" The guy asked with a mischievous smile.
At this point, Kevin’s entire body was trembling. And to the question that he was asked, he quickly responded without thinking, "Big bro, I-I promise that I won’t let anything slip. I-I will only tell them that you asked about Michael, nothing more. Anyway... they-they don’t know what happened here, right?"
The smile on the guy’s face suddenly turned cold. Then, he said, "That is exactly what we don’t want you to say. The reason why you were brought here is because of that kid called Michael. So, if you end up telling them the reason why you were out here, would you not be ratting us out?
I’m sorry, but I can only send you on your way. But don’t worry, when we dispose off your body, we will make sure that we throw your body with a few twenty dollar bills. Maybe you will be able to use them in your afterlife."
"You brought here because of that kid? Is he the one who asked you to kidnap ? I promise, I will never get close to Kate. From today on, I don’t even love her anymore.
Can you please tell him that I’m no longer interested in Kate, so that he can let go? He has already destroyed my family, and I have nothing. So, this is enough punishnt already, right? There is no need to kill ." Kevin broke into a cold sweat as he quickly tried to fight for a chance of survival.
"Can you stop playing around inside there? We have things to take care of." Suddenly, Jeffrey’s voice ca from outside.
Kevin’s eyes suddenly lit up, thinking that this guy was here joking with him. But before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, he realized that the guy had not retracted the gun.
Click!
As the safety of the gun was disengaged, making Kevin widen his eyes in disbelief. And before he could even say anything, the trigger was pulled.
Bang!
