Chapter 540
Frank cocked his brows and pressed, "Do you
Want to keep him company?"
Simone had always been a bit intimidated by Frank's arrogant demeanor. She instinctively took a step back, saying, "Since you know the antidote isn't something he can just give you, why make things difficult for us?" Frank was nonchalant. "That's not my concern."
"Alan, take them away."
At Frank's command, K reached for his weapon, intending to resist, but he saw that Alan wasn't coming towards him. Instead, Alan walked over to the sofa and lifted the unconscious Bethany,
K raised his gun and shouted, "What are you planning to do with her?"
"Frank!" Simone, increasingly panicked and disoriented, tried to reclaim Bethany but was kicked aside by Alan. "What do you want to do?" Frank straightened up, brushed off the dust from his clothes with his elegant fingers. "When you see the antidote, come find me for her." "You..." Simone knew he meant what he said and could only grit her teeth, warning him. "You mustn't lay a finger on her!"
Frank smiled. "That's hard to say. I'm not very good with a gun, and an accidental discharge isn't impossible."
With that, he and his men left with a flourish. The high-profile Bentley and several black sedans left as smoothly as they had arrived. Simone was so anxious that tears streamed down her face. She grabbed K's hand. "K, what should we do... What should we do?" "Don't panic."
K was also unsettled but tried to calm her. "He's after the antidote. He won't dare to do anything to Bethany before he gets it."
"You don't know him!"
Simone wiped her tears fiercely, her voice filled with anger. "He's always been a reckless man who doesn't care about the consequences! He might actually do something to Bethany. After all, Bethany and Charlotte have deep grudges, and he might be seeking revenge for Charlotte..." "K, think of something quick!"
Seeing Simone's distress, K couldn't sit still. He immediately said, "I'll call Jack!"
The black Bentley sped down the road.
Alan, driving, asked with some confusion, "Frank, I have a question I haven't figured out"C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
Frank, who had been pretending to nap with his eyes closed, lazily lifted his eyelids. "You want to ask how
I knew that Kevin had someone behind him?"
Alan nodded. "Yes."
"If he can avoid our surveillance and create such a commotion in Jeswood, it's not something a mere fugitive can achieve alone."
Frank glanced at the night outside the window. "Moreover, the patent infringement issue and this situation are most likely from the same person. But the patent issue happened before Kevin returned to the country." "But these two matters..."
"Seemingly unrelated, right?"
As Frank was about to continue explaining to Alan, his gaze fell on a shop, and a look of fondness appeared in his eyes. "Pull over."
Alan looked at the rearview mirror and slowly braked. "What's wrong?"
"This pizza store is Charlotte's favorite."
With that, the man who usually preferred to lie down rather than sit, and to sit rather than stand, had already gotten out of the car and walked straight to the wonton shop. Alan rolled down the car window: ".."
He had suspected it; one should never get caught up in a love-struck mindset.
Frank had just packed the pizza and was about to return to the car when Alan ran up hurriedly. "Frank, it wasn't long after we left that Kevin sneaked out!"
