Chapter 551: Dead end
[Eight hours ago]
"I don’t think it’s possible to cancel the event. Preparations have been made, and invitees have been sent. It will be a huge mess if we suddenly postpone the teaser launch" Franklin expressed his concern, sitting inside Tristan’s office.
Tristan sighed leaning against his chair. Things were so messed up that he found himself helpless. His brain wasn’t able to process the change of events occurring back-to-back.
Taking a moment, he then straightened up and agreed with Franklin. "Let’s go per plan," he said and soon Franklin left.
Tristan fell into a deep thought hoping things would go smoothly and Gavin would find Jenny safe and sound.
BUZZ...
Tristan’s thoughts were interrupted by a sudden phone call and he quickly darted his eyes toward the name flashing on the screen
"We have found the man. His name is Eric" Tristan’s eyes darkened as he heard the informer speak about the man who was none other than Richard’s driver.
As he went on speaking, Tristan learned that Richard was indeed captivated and he was the one who led him to the men.
Tristan further learned that Eric was threatened by those men who warned him to kill his wife and daughter if he didn’t do as they said.
Scared for his family, Eric what those men said, but before handing Richard to them, he noted down Tristan’s number from Richard’s cellphone and quickly texted him about the kidnapping.
" Uncle is indeed kidnapped" Tristan muttered under his breath
"Yes, boss and Eric even confessed that they were soon going to take him to their hideouts in Country X, to their boss, Lucas"
Tristan’s eyes darkened upon hearing the name. It was then everything started making sense to him.
Lucas never died. He fabricated his death and was indeed the person behind Sandra’s aid.
"I want you to track another person," Tristan said with his eyes turned cold like a glacier.
[Present]
Tristan made his way like a devil incarnated from hell, killing Sandra’s men mercilessly. His eyes brooding with extreme darkness.
Tracking Jennifer indeed turned out to be a huge help and he was able to finally break into this secret fortress, where Sandra and her little puppets resided.
"Kill everyone. No one should stay alive" Tristan ordered his men and soon they divided, speeding into different parts of the hideout.
Tristan wasn’t going to leave anyone. He had made up his mind and was now on a hunt to kill his most wanted enemy.
Sandra!
He had been secretive about his plan and waited for Jennifer to execute her task given by Sandra. He waited for the right time and tracked her until he was able to find this place.
Jennifer had been clueless about what was happening behind her back, however, his foolishness did help them find their main suspect.
Glancing at the camera placed on the corner of the wall, Tristan slowly made his way towards the top floor of the building. He knew the cameras were able to alert Sandra, and he wanted her to feel scared.
With quick steps, he reached the main room and kicked the door open.
Tristan’s eyes fell on Richard who was kneeling with his hand tied behind his back while his eyes wrapped with a blindfold and his mouth stuffed with a cloth.
A deep frown marred on Tristan’s face and he quickly marched towards Richard.
"Uncle" Richard’s ears twitched someone calling his name and he frantically moved his neck looking around.
Tristan kneeled before him and quickly removed the blindfold and cloth from his eyes and mouth.
Richard gasped catching his breath. "Tristan.. save Ashley. She took her away" Richard wheezed.
Tristan’s face darkened and soon one of his men dashed inside the room
"Boss, they escaped,"
****
Sandra dragged Ashley out from a secret pathway, along with a few men who managed to survive Tristan’s attack and escape the building.
She had foreseen her downfall the moment she saw Tristan breaking into her fortress, but she would never let him kill her easily.
She promised to eliminate both of them before she saw her end.
Bringing her phone close to her ear, she mentally begged Lucas to answer her call at least this once, but it was useless.
Throwing her phone aside, she looked at the unconscious woman on the side and clenched her jaw.
"Just wait and see how I kill you both" Sandra muttered under her breath when a loud gunshot startled her.
"Madame, we have been followed" Sandra’s eyes darted towards the back glass and she watched two SUVs tailing them.
"Drive fast" Sandra commanded the driver and he accelerated the car, trying his best to distract the following car.
Taking a sharp turn their car soon drove through the woods, pouncing over the pit and stones, and soon reached the dead end.
Ashley regained her consciousness when the car came to a sudden halt. Her head hit the back of the front seat and she pounced back.
"Shit" Sandra cursed as she watched the SUVs stop right behind them.
"Go handle them" she instructed the two men who gulped watching the army standing outside.
It was a stupid move knowing their life would end in no time, however, they couldn’t forbid their boss’s order and decided to tackle them.
The two men jumped out of the car and started shooting blankly however their life was cut short when two bullets hit them right into their skulls and their bodies met with the dusty ground.
Under the dark sky, with only the headlights of the car blinking, Tristan then climbed down from one of the cars.
Making his way through his positioned men, his deadpan eyes watched the car standing ahead.
They were currently on the top of the cliff and it was useless for Sandra to think that she would be able to escape him this time.
However, he couldn’t risk anything for now as he knew Ashley was inside the car and then his eyes caught the sight of his wife stepping out of the car.
"Ash" Relief washed over his face for a second and soon his eyes fell on the woman stepping along.
His body froze on the spot when he saw a gun pointed at Ashley’s temple and then he heard Sandra say...
