Chapter 714 - Trouble in LA Medical Center (4) (1/2)
~ LA Medical Center ~
At the back parking of the LA Medical Center, Jarred and Charlie got out of their car.
They have more than one dozen bodyguards with them.
Their bodyguards usually follow them from the distance, similarly how Jeff has his bodyguards arranged to watch him but to stay hidden. Because of the commotion in the LA Medical Center, Jarred told bodyguards to stay close. He is concerned about Charlie because he is in the wheelchair and not in a position to defend himself.
Charlie is on the phone, listening to the update from one of the bodyguards which they left with Sarah and Aiden: ”Three people escaped. They are dressed as LA Medical Center staff, and they took the staircase exit…”
Just as Charlie heard this, the door leading to the parking opened abruptly, and he saw one doctor, one nurse and one lab technician run out.
Charlie guessed that those are the troublemakers.
”Capture them!”, Charlie ordered his bodyguards.
Jarred was surprised for a moment, but soon he understood that these must be the people who were trying to harm Sarah's sister. He didn't stop bodyguards from going toward those three people who just ran out of the building, but he didn't allow Charlie to get any closer than he already is. Just in case.
…
Lazo, Simo and Mari ran as fast as they could down the stairs. When they reached the parking lot, they sighed in relief… they are out. But they need to get out of sight, because they don't know how many people are after them, so they kept on running.
Three of them were surprised to see number of people dressed in black suits approach them. They stopped in their tracks and observed their surrounding while trying to find a way to escape. They can't go back into the building, because someone is probably following them. And front and the sides are closed off by these bodyguards.
”These are probably Sarah's men.”, Lazo sneered. ”No wonder they told us to watch out for her. She got this exit covered. Smart. Smarter than I thought…”
”Based on their posture and way of walking, they are regular bodyguards with mediocre fighting capabilities.” Mari analyzed men who approached them. ”Even if they have guns on them, they will not use them easily in the broad daylight. And I'm sure this area is covered with video surveillance.”
”Taking care of them will not be a problem. There is only about one dozen… Four each. The one who takes out less than four, pays dinner.”, Simo cockily declared.
…
Sarah was on the first floor landing when she heard exit door close with a loud bang.
'They escaped…' , she thought and looked through the window outside. Sarah has no intention to continue her pursuit. Priority is to get Sophia out of here safely. She is not sure if these are the only ones, or if they have more companions within the hospital. Also, she told Aiden that she will not fight. But she wants to make sure that the troublemakers are gone.
”Why are they here?”, Sarah mumbled when she saw Jarred and Charlie on the parking lot through the window. Sarah realized that Smiths came to make sure that they are OK, and she was touched. They don't know each other so well, yet still they gave them four bodyguards as a support and even came in person. She concluded that they are nice people.
