Chapter 352 - On Her Way (1/2)
Elizabeth has finally arrived at the estate where Little Yan should've been kept. Amazingly, she was surprised that the whole place was still in great chaos. She expects her father to have handled everything already.
”What's going on here? Hasn't dad handled everything, I mean, impossible…”
Elizabeth hastily advanced to the estate and saw the blood all over the ground. However, the bodies have already been removed. She found it odd why she can hear gun sound when the bodies are no longer around.
”Ha-ha, it seems I'll be having a good time tonight. Who would have expected that they'll all be gathering for me in one place? The best part, I don't need to hunt them down like a little rabbit.”
She thought that the people after the Yuns must have found out about what happened and decided to add fuel into all the commotion. Since the men presented themselves in front of everyone during the party even though they did nothing wrong. If something is to happen to the little girl, they would be blamed.
Elizabeth bent her neck from side to side as she stretched her body around preparing for a battle which she'd long for. ”Let's see what we have here.”
Instead of hurrying up and see what's going on, she decided to take her time and head slowly to the house. The reason she took her time is that she expects more men should be staying on guard and didn't want to be caught off guard once she steps foot on the battlefield.
...
Inside, the entire house was in even more chaos. Jaden and his force who took things lightly and avoided causing great damage to the house effort turned into nothing. The men who arrived showed no care for the damage they've done.
Since Jaden's force was taken by surprise, some of them ended up badly wounded but were all still breathing though some barely holding on.
One can't tell exactly how many arrived and attacked them.
The force was able to handle the group of mercenary easily. Compared to Scorpion and his men, they were weak and useless. They just hold a great number of men but nothing more to offer.
Just like the saying: It's not about quantity but quality.
Jaden was motionless on the top floor making sure Yun Shen makes his way down. He looked at Scorpion who was in a daze of everything and all shaken up.
Could their Young Miss really be here?
”Bravo team report, what's going on?” Jaden inquired through the micro earpiece attached to his ears.
”Sir, a group of mercenaries suddenly showed up. Most of the men are badly wounded, but we're all fine. Requesting to fall back and secure the wounded to safety?”
”Requested granted.” Jaden sighs in relieved to know that the person causing the ruckus was not their Young Miss.
Scorpio was curious when he notices the relief in Jaden's face. He went closer to him and inquired, ”It's not her?”
”No, it's not! I told you already, the Young Miss will not show up. Lord Knightley has assigned loads of men all over the community (meaning Jade Palace) and throughout the entire city, preventing the girl from reaching this place.”
”What? Why did you do that? That just makes her even want to kill us all now. You better check on those men. I'm sure, I'm sure they're all lying in the hospital bed by now.”
