BXBX NOVEL Chapter 42: Another Group
Realizing that he was dominated by silce, Lucas turned a. At this momt, he realized that the expressions on the faces of each and every person that was accompanying him was kind of funny.
"What is it? Spit it out immediately and stop being in a dilemma." Lucas stated with a frown on his face.
One of them hesitated before finally oping his mouth to speak. "Eh… Young master, the problem is that we cannot ask him about the information again. It is impossible for us to be able to do that."
Lucas' expression changed wh he heard that. "What the heck do you mean by we cannot ask him? Is there something that can be considered as impossible for me to be able to do in this small city?"
The person who had responded began sweating immediately. At this momt, he regretted oping his mouth to speak. It would have be better if he had left another person to speak out instead.
Nevertheless, he wt ahead and explained. "The problem is that the person that owns that house is the person that you ordered us to deal with a few days ago. Due to the beating that we gave him, we do believe that he has died by now."
Lucas' expression wt blank after hearing that. He had not expected something like this to happ. "So, are you trying to imply that the brat that we were looking for all this time is the one that I ordered for you to beat up?" Lucas asked with an awkward expression on his face.
"Yes young master." The guy responded.
"The heck! Why did you kill him? You were supposed to beat him up, but I did not tell you to kill him, did I?" Lucas was extremely furious as he asked. If this person was dead, that implied that he would have to go back without anything.
That was something that he didn't want to happ. No matter what, he had to produce results wh going back. So, no matter what, they had to get what they came for. But it was going to be an impossibility for them to be able to get what they came for, considering that the person that was supposed to give them information about where the item was, had already be killed.
The bodyguards that were following Lucas could not help but begin sweating. The momt that they hated and were afraid of the most was wh Lucas was angry. He would usually make some decisions, and it was not abnormal for a few people to be killed or have their limbs brok.
Looking at the expressions of his subordinates, Lucas' expression changed further. "Are you trying to say that I am the one that told you to kill him? If I remember correctly, I told you to get rid of him. I told you I didn't want to see him the momt that I got out of the club. Now tell me, where did I say that you should kill him?"
The group of bodyguards could not help but sweat. After all, at this momt, they realized that they were in deep trouble. In their minds, they were continuously screaming, 'Every time that you tell us to get rid of somebody, you usually imply that we should kill that person. So, just like always, we wt ahead and gave that person a beating, ready to kill.'
Nonetheless, of them tried to say that out loud. After all, if they said something like that, they might d up dead. Still, they did not know what to tell Lucas at this momt.
Lucas on the other hand was completely infuriated. Of course, he could tell what his subordinates were thinking. But nevertheless, how could he accept that he, their master, was at fault? The master is always right, right?
Additionally, who was he supposed to blame if he accepted that he was the one that was at fault? It was impossible for him to blame himself for this issue. So, he would have to blame somebody nevertheless.
"All of you, I don't care what methods you are going to use, but you better make sure that you find information about where that young brat wt to. It doesn't matter if you find him dead or alive, but I want to find him." Lucas immediately ordered.
The group of subordinates immediately obeyed. They rushed away, leaving behind only a single person. The person that was left behind was someone who had be silt all this while, and there was not ev a single shift of his expression during the tire time.
Lucas looked at him, but he did not say anything. Instead, he turned a and left the street. They had just be walking a, with him having the inttion of vting out and catching a breath, while trying to think of a solution that he would utilize in order to find what they were looking for.
But now that they had not found anything, it was better for him to go back. It was currtly nighttime, so, he would just go and look for a few girls to spd the nights with. That way, he could at least relieve his mind that was currtly burded with a lot of stress.
The subordinates on the other hand immediately wt a, asking for information about Jad. Of course, they had already got an information about him before they came over to this city, and they already knew where he lived.
But now, they would have to try and look for his whereabouts. So, they began questioning people, something that they did not do before. It was not long before they got information about Jad.
The problem was that the information that they had gott made them wonder if they had gott the wrong person. After all, previously, they had beat up Jad in such a way that it was impossible for him to be able to survive.
So, while asking a, they had be hoping to be able to find information about the dead body. But in the d, they actually found information about an alive person.
Ev though they possessed many suspicions, they did not hesitate to begin tracking Jad's whereabouts. That was wh they came to be informed that Jad had come back, tak the old man that owned the apartmt where he lived to the hospital.
Wh they heard that piece of information, they could not help but frown. The reason behind that was simple. Previously, wh they wt to Jad's house, they did not touch anybody. They did things discreetly, in such a way that it was impossible for other people to be able to realize that they were there.
But from the looks of it, not long after they had left, another group of people had come over. Th, in the d, day injured the old man. That was the reason why wh Jad came over, he immediately took the old man to the hospital.
Despite asking a, they did not get any clues on who it was. After all, if there was another person that came to Jad's house, it might be that they were looking for the same thing that they were here for. And If that was the case, that implied that they were definitely emies.
Immediately, they stopped looking for Jad for the time being, and decided to inform Lucas about their findings. But of course, they understood that it was going to be quite troublesome for them to be able to inform Lucas about this issue.
….
Jad did not know about the fact that there was a group of people that was looking for him actively this time. It might be true that he was expecting that, but he did not expect that it was not just a single group, but instead, more than one.
As for if there were multiple of them, that was yet to be se. But nevertheless, it seemed that each and every group that was looking for Jad's whereabouts was definitely quite dangerous.
As for what it was that they were looking for, Jad definitely did not possess any information about it. Simply put, he was clueless about the reason of them rummaging through his items in his apartmt.
The only clue that he possessed at the momt was the fact that this group of people might be related to the Williams. But nevertheless, he could not come to a conclusion considering that he did not find ev a single person.
After coming from the street stall, he wt back to the hospital. He decided to sleep within the hospital, in the waiting area. It was impossible for him to leave the old man, considering the condition that the old man was currtly in.
So, he found a comfortable position on the chair, before closing his eyes to sleep. Although he was currtly sleeping, his sses were active, and any form of disturbance would immediately wake him up.
As he slept off, something else was happing within the Johnsons. And Clifford was having a solemn expression on his face at this momt.
