Chapter 498
Nicholas had already expected this. He did not object.
"Mr. Jackman, Misty was frightened today and it's already past eight o'clock. According to the recent record of body temperature at noon, especially at about twelve o'clock, the temperature is the closest to thirty-seven degrees. Tomorrow, after taking the body temperature, we'll discuss the matter of getting the password. What do you think?"
"Well, we'll do as you say!" Jackman agreed.
"I'll arrange someone to take you to rest! I'll send Misty back first and ask the doctor to examine her. After confirming her health, I'll get back to you." His attitude was humble, but a trace of cruelty was seen in Nicholas' eyes. He hinted to his subordinate by giving him a wink and then Leon spoke up. "Mr. Jackman, the room has long been prepared. This way, please!"
On the other side, Tigger also said, "Why are you still standing there? Go help the boss to rest! Go do what you should do!"
After that, Nicholas turned to the other side with Alicia in his arms and sent her back to her room. He checked on her nervously and asked.
"Did he hurt you? That pervert will die in the hands of a woman sooner or later! I've already sent people to keep an eye on him. I didn't expect him to be so unpredictable! Thank goodness you're smart!"
This Logan used his intelligence on this kind of thing!
Shaking her head, Alicia gasped.
"It was so close! I was prepared for everything, but I didn't expect him to knock me out. Sometimes, the simple and rough method is the most effective one! Luckily, he didn't hit too hard and I also put embroidery needles on my clothes!"
Fortunately these days, she was so bored in the room that she asked for cross-stitch embroidery and beads to kill the time, so she had many small needles.
If she was not cautious and had not taken some precautions, she would have been in deep trouble this time!
Pulling Nicholas' clothes, she seemed to lean into his arms. Alicia glanced at the door from the corner of her eye and said, "Nicholas, he seems to side with him more..."
"First come, first serve. I expected this! It's necessary for us to set him up next!"
"No!" While pulling him, Alicia shook her head, "I'm afraid you can't rely on women alone!"
According to the current situation, the time was too short and they couldn't wait until the arrival of Mr. Jackman and Logan to recover from his injuries. Originally, his injury could delay him for a while, but now if he lured them both according to the original plan, the time would be too short, which was not reasonable. He would only cause suspicion and might make things worse. Others would think that he had been framed and help him to clear his name instead.
"I also know that it's too much of a hurry! But if I miss this chance, I'll have to restart everything!" He said.
In that case, she would never have a peaceful day. Moreover, Logan didn't get to touch her that day, so he might long for her even more in the future! This was the bad habit of men!
"We just have to restart everything, don't we? Nicholas, you must rise up to the leader's position! A good leader is very important in leading the whole gang!"
If this kind of scum was the leader, there would be many more women being ruined by him. Whether it was for herself or for her brother, she would push him to the top! Mr. Jackman was not a good thing either. However, he was the local tyrant of this place and there was no need for them to provoke him!
"What does he care about the most? Let's start with what he cares about the most!" She suggested.
"Money! Or are you saying..." Nicholas thought of her.
He started shaking his head profusely. She held his hand and nodded heavily as she smiled.
On the other side, Holger led Trevor through the route and they stopped at the entrance of an alley.
"Trevor, it's the one in front! In order not to attract any attention, they detained the people in the back room! They haven't said anything on the phone! The old alley is a little narrow so our car can't get in!" Holger said.
After checking out the surroundings, he nodded and said, "Okay!"
They chose a good place. It was near the street, so it was safe and the customer volume could be guaranteed. It was also relatively closer to the inside, so the cost would be slightly lower. Therefore, it was really suitable to do this kind of Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
business.
Then, the two of them strode into the alley.
At the door, Trevor stood still. He took out a half black rubber mask and put it on his face. At the same time, he gave one to Holger.
"Do you know how to address me?" Trevor asked.
Knowing that he was trying to intimidate the other party and at the same time to hide his identity, Holger also wore the mask and nodded, "Young Master!"
Then, they pushed the door open.
Inside the room, there were two standing muscular men dressed in sportswear and a man tied up on the ground. He was slightly thin and his back was hunched. However, he looked very young. His dusty and dirty face was bruised.
They knew the rules. When they saw the attire of the two of them, they stood straight and addressed him in unison, "Young Master!"
One of them carried the man and the other handed him a brocade box, "Young Master, look! Is this the one you're looking for? This kid is very persistent. Up until now, he hasn't said a single word! He said he picked it up somewhere!"
After taking it, Trevor searched the box. The bracelet was right, but the box had been replaced by someone. He clutched it. He was very angry. "You do know how to pick it up! Where's the box?"
As soon as Trevor finished speaking, one man grabbed the man's collar and dragged him up, "He is asking you a question! Are you dumb?" He lifted his leg and kicked him hard.
"I don't know, I really don't know! When I picked it up, the box was already like this... Sir, no, Boss, please spare me!"
The man's hands were tied behind. He was half kneeling on the ground and constantly begging for mercy. He almost cried with snot and tears! "You've taken the thing! I don't want it anymore! Please let me go!
"This is worth at least 100,000 dollars! I didn't see anything! Please spare me!" He cried.
"You're so stubborn. I guess you won't give up unless your life is on the line!" The bodyguard warned him.
Brutally, the bodyguard raised his hand and punched him. When he raised his hand again, Trevor suddenly stopped him. Then, he took out a bunch of keys. With the clanking crisp sounds, he slowly stepped forward and said.
"100,000 dollars? Haha, you don't
even know that this is a diamond bracelet. How dare you ask for 500,000 dollars? If you dare to say that you didn't know that this was stolen, why didn't you go to a chain jewelry store? Young man, you are not being honest!"
Speaking indifferently, Trevor squatted down and slowly pulled out a small knife from the keychain. Under the lamplight, a glaring flash shone on the knife. He held the bracelet in one hand and swayed it while he continued.
"What a beautiful bracelet! If I say that it's made of glass now, it's worthless! ft doesn't matter whether you came here to sell or to pawn it Didn't the boss tell you that the value of the jewelry is not only in itself but also in the certificate of authenticity? Do you know how much this bracelet is worth?" Content belongs

As Trevor finished, he slowly drew an "X" in the air in front of him with the knife. Instantly, the man gulped and broke out in a cold sweat.
Of course, he knew that this bracelet was worth more than 100 million dollars! He had never seen so much money in his life!
It was more than enough to buy him ten lives!
"Without the certificate of authenticity, it is just trash. I can even say that it is a glass! Tell me, is it enough to buy your life?" The low voice was heard again. It was cold and frigid, as if it came from hell.
The meaning behind his words was very clear. The box was very important. Without the certificate in the box, the bracelet would become worthless and he wouldn't let him off either!
The subordinate shook the man and Trevor slashed the man's arm with his knife. His clothes were torn and a shallow wound appeared on his arm.
