Chapter 646 The Way Out

"Big mistake," Jacob said as he stood up, paced back and forth in front of the camera,

"Do you know what Spencer is like? Do you know anything about his background? We can deal with him in the dark, but we can't use this kind of no retreat way to confront him. He is ruthless. Once he finds a loophole to escape, he will never let you go! Nia, your life is in danger!"

"Jacob, don't make it sound so bad... you're scaring me..." Nia said in a trembling voice, clutching her heart.

Jacob sat down in the chair and stared at Nia's frightened eyes. After a long silence, he said,

"Do you know how Poppy died?"

"Poppy?" The sudden mention of the long-dead, long-forgotten woman caught Nia off guard, so she followed Jacob's lead and said,

"How did she die?"

Jacob sat up straight, sighed heavily, and told Nia that Spencer had conspired with him and that he had sent a sniper to kill Poppy. After that, he looked at Nia, who was pale, and said,Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

"It's my fault I didn't tell you everything earlier..."

"Are you saying... that Spencer killed Poppy?" Nia's eyes were filled with fear. She knew that Spencer was ruthless, but she had never thought that he could actually kill Poppy!

"Yeah, what you're doing right now is getting in trouble," Jacob said. "Even if Spencer is convicted of rape, he'll get ten years at most, but he still has power out there. It's easy enough to silence you. No..." Jacob's face darkened again. "Maybe by now Spencer will have sent someone..." he said grimly

With a loud clatter, Nia's hand shook and broke the cup by the computer. The cup fell to the ground and shattered, just like her sanity, which had long since shattered into dust.

"Jacob..." it was a long time before Nia found her trembling voice and asked, "What am I going to do now..."

Jacob stared at Nia who was poor, frightened, and cursed that she was stupid.

He couldn't go back to the country now, so he had to keep a low profile, hide his talents, but act out relying on this woman. She was so stupid that she violated Spencer's principle and almost ruined his success, but fortunately, there was still room for redemption.

Although he felt bad about it, on the surface Jacob was trying to comfort Nia,

"Don't be afraid. Spencer is still at the police station, and you're the victim. To attack you now would be tantamount to admitting. He won't do it rashly. There's still room for negotiation."

Nia calmed down a little when she heard Jacob's words. She leaned over the table anxiously and approached the screen to ask Jacob,

"How?"

"You're gonna have to find someone else for this..." Jacob thought for a moment, then looked up at Nia and said.

"Jacob, I'll do whatever you want..." Nia was no longer in a position to make any decisions, so she quickly agreed to be submissive to Jacob.

After telling Nia about the plan that he had just come up with and telling her to lay low, Jacob hung up on her, and as soon as he cut off communication, he threw the keyboard aside in anger. "Stupid woman!" He just suppressed her anger. Now he was venting out.

"Boss, what's going on?" While Jacob was complaining about Nia, his recently acquired trusted subordinate Leon appeared behind him and asked in concern.

"Nothing. Nia has no brain and doesn't have enough strength to mess with Spencer."

Leon, also a citizen of Athegate, had come to USA to work in the early years, but he was never successful. As time went on, he began to steal things, and Jacob met him on the run. The two of them hit it off, so they got together. Jacob told him all about himself. Leon tried to make things right for him, and Jacob got all the men he could.

"Nia acted impulsively, and it would be too risky for her to take all the responsibility for revenge..." Leon mused.

"I know, but I can't go home right now, and I can't control her every move," Jacob said helplessly.

"Okay, forget it. I heard there's a new chick at Club Zoid. Let's go have some fun and think about the rest later," Leon, who had always known how to soothe Jacob's feelings, suggested.

"That's fine," Jacob said. He stretched and stood up. "Spencer's going to call Dan back if something happens. I'm safe for now. It's good to go out."

"Don't worry. I'll have my men check out the neighborhood, so don't worry about tonight," Leon said, smiling as he put his arm around Jacob's shoulder.

"Let's go!" Jacob's spirits brightened and he and Leon headed out the door.

It was night, in Vallentyne Town, on the border of Texas and Mexico. The cold wind of the middle of winter didn't affect the people in the bar, where the lights were shining, and the coquettish dancers climbed up to the bar and stirred up the emotions of every man present.

"So, did I tell you this chick is good?" Under the bar, Leon said to Jacob, who had been drinking a lot, with a smile on his face.

"Yeah..." Jacob burped drunkenly and reached out to grab a dancer's ankle.

The dancer lowered her head and gave Jacob a disapproving glance. She bent over and left a red lipstick mark on his forehead. Then she began to move her body recklessly. The atmosphere in the bar rose again.

Jacob was just about to continue climbing onto the dancer's body when someone suddenly tugged his shoulder. He was half-lying on the bar and almost fell down. He was furious, and he raised his hand to throw it behind his back, but it was blocked by someone's hand.

Leon next to Jacob took a closer look. Wasn't that one of the bartenders from the bar? Because he was also the citizen of Athegate, he just looked at him a few more times.

"What are you trying to do to our boss, bastard?" Leon asked angrily, grabbing the bartender's hand
