Chapter 799 Arthur's speculation

"There's no hurry?" Erik wondered.

"No hurry..." Spencer replied complacently, deliberately leaving a suspense.

Lucia hadn't gone far enough...

Spencer's unexpected calm surprised everyone, but at this time the Amasun's assets had been frozen and Erik was directly on the wanted list. "Arthur, have you figured out why Spencer hasn't done anything yet?" Otis finally asked Arthur, three days after the Amasun Group disaster.

Arthur nodded slightly, with heavy mood.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

"Arthur, why?" Sophie, who had lost her composure, asked Arthur anxiously.

"Because Spencer is stalling." When Arthur couldn't answer, Edwin answered for him.

Otis's brows furrowed at once, and he looked concerned. Sophie, before she knew it, continued,

"Stalling?"

"The last time he hid Lucia and the baby in the mountain villa near the city, although he thought it was safe, Casper found it. So this time, he will send Lucia and the baby further away, at least for a short time won't let us find them," Arthur explained, and that was why he was in so much pain.

"How could it be..." Sophie's heart skipped a beat and she felt a little dizzy.

Edwin quickly put his arms around his wife's waist. He was full of consolation, but he couldn't say anything. The situation was indeed bad for them, for Lucia and the baby, and he wouldn't presume to know anything.

"Otis, I have a favor to ask of you," Arthur said suddenly.

"Speak," Otis said at once.

"Jack and the others are almost recovered from their injuries, and I need to stay here to discuss with Mr. Brown and Mrs. Brown the negotiations with Spencer. So I want you to take them to Lucia." Arthur's eyes sparkled and seemed to have guessed something.

Sure enough, Otis noticed immediately and pressed,

"Arthur, is there something on your mind?"

"It's a one-in-10, 000 chance, but it's the best guess for Spencer's behavior. It's not safe on land. He's not going to risk leaving Lucia and the baby anywhere where they might be found. Where do you think Lucia and the baby are going to be hard to get away from?" Arthur asked, looking at Otis.

"The sea!" Otis guessed at once.

"Yes," said Arthur, "It's the sea. Spencer must have taken Lucia and the baby away that day, and if he has gone all the way southward, they would have been the Orient Ocean, and he would have probably sent Lucia and the baby out to sea!"

The more Arthur talked about it, the more it seemed like a possibility, and even if it was small, he had to try!

"It certainly fits Spencer's style," Edwin said, echoing Arthur's speculation.

"If he sends Lucia and the child out to sea, even if Lucia could escape on her own, she would never risk taking the baby with her. His plan is foolproof!"

But it was also extremely insidious!

"What a wicked trick!" Sophie scolded.

"Otis, you and Jack all have pilot licenses. I'll inform the relevant departments about the airspace. You guys can go to my hangar and pick at random. No matter how fast the boat runs, it won't be able to escape the helicopter's search! It's just that the direction isn't set yet, so you need to work a little harder and not miss any directions."

Arthur pleaded with Otis.

"What's the trouble," Otis said, most distressed by Arthur's politeness. He knew he didn't want to trouble anyone, but it wasn't just him. "Lucia and the baby are our family too, not your responsibility alone."

Hearing Otis's words, Arthur couldn't help but reach out and press his hand on Otis's shoulder. Although his emotions were already expressed in words, they still turned into an unspoken look between the brothers.

The best thing for parents was that their children supported each other, and Edwin and Sophie were moved to see Arthur and Otis do so.

After confirming the direction, Otis immediately went upstairs to look for Jack and the others to discuss the plan of finding them. Jack and the other were originally still lying on the bed. When Otis said that he was going to look for them, they immediately jumped up from the bed. Nick even showed off his muscles.

"We're all set. We can leave right now."

Otis smiled and immediately began to discuss the detail.

Downstairs, Edwin and Sophie were about to go upstairs when an unexpected visitor arrived at the villa.

When Peter brought Nia into the living room, Edwin and Sophie took one look at her and went upstairs, leaving Arthur to deal with her alone.

Nia's eyes were filled with anxiety. As soon as she saw Arthur, she rushed over and asked,

"Mr. Davies, have you heard anything?"

"I don't have a clue..." Arthur said in a low voice. He had no intention of telling Nia about his rescue plan.

"I do have some information here that I don't know if it's of any use to you," Nia said immediately, as if satisfied with Arthur's answer.

"Oh, what is it?" Arthur looked interested.

"Casper's father also found out about his kidnapping. You know that he has a lot of connections. After a few investigations, Miles found out that Spencer's motorcade seems to have been to the neighboring city and appeared in the coastal areas. Is this information useful to you?"

Nia was very shrewd. Although she was anxious to find Casper, she knew who had the most power, money, and influence. Besides, she could still do Arthur a favor if she told him the news.

Arthur's eyes moved, but he appeared calm, and it seemed that he was on the right track.

"Of course it's useful. I'll send someone to search the area. Maybe they'll really find them." Arthur included Casper in the rescue team, so Nia knew that he had accepted her kindness.

"Please, Mr. Davies, there's only so much information I can give you," Nia said humbly.

Arthur nodded his head and suddenly stared straight at Nia, turning her face red and making her feel a little unnatural.

"Mr. Davies, you..."

Nia was most awe-struck and secretly moved by Arthur's concentration and expression when he stared at her. It always made her feel as if he was waiting for her. She lowered her eyes slightly, and after a long while, she managed to say a few words that didn't make sense.

"Last time I was in a hurry. I didn't have time to ask you a question. Now I have a question to ask you." Arthur withdrew his gaze and said faintly.

"Say it, Mr. Davies," Nia said shyly.
