At that moment.
Jack Hughes was shocked.
He stared with eyes wide open at the figure in the SUV in disbelief, as if he had seen a ghost.
Mr. Ward and Brent both got confused at the same time.
Both of them looked at the figure in the SUV and they were stunned as well.
Unfamiliar.
The figure was extremely unfamiliar to them for they've never seen him before.
Even though they were separated by a distance, the moment they saw the man in the SUV, they were sure they had never seen him.
But Jack's reaction revealed that he knew him!
Mr. Ward hurriedly asked, "Young master, do you know him?"
The next second.
Jack, who was still in shock, tried hard to squeeze out a word.
"The mysterious man!"
Those three simple words were like thunder.
Bang!
Mr. Ward and Brent were dumbfounded.
Jack's words blasted like thunder in their ears.
They only heard about him from Jack for they had never seen the mysterious man before.
But Jack would never mistake him for someone else!
However...
They were just talking about how the mysterious man provoked them, but now he suddenly rescued them.
One second, they were in hell, then suddenly they were in heaven.
Taken by surprise, Mr. Ward and Brent felt like they sprained their back.
What... was happening?
Whoosh!Content rights belong to .
On side of the highway, the SUV slammed the accelerator and ran pass the Mercedes Benz G-class.
They looked at the SUV going further away.
Brent was stunned that he didn't step on the accelerator to catch up.
But Jack also didn't order him to do so.
At this moment, Jack was so stunned. He stared blankly as he sat on his wheelchair.
He had already slowly got clear in his thoughts about the mysterious man.
But now that he appeared again and saved them from a hopeless situation.
It hit him like a string punch and turned his thoughts into a mess.
Everything seemingly came back to the starting point.
Was the mysterious man... his friend or enemy?
Two helicopters suddenly appeared to chase after them, just right after the mysterious man threw the note at them.
It was clear that the mysterious man's note wasn't a prank like what he and Mr. Ward had thought.
Contrarily, it was a serious reminder!
When the mysterious man crashed the two helicopters with the car a while ago, he was saving them.
But, what about the things he did before?
For example... in the Hunter villa last night, he urged Jeweshine Hunter to kill them by putting poison in the alcohol, but it was unsuccessful; thus he killed him on the spot. One who could have such precision and strength.
One who was much stronger than Brent.
Even if Jack thought long and hard, he still couldn't name a few people at the level of this master.
Apart from his uncle, Brown Hughes, in Black hell, Jack could only think of the mysterious man as the other person from his memory!
He tried to kill them before, but now he saved them.
He must be crazy!
The more he thought about it, the more he got confused and felt that his head was about to burst.
He subconsciously looked at Mr. Ward.
Mr. Ward felt Jack's gaze. He waved his hands and bitterly smiled, "Young master, I'm also very confused right now. I can't understand this person's actions at all."
Inside the severely damaged car, there was only silence.
Because of the gun fires from the helicopter a while ago, the car couldn't properly work now.
During the entire drive, the car made creaking metal sounds and the wind howled as it entered the car.
Only these two sounds existed in the car.
Their suspicion about the mysterious man enveloped Jack and Mr. Ward like a layer of fog.
After a long while.
Brent suddenly said, "Young master, both the chase of the helicopters a while ago and last time we met the old master here was strikingly similar. Instead of thinking whether the mysterious man is a friend or foe, we need to think why those people on the helicopter wanted to kill us."
Jack's eyes narrowed.
Brent's statement cleared his messy thoughts from the mysterious man into this hunt and kill incident.
They were both in the North.
And both included hunt by helicopters.
Jack was not surprised at all that Brent could connect this incident to the incident of last time, when they went to meet his father.
But now that he thought about, it was too similar.
He already did his best to hide his whereabouts when he came to the North. Even the plane and flight number were hidden as he boarded with an undocumented identity.
This assassination couldn't be related to the Hughes family.
His biggest enemy right now were Madam Hughes and the other Hughes relatives.
After taking a deep breath, Jack looked at Mr. Ward deeply, "Mr. Ward, how much do you know about my father's enemies?"
Mr. Ward was stunned.
He lowered his head and frowned as he thought.
After a few seconds, Mr. Ward slowly opened his mouth and spoke in a disheartened tone, "Actually, due to the fame of the Hughes family, they've always been targeted. Though they're in a high position, those who wanted to pull the Hughes family down never disappeared. They are all considered enemies of the Hughes family."
"But the old master has always been careful and secretive in doing things. Sometimes, he does them by himself and won't let me help him. That's why, I don't know a lot about the old master's enemies." Jack calmed down, deep in thought.
What Mr. Ward said was simple.
He meant that the enemies he knew wouldn't do such a thing.
So the one who did this must be someone he didn't know.
This son of a bitch....
"Maybe...I need to talk about this with my father."
Jack murmured and turned around to look at the highway behind him.
The raging fire from the two helicopters could still be seen from afar.
Suddenly, he remembered the scene in the capital city where was rounded up by the Deadpool Mercenary in the TM Villa District after the Burton family ordered the Dark Net Assassin Squad to start the mission.
This was even more dangerous than escaping from a death trap.
If this only happened a few more times.
But he couldn't expect miracles to just happen.
However, things would turn bad...sooner or later.
When they reached the airport.
It was almost noon.
But Jack and the other two didn't seemingly stop.
They directly entered the VIP passage to return with a private jet.
Because of the fatigue from moving around for a day and night, he was constantly stressed.
So as soon as Jack boarded the plane, he fell asleep.
When Mr. Ward woke him up, the plane had already landed at the suburban airport.
When they returned to the TM Villa District, it was already nightfall.
Daisy Hill cooked a lot of dishes, and the entire family happily ate the meal.
After dinner, Jack accompanied Amber for a walk as usual.
She couldn't do vigorous exercises since she was pregnant, but moderate exercises were still necessary.
They chatted, but Amber didn't ask about why Jack suddenly left and what he did.
So Jack didn't say anything.
They implicitly understood each other and came back home.
After he helped scrub and clean Amber's body and comforted her to sleep.
Jack then pushed himself on the wheelchair to the villa's rooftop.
The night was chilly.
And a cool breeze blew.
When Jack arrived at the rooftop, Mr. Ward was already there waiting for him.
"What did my father say?" Jack asked.
After he decided to talk to his father.
Jack asked Mr. Ward to contact his father so they could meet up.
However, as he spoke.
Mr. Ward helplessly shook his head, "The old master doesn't want to see you."
"What?" Jack was a bit angry, "Didn't you tell him what happened?"
"I already told him."
Mr. Ward spread his hands, "But the old master told us to not intervene for the mean time, and just pretend that nothing has happened."
What?!
Jack was horrified and completely stunned, "What kind of attitude is that?"
