Chapter 595 Tan's True Identity
Before he answered, Tan added, "I'll send you the address. Don't call the police or I'll kill her!" With that, he hung up.
Jimmy's face turned taut instantly. He took Rose's phone and ran to the car. Rose was startled a little, then hurriedly caught up with him and sat in the front seat. Jimmy flicked a glance at her, probably not in the mood to ask her why she followed and pressed the accelerator hard. While the car roaring away, Rose was scared and hastily grabbed the handle next to her. For the first time, she felt how powerful he was as a bodyguard.
Rose gritted her teeth and kept silent because she was very clear that Jimmy was to save Hannah. And she simply followed before she knew it, for fear that something bad would happen to Hannah. Jimmy dialled the phone while driving, "Sir, Ma'am was taken away by Tan."
Oscar's face darkened.
"I'll send you the address. He wants you to come. But we can't call the police or he'll kill her."
At the last two words, Rose turned deathly pale with fear.
"I'm on my way. Come quick!"
"Mm-mm." When Oscar answered, he was already out of the villa.
Max ran after him. "Sir, where are you going at this hour of the night? You're not fully recovered yet. Where are you going!"
Without explaining anything Oscar stepped on the gas. He called Theodore, "Tan kidnapped Hannah. I'm on my way to save her and you follow. Don't call anyone else. Keep it down."
"I see," Theodore responded. He jumped out of bed and drove to meet up with Oscar.
He had been home recovering for only two days since release. Today he finally went to bed early, only to be woken up.
Tan Laurier kidnapped Hannah.
Theodore goggled in surprise.
Did he give it away so soon?
Hannah woke up on a shore near the wilderness, with her head spinning dizzily. For a moment, she was unconscious of what had happened to her and why she was in a strange place until a familiar voice came from the front seat, "Are you awake?"
Frozen with fright, Hannah quickly sat up, eyeing Tan with alarm. She now remembered that he had just covered her mouth knocking her out.
"Wondering why?" Tan stubbed out his cigarette. Even with the windows open, she could still smell the rank fumes. It felt like he had been smoking a lot.
Hannah tried to keep calm. She told herself since Tan did not kill her when she was in a coma, he was probably just trying to threaten someone. Her heart beat faster, for the first person that occurred to her was Oscar. Was he going against Oscar? That was why he took her first.
It appeared to be a big plan.
With her body tensed up, she watched Tan turn to look at her.
"Tan Laurier is not my real name. It is a disguise."
"Who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is who Oscar is."
"What are you talking about?" Hannah was getting emotional.
And Tan continued slowly, "Ms Hannah, you're smart. I didn't believe you don't know his identity remains unknown."
She bit her lips.
So, she was right about his target. But she didn't know why Oscar's real identity was worthy of being so targeted.
Tan was surveying her.
"I don't know who he is. Yeah, I found him weird. He gives the impression of being ignorant and incompetent, whereas he is powerful and invincible. Still, I have no idea what is behind him!"
Tan stared at her for a long time and seemed to believe her words. It was not like she was lying, after all, Oscar wouldn't tell anyone if he had a secret identity, and the most important people around him were no exception.
Anyway, Tan did not expect to get more information from Hannah as he had been waiting for Oscar all along.
"Tan, there's no grudge between us." Hannah also read on his face that he believed her.
His eyes moved slightly.
"I've been putting my confidence in you and giving you more opportunity to develop. I even thought of elevating you to the post of general manager after my father retired." Hannah said with a chill sent to her heart.
"Sorry, I had no choice."
Hannah sneered, "You had no choice but to kidnap me and even kill me?"
"I won't kill you," Tan told her straight.
She blinked her eyes.
"My target is Oscar, not you. You're safe."
Hannah was not convinced and Tan didn't give her more explanation.
"Who are you?" she could not help asking.
He looked at the time-it would be a while before they get here.
"I work for the aristocratic family."
"Collins?"
"Are you asking around for Oscar?"
"I should at least know who's after me, and who should I watch out for?"
"I work for the aristocratic families as a whole, not for either of them alone." He replied.
Hannah frowned slightly. He should have taken orders from one of them.
"When the two families reached the agreement to jointly administer Northfield, they established an underground elite team, commonly known as the Men of Sacrifice, the best of millions of people. When one of them dies, someone else comes in, and so there are always twenty men in the team, doing all the dirty things under the table." Tan said carelessly.
He didn't hide it from Hannah, and couldn't any longer. She would know it in a minute.
"The team does not belong to any family. Every one of our missions must be approved by the highest authorities of both families." Tan looked at her, "Therefore, investigating Oscar's identity is the common decision of the two families."
What lies behind Oscar's identity that the two families wanted to replace out?
Hannah was getting upset. She thought the Balderston family was on their side since their last cooperation but did not expect that they still put their interests first eventually.
"There is no such thing as friendship in politics. Power trumps everything," Tan told her plainly, seeming to read her mind.
