My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna) -
Chapter 2378
As soon as the location tracking app was installed, Jordan knocked on the bedroom door.
Knock, knock, knock.
"What?" I yelled towards the door in an exasperated tone.
"It's time to send Wynn home. Aaron is anxious about him being with us for too long." Jordan didn't get angry even though I yelled at him rudely. Rather, he sounded indifferent.
On the surface, I was still at odds with Aaron, so it justified his behavior.
Perhaps Aaron also knew that I specifically asked for Wynn so that I could pass some information over, hence he made an excuse to get Wynn home.
I pondered and said while facing the door, "I see. I'll get him dressed. You can wait downstairs."
Soon, I heard his footsteps outside the door gradually fade away. After a moment, it was silent.
While dressing Wynn, I cautiously used a voice that only the two of us could hear and said, "Baby, if you manage to contact Dad, tell him to try his best to mess up the situation, understand?"
Wynn looked at me with his two grape-like eyes. He didn't seem to comprehend, but he keenly agreed, "Okay, Mommy. Trust me. I won't let you down."
Perhaps spending time together with my son gave me a sense of security. Seeing Wynn being such an obedient child made me think that all the agony I went through wasn't such a big deal anymore. Pushing away my heavy heart, I hugged Wynn then went downstairs, holding his hand.
Jordan had been waiting for a long time, but he still appeared to be very patient. He raised his hand and motioned for Wynn to come to his side, "I'll take you home."
Wynn raised his head to look at me, then looked at Jordan and walked straight to the door, ignoring Jordan's outstretched hand.
Jordan's hand hung awkwardly mid-air. He stood in a daze for a while before he retracted his hand silently.
Actually, children were smart and observant. Even if they were unclear about the reason why they knew very well who to befriend and who to avoid.
Naturally, I didn't divulge my thoughts to Jordan. After all, Wynn still had to stay with him in the car for half an hour.
After sending them off, I went back to my room.
While Jordan was away for an hour, I tried sending a text message to the phone number written on the note before.
"Mr. Zimmer? I'm Arianna Reid."
The reply from the other party was quick and concise, "Please continue."
This was probably very characteristic of a soldier. They only paid attention to what was most important and did not bother with meaningless chatter. "Following this, I'll replace a chance to infiltrate the core of the crime organization. I hope you can track my location during the entire process. Is it feasible?" "Tracking your location is possible but approaching the organization is too hazardous. I don't recommend it for the time being."
I replied quickly. "I will ensure my own safety. Before that, I hope you can cooperate with Hendrix to give Jordan something to worry about."
Since Wynn was still young, there
was always a possibility of mishaps
if I relied on him alone. Since
Hendrix and Cyrus had worked together to save me from Emily before, the two of them must still be in touch. Letting him relay the message might not be a bad idea.
"Rest assured."
Upon receiving his approval, I deleted all chat records.
Hendrix acted faster than I had expected. It was only the next morning when Jordan's subordinates brought their bad news.
"Mr. Jordan, we have bad news. Kingsley and Francis have been arrested and the villa was seized by the police."
Having two crucial members in
prison meant that the whole group had been exposed to the police. It was not just the minor stakeholders of the group, even Stanley was in a precarious state.
However, Stanley had always been overseas and thus was not constrained by Zuckerburg's police. As the second-in-command of the group, Jordan had inevitably become the main target.
