“What do we do now?” Jane looked at the entrance of the strictly surveilled area and turned to face Drake, concern in her eyes.
“Let’s wait and see first, I’ll have someone check.” Drake took out his phone and dialed a number. After the call, he put down the phone and simply waited.
Jane did not urge him and also waited patiently.
After a certain amount of time, Drake’s phone finally rang. He accepted the call, and could not help
but frown.
“How did it go?” Jane asked anxiously once the call ended.
The situation might be more serious than we thought,” Drake spoke.
“What happened?” From those words, Jane tensed up.
“The higher–ups already know that we are pursuing Zane, yet has advised us to stay out of the
matter – otherwise, the Warner family name will be implicated.
Upon hearing the seriousness of the situation, Jane’s brows furrowed.
“Could it be that you just don’t care about Zane’s life?”
“Of course that’s not the case, I will definitely bring Zane back.” The persistence in Drake’s eyes made Jane relax. She really feared that Drake would abandon Zane for the sake of the Warners.
At nightfall, Drake and Jane sneaked into the area, the two of them careful not to be caught.
Once they reached the very end of the villa, Drake stopped in his tracks. His intuition told him that they were now at the place they were looking for.
“Wait for me here. I’ll go in and take a look.” Although there were no guards outside the door, the security system was not bad at all, and he was not even sure that he could accomplish sneaking inside.
However, Jane did not agree with Drake’s words. “I’ll go with you,” she insisted instead.
Drake could not argue back with her and in the end brought her along.
Surprisingly, the two of them managed to infiltrate the villa and managed to arrive at the secret base
The smooth flow made Drake uneasy. Just when he sensed that something was wrong and was about to lead Jane back, a figure blocked the two of them from doing so.
“As expected of the person I once valued the most. You’re still as good as ever.” An old and calm voice was heard, startling both Jane and Drake.
Once he saw the person’s face clearly, Drakes expression went darker.
“Falcon, I trust that you are safe and sound since we last saw each other.”
“Master,” Seeing the old man with his hair turning white but is still in high spirits, mixed emotions flashed in Drake’s eyes.
The old man slowly approached them, his pace steady, stance straight.

“You should not have come here,” he sighed.
“I’m sorry, but I have to bring my child back.” Drake was not afraid of the man and bluntly stated his
purpose.
“Doing this will implicate the entire family. You know that, don’t you?” the old man said slowly.
“The Warner family has already sacrificed too many people. Isn’t that enough to make up for it?” Drake spoke in a cold tone.
“If
you
don’t have to sacrifice, how else are you going to maintain the stability of this country? You have already indulged the many riches and wealth that ordinary people cannot enjoy. Sacrifice is inevitable.”
Hearing this, Drake’s eyes further darkened. “Even if I don’t want this wealth, I want my child safe and
sound.”
“Such a woman’s benevolence,” the old man seemed to be very displeased and could not agree with
Drake’s words.
Sensing this, Drake continued, “Please, Master. Return my child to me.”
“I’m sorry, I cannot.” The man shook his head, indicating that he could not grant their request.
Drake’s expression instantly turned grim, his entire body emanating a cold aura. The air around them was so intense, it felt like it was about to explode.
Jane was standing at the side and could feel the strong aura emanating from Drake, not at all inferior to the old man facing him.
A pistol appeared in Drake’s hand, the hole aimed at the man in front.
The old man was aware of his actions but did not panic in the slightest, though there was disappointment evident in his eyes.
“You shouldn’t have done that.” As the old man uttered those words, a sound of footsteps rang out followed by a group of fully–armored soldiers, each with guns in their hands.
Jane could tell at a glance how prepared these people were, and there was no comparison at all between them and Drake with his pistol.
The man walked closer to the two of them, and his eyes fell upon Jane’s figure.
Then, seeing the necklace around her neck, he froze.
“Your necklace..where did you get that from?” He asked with a trembling voice.
Jane stroked the necklace on her neck. It was an heirloom left to her by her mother, saying that it was also given to her by her grandfather.
Back then, Andrew tried to snatch the necklace through various means, all of which were repaired by
Drake.
Because the necklace held sentimental value to her, she had always worn it around her neck.
Unexpectedly, a small necklace actually captured the attention of the old man.
“This was an heirloom left to me by my mother,” Jane answered truthfully.
The look on the old man’s face shifted upon hearing her, then he sighed deeply and looked at the two.

“You should go. Today’s incident – let’s just pretend none of this ever happened. Don’t ever come back here anytime in the future. It is impossible to save the children who have entered the alliance unless they make it to the end.” There was sadness in the old man’s words.
Drake did not drop the gun and was still about to confront them, but all of a sudden Jane received a message from her phone.
A smile was threatening to appear on her face once she read the message, but she did not dare show it due to the situation they were in.
She merely tugged on Drake’s sleeve, whispering, “Let’s leave first.”
Drake was puzzled at her words. However, after looking at the opposite team once more, he decided to follow Jane, dropping the gun and leaving with her.
As they were leaving, Jane caught sight of children in a room. Doctors in white coats were injecting
them with medication.
Jane, who was overflowing with a mother’s love, could not bear to see it.
Most of the children were about the same age as Zane. They were all being subjected to this kind of inhuman torture, possibly losing their lives in the process.
Jane wanted to save these children from the unacceptable situation
However, she also knew that with their current condition, she could not save anyone at all. The best she could do was to leave with Drake.
