Chapter 264
When they finally returned to the car, Jane told Drake how heartbreaking the children’s situation was and that she wanted to help them.
Drake went silent for a while before saying, “Jane, dear, we cannot control everything in this world, understand?”
Jane considered Drake’s words, her heart feeling slightly heavy.
Yes, they cannot change the rules of the world. They can only live under them with desperate struggle.
As a result, Jane’s mood dampened. Drake then remembered what happened while they were inside, and asked her.
“Why did you pull me away earlier?” Hearing Drake’s question, Jane replied, “I received a message form Zane saying that he is currently safe, and is in Silverbourne.
Drake froze upon hearing this. “Show me the text message.”
Jane handed the phone to him, pressing the message. It contained a few short messages; the first part where he explained who he was, and then about his current situation.
Staring at the unfamiliar number, Drake thought for a moment before using Jane’s phone to give it a call. His brows furrowed after it said that the phone was turned off.
“Is this message even real?” He asked. After all, it was an unfamiliar number and the call cannot be
reached.
Jane was skeptical at first but when she noticed the symbols following the message, she nodded affirmatively.
“Zane really must have sent the text message. I don’t know whose phone he took, but these are only symbols that I, Zoe, and Zane know. I’m sure he’s the one who sent this.”
Drake looked at the message once more and sure enough, there were two strange combinations of symbols. In the end, he chose to believe in Jane.
“In that case, let’s go back to Silverbourne first.”
“Okay,” Jane nodded. They have already checked at place and it was clear that they did not find Zane inside.
Afterwards, they started the car again and prepared to return to Silverbourne.
However just as the lights turned on and before they moved, a figure crashed into the car. The car instantly stalled.
The figure that bumped into the car started hitting the car window hard, eyes constantly looking around in panic.
Because of the tint, people outside could not see the inside of the car. Sitting on the passenger side, Jane saw the person outside and recognized it as Marina James.
Drake recognized her as well, but he had no intentions of opening the door.
However, Jane noticed where Marina had just ran out. There were several men in black running

towards her direction.
“Let her in the car,” Jane said after hesitation.
Drake was surprised but still opened the car door as Jane wished.
Marina immediately opened the car and sat down, speaking hurriedly.
“Drive…drive…”
Drake was still for a moment and then immediately started the car, the black Bugatti rushing like an
arrow off the string.
The men watched as the car drove away with Marina inside, faces very displeased.
Marina, who had barely escaped, slumped in the car seat and breathed a sigh of relief. It was then she realized who the two people in front of her were.
“It’s you..” she was surprised.
The car drove for a while away from the place. Seeing as there were no other vehicles chasing them behind, Drake turned the car and parked in a remote place. He then turned to the back seat.
“Get off!”
Because of the incident at the hotel, Drake did not have a good impression of Marina James. One could even say that he despises her.
If Jane had not spoken, he would not even unlock the car and help Marina.
Marina did not expect that the people who would save him would be Drake Warner and Jane Bentley
either.
But since she was already in the car, she would not be getting off as easy as that.
“Where are you going? Can you take me with you?”
“Saving you is purely due to the information you provided. Otherwise, if it were based on your character, you are not worth saving at all,” Drake said stonily.
Marina cringed upon hearing him speak, but with her current situation, she could endure all the unpleasantries. “I apologize to the both you regarding that time. I was desperate. I’m sorry please forgive me.”
Jane did not really know what to say, hearing those words uttered by the beautiful woman. Some people say that women get more excited than men. Jane did not feel that way before but now, she completely understood.
“Please take me with you. If you leave me, I might die,” Marina said miserably.
Jane could not afford to have the least amount of sympathy towards as his stare hardened.
“What? You don’t want to get down by yourself, do you want me to do it again?”
Marina’s expression changed again, looking back at what happened before.
Her instinct to survive however, completely overcame her fear. She continued, “Please, don’t drive me away. I’ll really die.”
Jane was already getting impatient and wanted to get out of the car and pull Marina out herself.

Right at this moment, car lights lit up behind their own, and several black cars were going directly to
them.
“Sit still.”
Drake could immediately tell that something was off and spoke to Jane, starting the car again and speeding away.
Several cars followed closely behind, chasing after them from afar.
Marina knew that those cars were after her. Pale with fear, she could only think of Drake and Jane as her saviors.
“Hurry, hurry, don’t let them catch up.”
Hearing Marina’s screams at the back, the veins on Drakes forehead bulged, and he let out a cold
roar.
“Be quiet!”
Marina was frightened and did not dare to speak further, but her eyes kept looking back nervously at the vehicle following closely behind.
Jane glanced at the speed of he car; it was already over the limit. Luckily it was late at night and there were no other vehicles on the streets. Otherwise Jane would not even dare guarantee that they would be free from any accident.
Drake’s car had good speed. Although they were not yet able to get rid of the cars chasing them, they also could not be caught.
Seeing that, Drake directly drove towards the intersection and went straight to the highway.
On the highway, there were even fewer cars and the road was smooth. He slammed on the pedal, treating the highway as a race track. He drove straight, finally leaving the cars behind.
