Chapter 654
Michael sighed, “Nancy, I regretted it. What grandpa and I did was just in stupid! Let’s not talk about
this first. I’ll tell you more once we get out of here.”
Though Nancy did not believe his words, it was no doubt an opportunity for her to run away.
She decided to follow Michael and escaped from the side door of the house.
They hopped onto a car, which Michael had prepared earlier, and left the residence.
While they were driving on the road, Nancy said, “Now you can tell me why do you want to save me?”
Michael put on an angry face. “Do you know what Mance instructed grandpa to do again? He wants to
take over the Whiteridge tourist destination development project from you, and our grandpa foolishly
agreed to his request.”
He continued, “It’s clear that Mance is an evil man. He wants to take over the tourist destination
development project and weaken the Hinton family. I’d rather burn the whole house down than give him
the Hinton family!”
“What?” Nancy exploded with rage. “Mance and his wishful thinking! The contract for the Whiteridge
project would end tomorrow, and I’ll be receiving the payment. If hees in and takes over now, he’s
just enjoying the fruit of ourbor! Oh no, Michael! We have to go back. The contract and my stamp are
still at the Hinton residence. If grandpa finds them, he will hand them over to Mance.”
Michael responded, “Don’t worry, everything is under control. I’ve brought the contract and your stamp
along when we left.”
Nancy was relieved to hear that. “Thank God. Come, let’s go and visit the site of the Whiteridge project.
I’ll discuss with the person-in-charge, Sofia, to see if we can add another use to the contract to make
sure we receive the payment by today.”
Michael agreed. “Let’s go.”

After sending Dawn to Linton Group, Zeke immediately rushed to the Hinton residence in Riverdale.
He was not sure if Nancy’s condition was any better than that of Dawn’s.
Besides Dawn, Nancy was also Lacey’s closest friend.
If anything happened to her, Lacey would definitely cry her eyes out.
For the sake of his wife, he must make sure Nancy was safe.
He received a call from Lone Wolf when he was on his way.
Lone Wolf said, “Bro, we retrieved a text message from Mance. He ordered Michael to kill Nancy and
snatch the Whiteridge project from her.”
Ever since Mance initiated his big n, Zeke had ordered Lone Wolf to monitor all hismunication.
It was not easy because Mance’s mobile phone had been modified. His text messages were all heavily
coded, making it hard for others to crack.
Fortunately, Michael’s mobile phone was just an ordinary one, and he would not be able to read his
encrypted messages. This was why Mance had no choice but to send him a regr text message, and
this was how Lone Wolf managed to obtain the message.

“Damn it.” Zeke gritted his teeth. “That man doesn’t mind killing someone just to get his hands on
Linton Group!”
Lone Wolf responded, “Calm down, bro. I’ve deployed someone to monitor Michael’s movements. So
far, he has yet to harm Nancy. He just took her away from the Hinton residence, and they are heading
to the west on the 302.”
Zeke nodded. “Okay, continue to keep an eye on him. I’m on my way to the 302 now.”
Zeke revved up his engine and rushed toward the 302.
In less than 20 minutes, Zeke found Michael’s car.
He sped up, overtook his car, and drifted his car to stop Michael from continuing his journey.
Michael was nervous because he was about to kill his cousin, so he did not notice Zeke’s car in front of
him. He failed to hit the brakes and smashed into the car.
Zeke’s face fell.
His car was not just any ordinary Santana!
This was the car he had used to ferry his wife for more than a decade! An old faithful of the Hinton
family!
He had taken good care of this vehicle, and someone just rammed into his car like it did not matter?
