Chapter 2351


    Joh''s hand shook as he reached into his pocket.


    His expression changed after he made the call.


    Nathan frowned, sensing that something had gone awry.


    "Tell your men to bring Thomas to us. No games. If anything happens to him, you will suffer the same fate," Colin warned Joh.


    Joh turned his bruised and battered face to gaze at them. "My men informed me that Mr. Dean had picked Thomas up half an hour ago."


    "Mr. Dean?" Nathan repeated. "Who is Mr. Dean?"


    Joh hesitated.


    Nathan''s eyes narrowed. "You seem to be keeping a lot of things from me."


    He then turned to Colin and ordered, "Make him talk, Colin."


    "Yes, General!"


    Nathan exited the office and sat on a bench in a corridor while he savored another cigarette.


    From within, Joh''s pleas rose to screams before gradually bing weaker and more inaudible.


    Not long after that, Colin led the Elite Eight out.


    "Mr. Cross."


    Nathan looked up. "What else have you discovered?"


    "Someone set Thomas up," Colin said simply.


    “Who did that?” “Derrick Dean," answered Colin. "Hees from Novah Pharmaceutical Company in Ariarica. It appears that he had been sent by Quentin to deal with you."


    Nathan scowled. "Them again!"


    "Derrick has his orders to sabotage you, Mr. Cross. I guess he''s heard that you''re difficult to attack. Therefore, he came up with a n to use someone close to you to bring you down."


    Nathan frowned. "Is that the reason why he has Thomas involved? In an attempt to harm me?"

    "I figured that Thomas wouldn''t have be a gambling addict for no reason. So, Thomas has fallen into a trap," Nathan remarked with a grin smile. "Where is he right now?". "ording to Joh, Derrick had Thomas moved to another location. Derrick must be ckmailing Thomas to ept his terms and act against you."


    "Locate his whereabouts as fast as possible," instructed Nathan.


    With military efficiency, Nathan''s order was conveyed to the entirework of intelligence departments in the country, which in turn mobilized hundreds of expert hackers to aplish the task.


    "Understood," Colin replied.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.


    With the help of satellite surveince,


    Thomas'' location was soon determined.


    Port Antwyne used to be one of the most popr ports in Marsingfill. In recent times, however, it had fallen into disrepair.


    At that moment, Thomas was lying in a puddle of his own blood beneath a swaying yellowmp in a derelict warehouse.


    Derrick, d in a crisp shirt, sat primly as he observed the man on the ground with five skilled fighters standing guard behind him.


    Stationed around the warehouse were several dozen more well-trained mercenaries.


    Derrick gazed with amusement


    down at Thomas who was gasping for air. "Even selling your wife and children won''t be enough to free you from your debt, Thomas. Do you think Nathan will forgive you if he finds out that the billion he had loaned you to pay off your debts has been gambled away? He might even kill you himself after finding out that you''ve lied to him."
