    Chapter 228 Make Sure


    She''s intact It suddenly urred to August that Nn Vermon might be the most possible perpetrator,


    given the fact that the guy who dared to kidnap Lucia within thepany must be one of its


    employees.


    August called Bond immediately, "Lucia''s missing.Check the whereabouts of hers, as well as


    Nn.He''s the possible suspect.Focus on the areas in the vicinity of thepany, oh, especially the


    underground parking lot."


    Bond put his hand on the searching in no time as he''d seldom found August so agitated.


    He soon located the te number and the trace of the car from the surveince videos at the parking


    lot, and sent that specific part of clip to August swiftly.


    He then told August through the headset, "It''s probably done by Nn, and he did that at the parking


    lot even without any cover.He pulled Lucia into the car after knocking her off.He must have directed at


    us and have prepared for the worst."


    August clenched his phone with great rage which came from nowhere.


    As Bond''s fingers was moving on the keyboard quickly, he began tracing Nn''s car by anchoring at its


    te number.


    "I''ve locked his car number.I will trace down his movement before long and send you his whereabouts."


    he told August.


    August raised his eyebrows above his sharp and chilly eyes as some idea urred to him, "Get some


    more cars to block his way."


    He could almost guessed Nn''s psychological states.


    One who dared to kidnap even without any undercover work must have prepared for the worst


    scenario.


    You just couldn''t be too careful facing such a desperate lunatic.


    Bond responded soon, "Loulling Road, that''s where hest showed in the surveince videos.It''s


    around the eastern border of the city where lots of ces go without security cameras."


    August''s face darkened as his forehead knotted in a frown.


    After two seconds’ consideration, he ordered Burton to set out to the east.


    After that, he went on with the conversation with Bond on the phone, "I bet his call wille before


    long since he must go with some specific purpose if he kidnapped Lucia.Trace down the signal of his


    phone, and that might help to narrow down the range.I may well block his way with some more cars."


    "Got it." Bond nodded.


    The ck car darted toward the east.


    Having hung off the phone, August sat at the back seat, still holding the phone as his upper body


    stiffened.He was waiting for Nn''s call.


    As the phone buzzed, August looked down at the screen out of reflection.


    Yet it was not Nn! Instead, it showed "Jeanne Kelly".


    August frowned and rejected it.He just couldn''t answer any irrelevant call, which might stop Nn from


    getting through.


    Yet Jeanne called again.


    August rejected it one more time and texted her, "Emergency.Will talk to youter."


    Soon after he sent over the message, his phone buzzed again.


    As August checked the number on the screen, it was a strange one, which almost got him to freeze.


    August scrolled the screen to get it through with an icy voice, "Hello?"


    "August Adams..."


    The man sneered at the other end of the phone, "Do you know who I am?"


    There was a hint of anger in August''s eyes as he said coldly, "Let me know."


    "I''m Nn Vermon.The man who you''ve been after.I''ve got that Lucia woman who''s saved your


    life.Let''s make a deal if you want her to live on."


    August held the phone tight involuntarily.


    "What do you want?"


    "What else could I want? I''m only doing all this for the sake of money and I should have gained three


    million but for this woman.And now, not only is the money gone as I didn''t make it, but I''m exposed to


    you.I know it clearly that I can''t rival you, after working at Lion Group for more than one year."


    Nn snorted and asserted his im, "I won''t ask for too much from you.Just three million that will


    enable me to leave smoothly, and I''ll make sure she''ll go back to you intact."


    He then shifted into a harsh tone, "If you fail to do that, you should be able to the imagine the


    oue."


    August strived to repress his anger.


    "How am I to give you that amount?"


    "Three million in cash.At seven o''clock tomorrow morning.The first trash bin at the eastern end of


    Loulling Road."


    Nn then hung off the phone.


    August couldn''t help squeezing his phone as his facial expression seemed even sterner.


    Howe this Nn could have the patience to make the deal aste as tomorrow morning, and how


    could he be sure about Lucia’s safety when she had to stay with the pervert for a night! There then


    came the notification tone as Bond sent over the coordinate of Nn''s mobile signal.


    August informed Burton of the location and had him get there as soon as possible.


    Meanwhile, Nn was driving fast and unsteadily along a remote and deserted path which seemed to


    lead to nowhere.


    Lucia, who was sitting on it, was desperate besides being frightened.


    She dared not to imagine what would happen to her father when he knew her condition.


    As the tears rolled down her cheeks, she just felt her throat so sore, with her mouth stuffed by cloth.


    The car made a sudden turn into a smaller path where some twoyered buildings stood aside in


    dpidated shapes.


    At that instant, two cars came in the opposite direction, and they didn''t seem to have any intention to


    slow down.


    Nn frowned as he had to decelerate to make way for them.


    All of a sudden, his car, which was slowing down, swayed aside with a thud, and kept on decelerating


    as one of its rear tyres was making huge noise out of the friction with the ground.


    Nn suddenly realized what was happening and was about to press the elerator hard, when there


    came another thud, which indicated his front tyre was punctured too, "Damn it!"


    Nn cursed and checked the rearview mirror, just to find himself besieged by two other cars from


    behind, on top of the previous two in the front.


    He just hadn''t expected August to go with such a quick reaction and to employ so many hands only for


    a woman.


    Lucia noticed something unusual outside, and was shocked and uneasy as she stiffened at the


    backseat, while Nn was so infuriated sitting at the driver''s seat that he picked up the dagger he''d


    prepared.


    He then jumped to the backseat and captured Lucia, threatening coldly while pressing the weapon


    against her neck with his trembling hands, "Get off! Anything funny will take your life!"


    Looking at the ring de, which sent a shiver down her spine, Lucia could only obey.


    Holding her neck from behind, Nn leant against the car with great rm, shifting his eyes between


    the cars at both sides and shouting desperately, "I''ll kill her if you dare toe closer!"


    He''d totally gone out of his mind.

    One is doomed to end up like that the moment he or she agrees to be deployed as a vicious tool by


    others.


    Looking at Lucia, who was being the hostage now, from inside the car, August put a serious look on his


    face.


    Her pale face and the tears on it just got him so unnerved.


    "Shall we kick it off, boss?"


    came the voice of his staff from the headset.


    August instructed from between his teeth coldly, "Yes."


    With a swish, a gun which aimed at the back of Nn''s neck fired from behind sideways.


    Nn slumped down as the anesthetic needle shot right into his neck.
