Chapter 464 - I WILL BE THERE
Chapter 464 – I WILL BE THERE
From the communication device, Jayden could very clearly hear the voices of someone groaning in pain and the sound of something hitting flesh quite loudly.
"Are you torturing someone over there?" Jayden asked when he heard a commotion in the background of Apple.
"More or less. Not torturing, just giving a little lesson." She corrected Jayden's words.
"Don't kill him, I want him alive to interrogate."
"Don't worry, I still have six more for you. You can do anything to them," Apple answered lightly.
Oh, please, this man was more concerned about Apple killing them, than about her own safety. Looks like Jayden was overly confident in Apple's abilities…
"Come here quickly, otherwise I'll start killing them one by one."
However, after Apple said that, the signal was interrupted again. Even so, she could still hear Jayden's voice telling her in a hurried voice. "I'll be there soon."
After that, their signal was lost again.
Where was that man now? And how could he find this ship already on the high seas? And what was more, how quickly could they reach here?
Apple was really upset about her current situation and now, just like Jayden, she was starting to dislike being in a ship, bobbing in the middle of the ocean with assholes like them.
=====================
Jayden and Misha walked past the lifeless bodies of those who had attacked them earlier. They could no longer move now, nor fire their weapons.
And apparently, it was only after the commotion subsided, they could see how many lives had been lost because of the chaos that had just erupted. Even Misha raised his eyebrows with much skepticism, when he saw the number of gunshot casualties their men had caused.
"Good job to the people you've trained," Misha commented to Jayden, but his cousin didn't respond.
"We have to find Apple soon," Jayden said, and looked out at the sea, a furrow between his eyebrows as he did so and Misha knew what was bothering his cousin.
Jayden was traumatized before and even now, he still couldn't get over it. Therefore, in order to catch up to Apple, who was now somewhere in the middle of the sea, they had to board one of their speedboats, of course, accompanied by dozens of their own people.
But, the problem was, Jayden couldn't get on the speedboat.
"You wait here, I'll go get her," Misha said, trying to make the situation easier for his cousin. "You can look into these people, and maybe get some information."
"What kind of information can I get from these lifeless bodies?" Jayden frowned, not liking Misha's idea. What kind of idea was that?
There was no way Jayden would examine the bodies of these men one by one for information. Such a search, his subordinates could carry out very well, without having him intervene.
Meanwhile, Misha could only sigh. "Or you can go back to the car and have a cup of coffee, while waiting for my report."
From a distance, Misha could see dozens of speedboats approaching them. Those were the vehicles they intended to use to chase the ship that Apple had sneaked into earlier.
Jayden frowned even more deeply. That was an even more ridiculous suggestion.
"Or you can do whatever you like and I don't care, okay," Misha said as he walked to one of the speedboats, waved his hand and glanced back at him briefly to make sure Jayden wasn't following him.
Only after he confirmed that Jayden was standing rooted to his spot, did he board the speedboat and wave his hand at his cousin, before he gave an order for them to move immediately.
On the other hand, Jayden could only watch as a group of about thirty people using fifteen speed boats, moving away and disappearing not long after.
Jayden just stood where he was, not moving at all. It wasn't clear what was on his mind now.
He had promised to get Apple back and go back soon, but just being in the middle of the sea, Jayden could feel his panic attack coming back.
Damn… he cursed in his heart…
=======================
Apple then beat the man one last time before she used the shirt that the man had worn to tie his hands and his belt to tie his legs.
This kind of work was a nuisance, but she didn't want to kill this man. She had killed enough today and didn't want to overdo it.
By the time Apple was done, the man had passed out from receiving a barrage of fists from the girl in front of him.
Who would have thought that a girl as beautiful and cute as Apple could subdue him and be able to fight so skillfully?
On the other hand, after Apple was done with what she was doing, she sat on the floor of the engine room for a moment, catching her breath as she felt a little tired and hungry.
She should have brought snacks with her earlier, at least she could replenish some energy.
She then tried to contact Jayden again, but the communication was still broken and couldn't get through to the man.
"Hey, Jayden, can you hear me now?" Apple called into the communication device, but no response.
And then she just sat there, thinking how they would find her. But then, negative thoughts started to get to her as there was nothing else she could do but wait.
What if they couldn't find her? Then, how would she save herself and save the kids in there?
Should she start killing those men? But, she couldn't steer this ship, could she?
Apple didn't know how long those negative thoughts had accompanied her while waiting, but then she was startled when she heard a voice from her communication device.
"Jayden?"
"You have a gun?" he asked directly, without even greeting.
"One gun."
"Go up to the deck of that ship, I'll be there in two minutes."
"What?"
