Chapter 2616
“They haven't sprouted wings, so no way did they just vanish into thin air right
under my nose. They must still be around here. Search thoroughly, boys.”
“Yes, Boss!”
Elton’s eyes were wide open inside the rank and stifling dumpster. He could hear
Jaxon’s footsteps drawing closer, and he even tapped on the lid of the dumpster.
“Hey, don't forget to clear out the trash by the front gate tomorrow. The garbage
truck only swings by this backwater village once a day.”
The henchmen searching for him paused, confused by this sudden mention of
garbage
collection.
“Got it, Boss.”
Only Elton knew this was bad news.
On the run, Victoria suddenly cried out and then her legs gave way, and she
dropped to her knees. Balfour immediately stopped and asked her, “What's
wrong? Are you feeling okay?"
She clutched her chest as tears streamed down her face. “Something's
happened to my
dad!”
Mara, who was closing in on the village, also clutched her chest suddenly.
“Officer, please, speed up, my dad might be in trouble-"
Alyssa glanced at her with a stern expression, and the officer floored the
accelerator.
The next second, Elton’s dumpster was kicked over, and the other kidnappers
gathered around, not understanding why their boss had suddenly taken an
interest in a dumpster.
But Elton played dead, tumbling out with the refuse.
“Ouch, look here, we got one hiding in the trash. These rich folks sure are scared
of dying!
The dumpster stinks to high heaven. I just saw someone toss dog poop in here,
heh heh heh.”
Jaxon’s smile grew wider. “Good for you, not being choosy when making an
escape. I respect that. A person who can endure humiliation is bound to succeed.
Too bad you ran into me today. I just wonder where the other two kids are. Ah?
Mr. Lewis, surely you don’t want to find out what happens to those who don’t
listen, do you?”
Elton shivered with fear; he had already taken a beating from these thugs in the
car, and his chest was still aching. After being kicked over, he couldn't move and
squeezed his eyes shut, as if that would ward off the blows.

“Though I admire your spirit, I've got no love for the silent types. You better speak
when I ask you a question.”
Jaxon stood up, wiped his hands with a tissue, and nodded in Elton’s direction.
The thugs, understanding the gesture, moved in and began to brutally kick Elton.

“It's a shame, really. We could have been friends if we weren't on opposite sides.
Making at quick buck gets tougher every year, and then there are those who
want to cross me. You think those two kids can get away? Are you
underestimating me? If I dared to leave just two men on you, I must have a
fallback plan.”

Jaxon turned his head, giving Elton, who was nearly unconscious from the
kicking, a cruel smile.

Tears streamed down Elton’s face.
