At first, John thought that the file was work-related, but when he flipped it open, he realized that it was a report of

the investigation they ran on the Baileys. It was too complicated, so John only skimmed through it before saying,

“Just leave it here. I’ll slowly go through it. It’s so thick!”

Zack clicked his tongue at the comment. “Yeah, the Baileys have too many issues. I sent someone to investigate

and opened a can of worms. How annoying! They even reported some insignificant details to me.”

John grunted. “Yeah, you’ve put in a lot of hard work.”

Zack was obviously tired as he replied, “I’ll leave you to deal with this. I’m heading back now—there are piles of

work waiting for me.”

John sat in his chair for a while and made a call to Sophia. It took her some time to pick up the call, and she

inquired if he was done with the Baileys. Frankly speaking, John didn’t need to do anything for the Baileys except for

showing up. Thus, he replied, “Yeah, there’s nothing to deal with anymore. I just wanted to know what you’re

doing.”

She told him that she wanted to meet with Matilda, for she couldn’t hold back her need to gossip and wanted to

check with Matilda about the events from last night.

To that, John reminded her to be careful on the road. He agreed that she should meet up with Matilda, or else she’d

be bored to death at home. Now, Sophia found good company in Matilda and they could chat with each other to

relieve their boredom. The two didn’t chat further and hung up.

She immediately understood his meaning and turned around to stare at the cars behind them. “There’s something

wrong, am I right?”

The driver reported, “Two cars are targeting us, one from each side. Hold tight.”

In the next second, the driver floored the accelerator and the car flew along the highway. The momentum threw

Sophia back against the seat. She clutched tightly onto her seatbelt with one hand and placed the other on her

belly. After some time, she finally noticed the two cars trailing behind them and hurriedly made a call to John.

 

With her speaker on, she explained their situation to him. The driver chimed in and reported that he could not get

rid of them. Based on his tone, he sounded unconfident.

John immediately turned solemn and ordered the driver to head into downtown. Also, he assured them that he

would send someone to help out right away and reminded the driver to keep him updated of his location.

At the back, Sophia felt a little afraid; she was mostly worried that something might happen to the baby she was

carrying. Even though she had not reached the latest stage of pregnancy, she had suffered a lot during this

journey. Please don’t let anything happen to the baby.

Following John’s orders, the driver headed downtown and even actively searched around for intersections with

traffic lights in order to get rid of the two cars behind them. However, the two cars were acting crazy and didn’t

even stop after they accidentally scraped against other cars in the chase. The driver mumbled, “They probably

want to ram into us.”

Sophia grunted helplessly. If the two cars rammed into them with enough force, she might actually lose the baby

from the injuries. John seemed to have overheard the driver’s worried comment and kept asking for their location.

The driver was apparently an experienced bodyguard because he slid around the traffic like an eel. Downtown,

there were more traffic lights. Then, Sophia saw there was a green light that was turning red soon, so she quickly

screamed, “Look over there!”

The driver understood her meaning and accelerated. It went without saying that it was dangerous to drive at that

speed in downtown area.
