Chapter 672

Author: Sequora
After thinking about it repeatedly, Jasper called Gio, who answered after just a few beeps.

"Gio?" Jasper called out.

Before he could make his point, a frail voice rasped, "My friend… Did you call just to laugh at me?"

Jasper frowned at the raspy voice. "What's wrong?"

Gio sighed. "What's wrong? It's all thanks to you hurting my boys, and I ended up getting punished when I got back… Well, I lost this one. You're way too smart for me, and I guess this friendship wasn't meant to be."

"Guess you're not that hurt if you can joke about it," Jasper replied, deducing from Gio's mood that Renee's disappearance had nothing to do with Don Kalon.

If the don managed to nab Renee, why would Gio get punished?

After a brief exchange, he hung up when Luke came up to him. "Are we sure it's not the don? Couldn't Gio be misleading you?"

"It would be completely unnecessary," Jasper replied, shaking his head.

He was well aware that the mob's strength was far above his, and they definitely didn't n

    In Cromenia, news of Jasper's generous reward meant over a hundred calls came in within just one night, almost clogging up the line altogether.Fortunately, they set up a group of receptionists who quickly differentiated potential leads from the frauds.Naturally, as it turned out, there weren't many reliable leads despite hundreds of calls.At the same time, Simon and his group reviewed the traffic camera footage, seeing that Sylas had indeed taken the highway because they were cut off, as Jasper had speculated.The pursuers were also in ordinary black Toyota sedans. It was a very common car too, which made it all the more difficult to search for them.Moreover, it was not until three days later when they fished Sylas' car out of the sea, but they found nothing inside, save for the tracker and other frivolous possessions.Jasper immediately recognized Renee and Sylas' phones among the scrap pile, however, and Luke quickly assured him, "It's fine, boss—they weren't in the car, so

    After working through the night, everyone was exhausted.But they were all on edge, and none of them were slacking off.Their convoy stopped by the road as they reached the tracker's location, and Jasper got out, zooming in on the position.His face darkened when he saw the precise location, his fingers trembling."Wait… It's in the sea…?" Luke trailed off, not daring to say anymore.Their worst fear was realized, and the reality definitely caught Jasper off guard.His heart raced, and he felt like he couldn't breathe.They were already horrified when they found Conrad's car at the bottom of the ravine, and Jasper had felt fortunate that she wasn't there.They had really thought that Renee got away for a moment, only for her to show up here.Still, Jasper soon gathered himself and barked, "Start searching! Call in every connection, and check any cameras along the way here… Remember, all of them! Also, contact search and rescue, try to get their car out of the sea, no matter wh

    Jasper reclined against the bench, crossing his legs at the ankles while twiddling his thumbs. "I thought I'd never see you again… I'm more than happy now."Nora stood up, clapping him on the shoulder to comfort him like a parent would. "Don't worry too much. Just wait for Conrad to wake up."Jasper hung his head in silence.Time passed very slowly that night like never before for Jasper.Hours later, there still wasn't any word on Renee.More men were sent to search, and the small search area around Redwood Bridge soon spread up to thirty miles beyond.Even with all the manpower and equipment they had, they found nothing.Knowing that Renee would be in even more danger the longer he waited, Jasper stood up.But just as he was about to leave the hospital, Luke came running toward him while exclaiming in delight, "Boss! He's up! Conrad's up!"Jasper's eyes lit up as he promptly turned and ran into Conrad's room, where Conrad lay feebly on his bed.His hand and leg were plaster

    Once they called up the helicopter pilots, they loaded up the injured chauffeur with a stretcher.Jasper didn't watch them, however, as he tried all that he could to pry the door open, shouting, "Conrad! Get up and stay with me! What would I tell your family if you die here?!"Clang!He eventually managed to open the door with the crowbar and reached inside to unfasten Conrad's seatbelt, dragging him out. However, Conrad's foot was stuck, so he didn't pull too much. He got a jack to push apart the door and the dashboard, freeing Conrad.Nora also arrived just then, running toward Jasper. "Anything I can help with?"Jasper did a double take at her voice and turned.Frowning slightly in disbelief when he saw that it was Nora, there was tenderness in his eyes as he rasped, "What are you doing here, Master?"Nora was far more important to him than his own parents, and he was feeling a mess of different emotions upon seeing her again.For a second, he thought he was hallucinating—

    Luke was staring at Nora in bemusement too, muttering under his breath, "Beats me. She may be Mr. Zeller's mentor, but it's been years since they've met. Heck, when he learned that she's in Markistan, he almost made sure to travel there a couple of times per year to ask for her forgiveness."Sighing, he finished, "And here I thought she'd never forgive him… But here she is, showing up out of the blue.""Yeah, I think so too." Simon crossed his arms, but soon scratched his head. "Hey, don't you think Ms. Lowe has something to do with Ms. Whitley's disappearance? I mean, it's been years since she and the boss last met, and to suddenly show up at this time…"Smack!Luke smacked Simon on the head as he finished, rolling his eyes. "What's the matter with you? Are you even a carbon-based lifeform? The boss owes Ms. Lowe plenty and probably wouldn't be alive if not for her. Also, she has no connection with Ms. Whitley—why would you even connect her to that? Your stupidity is really beyond

    There was a lot of ground to cover, and they couldn't really reach here soon enough."Shut up and start searching," Jasper growled, his only thought was to confirm that Renee and everyone else was safe.Bzzt!That was when Simon's walkie-talkie warbled, and one of their men reported, "Sir! We've reached the bottom, and it really is Conrad's car. Both him and his chauffeur are injured and unconscious, but there's no sign of Ms. Whitley!""Are you sure?!" Simon blurted, turning in disbelief toward Jasper for orders.Jasper strode up and took the walkie-talkie, barking, "Search the area around it. Don't let anything slip."Throwing the walkie-talkie back to Simon, he held on to the rope tied to the handrail and slowly rappelled down the ravine.Luke remained worried, "Boss, it's dangerous! Let me go instead!"It was freezing outside, and snow was filling the air and covered the surface of the ground. But with the cliff on the bridge, one couldn't easily see what was happening do
