Chapter 1043 Let's Go Together
Sasha glanced at him indifferently and coldly said, "If you're scared, you can back out anytime."
Jerry looked at her aloof demeanor, and the smile on his lips deepened. He lowered his head and withdrew his hand, then took this opportunity to embrace her in his arms.
She instinctively tried to fight back, but her body was restrained as soon as she moved. So, she ended up lying in Jerry's embrace in a highly ambiguous position.
"After I agreed to your request, I had already anticipated the consequences today. If I'm scared, I wouldn't have agreed in the first place," he whispered beside her ears. His warm, breathy voice tickled her ear, creating a tingling sensation that made Sasha involuntarily shrink her neck.
"Let go of me," Sasha said as she tried to break free.
Jerry sensibly released her and advised, "Go and rest. If you stay up all night every day, you'll become haggard. No one will want you in the future."
After she broke free from his embrace, she walked forward without paying attention to the person in front of her.
Jerry continued to call after her. "By the way, your old lover wants to meet me tomorrow morning. If you want to go too, make sure to rest early and make yourself look presentable."
When Sasha heard that Colton was coming, her determined figure paused. Then, she coldly uttered a few words. "I got it."
...
The next morning.
Although there were still 4 to 5 hours for Colton to rest, he didn't sleep at all last night.
Beryl wasn't any better. He was about to doze off. Sitting in a chair, he took a nap for about 2 to 3 hours before he glued his eyes to his computer to find out Wendy's location.
The morning in October still carried a slight chill, and Colton could feel the coldness despite wearing a thin long-sleeved shirt.
Nicole originally intended to accompany Colton, but within an hour, she became sleepy and ended up falling asleep.
"The place where Wendy was kidnapped probably has a signal jammer. I can only locate the approximate position, but the address disappears beyond that." Beryl rubbed his eyes as staring at the computer screen for a long time had made his eyes sore and uncomfortable. Even the whites of his eyes had a layer of red bloodshot veins.
"Send someone there to keep an eye on the area and avoid making any rash moves," Colton said in a calm tone.
They were still unsure of Wendy's exact location, so this was the best they could do for now.
"Right, it's almost time for the meeting with Jerry. Shall we go there straight away?" Beryl looked up at Colton. It was already past 7.00AM, so they should probably go now.
Colton nodded. Due to the sleepless night, his face looked somewhat glum and he appeared a bit tired.
"Yeah, let's go and take a look. You bring a group of people to wait outside just in case something happens to provide support. Dominic and I will go in together," Colton said in an organized manner.
Nicole had already woken up while they were talking and happened to hear Colton's plan. She spoke up and said, "I'm going with you."
He turned his head to look at her and was about to refuse, but he heard her continue saying, "I've already come this far. Are you suggesting that I act like a coward? With Sasha's involvement, she simply wants to cause trouble for me."
Looking at Nicole's resolute expression, Colton didn't say anything more. He sighed and nodded. "Alright, then we'll go together. But you must stay close to me and not leave my sight."
She smiled and nodded.
After they divided their works, Beryl brought his off-road vehicle over and said, "I've already made arrangements with Jerry. We'll meet at one of his bases. Most likely, we won't have a confrontation. However, for safety's sake, you guys should still bring something for self-defense."
