NovelEnglishChapter 2614 Despite their shared reluctance to wake Jaxon none of them wanted to face the man’s wrath.
But if they let those folks get away, wouldn't that mean kissing the money goodbye? Jaxon hadn't expected them to be this idiotic. All he'd asked was for them to keep watch for one night, and they'd slept like logs, oblivious to the escape of their captives! na He watched them in silence, his gaze as heavy as lead, until finally he spoke with a steady voice, “Get after them now.” “Yes, Boss. They were hurt during the day; they won't be fast. Trust me, they definitely rant out the front gate-I heard snoise.” One of them tried to curry favor, his smile barely forming before Monkey's slap wiped it off his face.

Panting and clutching his chest, he was running out of breath. He couldn't help but worry about Balfour and Victoria-where had they run off to? Had they found a place to hide? Were they out on the main road? He had to escape.

Fortunately, after another 500 meters or so, they cupon a dense thicket. Balfour suggested they stop to catch their breath.
“Stay here and don’t move. I'm going to look around. We'll leave in two minutes.” While Victoria was struggling, Balfour seemed unphased by the ordeal.
