Chapter 783 Figure Out an Escape
Half an hour later, the car rolled to a stop by the interstate highway.
"The police said they only have surveillance footage up to this point. If we want to
investigate further, well have to look into private surveillance cameras,’ Neil briefed Jenny,
following closely behind her.
She surveyed the surroundings and noticed the lack of surveillance cameras. Since the
abductors had deliberately dodged the areas with surveillance, they could not be easily
tracked down. A short pause later, she instructed him, ’Get someone to make a copy of all
available surveillance footage along this route."
"All of them?" Neil sounded doubtful.
"All of them." She nodded. Although Neil was confused, he still carried her orders because
she was the de facto head of the Walter family now that Graham had disappeared.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOnce he was gone, Jenny drove the car down the route slowly. She wracked her brain to
figure out the destination where the abductors were headed with Graham and James.
"Could they be kept in the same place?' she wondered.
While she was busy searching for the two men, there was a buzz online over the abduction
of Graham Walter and James Windsor. Netizens were in disbelief when the news first broke
out. If the two men were still unaccounted for by dawn, the stock prices of their respective
family businesses would be in freefall until they breached the price limit.
The Windsors launched a frantic search for James as well, but their efforts have been in
vain. The abductors must have been well-prepared; they did not want a repeat of the
failed assassination of Jenny.
At the same time, the other families in the Ten Elites were worried for themselves. After
all, they had no idea about the identities of the abductors and whether or not the criminals
might come for the other families.
In the dead of night, a few cars quietly drove into a small town next to Bardoff City, where
the roads were empty. The cars were discreet, not attracting any attention.
Ten minutes later, the cars drove into the grounds of a logging factory. A man jumped out
to check the surroundings. He made sure the coast was clear before giving a signal to his
partners, who quickly got out of their cars.
Two men were forcefully dragged out of the cars with their heads covered. Had Jenny been
there, she would have recognized Graham and James in no time. They were brought into
the factory and locked in an abandoned room, the cloth over their heads removed.
"Mr. Walter." James looked at Graham with concern.
Graham shook his head. "I'm fine. Let's figure out an escape.’
They could not afford to waste another minute in captivity, as that would put them and
Jenny at a disadvantage. Until now, they had no idea about the motive of the abductors. If
the abductors wanted to assassinate Graham and James, they would not need to bring the

victims.
James checked the surroundings and noticed a door and a window. Even if they escaped
from the room, they would still be trapped in the logging factory under the watchful eyes
of the abductors.
Moments later, he finally calmed down and said, "Mr. Walter, let's stay calm for now. Since
they're not after our lives, they must have different demands. That will make things
easier.’ He would be more concerned if the abductors had no other demands than taking
the lives of the hostages.
"Still, I'm worried they'd go after Jenny." If the abductors blackmailed Jenny with Graham's
life on the line, she would definitely cave in. At the mere thought, he'd rather bear the
brunt of it.
