A Replacement Bride

Chapter 399 I Can Save Him

Whoa. Never thought there'd be this much history. Hansel was surprised. "Infrasound weapon? That's…" He tried to describe it, but in the end, he said, "Miss Cornell's grandfather was something. Can't believe he made something like that, but why did he hide it, then?" That'll be a waste.

Jayden smirked, his scar wriggling on his face.

"He didn't want anyone to find it. He could've used that thing to make a ton of money, but he was a righteous man, so he didn't. He had no one who could succeed him. Elsie was his only daughter, but she died young, so he placed all his bets on his only granddaughter. He hoped she could find it when she became capable enough, and for all those years, his wife became the only keeper."

Hansel was a little confused. "But why didn't her grandmother hand that thing over to her when she was alive? Why did she have to wait until she was dying?"

Jayden shot him a look that said, 'Are you an idiot?' "You think that's a good thing? There are two sides to this coin. The more valuable something is, the bigger the effort must be exerted to keep it safe. Do you have any idea how many people are keeping an eye on them? Have you forgotten that Katherine's grandmother was hunted all these years? I thought they were after the Scott-Tuttons' manual, but now I see some were after that file. Both invite trouble, of course. If the old lady did hand everything to Katherine, they would go after her. Perhaps even kill her just to get what they wanted."

He was one of the hunters, but he was different. He wouldn't kill her. All he would do was lock her down and keep her by his side forever.

Oh, I see. He nodded and asked, "What about you, sir? Are you going to join in? What if they take the manual from her?"

mention of his scar made Jayden freeze, then he shot Hansel a dark look. "You could have not mentioned that," he barked, the veins on his hand popping. He was still bothered by that, but fortunately, he had contacted someone to get rid of his scar. If the scars couldn't be erased, it didn't matter. He would take Katherine one way or
