Chapter 84 Meeting Jennifer

 

At three in the afternoon, Jonathan, Amber, and Sergio were on a military aircraft. They were flying toward the location where Gabriel had fallen off the cliff. Jonathan was afraid that his negligence and rigid mindset would cause Gabriel’s escape. For example, Jonathan felt what Percy told him made sense, that Gabriel’s life should not be cut short. Hence, he gave up on the search. In the end, Gabriel managed to survive.

 

Jonathan was a careful man and would not allow himself to make a mistake like that.

Soon, the military aircraft arrived at the bottom of the cliff. There were jagged rocks surrounding a deep lake.

One could not see the situation at the cliff because the thick mist was lingering above the escarpment.

 

Be it under the cliff or in the mountain range, Jonathan, Amber, and Sergio could not find any traces of Gabriel.

 

Realization soon struck Jonathan that Gabriel was indeed alive.

The latter destroyed the helicopter’s engine while still flying because he believed that he would still survive even if he fell into the deep lake.

 

It’s strange! Gabriel’s legs are incapacitated. How can he climb up the cliff? I can’t even do that! It’s impossible.

“What’s in your mind?” Amber asked when she saw Jonathan lost in his thought.

Jonathan looked at the water before him and responded, “I believe that Gabriel is still alive. Do you think there’s a haven for Gabriel under this lake?”

 

Amber asked, “How can you be sure? Perhaps, monsters in the lake had devoured him!”

Jonathan shook his head and replied, “Don’t you understand, Amber? The disciples of Crimson Onyx Sect are proficient in numerology. Master Yarrow once told me that Gabriel has a long life. With the absence of his body under the cliff, I’m confident that he’s still alive.”

“Well, you won’t be able to do anything if it’s not his time to kick the bucket,” Amber said.

Jonathan responded, “That’s not true, Amber. One will eventually die. However, it doesn’t mean that one cannot do anything at all. Perhaps, one can change his fate with a great amount of effort.”

Hearing his words, Amber said, “He’s not a threat to us anymore since he’s immobilized. Why are you so scared of him?”

Jonathan rubbed his nose and answered, “Gabriel is a wily and scheming man.” After a pause, he continued, “To prevent him from seeking revenge from me, I have to do this. There has always been bad blood between us. He can choose to tackle the ones beside me if he can’t settle accounts with me. Therefore, I won’t allow him to live.”

In reality, Jonathan was terrified. Previously in the alchemy room, he had beaten up Gabriel badly. To the latter, it was immense humiliation.

Gabriel’s expression was cold at that time. Also, he said that he would be back, and they would meet one day again before jumping off the helicopter.

With that, Jonathan could not take it easy, especially with Gabriel.

 

Hence, Jonathan would feel extremely uneasy as long as Gabriel was still alive.

Jonathan turned around to Amber and Sergio before saying, “I’ll go down the lake and have a look.” Then, he took off his shirt and trousers immediately. Clad in only a boxer, he took a revolver before jumping into the lake.
