Immediately, everyone went on guard.

As Greta retreated, the person in the bushes slowly appeared.

“Damn it! It’s the b*stard Zyon again!” Winnie cursed when she saw the person’s face.

Even Xavier furrowed his brows. “He has taken Rachel hostage.”

The more Winnie thought about it, the angrier she was.

“What is up with Zyon’s eyes? He picked Rachel back at the dock as well. Now, even after I’ve hidden Rachel well, he still managed to find her! Did he put a tracker on her or something?”

“Unlikely.” Xavier held Winnie’s hand. “Calm down. Let’s hear what he has to say first.”

Winnie let out a long sigh. “That’s the only thing we can do right now. He must have no other thoughts other than wanting to stay alive.”

Xavier hummed in agreement. “I’ll go and talk to him. Stay here. Someone needs to keep an eye on Granny and the car.”

Winnie parted her lips, but she said nothing.

She had decided to exchange herself for Rachel instead of staying back.

Furthermore, Xavier had injured his arm. He would be in even more danger if he were to confront Zyon.

However, she changed her mind right then. “All right. Be careful.”

Xavier nodded. “Don’t worry. There are many of us. Even if he’s desperate, he won’t do anything rashly.”

With that, he went forward without looking back.
