Chapter 1208
“That person” did not just cause the death of Duncan and Everett’s parents, but he even pushed Everett into hell, nearly condemning him to eternal damnation.
Everett’s current disease was closely related to that tragedy.
That was why Duncan ordered Everett to go back as soon
as he heard the news.
But would Everett listen to Zayn?
Before Zayn could answer, Duncan said, “Pass the phone to him. I’ll talk to him myself.”
Zayn and the driver at the side instantly sighed in relief.
They really could not do it.
Luckily, Mr. Duncan was willing to do the talking
personally.
“Mr. Everett, Mr. Duncan would like to speak with you.” Zayn held his phone and reported.
“Tell him to protect himself. He doesn’t need to interfere with this,” Everett spoke coldly without even looking up.
The light on the screen illuminated his intense expression, and his eyes were red.
“Everett!” When Duncan heard Everett’s words, he began to sound strict. He yelled, “Go back now! Listen to me!”
Everett frowned and finally raised his head.
He did not have time to say anything as the car ride suddenly became bumpy.
Zayn’s phone instantly fell on the backseat, ending the call.
Everett’s laptop on his knees also nearly fell due to the shaking.
“Mr. Craig, we’re being pinned in the middle!” The driver’s voice rang out. “Five cars are surrounding us!”
“Speed up and break out,” Everett said sternly.
As soon as he gave his order, the driver stepped on the accelerator and drove the black Mayback speedily.
A car was chasing them from the back, while they were flanked by two cars on either side. Two cars also surrounded and blocked them at the front.
At the same time, Everett and Zayn took out guns from the bottom of the seats.
The battle that he had been waiting for many years had finally begun.
“Mr. Craig, the phone is vibrating,” Zayn informed Everett.
Everett glanced at the phone on the back seat and picked
it up.
It was a call from Duncan.
The call earlier had ended abruptly due to the accident, so his brother must be insanely anxious now.
Everett pursed his lips and answered the call.
“Everett, are you okay?” Duncan sounded shocked and anxious. He did not sound as calm and mature as the head of the Craig family usually did.
The darkness in Everett’s eyes faded slightly, and unbeknownst to him, his tone became softer. “I’m fine. We just took care of a few cockroaches.”
“I just found out that professional hitmen just attacked you. You don’t have to worry about what happens after this. I’ll wrap it up.” Duncan’s tone was filled with ruthlessness. “I want to see who dared to accept the offer and deal with the members of the Craig family!”
“Okay.” Everett willingly handed the task to Duncan and just said, “I need to go to the hotel.”
