West had just come out of the banquet hall after bidding farewell to many guests.
Jack nodded at him. "I've handled the killer. You take care of the rest.' With that, he turned and left." As soon as he finished speaking, he left.
West smiled bitterly. As the City Lord, he still needed to clean up the mess. He had no choice but to call the police chief.
Meanwhile, Kaid and the others were waiting for news in the hotel.
"Dad, have we heard back from Sixth Elder yet?" Kaid asked excitedly.
"Don't worry." Greg glanced at his son and said indifferently, "Kerwin said that it might be a little difficult for that boy to fight, but I believe that he won't fail."
Hearing this, Kaid relaxed a little. 'Damn Jack. He didn't just steal my woman; he humiliated me in front of everyone! He has to die!'
He had even begun to imagine how he would comfort Emily after Jack died so that Emily would have a better impression of him.
At this moment, an old man quickly walked into the room.
"Ninth Elder, why are you here?" Greg asked in surprise.
The old man called Ninth Elder said in a low voice with a gloomy face, "Sir, Sixth is dead!"
"What?!" Greg shot to his feet, his face twisted in anger. "How is that possible? He could kill more than a dozen people by himself. How could he die?"
"Jack." Ninth Elder took a deep breath and said slowly.
"No, there must be a mistake." Greg shook his head repeatedly. "That boy is so young. How could he?"
"I saw it with my own eyes. It took less than ten seconds." Ninth Elder said with a serious face.
At this moment, the room fell into a deathly silence.
Mandy looked pale and said, "Greg, Kaid, why don't we go back to West State? I feel that there is something wrong with Jack. He won't come to kill us directly, will he?"
"No!" Although Kaid looked pale, he still gritted his teeth and said, "If we leave now, others would think we ran away out of fear! The glory of Medhurst family will be ruined!"
Greg chimed in, "Kaid, you're right. We can't just go back without doing anything."
"What should we do?" Mandy was extremely anxious. "Even Sixth Elder is no match for him, so Ninth Elder..."
"That's right, I'm indeed no match for him in a head-on battle." Ninth Elder was very frank. "That's why I have a plot, but Emily will be involved. I wonder if you can accept it?"
"Of course!" As soon as he finished speaking, Kaid said loudly with a gloomy face, "I'm doing this for her. Let her suffer a little and know who really loves her."
"But what are you going to do?" Kaid asked again. He was worried that if the plan failed, they would really die.
Ninth Elder smiled sinisterly and said, "A few days ago, the siblings from the Lima family in South State went to the Icarus family for medical treatment and disappeared. In fact, they had a conflict with Jack and were killed. Now the Lima family has sent five elders to Wyndcrest to take revenge on Jack. I know them."
"I see. Then I'm relieved." Kaid smiled sinisterly.
On the other side, Jack returned to the hotel. As soon as he sat down, he received a call from Emily, who was concerned about him. Jack chatted with her for a while and then went to bed.
The next day, as soon as Emily got up, Nancy stopped her and said, "Don't go out today. Kaid is coming. Get ready."
"No, the project is in an important period. I have to keep an eye on it." Emily was still angry with her and said coldly. "In the next month, I'll live at the site. I won't come back." Without another word, Emily climbed into her Beetle and sped off.
However, before the car could go far, three modified Jeeps stopped it. Just as she was about to get out of the car to question, a masked man decisively stepped forward and hit Emily on the neck. Emily fainted.
"Take her away." The masked man ordered coldly.

Jack phone suddenly rang—it was Emily.
"Emily, what's wrong?" He knew that Emily had been busy supervising the work during these days, so he did not often disturb her. However, he did not expect that Emily would call him now.
However, there was no voice on the phone.
"Emily?" Jack raised his eyebrows, a bad feeling rising.
"Jack, if you want to protect her, come to the warehouse in the suburbs." A hoarse voice suddenly came from the other end of the line.
When Jack heard this, his eyes suddenly turned cold. "Who are you?"
"You'll know when you get here." He sneered sinisterly. "Come alone. If I see that you bring anyone with you, I'll make a cut on her. At that time, you'll see her corpse!" As soon as he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
"Damn it!" Jack cursed and drove straight to the warehouse in the suburbs. For the sake of the safety of Emily, he deliberately did not ask Drake to investigate, for fear of alerting him.
When he arrived at the warehouse in the suburbs, Jack stopped. He could feel that there were snipers lying in ambush around the warehouse.
'They can actually hire snipers. It seems that they have a powerful background. At least, the Steele family and the Shaw family can't compare with them.'
"I'm already here. Where's she?" Jack asked coldly.
With a few light sounds, the warehouse's lights lit up. Jack looked inside and found that Emily was tied to a pillar in the middle of the house and had fainted.
Just as he was about to step forward, a bullet hit his feet.
"Don't move, or the next bullet will aim at your head!"
