Chapter 660 Hunted Down

“Please have mercy, Mrs. Jessop!” Caelum hastily pleaded. “He was too powerful! He has to be at least

a peaked tier–three expert!

“We tried our best, but we couldn’t overpower him! There was nothing we could do!”

“How can he be as good as you claim? He’s not a god! There were over 60 of you! You should’ve been

able to catch him! Doesn’t that prove how useless you all are?

Lacey screamed in rage.

She didn’t know what being a tier–three expert implied.

“Even though he’s not a god, he’s formidable. I couldn’t stand a chance against him. He’s far more

powerful than I am,” Caelum said helplessly.

“That’s right, Mrs. Jessop. We all did our best. We couldn’t even do anything to him!” one of the men

called out.

“We underestimated him. That’s why we lost. I’m sure we can catch him if we send more people this

time,” another one said.

After seeing how badly injured all the men were, Fergus and Lacey believed they did try their best.

Fergus had been so sure that 60 people would’ve been enough to catch Tom and the others, but he’d

been proven wrong.

“Who on earth is he? Why is he so strong?” Fergus asked.

“We’ve got no idea,” Caelum replied.

“So what if he’s good in a fight? Can he dodge bullets?” Lacey snorted.

“Do you have an idea, dear?” Fergus asked.

“Send more people over and get them to bring guns this time. Just shoot that bastard!” Lacey growled

through gritted teeth.

“We can’t do that. If we use guns, we’ll catch other people’s attention, and we’ll be exposed,” Fergus

said.

“So what? Don’t forget who my father is. We can do whatever we want in Churron. No one will dare to

investigate us. As long as we do a good job cleaning up the bodies, no one will hold us accountable for

a few deaths.

“Blake still needs an eye donor. Are you willing to let him live with a blind eye

“Alright. I’ll get Celian to go over with some of his men,” Fergus said.

“Make sure they don’t kill him, or else his eyeballs will be wasted!” Lacey reminded.

“I’ll tell them,” Fergus said with a nod.

He immediately called Celian Hewitt and told the latter to catch Sherry and the others after giving him

Sherry’s address.

Celian was an infamous criminal boss in Churron. He had a lot of men working for him. All along,

Celian and the Jessops maintained a close relationship, and they often worked together.

Right after getting the call, Celian led his men to Sherry’s place.

Meanwhile, Fergus turned to Kent and said apologetically, “I’m so sorry. A small issue came up, and

the eye donor hasn’t been brought over yet.

“How much longer is it going to take?” Kent asked. His patience was at its limit.

“Not long. We’ll have him here in just an hour,” Fergus assured.

“Fine. I’ll wait,” Kent replied. He knew the Jessops weren’t nobodies, so he dared not be too

disrespectful.

“My leg’s broken, Mr. Jessop. Can the doctor treat me, too?” Caelum asked.

Fergus nodded in agreement. Since Caelum got injured while carrying out his job, it was only right for

the Jessops to handle his treatment.

“Mr. Vega, can you tend to one of my men first?” Fergus asked.

“Sure, but it’ll cost extra,” Kent said.

“That’s no problem at all. How much do you want?” Fergus asked.

“Let’s go with 80 thousand dollars,” Kent replied.

He didn’t want to ask for too much. In any case, he had nothing to do right now, so what was the harm

in earning a bit extra?

“Sure! I’ll transfer the money to you right away.”

Fergus swiftly made the bank transfer.

40 minutes later, Celian and his men arrived at Sherry’s place, only to find it deserted.

He immediately called Fergus to report this.

When Fergus saw the incoming call from Celian, he swiftly took it and asked, Have you caught them?”

“We just got to the place, Mr. Jessop, but there’s no one here!” Celian reported.

“That’s impossible. Are you sure you found the right house?” Fergus asked.

“Yes, it’s the correct house. Maybe they ran off because they knew you’d come after them,” Celian

suggested.

Fergus thought that had to be the case.

“Why aren’t you doing anything, then? Go after them! Make sure they don’t escape. You have to bring

them to me no matter what!” Fergus instructed..

“Got it! I’ll have my men search for them,” Celian said.

Once the call ended, Lacey quickly asked, “What’s going on?”

“They’ve gone on the run,” Fergus replied.

“We can’t let them get away! We must catch them!” Lacey growled viciously.

“I’ve told Celian to catch them no matter what,” Fergus said.

“We can’t just rely on Celian. We need to take action, too. What are we going to do about Blake’s eye if

they escape?” Lacey was frantic.

“What should we do, then?” Fergus asked.

“They probably want to leave Churron, but it’s in the middle of the night right now. There aren’t any

buses leaving the city, so they’ll have to wait at the bus. station. They can only leave in the morning.”

Lacey deduced.

“I got it. I’ll tell our people to keep an eye on the station and catch them the moment they show up!”

Fergus said.

“Don’t forget that he knows how to fight. Tell your men to bring guns with them! “Lacey reminded.

“Also, tell them to be careful. Avoid using the guns if they can. All they need to do is catch the four of

them. It’d be best if they can catch those four before they get to the station.”

What they were doing wasn’t something that could see the light of the day. They couldn’t let anyone

find out about it. Otherwise, Jerry wouldn’t be able to save them either.

Wasting no time, Fergus quickly called Celian and instructed him to barricade the road as well as

assign some men to stand guard at the station.

Once that was done, Fergus also sent some of his people to hunt down Sherry and the others.

Tom and the others were rushing to the bus station when they saw a group of burly men abruptly

appearing on the road.

Most alarmingly, the men were holding firearms.

“Oh, no! They have guns! The Jessops must’ve sent them!” Tom exclaimed the moment he saw the

men.

The women also became extremely nervous when they saw the men blocking up the road.
