Chapter 978
“If you dare to hurt my Ruthie, I’ll scatter your bones all over this place!” All of a sudden, a loud snarl echoed
through the air as two cars screeched to a halt.
The car door swung open, and George stepped out of the car, his eyes ablaze with rage and his aura
pulsating, followed closely behind by a few of the Collins‘ master martial artists.
“My grandfather’s here!” Ruth was overjoyed to see this and immediately, all her despair and sorrow dissipated, but
she was not the only one feeling this way–Leon, Iris, and the rest were also delighted to see George arrive, and a
glimmer of hope ignited within them.
In contrast, the previously triumphant smile froze on Harold’s face.

rage when he saw that Harold had his hands on Ruth, and he immediately zeroed in on how pale Ruth’s face was,
as well as the drop of blood clinging onto the corner of her mouth. It was clear she suffered substantial injuries.
“Don’t jump to conclusions, George! This is all Ruth deserves, and no one’s to blame for this!” Harold said coldly
without a hint of fear. Even though he was scared of the Collins and their power, he knew that since he gained
control over the Youngs, and with their powers combined, there was nothing to be afraid of.
“Nonsense! Harold, I’ll give you one chance to let go of Ruthie, and if you don’t, I’ll let you taste my wrath!” George
took a deep breath and tried to suppress his anger, considering that Ruth was still being held hostage by Harold, he
did not want to provoke Harold too much.

go as you say, as long as you tell Leon to let go of my son too!” Harold replied coldly. Now that George and the rest
of the Collins arrived, he knew that he stood no chance of killing Leon anymore, and the most important thing he
had to do now was ensure Jacob’s safety!
George immediately turned to Leon. “Leon, let go of Jacob, and Ruth will be safe!”
“Alright! Harold, on the count of three, we’ll let go of our hostages together!” Leon declared.
“Oh okay! Bring Jacob to the center, and we’ll exchange them right there. That way, none of us will be able to play
tricks on each other!” Harold was silent for a moment, then quickly agreed, but no one seemed to notice the
glimmer of mischief that flashed through his eyes.
“Wait!” Leon was not at all impatient to exchange hostages but instead turned to glance at Gilbert, Iris, and the
rest. “Iris, you and Mister Young can leave first!”
“No, I won’t. I want to leave with you!” Iris replied, shaking her head. She knew that things were far from ending,
and if Leon did not leave with her, she could not bear to leave him behind.

“Iris, please don’t worry. Nothing will happen to me! You leave first, and don’t think about me!” Leon tried to
reassure her. However, he knew full well that even after exchanging hostages, there was no way he would get out
of a battle with Harold, and if Iris stayed behind, he would be preoccupied with her safety, and thus needed to send
her away first!
“But,” Iris was still hesitant.
“No more but’s, Iris! If we stay, we’re only going to drag Leon down. We’d better leave while we can!” Louisa
tried to persuade her.
“Oh, alright then.” After a moment’s hesitation, Iris realized she was right. If they did not drag Leon back, he would
have defeated Harold by now!
