No Escape From Mr. CEO's Dangerous Love

Chapter 194

The SWAT team found nothing but a wasteland at the location from where the call was made. When they called the number again, it was no longer registered.

Harry drove to Newman Mansion immediately.

Other family members had started returning back home right away as well, to meet up with each other in the living room and consult between them about the matter at hand.

The kidnapper asked for the old pocket watch, but they found no possible suspect after their long discussion.

They exchanged glances with each other when Harry showed up. They knew how much this man had done for Lola and Nicole these last couple of days. Landon stood up and showed him to a seat on the couch.

"I will go with Mr. Newman tomorrow." Harry's request left all others in complete silence. Of course he ought to go, he had the right to, because, after all, he was Nicole's father. However he'd also better not go, as he would soon walk out of Lola and Nicole's world.

"Mr. Lewis, you don't have to do this for us. Harold or Jordan would accompany him with no problems." Angie refused him in an indirect way. She was clear about the complexity of his relationship with Lola, and after all, it was their family affair.

Harry understood their concern. "I love Lola. And I will certainly not step back now when she's in danger!" It was not easy to turn him down considering his uncompromising and proud attitude.

After another half hour or so, Harry left them.

At midnight, Angie got a message: "Central Pier of East District. Only Landon should be there, or Nicole would lose her life."

The sender was tracked immediately, but again, there was nothing but a wasteland at the location and soon the number didn't exist anymore. These guys were serious in hiding their traces.

Angie leaned against the headboard. How did they know her number?

And Nicole was kidnapped in their own back garden. Could it be that someone they knew had sneaked into this house and all this was just a part of a longtime conspiracy?

It was a sleepless night for Harold too. They must have demanded Landon's presence intentionally, because it seemed that they clearly had a plan to pick out only the aged and children, who could barely defend themselves.

"Get some sleep, my love. We need to prepare ourselves for tomorrow." Harold tucked Angie up in bed and switched off the lights.

In the darkness of the night, a woman sneered as all the lights went off in the Newman Mansion.

Harry stayed up to 4 am to prepare for everything, and after he had a quick nap, he came to pick up Landon at 8 am. Landon got in the car with the old pocket watch, while Jordan and Harold followed them in another car until Angie eventually called them.

"Harold, they said you and Jordan have to come back now or they will kill Nicole!" Harold frowned and looked around cautiously. Nothing seemed suspicious.

They were watched without noticing! That was not a good sign.

"Go back. Now." Harold shot a quick look at Jordan, and Jordan turned around the car without uttering a single a word.

In the Central Pier.

Harry parked the car near the seaside, and helped Landon get out of the car. With Harry's helping him, he walked to the wharf.

The tranquility in the gentle breeze cool air and calm water somehow indicated the prelude of something unusual that was about to happen.

Harry's phone rang. "Yes, Mrs. Newman."

"They asked you to leave." Angie kept getting calls from different numbers and started hearing a different voice each time.

Harry hung up, updated Landon on what happened and checked the surrounding area.

When he was just about to leave, something happened.

A yacht was approaching the shore, with a board connected behind by only a rope. A little girl was on the board, and was floating unsteadily.

Harry clenched his fists at the sight of this, and Landon couldn't contain his anger anymore. "Nicole! How could they do that to a child!" He hit the wharf heavily with his walking stick.

At this moment, Harry's phone rang again. Foreseeing what this call was about, he stepped backwards. As the yacht got to the wharf, a hooded man came out of it and shouted at him with a gun pointing at Nicole: "Give me the watch!"

Landon raised the watch in the air and showed it to him.

Soon, another hooded person got near Landon with a weapon. "Give it to me," he said.

They had been commanded to kill the old man once the watch was in their hands!

The area was safe, and there was practically nothing or no one nearby except a ship and several boats offshore in the distance.

Harry drew his weapon from behind. Nicole was on the board. What about Lola? This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

Was she also on that ship?

Landon passed the watch to the man, who checked it

and who aimed his gun at Landon at once. Landon, to his surprise, suddenly knocked the weapon out of his hand with the walking stick. The weapon dropped into the sea and its owner was holding his arm out in pain. Landon hit him again and made him kneel down.

Just then Harry fired his weapon, aiming at the man on the yacht and hitting him right in his arm. After a short screech, his weapon fell into the sea as well.

The kidnapper looked sinister. He got a knife from the cabin, cut off the rope, hid in the cabin and drove the yacht away.

The narrow and thin board started to wobble along the waves. Nicole grasped it tightly, and saw Uncle Harry taking off the shirt and jumping into the sea to save her.

Mommy told her not to panic. They would be rescued! And Mommy was right. Uncle Harry came to rescue her, and Nicole grinned joyfully at his sight.

Several guys appeared on the ship and now aimed their weapons at Harry.

But also, in the meantime, the task forces in the noise-muffling helicopters overhead were aiming at the ship.

In no time at all, a chain of firing sounds was heard all over the place. Harry spared no effort to swim towards Nicole.

A bullet got through Nicole's skirt and the board that supported her. "Hang in there, Nicole!" Harry prayed to himself.

But soon Harry was hurt by a bullet shot to his arm. He groaned, and the water around him turned red.

He was now only 2 meters away from Nicole, so in spite of the sharp pain, he couldn't slow down.

Several villains were put down by the police forces shooting from up in the air. However, some more came out and started to shoot at Harry and Nicole like mad. Fortunately, they were quickly shot down before they could succeed any way in their vile attempts.

On the ship, a tall man crept out to the deck and hid himself under a door roof, so that the police couldn't spot him. But Harry could. And that man was pointing his gun at Nicole, who was now smiling at her Uncle Harry!

Harry exhausted his remaining energy and threw himself on Nicole to shield her from the bullet with his own body. A bullet hit one of his shoulders brutally and his face turned to pale.
