Gerald leaned inside the narrow passageway. He looked at Stella's face.
He then listened to the sound outside. Clearly, those people would not immediately stop their search. They flipped every stone in their search for their target.
Jasmine was so anxious that her forehead was filled with cold sweat grains.
There was no way to avoid this if they allowed everything to continue without taking action.
Gerald is behind the group, and Stella is right next to Gerald.
At that moment, Gerald took out a very beautiful yet compact instrument from his pocket.
Stella was shocked when she saw the device. He knew that it was something extraordinary, something that you could not get in the ordinary consumer market.
Gerald then gestured for her to remain silent.
After that, he pressed a button on the device, which most likely produced a distress signal.
“This.... what is this? Will this thing save our lives?”
Stella asked with wide eyes.
Gerald pressed his head and whispered in his ear, “Forget anything you just saw. Don't spit out nonsense!”
Stela nodded enthusiastically.
As curious as the abnormal-looking device was, she was more curious about the meaning behind Gerald making physical contact with his head.
And they stayed in the hallway for almost ten minutes.
At that moment, they heard a buzzing sound from the sky outside.
“What sound is it?”
“Bos, something's wrong. We're surrounded. There are about ten helicopters above us that appear out of nowhere! If we don't leave now, it will be too late!”
They immediately heard people shouting outside.
"What's? Damnit damnit! Back up soon!”
After which, they heard the sounds of several men rushing out of the house.
Stela widened her eyes. Clearly, he was shocked by what the man said so loudly.
'Gerald ordered these helicopters to come as reinforcements?'
'Is that true?'
'Who exactly is Gerald?
'Is this how powerful rich kids are today?'
Immediately, the buzzing sound of the helicopter disappeared gradually.
“We're safe now. Let's go!" Said the woman hiding behind Gerald.
Jasmine then walked out of the hallway with a puzzled expression.
Gerald emerged from the hallway as well.
And the scar-faced woman was the last one to leave.
However, as he walked up the stairs, he stumbled slightly due to something under his feet.
He took it and glanced at it. It was a jade pendant.
He remembered now, it had fallen out of the youngster's pocket when he took out his little gadget just now.
But after he rubbed his finger onto the jade pendant, the woman's body began to tremble uncontrollably.
The hallway where they were hiding was pitch-black. The woman could only use her senses to sense the shape of the pendant.
"It's…"
Suddenly, he continued to tremble in fear.
"Hmm? Why hasn't the woman come out?”
"That's fine. Mom, they're gone, you can get out now!”
shout Marven.
The woman then emerged from the hallway.
“Thank you for saving our ass, Mom. It's a little award prize. Don't worry, we will send Xenia home when we find the person we are looking for!”
Jasmine placed the debit card on the table. “His password is Xenia's birthday!”
“Jasmine, no time to lose. I think we better get going fast. We're almost dead now. But don't you feel weird? Where did the helicopters come from, and why did they save us?”
mindy was confused.
Yasmine shook her head. “I'm not sure either. Let's talk about it later after we leave. Let's go, Gerald!”
It seemed like Jasmine indeed knew where the maid was!
Gerald nodded small. He led Marven and the others out of the house.
"Young man, wait a minute!"
The woman called out to Gerald in a somewhat emotional tone suddenly ...
