Grief, Betrayals, and a Core of Blaze

Chapter 551 Take Him Away

Based on these thoughts, Jensen's mind was filled with suspicion. Rachel felt Jensen's gaze land on her and knew he was likely becoming suspicious. No matter what, Jensen was a company president; he couldn't be a fool. She could keep Jensen's true identity from him, but Loretta shouldn't think she could reap the benefits. This was her son! She wanted Jensen to discover the truth for himself and then turn on Loretta. That would be perfect. By then, the entire Luke family fortune might just be hers. Rachel felt much more at ease at this thought. "Alright, pack up. We’re heading to the airport soon." Rachel finished speaking and handed Jensen a set of clothes. This was the first outfit she had ever bought for her son, and Rachel felt excited. But Jensen merely glanced at it, not bothering to take them. "My pajamas are fine. What is this junk you bought? You think this is fit for me to wear? Hah!" Jensen's words made Rachel's blood pressure spike again. She could only suppress the rage in her heart by repeatedly telling herself: He's my son. Seeing her so angry, Jensen felt inexplicably satisfied. "Hey, twenty-odd years ago, when Natalie was switched at birth, were you involved?" Jensen suddenly asked. Rachel's body stiffened, and she turned to look at Jensen. "Are you really that fond of that girl Natalie?" "Yes. I love her so much I'd give my life for her." Jensen's words made Rachel want to spit blood again. "If you like her so much, why didn't you treasure her? Why did you have to get involved with Sharon?" "I made a mistake, but she has always been in my heart. Right now, she wants to know the truth about being switched at birth two decades ago. If you know about it and were involved, you'd better tell me. Otherwise, if you end up dead without a corpse, don't say I didn't warn you.""Jensen!" Rachel was shaking with anger. Is that any way for a son to speak? He was actually cursing her to die without a body? Jensen, however, nonchalantly picked his ear and said, "It's fine if you don't talk now. You'll talk eventually. I can wait." After that, he ignored Rachel. Rachel's eyes were red, but she could only leave the room in a huff. She quickly made a call to James. "It's almost time. Are you ready over there?" "Don't worry, everything is set. If the Luke family arranges your departure from Ocean City properly, there won't be any issues. But if they dare to cross you, I guarantee Jensen will die without a burial place." James' words made Rachel furious. "I told you, do not hurt Jensen! No matter what happens, do not hurt Jensen!" "Are you crazy? If something really happens, he's the one who sold you out, and you still can't bear to touch him? What's wrong? You've fallen for this pretty boy?" James started to tease her. Rachel shot back, "Watch your filthy mouth. If anything happens to Jensen, I guarantee I'll make your life with the Boss a living hell. You should know how high my standing with the Boss has been all these years." James' smile instantly froze on his face. "I get it. Everything is set. We can move." After speaking, James hung up, but a cold glint flashed in his eyes because of Rachel's words. Detestable old woman! How dare she threaten him! But he didn't dare let anything happen to Rachel; it would be hard to answer to the Boss. James stood up, somewhat reluctantly, grabbed his jacket, and headed for the door. But the moment he opened it, a gun was pressed straight against his temple. "Who are you? What do you want?" James instinctively tried to reach for his waist, but Shauna grabbed his shoulder, slammed him against the wall, and reached in to pull the gun from his waistband. "Yo, daring to carry a concealed gun in Ocean City. You've got some nerve. Or is it that your backers are just that powerful?" James' face instantly paled. He tried to struggle, but his arm felt like it was about to be dislocated, and his body was immobilized. His face was pressed hard against the wall, the cold sensation a stark contrast to the panic in his heart. However, thinking of the person behind him, James regained a bit of confidence. "Since you know my backers are powerful, you still dare to treat me like this. You must be tired of living." "Well, damn! I've seen people push their luck, but I've never seen anyone as stupid as you. You really think I'm afraid of your backers? If I was scared, would I be here to catch you?" Shauna slapped him on the back of the head. "Take him away!" Following her order, James' mouth was covered, his eyes were blindfolded, and he was dragged away.
