BXBX NOVEL Chapter 566: 569: The People Sent to Kidnap Were All Knocked Out
One of them was still missing, his whereabouts unknown and his life or death uncertain.
At such a critical moment, Hannah Ford came to him again, asking him to abduct Lily Gray.
This… was way too dangerous.
“Uncle Mark, you should know why I came back this time. I’ve been recovering recently, and my health has improved a lot. You must have heard about my relationship with Aidan Lucas.”
“Now, as long as Lily Gray is out of the way, there will be no obstacles, and I can marry Aidan legitimately.”
“I know,” Uncle Mark hesitated, “but it’s really inconvenient under the current circumstances…”
“Uncle Mark, believe me! Once you eliminate Lily Gray, I will become the lady of the Lucas family, and my child will be the Lucas family’s future head.”
“My grandmother is having a hard time in the Scott family. If I help, wouldn’t it be easier to defeat Larry Scott and Sylvia Scott? Uncle Mark, please, I’m begging you, help me this time, for my grandmother’s sake!”
It had to be said that Hannah Ford’s words were very inciting.
Uncle Mark hesitated for only a few seconds before agreeing to send people to abduct Lily Gray again.
…
However, a few days later.
“Uncle Mark, what are you saying!?”
Hannah Ford could never have imagined that in just a few short days, Uncle Mark would throw in the towel.
“I’m sorry, Miss Bright. I can’t continue with the task you entrusted to me. None of the people I sent out have come back. Yesterday, I sent some more people to look for them, only to find out… they were all knocked out and left at the police station’s doorstep.”
Most of the people left under Uncle Mark’s command had criminal records.
They had never messed up while working secretly for many years.
But this time, they were all taken down silently, beaten, and left unconscious outside the police station.
Through a lawyer’s contact, Uncle Mark learned from the accounts of some of those serious criminals now in police custody.
He discovered there was such a talented person beside Lily Gray.
“Miss Bright, I’ve asked around. They hadn’t even approached the Gray family, but were simply monitoring from a distance when a man, whose appearance they couldn’t see clearly, took them out.”
“One of them only managed to catch a glimpse of him before passing out. According to him, the other party should be a foreigner, and there’s nothing else to go on.”
“Miss Bright, let’s just forget about this… Leave Lily Gray alone for now. Since you and Mr. Lucas truly love each other, I advise you to wait.”
“The more you do, the more mistakes you make. It’s better to leave some things to Mr. Lucas to handle.”
“I… Wait…” Hannah Ford hadn’t finished speaking when Uncle Mark hung up the phone.
Listening to the busy tone on the other end of the phone.
Hannah Ford was so angry she almost smashed her cell phone to the ground.
Lily Gray—
How dare she!!!
How dare she have so many people protect her wherever she goes!
The last kidnapping attempt had failed to kill her.
This time, they didn’t even have a chance to get close to her.
Hannah Ford’s face turned pale with anger, and she pressed her left hand tightly to her chest.
She would not accept defeat, she just wouldn’t…
Lily Gray…
She refused to believe there was nothing she could do about that woman!

At this moment, Lily Gray was watching television in her room with Skye Brown.
The cell phone suddenly rang, and she picked it up to see an unfamiliar number.
After hesitating for a few seconds, she answered it.
“Hello, who are you…”
“Hmph, you’re Lily Gray, aren’t you?”
Lily Gray was taken aback for a moment, baffled, “Who are you looking for?”
“Stop pretending, I know you’re Lily Gray! The person I’m looking for is you!”
The other party was almost unreasonable and sounded incredibly arrogant.
