Chapter 134 Set up a Dragnet
Gail recounted the incident, and upon hearing that Avery had also jumped onto the boat, Layla's first
reaction was to blame her.
"I knew she had ulterior motives. She must have had someone kidnap our child! Jacob, you must
rescue Ethan!"
If Jacob didn't have a policy against hitting women, he really wanted to rip Layla's mouth apart.
No one would utter such absurd words.
He suppressed his anger and ordered, "Drag her out."
John had already started investigating, and when Jacob saw Avery chasing after the criminals without
hesitation, it stirred something inside him once again.
He knew better than anyone that if Avery truly wanted to harm Ethan, she would have done it earlier.
She genuinely cared for the child, to the extent that she followed him even though she knew the other
party had a gun.
John looked worried and lowered his voice. "Mr. Hill, could it be that your identity has been exposed?
So they abducted Mr. Ethan in an attempt to use him as leverage?"
Jacob pursed his lips, emanating a chilling aura.
"No," Jacob outright denied.
Jacob extracted footage from the surveillance cameras showing them firing their guns. Although they
had altered their appearances, the handguns were still noticeable.
He zoomed in on the video and said, "Look, they're using MK23 pistols. This type of handgun was
issued to special forces units in the past. It possesses overwhelming firepower, similar to the 'Desert
Eagle,' but it has a significant drawback its large size. Even without a suppressor, it is inconvenient for
one-handed shooting. They wouldn't choose such a heavy and outdated weapon."
"Secondly, look at how these two boys are running away. Their movements don't resemble those of
well-trained special forces during an evacuation. So it can't be them. When those people take action,
they would directly threaten me with the lives of many people, not just a child."
"If it's not them, then who dares to go against the Hill family?" John felt puzzled.
Jacob stood tall, gazing into the distance at the vast sea with unwavering determination. "They have
put in a lot of effort to target my family. It's either for their lives or for wealth."
"That's right. Miss White had several press releases bought for this birthday banquet, especially for the
fireworks display that cost her tens of millions. It's inevitable that some people would take risks and try
to kidnap Mr. Ethan."
John sighed, "Miss White disclosed the details of the birthday banquet. Originally, our security team
was supposed to handle it, but Miss White insisted on entrusting it to her uncle. If it were just
embezzlement, it would be one thing, but unfortunately, such a major incident occurred, and even Miss
Adams got involved."
When Avery was mentioned, Jacob's brows furrowed. If the other party only wanted a ransom and
didn't intend to harm Ethan temporarily, Avery following them would actually put herself in danger.
The other side had obviously come prepared. Unlike land, which was covered in surveillance cameras,
it was difficult to escape the eyes of the sky on the sea.
Even mobile phones had no signal on the open sea, let alone finding a person.
Jacob's biggest fear was that the other party would choose uninhabited islands, making it even more
challenging to investigate.
Over the next two hours, he made numerous phone calls and set up a dragnet.
Despite doing all of this, he couldn't relax for a moment. A strong sense of worry laced his features.
The child was so young and had never been away from his family. Avery was also a fragile woman.
Just the thought of it made Jacob furrow his brows, his expression growing even darker and more This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
