Reborn to My Engagement Night Chapter 203 Pummel You To A Pulp
After the car had screeched to a halt, a group of tall and burly men dressed in black swiftly got out of the vehicle. Each one of them wore a mask.
The mask bore a delicate little design. It was the customized logo of Oceanic Empire.
โGood heavens! What on earth is going on here?โ Tristan said, utterly bewildered.
Josiah and Madelyn were utterly baffled, clueless about what was going on exactly. All they knew was that the men radiated an overwhelming sense of intimidation.
At that moment, two men silently made their way over.
When one of them approached, he immediately pointed guns at the heads of Josiah and Tristan. He ordered in Uprian, โOpen the door.โ
In other words, he was blackmailing them to unlock the car door.
Josiahโs heart jolted. D*mn it! Heโs actually carrying a gun!
He looked at Madelyn hesitantly. โHey, what should we do?โ
Madelyn glanced at the guns pointed at the two boys' heads and could only heave a sigh. โIf you donโt want to die, open the door.โ
Subsequently, the car door swung open with a slight creaking sound.
At that moment, the other man clad in black leaned in. Seizing Madelyn by the shoulders, he roughly yanked her out with brute force.
โLet go of me! Who are the lot of you?โ Madelyn struggled wildly a couple of times.
However, her meager strength was simply insignificant compared to that of the burly man.
In less than a minute, Madelyn was silenced with a hand over her mouth and forced into a black car.
The guns pointed at the boys' heads were put away then, and the man wielding them got into the car as well.
Shortly after, the car sped off.
Everything happened so abruptly that Josiah was caught off guard. His mind whirred for some time before he finally registered what had happened.
As he stared at the car that had sped off into the distance, his expression suddenly changed dramatically and he shouted, โMadelyn!โ
Unfortunately, Madelyn could no longer hear him.
Tristan had also finally gathered his wits about him. Right then, he was equally anxious. โJosiah, what should we do now? Could those men earlier have been the handiwork of Jillianโs brother?โ
Deep down, however, he was profoundly shocked. What did that madwoman, Madelyn, do to get herself entangled with such a terrifying group of people?
Tristan was likewise shocked. โWe donโt even know who they are, so how are we supposed to rescue Madelyn?โ
At that moment, Josiah concentrated and pondered for a while. Suddenly, he floored the accelerator, heading straight home.
At the Blume residence, Felix was in his room right then, watching a rerun of the news on television.
The sight of the regal soldiers on television had a proud smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.
At that precise moment, Josiah suddenly barged in, frantic.
โMr. Josiah, Mr. Josiah! Old Mr. Blume has retired for the night. If thereโs anything, please discuss it with him tomorrow.โ The housekeeper followed behind him but was unable to stop him.
No sooner had those words rang out than Josiah pushed open Felixโs room door.
He never comes home once in several days. Yet, he returned in such a rush today. Seeing him, Felix was just about to speak when Josiah said urgently, โGrandpa, I need some men!โ
Felix couldnโt help but narrow his eyes.
It was the first time that unlearned and incompetent grandson of his had ever asked him for manpower.
In the past, regardless of the trouble Josiah found himself in out there, he always took it on alone. He preferred to rely on his fair-weather friends for assistance and never sought help from his family.
By then, Benedict and Mary heard that their son had returned and went straight to his grandfatherโs room, so they hurried over to check on the situation.
But just as they approached the door, they overheard him asking for manpower from Felix.
Subconsciously, they assumed that he must have gotten into trouble again. Without uttering a word, Benedict stormed in to dish out punishment.
โHave you been causing trouble out there again, you brat? Iโm going to pummel you to a pulp!โ While saying that, he swung his fist through the air.
Upon seeing that, Tristan quickly rushed over and stopped him, explaining, โPlease calm down, Mr. Benedict. Things are not what you think. Josiah didnโt cause any trouble out there. Itโs just that his friend had been taken away!โ
โWhat kind of friend?โ Felix asked calmly just then.
Thinking about Madelyn, Josiah went silent for a while before he finally said, โA female friend.โ
โWhich female friend?โ Felix was still as calm as ever.
Then, he recounted the process of Madelyn being taken away.
Felix, Benedict, and Mary were naturally aware of Madelynโs existence. After all, she brought about many changes in Josiah.
Therefore, the whole family was somewhat worried upon hearing that something had happened to her.
Felix asked anxiously, โWho exactly took her away?โ
โUmโฆ we donโt know.โ Tristan silently lowered his head.
Surprisingly, it was Josiah who was more observant when they were intercepted earlier.
And so, he answered, โGrandpa, those men must have been foreigners. Each of them wore a mask. On it was a tiny red logo. They also carried guns with them.โ
โA red logo?โ Felix mulled over those features, combing his mind for any hint or clue, but found none. His expression involuntarily became much more solemn.
In fact, even those present found themselves somewhat fearful.
Following that, he said, โThe fact that they could carry guns and were foreigners proved that they were definitely no ordinary people. I suspect they might be some assassin organization from abroad whose members are desperadoes. If they had malicious intentions this time, I fear the girl might already be in grave danger.โ
After saying that, he heaved a deep sigh.
Josiahโs expression immediately changed drastically, and his body tensed up abruptly. โWhat are we waiting for, then? Letโs go and save her!โ
Sighing in exasperation, Felix reprimanded, โDo you even know who they are before you decide to play hero, you brat? You might just be risking your own life.โ
โI donโt care. Whoever they are, I have to save her!โ Josiah was unwaveringly determined, looking all fearless.
Felix snorted coldly, then contemplated the matter at length.
The matter this time must be far from simple. Although the Blume family holds power in the military, it's a legal force. For an underworld matter concerning some international organization, itโs better to steer clear of it.
Ultimately, he had no choice but to say frostily, โNo, you are not allowed to be involved in this matter! Men, take him to his room and keep an eye on him. He must not be allowed to escape.โ
What?
Josiahโs eyes abruptly widened. โGrandpa, why are you locking me up when I need to go and save someone?โ
