Chapter 459 THEY MOVED
Chapter 459 THEY MOVED
The first thing Jayden noticed after he got out of his car was a young girl looking confused, walking toward himself and his people timidly.
In an instant, Jayden realized that it was the young girl that Apple had saved. She seemed very scared and didn't know what to do in the cold night weather that was still pouring rain.
Jayden then ordered someone to come up to the girl and get her into a car, while he walked out of his car, ignoring the raindrops drenching his expensive coat.
Apple had moved ahead and he didn't know what was happening with the girl now, so he didn't feel like wasting any more time.
On the other hand, Misha got out of the car, looking as calm as ever, checking the gun and other weapons before he followed after Jayden to the point where they had agreed to meet with Apple.
"Where is Apple now?" Misha asked Jayden, since he was the one wearing the earphones, with which he was currently trying to contact Apple.
"She had found the ship that would carry this 'shipment'," Jayden said in a low voice, answering Misha's question, while he immediately concentrated back on what Apple was saying through the communication device.
Currently, Apple was telling him the characteristics of the ship that would bring away the children and teenagers. It was a large white ship, like a private ship with an anonymous logo.
Apple then sent a picture of the logo to Jayden and instantly he realized whose logo it belonged to.
Misha who was behind him saw the logo and immediately realized who they were facing now.
"I didn't expect them to actually have a 'delivery service' like this, too," Misha muttered. They certainly realized who the owner of the logo was.
It was a special logo owned by the Gevano family. They did introduce their new company logo three years ago, but some of their goods still use the old logo.
And apparently, the ship found by Apple was one of them.
"Didn't your mother have a history with that man from the Gevano family?" Misha reminded Jayden and saw his cousin click his tongue.
Jayden of course knew about the story between his mother and Theodore Gevano, but it was only told within the family and was only for them to joke about, because Alina had met Theodore Gevano and realized the man's attitude toward their mother was unnatural.
But, it was an old story that even Jayden would have forgotten had Misha not reminded him.
"At least it's a clue," Misha said, then continued walking toward the harbor. The rain that fell made their clothes wet, but it didn't bother them at all.
On the other hand, Jayden called someone to give him more detailed information about the Gevano family and whether Theodore Gevano had any involvement with the matter, especially with Jayden's kidnapping case twelve years ago.
This was absolutely valid evidence and Jayden was not going to waste it. He would investigate further into this matter.
====================
"What do you want me to do now?" Apple asked when she saw that all the kids were already on the ship and they were getting ready to leave, while Jayden's men weren't there yet.
"Stay there," Jayden ordered.
"I can get in that ship I think," Apple said, she saw that their guard wasn't that tight and she thought it was very possible for her to sneak inside. "What do you say? We'll lose them if they ever get out of here, unless you have a ship here to catch up with them and that's sure to attract a lot of attention."
Apple would get in there the very moment Jayden approved the idea.
"You are talking a lot tonight," Jayden grumbled, frowning when he heard Apple babble. "Go if you think you can sneak in there."
"Okay," Apple replied lightly.
"Don't kill those people, I want to question them," Jayden warned Apple.
Luckily, Jayden didn't see the expression Apple made when she heard his words. Her face morphed into a scowl as she stared at the mast very cynically, as if the mast was Jayden Tordoff.
"For God's sake," Apple grumbled. "They are about seven fully armed adults, while I m just a young woman with a gun and knife in hand, aren't you worried about the wrong person?"
Jayden laughed softly and this made Misha frown out of curiosity at what Apple said to make his cousin laugh like that.
"I am sure you can beat them without difficulty," Jayden replied. "Don't worry, I'll become your white knight if you really can't stand them."
"I don't need a white knight." And after that, Apple turned off the communication device again before Jayden replied to her words after she announced that she was going to get on the ship.
Apple then walked slowly toward the ship, deliberately walking on the side where there was a shadow so that she could hide herself well. And after she got close, Apple jumped onto the ship's deck and rolled herself behind a fairly large container, hiding there.
Because not far from her, there were two men who were talking to each other.
It wasn't until the two men walked away that Apple restarted the communication device and notified Jayden that she was already on the ship.
"Now what?" Apple asked. "They have started the engine and I think this ship will start moving any time now."
"Find out where they hid the girls," Jayden ordered and Apple agreed.
Even from the communication device, Jayden could hear the ship starting to move, with Apple on board.
"They have moved?" Misha asked Jayden.
"Yes," Jayden replied briefly and then quickened his pace, but immediately stopped when the two people who had run ahead of them, started shooting.
It seemed their whereabouts had been exposed and now their journey to approach Apple was delayed.
