Chapter 438
Chapter 438 He saw an unexpected person!
Sterling changed into the clothes of the black-clad person, put on a tightly wrapped mask, and after locking the black-clad person in a cage, walked out.
What came into view was a majestic and magnificent main castle, built in ancient Roman style, with several small oval-shaped subsidiary castles around it.
The one he just came out of is one of the subsidiary forts, with a house number marked on it. Fort No. 6.
After glancing around, Sterling walked towards the main castle.
We walked for a while and saw a helicopter slowly descending onto a spacious landing pad. In a moment, the cabin door opened.
Awoman sitting in a wheelchair appeared in his line of sight.
Sterling’s pitch-black pupils contracted sharply.
Gianna!
How could she be here?
After Gianna’s bodyguard carried her down, Aunt Wu pushed her
towards the main castle.
Sterling hid in the shadows and quietly followed.
Chapter 438 He saw an unexpected person!
Avoiding the surveillance, he reached the second floor of the main castle.
Gianna was pushed into the second-floor study by Aunt Wu, while Sterling stood at the doorway and pushed it open, peering inside. through the narrow gap.
There stood a tall and upright figure in the study, a man standing by the window without turning around. Judging from his back, he seemed to be a very young man.
Gianna looked up at the man by the window, her expression appearing somewhat excited. “Laney, have things been progressing smoothly?”
The man slowly turned around, just as Sterling had expected, revealing a young and handsome face.
The man with sharp black eyes looked at the woman in the wheelchair and said. “It’s all thanks to your brilliant idea to use Anika to get close to him, that we were able to successfully capture him!”
Upon hearing the man’s words, Sterling looked back at Gianna in the wheelchair. Gianna looked into the man’s eyes with a hint of cautious eagerness, saying, “I will do everything in my power to help you with whatever Laney wants to do!”
Sterling’s heart tightened violently, and his hands hanging by his side clenched tightly into fists. When he was very young, he knew that Gianna didn’t like him. However, he didn’t expect that she actually disliked him to the point of wanting him dead!
Sterling’s face turned dark and sinister to the extreme. He tightly suppressed the raging emotions within him, only to maintain control and prevent himself from impulsively rushing in to strangle that
Chapter 438 He saw an unexpected person! woman!
“Laney, don’t worry, | have taken care of his disappearance,” Gianna reached out and grabbed the young man’s sleeve, “Just say he went abroad to visit me and got caught up in a riot, unable to be found.”
The young man coldly stared at Gianna, “Arrange for someone to take over the Howard Group as soon as possible on the Howard family’s side.”
“Yes, don’t worry. | have already made all the arrangements. Once we obtain the shares in Grandpa's hands, the Howard Group will also belong to you in the future!”
Sterling heard the conversation between the two people, and his heart felt like it was on fire. Their plan worked out really well!
“Laney, can you...call me mom?”
Upon hearing Gianna’s words, Sterling was startled once again.
Gianna looked into the young man’s eyes, filled with pleading and anticipation, and it was not as cold and indifferent as when she faced him.
Her current appearance is just like that of a mother!
When Sterling was fourteen, he once doubted that he was not Gianna’s biological child. He secretly took her hair and did a DNA test.
The result showed that she was his biological mother!
So now, why is Gianna having this young man, who is about the same age as her, call her “mom”? Chapter 435 He saw an unexpected person!
Did she have two children back then?
Just as Sterling was full of doubts, there was a commotion at the staircase.
Someone came up!
Sterling quickly darted into one of the rooms and jumped out of the window.
Before Deon and Shawn arrived, he couldn’t make any move.
With his own strength, he couldn’t temporarily contend with them.
As Sterling walked out of the main castle, someone came up to him. and called him.
“4212, what are you doing here? Did you deliver the food to the personnel at the 9th Sub-Fortress?”
The person who called him was a fat aunt. She stuffed the basket in her hand into his hand and said, “Hurry up and take it to the cafeteria to eat, or there won't be anything to eat later!”.
Sterling nodded and walked towards Sub-fortress No. 9.
Sterling found the No. 9 sub-fortress and swiped the access card, successfully entering.
The imprisoned person was in the basement.
| went downstairs and inside it looked like a small underground prison.
This place was probably built in the sea, it was particularly damp and
dark.
Several dim light bulbs emitted a faint yellow light.
Chapter 438 He saw an unexpected person!
There were approximately six people detained here.
Each person was an individual iron cage cell.
These people should have been kept longer, each with a thin face, low spirits, and a dazed expression. Some of them were still lying on the iron beds, motionless.
The dim and empty prison was particularly quiet, and Sterling’s steady footsteps seemed especially clear. Sterling placed food in each iron cage..
When he reached the last iron cage, he saw a disheveled woman sitting on the chair.
The woman was extremely thin, so thin that her bones were visible.
She heard a sound and looked up at the iron cage.
A pair of eyes stared quietly at Sterling.
Unlike the people before her, this woman appeared much more serene.
Sterling took two steps forward and set down the food.
In the moment when he lifted his head and looked at the woman, his body suddenly froze.
The two individuals locked eyes.
The woman had a pair of beautifully shaped eyes, exactly like Audrey's.
Just like a stagnant pool, the woman’s-eyes were devoid of any emotional fluctuations.
Sterling’s breath suddenly paused for a few moments.
He approached the iron cage and asked in a hoarse voice, “Are you Audrey’s mother, Aurora?”
The woman was obviously drugged as well, and her reaction seemed somewhat sluggish.
After several seconds, the lifeless pupils finally rippled with delicate. ripples.
She wanted to get up from the chair, but her body was tied to the chair and she couldn’t stand up at all. It seemed like she hadn’t spoken for a long time. Her voice hoarsely uttered a few sounds, and then she started sobbing. Sterling looked at the woman’s appearance and felt extremely sad in his heart.
Was all of this caused by Gianna and that young man?
However, Gianna always believed that Audrey’s mother had died. She probably didn’t know that she was being held captive here, otherwise, she wouldn't have spared her life!
“Do you know who kept you locked up here? What was their purpose in keeping you here?”
The woman looked at Sterling, shaking her head with tears blurring. her vision.
She seemed unable to make any sound from her throat.
Sterling pursed his lips tightly and nodded heavily towards the woman, “Don’t worry, | will save you!” Just as Sterling finished speaking, a sharp alarm suddenly went off.
Acold voice came through the earphones, “The newly captured one is. missing. He knocked out 1212 and was wearing his clothes. Capture him quickly.”Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Sterling glanced at the woman and said, “I have to leave now, but don’t worry, | will come to rescue you soon!” Sterling left the underground prison before the people chasing him arrived. He took out electronic products from the toolbox and contacted Shawn and Deon. “Where were you guys?”
