?Chapter 837 Mnie''s Daring Escape
We arrived at the warehouse and met Anya. She had be less reserved and could now say a few sentences in ournguage. This surprised me, but it just proved her intelligence and eagerness to learn.
I was sure we would be able to speak without a trantor soon if she kept progressing at this pace.
The person As wanted to meet was from Bermuda, and unfortunately, there was still no good news from there. Meanwhile, Loak had been insisting that he wanted to go back.
His reasoning was simple. He was familiar with that ce and might be able to find someone quickly.
However, As had consistently refused his request.
On our way back, I asked As why he didn''t want to let Loak return. He said it wasn''t the right time, and Loak had been away for too long. He needed an opportune moment to return; otherwise, those people could be ruthless, and he feared for Loak''s safety.
We returned to Pleca Park at a veryte hour, and I received some shocking news.
Mnie had escaped from prison!
I held the phone tightly for a while before running to the study. As had said he needed to handle an urgent document and hadn''t returned to our room.
As he saw me rushing in, he asked concernedly, "What''s wrong?"
"Mnie has escaped!" I said urgently, "Will this affect Matthew''s trial?"
After all, Matthew''s case was directly rted to Mnie.
As frowned and said, "The fact that she escaped during this time will definitely have an impact on this case. This seems to be premeditated."
I walked to his side, feeling worried. As pulled me into his arms, then picked up the phone as heforted me, "Don''t worry. I’ll find out what happened."
Then he thought for a moment and made a call to have someone investigate the details of Mnie''s escape.
I called Adrian to get more information as well. He said he''d work on it and would call me back shortly.
Mnie was truly Matthew''s nemesis. With the trial approaching, her escape might mean Matthew had to remain in custody, and things were bing more uncertain.
At that moment, As''s phone rang. I focused and listened intently as he put the call on speaker.
"The inmate suddenlyined that she had severe abdominal pain tonight, and we suspected she had acute appendicitis. They couldn’t perform the surgery on her in the prison hospital, so we sent her to Klmein Hospital.
"There was a traffic ident on the way to the hospital. A dump truck had overturned and was blocking the road. The vehicle transporting the inmate to the hospital happened to be behind them and got stuck too.
"A prison guard got out to inspect the situation. At that moment, the inmate said she was in severe pain and needed to use the restroom, so another guard apanied her there. They were attacked, and the inmate escaped. We’re making every effort to apprehend her right now."
The entire scenario sounded like a scene from a blockbuster, but I caught the crucial point. I muttered to myself, "Another dump truck?"
As ended the call and called Dn, instructing him to swiftly investigate Mnie''s escape route and to keep a close eye on Keegan''s movements.
"Mnie is heading toward a dead end." As sighed.
I was speechless. This incident, which had involved an attack on the guards and an escape, had escted significantly.
"Why are you monitoring Keegan?" I asked in confusion. "Do you think this has something to do with the Thompson family as well?"
"Yes, it''s too much of a coincidence. Mnie escaped right as Matthew''s trial was approaching. That suggests that the Thompson family is on alert, and Keegan may be making a move."
I had to admire As''s quick thinking.
"Maybe this is a breakthrough." As mused to himself, then looked at me. "You go rest. I''m heading out for a while."
"Where are you going?" I asked.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
"I need to deal with the aftermath. This incident will have many repercussions. I need to be prepared," As exined. "You wait for Adrian''s call. I''ll be back soon."
I nodded, and he escorted me back to the room before going out. I didn''t see his car leaving through the main gate from upstairs, so it was likely that he had taken the secret passage.
