My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back (Mia and Kyle) novel Chapter 499

"Unless an entire army division equipped with advanced weapons attacks them. Then you can worry. But if it’s just one person or a platoon of soldiers, we have nothing to worry about." Owen continues his words.

"Alright. I trust you," Reid replied, although his expression revealed his doubts. "But I still need to go look after them even though they are that strong..." he said, tapping Owen’s shoulder before leaving.

Reid still needed to find his boss for his own peace of mind. He was worried that if something happened to Tristan, his lady boss would kill him for sure.

At the same time, a soldier, checking the four-meter-high wall covered in vines with barbed wire on top, shouted, "Sir, I found something."

Owen and the others turned to look at him, including Reid, who stopped walking and turned back toward the wall.

"What’s wrong?"

"I found a blood trail. But I don’t know if it’s human or animal blood—"

"Blood trail?"

"Yes, sir," the soldier said while pointing his cell phone flashlight at the blood trail.

"Looks like the person who ran away was in a hurry, so they didn’t wear shoes."

"Yes, they might have injured his feet without knowing."

"Find the hidden door now!" Reid said quickly while he was also searching.

The area was very dark, and they had to rely on the light from their cell phone flashlights.

After a few more minutes, Owen finally found the hidden door. After opening it successfully, thorny and dense bushes greeted them; only a tiny path could fit one person.

They struggled through the path, and after a few more minutes, they finally escaped from the thorny bushes.

Later, they found a stone path. As they walked a few meters away from the villa, they heard human howls coming from the forest, causing Reid and Owen to stop and start running.

"Damn it! They’re fighting," Reid clenched his teeth as he sprinted toward the source of the howls.

It didn’t take long for the voices to become louder, and soon they spotted people. But a few meters ahead, Reid and Owen abruptly stopped, causing a few men behind them to stop.

What happened ahead of them was enough to stun Reid. He saw a man lying motionless on the ground, and what he heard from his master nearly caused him to trip on his own feet.

"Geoffrey, I can’t believe how weak gangsters are nowadays; they’re nothing like the ones I fought in the past."

Tristan took a deep sigh as he walked near the man and stepped on the man’s uninjured hand so hard that the sound of breaking bones could be heard.

Geoffrey asked, "Master, why did you injure his other hand?"

"I just wanted to make sure this man wasn’t pretending. You know... he might be good at acting too, right?"

"You’re right, sir."
