Chapter 310

Sean’s expression grew serious. “This time, I brought in two teams of mercenaries from overseas. They’re even more highly trained than the ones Joseph had at his base. With them protecting you and your family, his men won’t be able to harm you again ”

“Mercenaries?”

Charlotte blinked.“)

Sean pressed his lips together. Guils flickered in his eyes, “It was my mistake. I didn’t protect you or your family properly before. Lottie, I promise you nothing like that will happen again. I’ll keep you sade.”

Charlotte lowered her gaze, her feelings complicated

She had been ready to throw a few cold words his way, but the memory of him risking his life to save her stopped her. The words caught in her throat. In the end, she said nothing

Sean, seeing her silence, thought she didn’t believe him. His throat tightened, a wave of bitterness rising inside.

Soon they arrived at Sean’s private compound.

Jodie had been rescued by one of Sean’s top men, Jack Lee.

Tack was the head commander of Sean’s overseas base. It was rare for someone at his level to take part in field missions. Most of the time, he delegated to his team. Only the most critical, sensitive operations warranted his personal involvement.

hell his years working for Sean, Jack had never been sent on a mission to rescue a child.

When he first got the order, he was stunned. He had even double–checked it. But when Seen confirmed it personally, Jack accepted without question

In Atlantis, Joseph’s influence was overwhelming. But it was a country where firearms were legal, and Sean’s men were not constrained there.

Rescuing one person wasn’t difficult. Jack could have sent a trusted field leader with a few teams of mercenaries and been done with it. It shouldn’t have required his direct involvement.

Still, Jack had always followed Sean’s orders without hesitation. If Sean wanted him to lead this mission personally, there had to be a reason.

Joseph’s men weren’t as skilled as those from Sean’s overseas base, but they were no pushovers

Five of Jack’s operatives were injured during the mission, three of them seriously. Thankfully, they hart brought a top–tier medical team along. The injured were treated immediately on the belicopter, and all of their lives were saved.

The flight from Anne City back to the base in Jersey City had taken nearly seven hours.

When th

they first rescued Jodie, she e had been unconscious.

A quick medical exam confirmed that she had tainted from exhaustion and hunger. After a glucose injection, she came to on the helicopter.

The little girl had been terrified.

She curled up in her seat, hugging her knees, her small face deathly pale. Her wide, tearful eyes were full of fear

One of Jack’s younger men glanced over at her, curiosity in his voice. “Boss, who is this girl? Why did you have to come in person to save her?”

Jack shook his head. “I don’t know. Mr. Jasper didn’t say.”

The young man’s name was Enzo Yates. He was one of the elite mercenaries on the mission

Though only seventeen, he had been in training for nine years and had never failed a mission. His skills surpassed many seasoned veterans. Among Jack’s men, be ranked in the top three.

Enza had taken a bullerto the ann. His handages were soaked through with blood, but he didn’t complain. He simply smiled and said, “Then she must be very important to Mr. Jasper.”

She recognized him. He was the one who had carried her out of that dark dungeon. He had been shot while protecting her.

It was a habit of his. Whenever he wa

Jodie hesitated in her corner. Her lips were pale, and her gaze flickered between the candy and his bloodied hand

After a moment, she reached out cautiously and took the candy. “Thank you,” she whispered.

Enzo grinned. “Such good marmers.”
