She Is A Ceo Novel George Chapman Chapter 561
Jacob had been on the run for a long time, and he hadn’t let down his guard after threatening Spencer with a good deal.
Because he’d been living in a slum, he developed a state of mental tension at all times. Over these days, Jacob always felt
something wrong around, but can not tell why.
Just to be on the safe side, and to test some hunches, Jacob snuck out the window of the apartment that night, climbed down
the fire escape to the balcony below, and spent more than an hour on the balcony. He was found by the owner of the apartment.
When Jacob was seen, he did not panic and told the owner bluntly that there seemed to be strangers looking for him upstairs,
and that the owner had dealt with Jacob several times, so he really went upstairs to for him to see the situation. Ten minutes
later, he came down, full of panic.
“How’s it going?” Jacob could tell by the look on his face that something was wrong.
As luck would have it, the night when Jacob had a hunch, it was time for the bodyguards to make the arrest. They confirmed that
Jacob returned to his apartment and waited for an hour before making the raid, but when they broke into the apartment, there
was no one there. Jacob had long gone.
When they got out of the apartment to search elsewhere, they ran into another owner of the apartment. Due to the severity of the
law, they had to leave quickly. It was too late to search elsewhere.
The owner of the apartment is the man who helped Jacob upstairs to check on the situation.
“Mr. Taylor, you’re right. A group of masked men in black broke into your room just now! Call the police right away!” The owner
said worriedly.
But Jacob shook his head. “Are you sure they’re gone?” He asked
“Yes, I watched them get into the elevator and go down to the first floor,” the owner said.
“Okay, thank you, but you don’t have to call the police. I have a personal vendetta with these people, so it’s useless to call the
police. Thank you.” After thanking him repeatedly, Jacob left the house and went back upstairs to observe the room in the dark
for more than ten minutes. After confirming that there was no one around, he quickly went back to his room to pack up his things
and turned on the computer to clear all traces before leaving.
He was so scared that he was sure they were Spencer’s men. Recalling that he suddenly called him more than a month ago for
a conversation, he guessed that Spencer was no longer willing to offer him asylum, even had a murderous intent.
“Spencer! You’re a badass. We’ll see about that!” Jacob murmured as he left San Francisco in the dark of the night.
After leaving the apartment, the head of security guiltily reported the failed mission to Otis, who was silent for a long time before
saying,
“Looks like Jacob was on his guard, and Spencer’s and didn’t catch him too?”
“I don’t think so,” the head of security replied. “We had already sent people to harass the killer before we could do it. He didn’t
have a chance to kill Jacob.”
“Got it. Keep searching for Jacob in San Francisco. Maybe he’s not far away.” Otis didn’t channel his disappointment into anger
at his bodyguards, but instead thought about what to do next.
“We’ll do our best to search him!” In order to make up for the mistake, the head of the bodyguard made a solemn promise. As
soon as he ended the call with Otis, his group started running around without any rest. Unfortunately, there was no trace of him.
Jacob really disappeared into thin air.
Otis put down his phone, feeling extremely depressed. He had thought that Jacob would be captured this time, but he had
escaped. How could he tell Lucia the news?
While Otis was struggling with how to talk to Lucia, Spencer also got a bad news. Dan sent him a message. The mission failed,
and Jacob was missing.
Spencer and Lucia had just returned to Athegate, but Spencer was furious when he received the bad news without a break from
the plane.
“Dan! What’s the matter with you! You can’t handle Jacob?!”
“I’m sorry. I don’t know what happened, but a couple of guys came up to harass me while I was spying on Jacob. I got distracted
and...” Dan explained. He was also very upset. He had always thought very high of himself, but he rarely missed the time.
“Someone’s harassing you?” Spencer didn’t believe him. “Dan, you’re a professional killer! Does anyone else know where you’re
hiding? Or are you crouching down on the street to prepare for a sniper attack?!”
“I hid myself well!” The self-respecting Dan couldn’t stand Spencer’s sarcasm and quickly replied, “But somehow, I was caught.”
Spencer felt that something was wrong when he heard that. He knew Dan’s ability better than anyone else. If he had hidden
himself so well, why would anyone find out about him? Unless...
“Looks like Lucia already knew I’d send someone to take care of Jacob.” Spencer wasn’t guessing. He was sure!
“Are you saying Lucia asked those people to do it?” Dan raised an eyebrow.
“Absolutely!” Spencer said firmly. “There’s no such thing as an unexplained coincidence. When her men were about to capture
Jacob, someone happened to stumble upon your hiding place. Is that such a coincidence?”
Dan thought for a moment and said, “It seems that we are also in the middle of her plot...”
“Lucia is smart,” Spencer said with a chuckle. “But it wasn’t worth it. We didn’t get Jacob, and she didn’t get him too.”
“I don’t know where Jacob is now. We’ve also checked the computer in his apartment. He used a virus to erase all traces. Mr.
Davies, will he betray you?”
“No,” Spencer said confidently,
“If Jacob escapes, it proves he’s not willing to go to justice. If he betrays me, doesn’t that mean he’s turning himself in? He
wouldn’t be that stupid. You know, it’s not such a bad thing for me. Jacob doesn’t know that I have exposed him to Lucia, so he
must have assumed that I sent the men who took him, and then he wouldn’t dare come after me again, but Lucia...”
At this point, Spencer’s smile became obvious slowly. If Lucia had gotten word that Jacob had escaped, she will be very
disappointed.
Spencer was right. Lucia didn’t say a word for a long time after the news that the plan to capture Jacob had failed.
She thought she would soon be able to reunite with Arthur, but God didn’t want her to.
