Chapter 74
He finally understood what Marco meant when he said that his boss had fallen.
However, he was quite happy to see the change in his boss.
Although he had only known Alexandra for a day, he felt that she was a good girl..
Although she was not from a prestigious family, as long as his boss liked her, nothing else mattered.
It was fine as long as the boss liked it and he was happy.
Frank silently increased the temperature of the car’s air conditioner.
After driving for more than half an hour, they arrived at the county road. They were only a few miles away from the highway.
However, the area near the entrance of the highway was a combination of rural and urban fields, and it was sparsely populated.
Julian quickly felt a threat from deep inside. Frank, who was sitting in the front seat, also frowned.
Frank said, “Boss, they showed up.”
Julian was not surprised. He knew that ever since a series of major changes happened three years ago, those people had never stopped.
He knew that there had been people around him for the past few years. It was those people who had harmed his father.
In the past few years, he had been pursuing the clues from back then. He knew that those people had yet to disappear.
They were still watching his every single move.
Sometimes, he wondered if the disappearance of Ace had something to do with them.
Now that they had found the clues before Ace disappeared, those people should not be able to hold back anymore.
Julian said, “Do we have enough manpower?”
“Pretty much.”
“Drive to the highway. Don’t worry about it.”
“Yes.”
Frank’s expression turned serious, and there was a hint of ruthlessness between his brows.
At the same time, he pressed a button in the car. A black screen slowly descended from the front passenger seat. It was bulletproof.
It protected Jacob from top to bottom.
He reached out with one hand and took out a pistol from the compartment next to him.
He handed it to Julian directly. “Boss, take it.”
Julian took over the pistol. Frank took out another one from the compartment.
Julian looked down at Alexandra, who was sleeping soundly in his

suddenly very worried.
He was worried that he could not protect her well. He had been useless. After searching for so long, he could not find Ace. That was why she came here herself.
She was innocent and was forced to follow him through all this.
The cars behind chased after relentlessly. The ones in the front were pressuring the ones behind them.
Needless to say, they were the people who escorted Julian.
Alexandra woke up from her sleep when she heard the sound of a gunshot.
Her body jerked, and then she opened her eyes.
At this moment, she realized that she was hugging Julian and lying in his arms.

She didn’t even have the time to blush.
Suddenly, she felt a weight on her body. Julian brought her down.
Then, there was the crisp sound of the car window being hit by bullets.
Alexandra lay on Julian’s lap. Julian bent down to dodge and protected her under his body.
Alexandra had no idea what had happened during her nap.
She was a little flustered.
Julian hugged her and said anxiously, “Don’t be afraid. Lie down and don’t move.”
Frank’s car made a sharp tum and was forced to stop in the ditch by a black car that suddenly drove out of the darkness.
The car shook heavily, and Alexandra was instantly terrified by the situation.
“What happened?” she asked in a trembling voice.
“It’s okay, don’t be afraid. Lie down, I won’t let anything happen to you.”
Before he could finish speaking, there was the sound of brakes screeching and more gunshots coming from outside.
The gunshots overshadowed Alexandra’s panic and Julian’s comfort.
Frank shouted at the back, “Boss, stay in the car and don’t move.”
“You don’t move either!” Julian ordered.
“I have to fight with my buddies!”
Then, he got out of the car with the pistol and locked the door.
This SUV was Julian’s birthday gift to Frank last year. After Frank’s modification, it was covered in bulletproof equipment.
Therefore, the windows were not damaged at all even though bullets hit the car and windows from time to time.
It was already chaotic outside.
Gunshots, fighting, and wails followed one after another.
Julian held the pistol tightly and observed the movements outside the window through the window.
The more he observed, the tenser he felt.
The people sent by Marco were all experts, but the other party was not inferior. They were almost evenly matched in the fight.
Moreover, the other party had an advantage in numbers.
He wasn’t sure if the other party was here for Jacob or him.
Frank was one of the best fighters in the Ranford family. He could break someone’s arm and snatch their weapon in a few moves.
But soon, he could not hold on any longer.
Julian watched as he was ambushed by the people behind him and almost lost his ability to fight.
Julian couldn’t sit still anymore. He opened the door handle, turned his head, and said to Alexandra, “Stay in the car. Don’t come out no matter what.”
Alexandra raised her head and grabbed him instinctively. “Julian, don’t go out! It’s dangerous!”
His eyes were surprisingly bright.
Julian said, “Don’t worry. My buddies and family members are outside. Stay here and don’t move. Someone will come and save you.”
With that, he pried Alexandra’s hand away and got out of the car with his pistol.
As soon as the car door closed, tears streamed down Alexandra’s face.
She pounced on the car window. For a moment, she could not locate Julian at all.
Chapter 74
Everyone was hidden in the night in the wilderness, and the chaos intertwined.
But soon, she found a tall and heroic figure among the figures.
His hands and feet were swift and decisive, and his figure was agile. It was as if life and death were a small matter in his hands.
This was the first time she had seen him so ferocious!
Alexandra stared at the unfamiliar yet familiar figure. Her heart ached.
She did not have time to think about what had happened. She only hoped that Julian, Frank, and their buddies would not die. They could be injured, but they had to live.
Julian, don’t get hurt!
However, things did not go as Alexandra had expected because she realized that more people were joining the chaotic fight.
Julian no longer had any advantage.
Frank also discovered this fact. During the fight, he moved to Julian’s side. “Boss! Drive quickly and take Mistress Alexandra and Jacob away! Our reinforcements will only arrive later. If this continues, we won’t be able to leave!”
Julian dislocated a person’s wrist and snatched the other party’s pistol away. He said, “If I leave, all of you will die!”
“Boss!”
“Cut the crap! Watch your back!”
Julian shot quickly, and the gunfire pierced through the wrist of the man who attacked Frank from behind.
Alexandra was trembling in the car.
Suddenly, she realized that Julian had become the main target of the battle.
Although many people had their guns unloaded or had used up all their bullets, a few burly men surrounded Julian.
How could Julian fight so many people alone after fighting for so long?
The other party seemed to have done it on purpose. Some of them trapped Frank, while others trapped Julian so that they could not fight together.
As for the others, they were basically out of bullets. The enemy was almost completely wiped out.
Alexandra stared at Julian’s figure and saw that he was getting more and more powerless.
The worst thing happened. After Julian raised his pistol, there seemed to be no more bullets!
