Chapter 376 They Caught Xander
“Mr. Quincy let Thomas lure Trenton to the base.”
Albert did not agree with Noah’s decision just now but Noah kept assuring him that he had everything
under control. Besides, they were heading into the restaurant just now and had no time to go back to
the base. For that reason, Albert had no choice but to believe Noah.
However, Albert was worried now. Noah did not go back to the base after he got out of the restaurant.
“So, are you telling me that Trenton has found the kids?” Madeline bawled. She was in a panic. She
stepped on the gas pedal and the car accelerated.
“Ms. Madeline, please calm down. I believed Mr. Quincy had everything under control. I also sent some
men back to the base just now.” Albert tried to comfort her.
However, Madeline did not answer him. She kept calling Thomas and Mackenzie but none of them
picked up their phones.
In the base, Mackenzie looked up at the projector and found that the virtual Mackenzie image was
replaced with Trenton’s face.
Mackenzie had cut off all the network and power supply of the base just now. Moreover, Thomas had
also initiated the signal-blocking system. By right, Trenton couldn’t have found them.
However, it seemed that Trenton had successfully broken in and taken control of the base. The virtual
Mackenzie image had been replaced with his face. Sooner or later, he was going to locate them.
“Zeke, do you miss me?” Trenton asked and smiled happily.
Colton and Thomas had put on the invisibility cloak just now. So, Trenton could only see Mackenzie.
Mackenzie pretended to be calm as she sat upright. Although she pretended to weep, there were no
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttears falling from her eyes. She was as stubborn as Madeline.
“Zeke, you’re older. You must remember me, right? I always give you cotton candy, remember?”
Hearing that, Mackenzie thought about the past. She did not understand why people close to her
turned against each other in the end.
“Don’t worry. I’m not going to hurt you. I’m sick and need some medicine, but your mum doesn’t want to
give them to me. Can you find and give them to me secretly?”
Mackenzie glanced at Colton and Thomas. Thomas pulled down his invisibility cloak a little and
revealed his face. Then he looked at Mackenzie and shook his head.
Zeke, talk to him and buy us some time. Daddy will be back to save us soon! But what’s keeping Daddy
so long?
Thomas was getting worried. If Noah did not come to rescue them, Trenton was going to find them
soon.
“Zeke, it seems like you don’t want to see me. If that’s the case, I’m coming to look for you.”
As soon as Trenton finished his words, a loud bang was heard. The door of the basement was kicked
open.
Mackenzie panicked. She could not help shivering.
One of the doors in the basement was made of glass. Although it looked like a wall from the front,
people on the other side could see through it clearly.
So, not only Mackenzie saw Trenton, but also Cameron. He was dragging a man covered in blood
behind him.
The man was Xander…
Mackenzie gasped. She could not help but sob. She was the one who called Xander to save them. If it
weren’t for Xander, Trenton must have broken into the basement long ago.
“Damn! How could they do this to him?” Thomas was still hoping that Xander could save them. He did
not expect Trenton to have caught him instead.
Trenton must have beaten Xander up brutally.
Will he die?
Anger rose in Thomas’s heart. He strode to the console table and wanted to open the door. He wanted
to have a duel with Trenton face-to-face.
However, Colton stopped him. “We still have the last door. Trenton might not be able to break in. You
said Daddy is coming back for us. As long as Daddy is here, we’re safe.”
“But what if Daddy can’t make it back? Are we going to watch him die?” Thomas said, pushing Colton
away.
“Trenton deliberately brought your godfather here so that we would go out and surrender. We can’t fall
into his trap. We can’t go out now.” Colton grasped Thomas’s hand and would not let him go.
Just when Colton and Thomas were arguing, another loud voice was heard. The basement door
suddenly opened.
Mackenzie ran toward Xander and hugged him in tears. “Godfather…”
Xander was badly beaten and was panting heavily. He forced a smile when he saw Mackenzie. “I’m
useless. I can’t protect you…”
“No… You’re the best in my eyes. I shouldn’t have called you…” Mackenzie cried.
Trenton was getting impatient. He asked someone to pull Mackenzie away and walked into the
basement.
Glancing around, Trenton nodded and smiled. “Well, well… It’s such a secluded place. I don’t think I
could find it if you hadn’t opened the door yourself.”
“Please, I beg you. Bring my godfather to the hospital now.” Mackenzie begged and knelt on the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmground.
Hiding under the invisibility cloak, Colton and Thomas could not help clenching their fists. They were
mad, especially Thomas. He was holding a fruit knife and was ready to pounce on Trenton. However,
Colton kept pulling him back.
“Zeke, I’m sick too. I can’t even carry you now,” Trenton said.
“What medicine do you want? I don’t see any medicine here,“ Mackenzie asked and stood up in a
hurry.
“Where is Thomas? And where is Colton? Where are they?” Suddenly, Trenton asked. In fact, he had
asked his men to look for them but it was in vain.
“They left. Colton took my invisibility cloak and ran away, and Thomas went after him.” Mackenzie
sobbed and wiped her tears.
“Really? Which exit did they take? Why didn’t I see them?”
“There is a hidden door at the wall in front of us. They got out from there,” Mackenzie said, pointing at a
wall outside the basement.
Hearing that, Trenton asked two of his men to go out to check. He also followed them out to take a
look.
Mackenzie led Trenton and his men to the wall. She then pressed a rock that was protruding from the
surface of the wall a few times.
Suddenly, countless sharp arrows came flying out from all directions.
Trenton’s men were not in time to dodge and some of them were killed instantly when arrows pierced
through their throats.
Not only that, stones on both sides of the wall began to rumble and move.
Mackenzie was prepared. She squatted down and crawled beside Xander as soon as she pressed the
button on the rock.
Xander, who was about to pass out, burst into tears when he saw that.
