Chapter 772 In Danger

“Young Master, since we’ve already found Ms. Rubes, why didn’t you approach her earlier?” Yaakov’s eyes darkened as he stared at the slender figure walking away. “Now is not the right time. Send someone to keep an eye on her.” “Yes.” Yaakov and his assistant entered the car after leaving the mall. Yaakov asked, “Have you found anything regarding the things I’ve asked to investigate?” His assistant handed him a file and said, “Ms. Rubes was adopted by the leader of Light Organization and had been working under Light Organization since then. She left after the internal conflict occurred in Light Organization.” Yaakov frowned. He lowered his head to look at the file in his hands. Ruby Luna. Her name was no longer Rubes. Yaakov’s frown deepened as his gaze fell on the marital status section on the paper. His eyes immediately turned cold. His assistant noticed the change in his master’s mood through the rearview mirror. He spoke carefully, “Young Master, Ms. Rubes must be very happy to know that you’ve been searching for her all these years.” Yaakov tossed the file aside. He no longer wanted to read further. He leaned back in his seat, closed his eyes and let out a faint sigh. She would have recognized him earlier if she still remembered him. Just like how he could still recognize her at a glance even after 18 years. Although she was not as pretty as she was now, back when they were still at the welfare institute, her clear and determined eyes still remained the same. Yaakov opened and lowered his eyes. He stared at the name “Blaine Glaceau” with hatred. Blaine Glaceau. That means Rubes was in love with this man named Blaine Glaceau? … Ruby stayed in Glacier City for two days. She suddenly felt dizzy on her way to the airport. She lifted her head and looked outside the window. She realized the car was not heading in the direction of the airport. She immediately had her guard up. She tried to lift her weak body up and stared at the driver in front. "You're not the driver from the Glaceau family. Who are you?" The driver took off his mask and laughed, "Ms. Ruby, you found out too late!" Ruby frowned and said, “Who the hell are you?” “Leader sent me here to kill you!” “Bull sh*t. If the leader really wanted to kill me, he would have done that at the mansion. You’re not working for the leader!” The leader would have killed her easily at Glacier City if he really wanted to do that. He did not have to go through all the trouble. The driver let out an evil laugh and said, “Leader was afraid that Master Blaine would find out the truth, so he sent me to secretly kill you!” Ruby laughed coldly, as she propped herself up and put a choke on the driver’s neck. “Stop the car right now!” The driver was not an ordinary person. He gripped Ruby’s hand and said, “Don’t move! You’re drugged and you don’t have the energy to fight me so you better stay still! I’ll make your death quick!” “Who the hell sent you here?” “Well, since you’re on your deathbed, I’m not afraid to expose myself. I’ll tell you the truth. A lady with the surname Nelson sent me here!” Nelson? How dare Cindy do such a thing? “When did you guys drug me?” “We drugged your breakfast in Kingswood Mansion. We sent one of our men to become your chef.” Ruby gritted her teeth and glared at him angrily. “How could you guys do that? Aren’t you guys afraid that Master Blaine will flay the skin from your bones when he comes back?” “Even if he does that, you won’t be here by then. You just need to be worry about yourself!” The car rapidly drove out of Brook Highway and headed straight to a deserted beach! Ruby passed out after the drugs started kicking in. She could faintly hear voices of people talking when they arrived at the destination. The wind was very strong and she felt cold. Two people dragged her out from the car. She heard sounds of waves hitting the reef. “Ms. Cindy, how are we going to deal with her now?” Cindy’s red lips curled into a smile as she looked at Ruby who was cornered by two killers. There was a cold and cruel look in her eyes. “Kill her and dump her body into the sea!” “Yes.” Ruby tried to open her eyes with all her might. Her blurred vision started to clear up and the image of the woman in front of her became more and more distinct. Cindy let out a faint laugh as she said, “You’re awake? Do you have any last words before you die?” Ruby sneered, “Will you pass on my message even if I have any last words?” Cindy pursed her red lips and said, “You’re a wise one. I will never help you pass on your message. Visit Blaine in his dreams if you have anything to tell him.” Not only was Ruby not afraid of facing her death, but she even mocked her, “If Master Blaine finds out that you killed me, I believe you’ll suffer even more than living in hell for your whole life.” Cindy lifted Ruby’s chin and went closer to her. She went near to her ear and said, “Don’t worry. I’ll never let Master Blaine find out this secret!” She flung her hand off Ruby’s chin after saying that. Cindy ordered the killer who was standing aside, “Make it clean!” “Yes!” Cindy drove away and left the cliff. “This lady is gorgeous. It’s such a waste to simply kill her.” His partner checked Ruby out with a look of interest. He said evilly, “I didn’t realize she’s such a beauty if you didn’t tell me!” A perverted look crept into their face. “Who wants to go first?” “Shall we do it together?” Ruby was still lying on the ground. She struggled to get up and wanted to kill the scumbags but her body was too weak. She could not move an inch. She did not mind them killing her, but if they ever violate her, she would haunt them forever! Right when the two people approached Ruby, a gunshot was heard coming from behind them. One of the killers got hit in a vital area and died on the spot. His body collapsed to the ground as his pupils dilated. “Who is it?” The other killer immediately took out his gun and turned around. However, the person’s shooting skills were superb. The bullet hit the killer’s hand which was holding the gun. “Argh!” His gun fell to the ground. The killer immediately knelt on the floor and begged for mercy, “Please let me go! I’m not the one who wants to kill her! I was asked to do this!” Donning a black trench coat, the man’s face was hidden in the dark. He pointed his gun at the bastard’s head and said coldly, “Tell your master that you’ve completed your task. Then, I’ll let you go.” The killer doubted his words but escaping was more important at that moment. He said with a trembling voice, “Alright! I won’t expose you!” Yaakov ordered his assistant to dump the dead body into the sea after the other killer fled in his car. He bent down and lifted the woman off the ground. Ruby fought to stay awake. She frowned as she looked at the man’s face half covered in a silver mask. “Who are you? Why did you save me?” Holding her in his arms, the tall man lowered his eyes and stared at her with a soft gaze. “Get yourself some sleep, Rubes.” Ruby remained silent. Rubes? That was her name 10 years ago when she was still staying at the Welfare Institute. Very few people knew about that name. Even Wilson and Thompson did not know she had that name. Who was that man? She did not have any energy left to think much and passed out completely.
