Chapter 472 Elliot Went Missing
Aliona waved her hand and Jared was released immediately. However, he ran straight to Elliot.
“Why are you tied, Mr. Presgrave? I don’t want you to be tied by them just to save me. She’s an evil woman!” With an angry expression, Jared pointed at Aliona.
Though Elliot’s hands were clasped, he was still as unyielding as usual when he squatted down. He looked at Jared solemnly and said, “Jared, return to your mommy. I will be fine.”
“I don’t want to leave you behind, Mr. Presgrave. Let’s leave together. I don’t want to leave without you!” Jared hugged Elliot and started crying anxiously.
Elliot then used this opportunity to signal to his men and one of his bodyguards, Ricky, rushed over and grabbed Jared. Jared, on the other hand, struggled to get away, attempting to pry open Ricky’s grip and refusing to leave. Hence, Ricky had no choice but to forcibly remove him from the yacht.
Jared’s cry could still be heard in the air. “Mr. Presgrave! Mr. Presgrave…”
When Elliot heard Jared’s cries, he felt his heart ache and tears welled up in his eyes as well. Jared was akin to his own son. To him, both of them were related by blood.
That made Aliona sneer. “What an emotional father-son duo! You should know by now how you would be treated here, Elliot.”
She then ordered, “Retract the suit against my father and return him his freedom!”
A phone was handed to Elliot. At the same time, a sniper was aiming at the three people who had just left the yacht.
Elliot’s gaze dimmed when he saw that. He took the phone and called Captain Anderson. When the phone was answered, Elliot said calmly, “Captain Anderson, I want to retract my allegations against my uncle, Riley. Please release him three days later.”
“Are you sure that you want to forgo the investigation of the incident that year, Young Master Elliot?”
“Yes. My uncle is not the suspect,” Elliot replied in a serious tone.
“Fine. I’ll arrange for his release.”
“Thank you.” After hearing that, Aliona kept the phone, feeling satisfied. She then signaled to her bodyguards. “Let them off. We’ll leave right now.”
Anastasia, who was watching everything through the surveillance camera, was crying at this point. She witnessed Elliot’s sacrifice to save her son. The man now had his hands tied, and he was like a helpless beast who had succumbed to Aliona.
“Miss Tillman, your son is safe now. I will send someone to get him. Now, let us handle the rescuing of President Presgrave.”
“Elliot… Please save him!” Anastasia pleaded with Rey and the group of men with him.
“Don’t worry. We won’t let anything happen to President Presgrave.” Rey nodded. He appeared to be extra calm.
Anastasia then rested in a corner as she waited for Jared to return. However, her heart was still troubled over Elliot’s safety. She wanted both of them to be safe.
Meanwhile, Jared was already with the rescue team.
At this moment, the surveillance team reported that their tracking on Aliona’s yacht was lost. She had cunningly sailed into the waters of a country with a signal interception system, effectively blocking all of their tracking signals. Hence, under the protection of that country, she and Elliot vanished from their radar.
Rey did not expect Aliona to be this cunning too. He took his phone to a corner and dialed a series of numbers. “Hello?” On the other end of the line was a man’s cold voice.
“Sorry to disturb you, Young Master Weiss. I need your help concerning President Presgrave’s life.”
“What? Elliot endangered his own life?” The man on the other side of the phone was shocked.
“Yes. He needs your assistance now.”
“Where is he?”
“He was now kidnapped into the waters of Dansbury. We have no idea if he is still alive. Please enlist the assistance of Young Master Lloyd as well in order to save President Presgrave.”
“Just how did he get himself into such a situation?” Arthur sighed. “Give me his last tracked location.”
