Daddy, Mommy had been in Prison
Chapter 515 Guaranteed Danger

Eric probably wanted to play around with them and see if he managed to drag Georgia and company into the ditch, or if Georgia's group would replace Emilia first. Eric was just a mad gambler right now, and they could guess at his mentality with a bit of discussion.

After reaching the capital, everyone booked the same hotel.

Riley and Leda had already gone back to the country, though. The two of them would help, but strictly speaking, it didn't have much to do with them.

So Riley only provided personnel to assist, and Jason went back as well. He took Antonio and Riley with him.

He'd spent too much time over here, and since Robert had woken up, all he could do was let his personnel over here help out Georgia and Robert.

Meanwhile, he was responsible for what was to go on in the country. Georgia and Robert had negotiated a cooperation with Riley, but the two of them had to get Emilia back, so Jason was responsible for that matter instead. He didn't have time to go up north with them. In the end, the people who'd gone to the capital were Georgia, Robert, Ivan, Aston, and Wilson.

The five of them got out of the car, went into the hotel, and started managing the information they'd received so far.

"Eric's photo was taken in the city center of the capital. He even showed his face deliberately to have us replace him. But there's been no other news. Have you guessed at what his plan is?"

Georgia asked a worried question.

Eric's photo had been taken in the largest, busiest mall in the area, and he'd taken off his cap and shades in front of a camera to have it specifically capture his image. There had been no other photos of Eric afterwards.

Eric was luring them here and setting a trap. As for what to do afterwards, Eric was definitely going to let word out himself, and guide them along his set path.

"He might tell you personally, then lead us to a trap, and deal with all of us at once."

Wilson spoke up at the side.

"From what happened these few times, it's clear that he won't fight a battle he's not prepared for. Besides, last two times, he lost in our hands. He'll definitely use Emilia, or put her somewhere dangerous to force us to rescue her. On the way, there'll be traps to edeal with." Robert also gave his own speculation.

"So we're just going to wait around to get killed?"

Ivan asked heavily. Other than him losing control the other day, his face had been sunken all throughout the past few days.

But he'd still kept his rational mind and tried to replace Emilia.

Still, with all of them led around by the nose by Eric, Ivan couldn't possibly be happy about it, and it all weighed on his mind.

"There are other ways..."

Robert sighed and spoke.

"The Wimbledon family isn't an ironclad organization with no openings. My side's gotten in primary contact with other descendants of the family. Anyone with ambition wants to head up the family. I actually want to support someone else to sit on the position of heir, then chase Eric out or completely dismantle his forces so he doesn't have the capital to go up against us.

"But with all the years Eric's run the Wimbledon family, even if I could raise someone up and ruin his capabilities, Eric couldn't be without a secret base of his own. He'd also have his own private property in the dark, and it's impossible for us to replace it all. "More importantly, he's out to go big with us this time. I've already secretly linked up with other Wimbledons and Wimbledon stockholders to chase Eric out, but it won't help us with replaceing Emilia. It's just going to cost Eric some men and money."

Finally, everyone only came to one conclusion. That was that they had to wait for Eric to let more word out, and keep searching in the dark.

But there was a massive population to sift through. So long as someone hid from all cameras, it was easy to hide.

And up north, the area was broad, and people were comparatively scarce. A lot of places didn't have cameras, and it wasn't a simple matter looking for someone.

They stayed up north for three days. Eric didn't let any word out, and they found no clues.

Ivan was going insane. His face sank more and more day by day, and he almost never spoke at all as he led his men out there searching.

Wilson came back as usual, and spoke about an incident with Georgia.

"I caught a glimpse of Sean Poole. He moved against Elsie and me back in the country. I'd said to completely take his side down after coming here, but I've been too busy with your affairs to catch head or tail of him. He didn't come up to me actively, so that just rested there. "Today, though, while I was out hunting for leads with my men, someone actually attacked me. They weren't as skilled, though, and I took them down directly. I just so happened to see Sean Poole in a car. He sped off. It's clear that he sent the attackers. I don't know how long he's been targeting."

"Then what's your plan now?"

Georgia turned to Wilson and asked.

Sean was a festering threat, and since they'd caught wind of him, it naturally wasn't smart to let him go.

But there was just too much to deal with right now, and Georgia couldn't make a decision.

"I actually suspect that, with how clearly Eric's investigated the people beside us and how he's taken Emilia, he couldn't have overlooked me, what with me being your primary assistant.

"The enemy of an enemy as a friend. Since Sean's been active over here for so long, Eric must have turned him up. He might already be working with Eric. Do you think it's possible that these two are working together?"

"Even if they are, didn't Sean leave today? Have you found traces of him now?"

Wilson chuckled.

"I'm sending people to look through camera footage and see where Sean's appearing. If it's a place he comes up in regularly, that proves that he's more active over there, and it could mean that he lives nearby.

"Of course, if he's connected to Eric, then all the better. I want to send more people to search for Sean's whereabouts and investigate it along that route."

"All right. Do as you think you should. Robert and Ivan are already using their own men to search for Eric and Emilia, after all. If you take your own men to look for Sean, it won't affect much. We might even replace Eric by accident." That was the plan.

Wilson started devoting his own energy and personnel to replaceing Sean. Then came afternoon the day after.

Just as Wilson said he'd found Sean's range of movement, Georgia received another anonymous call.

The moment the call connected, she could already feel that it was Eric.

As expected, Eric's laughter sounded from the other end of the line.

"You really are a useless bunch. I left you this much time and even deliberately leaked my trail, and you still haven't found me yet. How are you supposed to fight me, Georgia? You couldn't even replace me, so how are you supposed to save your cousin?" Eric sniggered from the other end, and Georgia felt her whole body shake.

She suppressed her emotions and calmed herself.

"Shouldn't you be happy that we haven't found you? Tell me, what's your game making this call? You're not calling just to laugh at me, are you?"

Eric chuckled mildly.

"You're a smart one. Since you haven't found me, I'll let some word out. I'm sending an address over. You have half an hour to replace Emilia, and I won't stop you. But there's a bomb strapped to her. Whether you can save her before it blows up is up to your luck." With that, Eric hung up.

Georgia gathered everyone and gave out the address, along with what Eric had just said over the phone.

Everyone hurriedly got in their cars and drove towards the place Eric had designated. They'd brought a lot of men, but they knew that Eric had probably set up a trap.

But there was no other way. They had to go.

Even if the madman had set up traps there, he'd also really have put Emilia there and strapped a bomb to her.

They had to rescue her, even if danger was guaranteed.000
