Natalie's heart sank, "What happened?"
"Someone tried to kidnap your friend just now. There was a gunfight. Your friend's mother died in order to save your friend," Allen said in a low voice.
"What?" Natalie's head was buzzing and her nerves were numb. She could not believe that this was happening. In a panic, she tried to confirm again, "Did you just say that Eli's mother is dead?"
"I'm so sorry. I wasn't able to do what I had promised you. There were ten of them, all of whom were top-ranked mercenaries from abroad. My men killed nine of them, and one of them committed suicide," Allen explained.
Natalie Wheeler was silent. Her heart could not bear the burden.
How could Eli provoke these mercenaries?
How did these mercenaries know where Eli was?
The only explanation was that the news was spread from Sean Yaleman.
Natalie hung up the phone directly, her eyes red. She then called Sean.
Sean did not answer the call.
