Chapter 2260: Chapter 2269: Over a Dozen Missed Calls
The bodyguard showed a troubled expression on his face. Looking again at Enna Clark, he gritted his teeth and said, "Ms. Clark, Iām going to tell you something, but donāt let Young Master Lyle find out."
"Okay."
"Due to family reasons, Young Master Lyle has been continuously targeted for assassination over the past couple of years. You remember he disappeared for a while? During that time, he was ambushed by Young Master and trapped on a small island. Cut off from the outside world, he knew nothing about what was happening outside for half a month. It wasnāt until our people arrived that Young Master Lyle learned about your wedding, Ms. Clark, and despite the risks, led us in a daring escape..."
"But Young Master Lyle was seriously injured. Originally, we planned to take him to the hospital as soon as we got off the plane. However, worried that Young Masterās people would follow, we decided to hide here temporarily until Young Master Lyle recovered. Yet, Young Master Lyle went into a semi-coma due to excessive blood loss and refused to cooperate with us for wound treatment. We were at a loss, so we thought of calling you, Ms. Clark."
The bodyguard briefly explained the situation and apologized to her, "Ms. Clark, we really appreciate you coming today. Fortunately, you agreed, or else we would truly not know what to do."
He paused for a moment and added, "However, I have another request, and I hope you can agree, Ms. Clark."
"What?"
"The internal struggle within the Westbrook Family has reached a fever pitch, and Young Master has completely lost his mind, not treating Young Master Lyle as a brother at all. With Young Master Lyle injured, Iām really worried. So, can I ask you not to reveal to anyone, even to Lord, about seeing Young Master Lyle here today? Is that okay?" He seemed to realize that his request was a bit excessive, and his expression was quite uneasy.
Enna Clark hadnāt expected the situation to be so complicated. Understanding the concerns of Lyle Westbrookās bodyguard, she furrowed her brow slightly and said, "I wonāt mention it."
The bodyguard breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, Ms. Clark."
After saying that, he seemed to remember something, "Oh, Ms. Clark, I forgot to tell you that this villa has a signal jammer installed. Messages and calls donāt come through on the phone. Do you want to step outside where thereās a signal and check your phone?"
A signal jammer?
Enna Clarkās heart skipped a beat, and she quickly took out her phone to check. Sure enough, it showed no service.
She looked at the time. Nearly two hours had passed since she arrived at the villa and when Lyle Westbrook was put to sleep by the doctor with a sedative.
She immediately stood up and said to the bodyguard, "Iāll go out and check."
"Alright."
Enna Clark hurried out with her phone.
She walked all the way outside until she finally received a signal. As the signal restored, her phone immediately showed over a dozen missed calls.
The driver was also outside and approached her immediately, saying, "First Young Lady, President Lawrence called the Duke earlier to ask where you were. I gave your location to Master, and Master told President Lawrence that you were with him. If youāre done here, we should go back to find Master."
He paused, "Iām worried President Lawrence might go find Master."
If President Lawrence did go to find Master and discovered that the First Young Lady wasnāt with him, it would be hard for Master to explain.
"Okay, I understand. Letās get ready and head back."
Enna Clark knew the manās personality and realized that what the driver worried about was very likely to happen. She quickly informed Lyle Westbrookās bodyguard before getting into the car in haste...
The car sped towards the villa where Edward Jackson was staying in W Countryā
