novelTransporting James Doha
| ← Ch.636 | Ch.638 → |
It took Matt a few days to prepare everything for them. The most important phase of this matter was taking James away from the Ryukalin Clan. For this matter alone, he prepared numerous cars with several guards ready.
"I wonder how he manages to find so many experts, " Patrick rubbed his hand together."I should have coerced him to hand them over to the Ryukalin Clan."
"Elder Patrick, I don't think it's a good idea, " Neo frowned. From what he knew, they were all coming from outside this city. Trying to make them protect the Ryukalin Clan wouldn't be easy. Besides, they were starting to run out of the funds from the numerous battles that they had to do.
"You should try it, " Kevin agreed.
Neo: "..." Boss, please review our funding again!
Kanae shook her head slightly. She glanced at Taro."Do you want to come and watch as your nephew departs?"
Taro shook his head. He loved his nephew and wished the best for the brat, but he couldn't watch James departed. If he did, he knew that he wouldn't be able to let his nephew go. It would be better for him to say his goodbyes in this place.
"I want to check on my brother, so I think it's better for me to stay away from him, " Taro replied.
Kanae peeked behind Taro, she had seen the cases that Taro prepared beforehand. After he had finished sending off James, Taro planned to stay in the hospital until Charlie woke up. At the same time, he would try to find work in order to gain enough funding to build his family back.
James walked out with his backpack. His eyes shone when he saw the large limousine prepared for him.
"That's amazing!" he exclaimed.
Patrick snorted."It's just a little rundown car. Why are you so excited about them?"
"Father, are you in a bad mood again?"
"I'm not."
"I feel that you're in a bad mood, " Kanae replied with a wry smile. She could sense the dark aura that her father emanated. It seemed that Patrick hated James to the bone.
On the contrary, Patrick didn't even bother to reply. He snorted and turned his head away. Because Kevin didn't want to contact Matt, he was the one who had to prepare everything for this brat. For someone who only loved martial art and fighting, those days filled with papers were nothing but torture.
He felt extremely glad when everything was over. After he sent James off, he would be able to rest and focused his attention back to the martial arts that he loved. That was the biggest reward that he could imagine getting.
"Are you alright, Senior Pat?" Matt asked wryly. He had the feeling that his senior wanted nothing but punching him.
"I'm fine. You should just go with that brat already, " Patrick waved his hand like ordering the man.
Matt shook his head."I won't be coming in the same car with James. My ability is not enough to protect him."
"Don't tell me that you want me to come along? I don't like children, " Patrick cringed at the thought of accompanying the brat for hours. Right now, he truly didn't want to see the boy's face at all.
"Of course not. I have prepared bodyguards for him."
Standing behind Matt were several bulky men. They were standing while emanating dark and dangerous aura. It was as if they wanted to tell everyone that they were great.
Patrick snorted. These people's strength couldn't be compared with him in the slightest. Granted, they were stronger than Matt, but he wouldn't lose in strength compared with these men.
"Are you sure they can do their job properly?"
"At least, they'll be better than me, " Matt shrugged. He walked towards James, who was standing near Kanae."James Doha? Are you ready?"
James raised his head to look at the guard. Although he knew that they meant no harm to him, he still didn't like the sight of them. His right hand moved up and clenched Kanae's hem clothes tightly.
"James?" Kanae was surprised.
James raised his head."Sister Kanae, can you accompany me?"
Hearing his question, Kanae was stunned. She glanced back and saw Kevin's dark face. She knew that he didn't like her staying only with James, but it seemed that this situation required that.
"These uncles are kind, James. They won't hurt you."
"I know, " James replied seriously."But I don't feel comfortable around strangers, so I want you to accompany me, Sister Kanae."
"I..." Kanae was at lost about what she was going to do. She knew that Kevin wouldn't like it if she agreed with the brat's request. At the same time, she wanted to agree when she saw his cute face.
On the back, Kevin was trying his best to calm down. Seeing James act so coquettishly with Kanae made him want nothing more than kicking the boy's out. However, he knew that the strength of these guards could never match up with Kanae.
"Uncle, where's Dean?"
"He's arranging his group, " Patrick replied.
Kevin nodded his head. He thought for a moment as he said."You should come with her too, Uncle."
"What? You want me to come along that brat?"
"You can stay in the same car with Matt while Kanae in the same car with James. Remember to protect them."
"If I go, who will protect you?" Patrick chided. Lou was guarding Charlie because they were not sure if the government planned on attacking the man again. If he went too, Kevin would be alone.
Kevin glanced back."Protect Kanae, Uncle."
"You two lovebirds, " Patrick rubbed his forehead."Fine, I'll go."
Kanae heard their conversation and agreed to James's request. The boy cheered up instantly and walked to the limousine with Kanae behind him. Not far from them, Patrick also got into the car with Matt.
As the car moved, Matt glanced at Patrick with raised eyebrows."I thought that you didn't want to come."
"My nephew wants me to protect Kanae, " Patrick shrugged.
Matt's eyes widened."Given her ability, is there any need to worry about her safety?"
If Patrick said that the guards were not strong enough, he would believe that. After all, those people outside this city didn't have supernatural powers or talent that exceeded the certain limit. However, when Patrick said Kanae, he was rather surprised.
"They're two lovebirds, so I'm not that surprised, " Patrick shrugged."Besides, she's also an awakened as you have known."
Matt nodded his head. He thought about his conversation with Master Rudy previously. Master Rudy had specifically told him a lot of things regarding Kanae which made him did his own research. He had found out that the government once chased after Kanae when she was known to receive the golden letter.
The thought made him frown. Would they chase after Kanae again when she has awakened her talent?
It shouldn't be possible for them to control her when she was already at this age...
Right?
Matt erased the thought as he focused on the road. Even though he knew the government in this city has some dark history, he wanted to believe that they couldn't control people.
If they could....
Matt shuddered.
"What is it?" Patrick noticed his friend suddenly shuddered. The car was not even that cold.
"It's nothing."
In the other car, James was happy that Kanae decided to come with him. He gazed outside the car's window excitedly.
"Sister Kanae, there are a lot of different kinds of building over here."
"We have gone out of the central areas, " Kanae replied with a smile."There will be much more varieties in this part."
"That's so cool!"
Kanae laughed as she watched James point them out excitedly. Her heart was filled with warmth as she gazed at the boy. However, her sharp sense suddenly told her that there was something wrong.
Her body tensed up as she looked out of the window. It shook her when she saw the torpedo aiming at their car.
"Step on the brake!" She yelled abruptly.
