Sean also stood up and held her hand, comforting her softly, Don't worry. I ll take you there now."
Then he took Molly to the makeshift ward, where they met Jadon.
The old man sat leaning against the head of the bed, his eyes closed, resting.
Sensing someone approaching, he opened his eyes warily, but when he saw Molly and Sean, the alert in his eyes slowly dissipated.
"Sir..."
Seeing the bandages around the old man's head and the numerous scratches on his face, Molly's eyes instantly turned red, and her voice choked up.
She couldn't imagine what he had gone through, and felt guilty beyond measure.
If she had stopped him from entering the base, he wouldn't have been wounded.
Jadon gave her a reassuring smile and said, ’’Silly girl, I'm fine. I'm just slightly wounded, not serious.”
Molly, still worried, checked on him herself. Only when she was sure he was slightly wounded was she truly relaxed.
"What exactly happened, sir?” she asked after calming herself down.
Jadon remained silent for a few seconds before slowly saying, "After the base riot, I wanted to take an opportunity to escape, but then I noticed some strange movements in the base. Then I wanted to stay
and find out what was going on."
Molly knitted her thin brows and said, "Sir, you shouldn't have done that. It was too dangerous. If something had happened, how could I explain it to Mrs. Scott?"
Tm fine, am I not?" Jadon helplessly laughed, "Let me finish what I have to say, okay?"
Molly bit her lips and simply said, "Okay."
Jadon continued, "I never expected to find something unbelievable. The base was organizing a retreat.1'
Then he looked at Sean. "Not only that, Ward also planned to destroy the whole island. They no longer care about anyone's life."
Sean became serious and pressed, "What do you mean by that, Mr. Scott?"
”1 guess you know that the base has developed many harmful drugs over the years," Jadon looked at him and then at Molly.
"Yes, we do.” Molly nodded.
"But what you don't know is that there are many harmful
substances that need to be dealt with, and in the underground level of the base, there is an area that no one has set foot in."
No one has set foot in?" Molly's brows furrowed even tighter. ’ This sounds like a bad omen."
"Your intuition is correct." Jadon turned grave. "A large amount of harmful drugs are stored there. I overheard Ward saying he was going to blow up the base.”
Molly was astonished. "Blow up the base? Is he crazy? There are many people on the island!"
When Jadon finished speaking, everyone present turned grim. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
They never expected the Martial Art Union to be so heartless, not even sparing ordinary people.
If the base was truly exploded, no one knew what would happen.
Molly didn't dare to think about it.
Jadon sighed heavily and said with a wry smile, "I'm already old, and I don't have many good years left anyway, so it doesn't matter to me. But..."
Then he looked at Molly. "You guys are still young. If possible, leave this place as soon as possible. But... when you are home, take good care of my wife for me."
