Unrivalled God of War

Chapter 145

Soon, they arrived at the Smith family mansion in their Jeep.

Everyone there was still awake.

There was no way they could fall asleep after knowing that Samuel Smith had been kidnapped.

However, they didn’t dare to call the police in case the kidnappers killed him.

They were left with no choice but to stay up and fret about it.

“Uncle is back!”

Paul Smith’s son Peter Smith came running back from the outside, hollering happily.

Sean Smith’s face lit up at the sound of that. The whole family got up to meet Samuel Smith at the door.

Samuel Smith was standing just outside the living room with Nathan Cross and Penny Smith, looking worse for wear.

Sean Smith was overjoyed to see Samuel Smith return safely. “Oh, my dear son, welcome back. You have scared me out of my wits!”

Samuel Smith was relieved as well. “Man, I almost died today!”

Suddenly, Penny Smith called out from behind them. “Grandpa!”

Sean Smith’s gaze immediately turned cold. “You bastards! How dare you kidnap your uncle?”

“If I didn’t threaten you, what would you have done?”

“And you dare to come and meet me? Someone chase them out now!”

Seeing this, Samuel Smith decided to put his ego aside and intervene. “Dad, this has nothing to do with Nathan and Penny.”

Sean Smith furrowed his brows. “Really?”

“That’s right. Nathan commanded a group of soldiers to take down the kidnappers. He saved me.”

Everyone widened their eyes to look at Nathan Cross. He could command the military?

“Actually, he didn’t command anyone. Nathan just asked for backup from the military to help save Uncle,” Penny Smith added.

No wonder!

There was no way a jobless guy like Nathan Cross could command soldiers from the military at his will!

They knew that there were troops stationed in Channing for an anti-terrorism mission.

From the Nine Tattoo Dragon to Gabriel Logan, the troops cleaned up every troublemaker that they came across.

Samuel Smith’s kidnappers were too much for Nathan Cross to handle on his own, so he sent a distress signal to the troops to help him out.

The Smiths refused to believe that Nathan Cross was more powerful than they thought, instead they gave the credit to the ongoing crackdown.

Nathan Cross and Penny Smith noticed the lack of enthusiasm from them and decided not to push it.

After all, Samuel Smith had been rescued, and the proof that they were not involved in the kidnapping was solid as stone.

They left soon after.

Sean Smith called Samuel and Paul to his study room to ask them about what happened.

Samuel Smith told him everything from start to end, not daring to miss out even the tiniest detail.

“So it’s the Zabinskis!” Sean Smith finally said after a long while as worry etched into his face.

“Mr. Zabinski believes that we are to blame for Mr. Jerry’s predicament,” Samuel Smith said bitterly.

“That’s outrageous! Didn’t we just agree to give them one of our subsidiaries as a token of apology yesterday? Who knew they would be so ungrateful?” Sean Smith exclaimed.

“Dad, Big Bro, the Zabinskis are part of the Southern Four with a lot of influence over this part of the country. What are we going to do if they decide to come after us?

Samuel Smith’s expression shifted several times before he finally growled, “Looking at the current situation, I guess we have no choice but to find a scapegoat.”
