Lincoln turned around and glanced at him. "We also found it by accident. We can't find any specific information."
It was also their first time finding out that Derick would appear in such a rich district, and it was their first time coming here.
The car continued forward before stopping on the flat road.
"It should be this villa." Lincoln got out of the car and pointed to the villa next to him.
Everleigh looked at him carefully and her heart sank. "Where is he?"
"Wait a moment."
He took out his phone and called his men. It didn't take long for two people to come out from the other side. They were all dressed in suits and ties, but the military vibe about them was obvious.
"Where is he?"
"He went in and hasn't come out yet. We are waiting for him to leave."
Lincoln heard this and turned to look at her. The only thing she could do for the time being was to wait here.
Theodore and Everleigh looked at each other. "Then, we'll just wait since we're all here." NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
If they went in rashly, it would definitely alert the enemy.
It was better to sit and wait.
Three days passed just like this. Everleigh sat on a chair eating a sandwich. She sighed, "I didn't expect that I would take up a watchman's job."
"I told you earlier to go back and rest. I'll be fine here, but you just won't listen to me," Theodore said as he gave her a bottle of water.
She raised her head and looked at him. His eyes were full of fatigue. He hadn't slept much in the past three days. Sometimes, she was really afraid that he couldn't hold on any longer.
He noticed that she was staring at him, so he asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"Do you want to take a break?"
"There's no need for that. You see, they've all stayed here for three days without saying anything. It's inappropriate for us to keep sleeping." He glanced at the three people outside, as if it was a normal routine for them.
She looked in the direction following his voice. She felt a little sorry for the fact that the dark circles under the three men's eyes were much heavier.
"Ugh... I owe Christopher such a big favor." She knew that Christopher had been helping her unconditionally from the beginning.
She was really a little embarrassed.
Theodore was silent for a moment. "Christopher is a loyal friend. Otherwise, he wouldn't have helped you all the while. I will repay the favor you owe him."
She chuckled and said, "You're still jealous, aren't you?"
"Not jealous. You're my woman. Of course, I can't let you bear all of it alone. That time when you and I had a misunderstanding, I know it was my fault."
"Let's not talk about the past anymore." She didn't want to talk about it at all. She dared not to look back and think about how she got through it.
Thinking of her life abroad, she even wanted to cry.
She didn't know how she got through it all. If it weren't for the two children supporting her, she wouldn't be able to hold on.
Seeing this, Theodore felt even more guilty. He knew how bad Everleigh's life was abroad. Every time he thought about it, he would hate himself. Why didn't he look for her? Why couldn't he let go of his own prejudice?
Before he could speak, Lincoln opened his mouth and whispered, "Miss Trevino, he's out."
Everleigh and Theodore quickly got out of the car and stood on one side, watching the situation inside the villa.
Derick had a cigarette dangling from his mouth. With stubble all over his face, he looked like a thug no matter how they looked at him.
Lincoln raised his hand high and waited for him to approach before he signaled his people to take action. The two people behind him rushed over and held Derick down.
Derick was a gangster. He had long been used to fighting, so he fought back directly. However, his moves were not enough to face these soldiers.
At the moment when he fought back, he was caught and was taken down directly.
"You're good at running, Derick," Lincoln sneered.
Derick was stunned as he looked at the person in front of him. His eyes were filled with fear.
Everleigh and Theodore walked over together and looked at the man on the ground. "Derick, stop trying to run away. I know you are hiding from Wilson."
"Who are you?" Derick knew that they were not Wilson's men from his words. Then, he became even more afraid. He knew clearly how many people had been looking for him recently.
"Don't you remember me?" Everleigh asked meaningfully, revealing her face deliberately.
He raised his head and looked at her. He was a little confused, as if he had seen her somewhere before.
"Eight years ago, Sanchez and you attacked a woman together in the alley. Don't you have any memory of it?" She said in a very light tone.
He suddenly remembered and looked at her in horror. "It's you..."
Theodore's anger grew even stronger when he looked at him. It was also because of that night that Everleigh left him and went overseas.
Now that he saw Derick, he wanted to kill him.
"We mean no harm. We just want you to do us a favor. You should know that Sanchez is dead."
"It has nothing to do with me. I didn't do it."
"I know you didn't do it, but you know who did."
Derick struggled and roared suddenly, "Let go of me!"
"What? Do you want to leave? It's going to be difficult today," Theodore shouted coldly. Just as he finished speaking, a group of people walked out from the villa and headed straight for them.
He directly held Everleigh in his arms and took a step back. Lincoln and the other two didn't mind and went straight up to fight. However, they didn't expect that those people wanted to take Derick away.
Derick was going to take advantage of this opportunity to escape. Before he could run far, his rescuers came and took him away.
They didn't hesitate at all.
The remaining people were still fighting with Lincoln. When Theodore saw this, he pulled Everleigh and ran inside the villa. No matter who the owner was, they had to meet him. When they ran in, they saw that the courtyard was filled with people. Meanwhile, Derick had already disappeared.
"Who are you? How did you get in here?" An old man standing in the middle of the room shouted in a cold and harsh voice as he was staring at both of them.
Theodore's expression didn't change as he surveyed the surroundings. When he raised his head, his eyes narrowed, and he looked at the spot above in disbelief.
Everleigh was a little confused by his look, "What's wrong with you?"
"Grandma..."
Her whole body trembled. Her gaze followed the direction of his eyes but there was no one there.
"Where?"
"I saw Grandma just now."
Everleigh pondered for a moment and said, "Theodore, are you seeing things? Grandma is long gone, plus, didn't you witness it yourself? There are many people who look alike in the world. You can't say that she's your grandma just because of this."
Theodore retracted his gaze and the shock in his eyes dimmed gradually. That was right, his grandmother was already dead. At that time, he had seen her corpse too. How could it possibly be his grandmother?
"I'm talking to you," the butler berated unhappily.
"We are looking for Derick, the person you just brought in," Everleigh said.
"Derick is one of ours. Please leave."
"Sir, you can't do this. We..." Before she could finish her words, the butler said in a cold voice, "This is not a place where you can mess around. Please get out."
