Chapter 473 How Cowardly This Was
“Find a secluded and open area to stop the car; I will meet him and see what he wants,” Angela said with a slight smile, her eyes unwavering.
After a moment’s thought, Oliver responded, “Mrs. Lawson, let me handle it instead; it’s too risky for you to go.”
Even without deeming Kaydron’s men particularly formidable, she still wouldn’t expose Angela to potential danger.
Angela didn’t insist, casually agreeing.
After all, she could probably get a clear view from inside the car.
Soon, following Angela’s direction, the driver steered towards a more isolated area, thinking that settling Kaydron quickly wouldn’t cause them to be late.
Shortly, their convoy came to a halt.
Kaydron, trailing behind, finally sensed something amiss.
He urgently inquired of his driver, “Why have we come here? Isn’t she heading to Northland Medical University?”
For this operation, Kaydron brought along three cars filled with people, not only more in number but also stronger than the last time.
He was determined to make Angela suffer extensively.
However, recalling the guards around Angela, he felt inherently timid.
Kaydron initially planned a surprise attack.
To ensure the success of this ambush, he was anxious and deviated from the original plan of acting in the suburbs as agreed with Fanny.
Although the outskirts of Northland were his domain, he preferred to keep his identity concealed this time.
Thus, he even hired outsiders for this task.
From the start, Kaydron planned to disguise himself with a hood or similar covering after capturing Angela to conceal his identity while he taught her a lesson.
“Don’t know, Mr. Reed. They’ve stopped; should we get out?” asked the driver, unaware of

Kaydron’s thoughts, and pulled over nearby.
As they talked, the opposing party had already disembarked and were approaching in an argumentative manner.
Kaydron, realizing his exposure, urgently ordered, “Drive away! They’ve spotted us and lured us here on purpose!”
The driver, puzzled, remarked, “But Mr. Reed, we’ve got three cars full of guys, much more than their two.” His point was that they significantly outnumbered Angela’s group and had no reason to fear.
Yet, recalling the capabilities of Angela’s bodyguards and his own need to remain hidden, Kaydron still urged the driver to leave.
Eventually, the driver complied with Kaydron’s instructions to drive off.
As one car moved, the others, though confused, quickly followed suit.
Before Angela’s bodyguards could close in, the three cars vanished in a flash.
“Mrs. Lawson, they ran away,” Oliver said, incredulous at the sight of the cars fleeing as if on fire, puzzled about their intentions.
Angela was equally bemused, thinking how cowardly this was.
By the time the bodyguard returned, Angela, checking the time, sighed. “Let’s just head to school.”
The delay was brief, so she wouldn’t be late.
However, Kaydron’s antics amused her greatly.
Meanwhile, Kaydron and his convoy hurried back to the casino where he had initially recruited people.
Given it was daytime, the casino was quiet, but their return still startled the manager.
Surprised by Kaydron’s quick return, the manager inquired, “Mr. Reed, back so soon? Is the job done?”
Kaydron, uneasy, replied, “Got an urgent matter. I’ll call the guys again another day.” He was reluctant to admit he fled after realizing they were spotted. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Noting Kaydron’s unease and the following glance at his men, the manager casually responded.

Without waiting for more conversation, Kaydron brought up payment. Even though the hired men hadn’t been useful, he still had to settle their fees. Despite its rundown appearance, everyone knew the casino had powerful backing beyond Kaydron’s small-time
status.
Hearing about payment, the manager’s smile became genuinely warmer, gesturing Kaydron to the payment area,
After settling the bill, Kaydron noticed the mocking glances from his hired group, feeling deeply humiliated.
The manager, having exchanged information with one of them, approached Kaydron with a smile. “Mr. Reed, remember us for future jobs like this; our guys are always ready to help you.”
Though the words sounded nice, Kaydron felt mocked, replying, “Next time, I need people who won’t get caught tailing. Find me someone who fits the bill.”
Catching the hint of blame in Kaydron’s words, the manager feigned surprise. “Mr. Reed, were you planning to kidnap, not direct attack?”
It seemed like Kaydron hadn’t been clear about his intentions from the start.
Irritated, Kaydron’s frown deepened, his displeasure evident.
The manager continued, “Who do you want to kidnap? We have a package for kidnapping people. You can take a look.” His eyes narrowed slightly, with a hint of cunning.
Kaydron asked, “Can you guarantee a successful kidnap?”
The manager confidently nodded. “Of course! But it’ll cost double today’s rate.”
Price was the least of Kaydron’s worries; he didn’t want another beating. If the casino could deliver Angela to him, even at double the cost, it would be worth it.
Initially, his aim was to use Angela/to forge a connection with the Collier Family through Fanny. But now, his grudge had deepened, eager to exact revenge on Angela for his previous humiliation.
Kaydron quickly discussed the, specific execution plan with the casino manager, paying upfront this time.
Although it pained him to part with the money, the potential benefits made it bearable.
However, he had one concern.
“Why does it have to be tomorrow? Can’t it be done today?”

He had already paid, but the manager told him that the kidnapping could only be carried out the next day. This made Kaydron suspect he might be getting scammed.
The manager provided a reasonable explanation, “Mr. Reed, you’ve already spooked the target today, making it unlikely to successfully kidnap her now. Tomorrow will be the best opportunity. Our guys have found out that Angela is going to WindMill City for a test
tomorrow.”
Kaydron was aware of Angela’s test in WindMill City; he had even planned to act tomorrow.
Today’s botched tracking, thanks to the driver’s lackluster skills, seemed to leave no choice but to wait until tomorrow.
Eventually, Kaydron conceded, “Alright, then tomorrow. Contact me tomorrow.”
