Poppy was suddenly a little uncomfortable, "He ... he and I are colleagues that share the same agent.
So we take care of each other a little bit more."
"Really? He is a popular idol, how come he doesn't send others to the examination room? Why did he
send you?" Sylvia couldn't help but banter with Poppy as well, "Risking being secretly photographed to
send you off, Tsk. That's really touching!"
"Honey, you are so moved. I always send you, how come I don't see you moved once for me too."
Franklin was a little displeased at once.
"Humph!"
Sylvia bristled.
Just then, the car stopped steadily in front of the Western restaurant, so the three got out.
They stepped right in.
Jasper had just parked the car and was about to get out and go in as well when suddenly a familiar
voice sounded behind him.
"Jasper. Why are you here too?"
Jasper's figure stiffened as he slowly turned around to see Mrs. Howlett and Geoff, who had just gotten
out of the car.
The couple was exquisitely dressed, the woman in a long dark red silk dress and the man in a suit.
"This is a restaurant, if you can come, why can't I come?"
Jasper spoke expressionlessly, with a hint of disdain in his eyes.
He was disdainful for all of Mrs. Howlett's actions back then.
Even if Mrs. Howlett was his real mother, he didn't want to have too much interaction.
There was nothing to say to her.
Bang!
Suddenly from across the road, there was a gunshot.
Immediately after everyone had not yet reacted. Several robbers with black hoods on their heads
rushed out.
The robbers rushed towards the restaurant like crazy, and more shockingly, each of them had a gun in
their hands.
Mrs. Howlett was shocked. She was wearing high heels on her feet. She had always been pampered
and never experienced such a thing. Her legs were weak and she fell into Geoff's arms.
Jasper frowned and yelled at the couple with a sharp tone, "Hurry to leave!"
But it was too late, the robbers had carried the snatched jewelry and rushed over.
Reaching out, he yanked Mrs. Howlett directly in front of her.
A black gun was aimed directly at Mrs. Howlett's temple.
He cursed and shouted at everyone present, "Don't move! Whoever moves again, I'll kill him!"
That arrogant look was particularly disgusting.
Geoff's face was white as he looked at Mrs. Howlett who was snatched from his arms by the robbers,
his voice trembling, "Please, don't hurt my wife ... you can take me as a hostage, please don't hurt her."
Mrs. Howlett's tears rolled straight out of her eyes, "Honey, you leave me alone, you go away."
Jasper glared at the two of them in exasperation, his heart pounding with annoyance.
They were so disgusting to act like a lovey-dovey couple.
However, the hostage in the hands of the robbers was his own mother.
He could not leave his mother alone. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Even if it was a stranger, he would not sit by and do nothing.
He stared at the robbers with a deadly glare, "What do you want before you let my mother go? Here
are the keys to my car, you can drive away in it. I will offer the car to you as long as you are willing to
let my mom go."
The robbers rushed out to hijack a car so they could easily escape.
They didn't expect this person to be quite understanding.
One of the robbers yelled at him viciously, "Throw the keys over here!"
Jasper shook his head, "Let her go and I'll give you the keys."
"You still dare to talk about conditions, believe it or not I will shoot her!"
The scene was deadlocked.
Sylvia and Franklin had been waiting for Jasper in the restaurant, but he didn't show up.
Suddenly another gunshot was heard.
They exchanged glances.
Sylvia's voice was clear and cold, "Someone's shooting!"
"Shooting?" Poppy blanched, "This is downtown. Why would anyone shoot?"
"Go! Go check it out!" Franklin got up and spread his long, slender legs.
Sylvia glanced at Poppy, "Don't go out, be careful with everything, and remember to hide, okay?"
Poppy hurriedly nodded, like a chicken pecking at rice.
The robbers at the entrance of the restaurant became more and more arrogant.
And some passers-by around the restaurant all crouched down under the muzzle of the robbers,
shivering and afraid to move.
For fear that the robber was not happy and killed them all.
Now they desperately regretted why they came here.
Sylvia and Franklin walked out of the restaurant together and saw the scene.
Mrs. Howlett was yanked in front of the robber, with the gun still pressed against her temple.
Her face was covered in tears, Geoff's face was ashen, and Jasper was negotiating with them.
Not far away there was the constant sound of sirens blaring.
The leader of the robbers immediately let out a roar of anger, "Damn it! Which idiot called the police!"
He was so angry that he hit Mrs. Howlett's foot so hard that Mrs. Howlett couldn't help but scream out,
"Ah! Don't kill me!"
"Scream again!" One of the robbers threw a slap directly at Mrs. Howlett's face, causing her to be dizzy
and red finger marks to appear on her face immediately.
There was blood flowing out of the corners of her lips, her hair had become disheveled, and she was in
a mess, totally unlike a noblewoman.
