Heartstrings on Fire (Agnes and Jared)

Chapter 492

On the way to the Imperial Hotel, Agnes got an urgent message from Phenix.

The message said the hotel was surrounded by the FBI and she was told not to go.

Agnes’s heart started racing.

Sean wasn’t an innocent guy.

Although Agnes had always regarded him as her big brother over the years, they actually had very little

contact.

Sean rarely appeared in public, but he and Phenix were lovers.

A bad feeling hit Agnes.

Sure enough, Phenix then said, “Sean and Noc are missing, we can’t find them.””

Agnes’s mood immediately tumed gloomy.

She knew Sean was a big deal.

But she couldn’t help but worry.

Agnes knew that even facing death, Sean would do everything to protect Nocturne.

That’s what she was worried about, afraid that Nocturne would be involved in this mess, and even

more afraid that Nocturne would hold Sean back.

Meanwhile, Sean and Nocturne were trapped in the safety passage of the Imperial Hotel.

Sean knew the international cops outside were armed.

If he fought back, they could shoot him in the head.

But if he surrendered, there were certain high–ranking officials involved in this affair who definitely

wouldn’t let him fall into government hands.

He held a lot of dirty secrets of heads of state.

The ones chasing him were Interpol, but among them were also snoops and lackeys of those officials.

In the end, they’d still find a way to get rid of him.

Same difference.

If it were just him, Sean had a pretty good chance of handling it.

But now he had a kid with him.

The child had a very special identity, Albert considered him his own son.

He would protect this child at all costs.

The child had a sleep disorder.

But luckily, he was awake now.

Sean squatted down and told Nocturne, “Noc, there are a lot of people trying to catch me now, I can’t

keep you with me. In a bit, you need to take the elevator and leave, you must act like you don’t know

me, no matter what happens, just keep moving forward, okay?”

Although Nocturne was only four years old, he was very aware of everyone’s identity and background.

Nocturne asked, “Can you handle all those people by yourself?”

Sean smiled, “They can’t hurt me, don’t worry. Once you get out, find your mom as soon as possible, tell her to let Albert know, I went to the old place.”

Nocturne nodded, “Don’t worry, I got it.”

In Nocturne’s eyes was a calm and steadiness that didn’t match his age.

Even though he knew the current situation, he wasn’t panicking.

They walked from the safety passage to the corridor.

There were already many people in the corridor.

Lots of cops were lying in wait.

But at this moment, they wouldn’t openly arrest anyone.

Sean and Nocturne went in opposite directions, as if they were strangers.

Sean’s goal was to draw most of them away.

But this kid still caught some people’s attention.

After all, initially, everyone saw Sean getting out of the car with a kid.

However, they couldn’t be sure if this kid was the one they were looking for.

Nocturne calmly walked down the corridor.

And then took the elevator.

A few people followed closely, they quickly rushed up the stairs, split into several groups.

Nocturne pressed the button for the ground floor.

The elevator doors opened to the hotel lobby.

The lobby was crowded.

This was a big hotel, with guests from all over the world.

Noctume kept moving forward, he blended into the crowd.

Yet, those cops were still tailing him from the shadows.

Noctume noticed them.

He suddenly picked up the pace, after a few steps he grabbed a random man’s hand, then calmly said,

“Sir, someone’s following me, please help me get out of here.”
