The car slid across the asphalt, the engine roared, and the atmosphere inside the vehicle remained tense. Jack sat in the front, holding the steering wheel firmly, but his eyes and thoughts kept drifting to the back seat, where Ashley lay pale and helpless. His heartbeat seemed to speed up, and the feeling of deep anxiety had never really left him since the kidnapping incident.One of Jack's security team members sat in the front passenger seat. He couldn't help but raise the question that was hanging in the silence of the car. "Sir, should we report this kidnapping to the police?"Jack turned to him, and his eyes reflected doubt. This is a serious question, and a decision that cannot be taken lightly. For a few long seconds, Jack thought about the consequences of involving the police.Finally, Jack shook his head firmly. "I'm not sure if we can trust the police in this situation. There's probably someone on the inside involved in this case. We'll handle this ourselves."The security
Jack's cell phone vibrated on the table, breaking the silence of the room with a firm ringtone. With a quick movement, Jack grabbed his cell phone and answered the call seriously. The voice on the other end was serious and authoritative, giving Jack the information he had been waiting for so long."Inspection results? Thank you for the report," said Jack in a firm tone before finally ending the call firmly.Meanwhile, Ashley, although still looking weak, gently interjected, giving Jack support, "Jack, you need to go there. I'll be fine here, don't worry about me."Jack looked at Ashley intently. "Thanks, Ash. I'll be there soon and make sure everything is in good condition."Even though his heart was still filled with worry, Jack had to leave Ashley in the treatment room. However, unbeknownst to Ashley, he ordered two members of his security team to remain there, ensuring her safety with utmost dedication and vigilance.Soon after, Jack rushed to his office. In his car, his thoughts c
The meeting started with the enthusiasm of the participants who attended virtually, serious faces filled the screen. They seemed ready to listen to arguments from both sides. However, there were doubts expressed on several faces which questioned the validity of the evidence that Jack was about to present.No words were spoken when Jack started speaking, the screen changed to a screenshot of the building test results in Green Diamond Village which was very striking. "Ladies and gentlemen, I believe that these test results are a strong indication that there is serious confusion here," Jack said firmly, his voice sounding steady through the screen.Jack carefully explained any differences in their test results compared to the Land Agency results.

In the tense virtual meeting room, Jack took a deep breath before speaking. "Ms. Torre, we are waiting for your explanation," he said, looking at Martina firmly.One of the Land Agency officials, who spoke in a firm voice, tried to curb the escalating situation. "Ms. Torre, do you have an explanation for what Mr. Ashworth has revealed?" he said, looking at Martina seriously.Martina's face grew paler when she realized that she did not have an adequate answer in the face of the concrete evidence that Jack presented. Jack then added, "If we cannot find an adequate solution in these negotiations, I will take this matter to court."The official seriously tried to reduce the tension that gripped this virtual meeting. In a firm voice, he emphasized, "We must consider the impact of all our actions here. If this story reaches the public, the Land Agency's reputation will be badly shaken.

They took turns entering the hospital, mingling with the other patients, trying not to attract attention.As Jack waited in the parking lot, his eyes kept monitoring the hospital entrance.

Jack saw the expression on Ashley's face, and it warmed his heart. He knew full well that Ashley might get hurt if she got too close, but at this moment, Jack felt confident that he could provide the necessary protection.Without thinking, Jack moved nimbly and lay down on the sofa bed he had prepared.

After the press conference ended, the atmosphere in the room was lifted by a sense of relief. Jack and Alice Thompson shook hands appreciatively. Their faces radiated satisfaction with the results they had achieved today.
