Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories

“Little Brother, thanks for all these coincidences.”

Wesley’s phone suddenly rang… He picked up the call and frowned slightly. “What are you doing? Release that man. Our brother is back now. Why did you still capture him?”

…

“What?”

Wesley’s voice became cold. “Don’t touch him. Wait a few minutes for me.”

Jack narrowed his eyes. “What’s wrong?”

“That fool, Lehman, captured Shan Ning,” said Wesley.. Lehman Anderson was a young lad from the Anderson family’s side branch. He was younger than Wesley by two years and became a soldier at sixteen. While he did not have legend-worthy experiences like Wesley and Jack, he was a passionate young man.

In the side family, there was only this brother who had a good relationship with them.

Jack would always look out for him regardless of what he did.

“Why did he capture Shan Ning?”

“Listening to Lehman’s intentions, Shan Ning had something to do with Mu Yuan being captured. Your money was not taken by Shadow. Rumors had it was shared amongst the people in the small town. He must have hated them. Lehman trusted Shadow’s divisive words and captured Shan Ning, wanting to get your money back for you.”

“Nonsense!” Jack stood up immediately and slammed the table furiously. “Tell him to release that man. Exchanging the sum of money for Mu Yuan’s life is worth it. Who allowed him to make such decisions on his own?”

Wesley narrowed his eyes. “What if the entire thing was planned by Shan Ning?”

“I don’t care who planned it. Now that he is safe, everything is fine. Shan Ning would not hurt…” Jack paused in the middle of his sentence. Wesley’s gaze was like a laser scanning deep into his bone marrows.

He paused, flustered.

Wesley said, “You and this Major…”

“Call Lehman and tell him to release that man,” said Jack.

“Got it.”

Wesley called Lehman and told him to release the man. After Lehman hung up on the call, he stopped the car at the desert margins.

He had already split the team up into two. One team would return to the base first while he and another agent held Shan Ning in captivity, planning to teach him a lesson.

Lehman kicked Shan Ning down and stepped onto his chest. “Who are you to dare to cheat my brother? From the start, this was a trap that you devised. You wanted to collaborate with Morgan and let Mu Yuan be captured on purpose to kill my brother. This was a good plan.”

Lehman snatched over an M4 rifle and slammed it against his chest. Shan Ning could not get up. His eyes flashed, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. “What are you talking about? I don’t understand.”

“You don’t understand?” Lehman was infuriated. “The middle-man that you used to contact Morgan is my man. You thought that your plan was flawless, but there are no perfect plans in the world. Morgan is a big fool. If you did not guide him, how would he know to capture Mu Yuan in order to threaten my brother? You are indeed cruel.”

Shan Ning spat. “You are accusing me.”

“I’m accusing you? Haha. Wait till Major Mu Yuan arrives, then I’ll call my brother over. We will have a face-off then.” Lehman’s gaze was menacing. “You must be impatient for death to have the audacity to trick the Anderson family!”

Lehman kicked him violently. Shan Ning’s organs were hurting painfully.

An agent stood out. “Captain, Major Anderson already told you to release him. Let it go, we won’t be petty with him.”

Lehman glanced at him with disdain before kicking him violently again!!!
