Chapter 1282 - 1282 Something Happened to Clarice!
1282 Something Happened to Clarice!
The person Jordan thought of was none other than Jiumo Kasyapa, whom he had just met.
Jiumo Kasyapa had the ability to teleport to another place in an instant. With his help, Jordan believed that capturing this group of bold and provocative mutant members would be a matter of minutes.
However, Jordan was considering whether he should go to Jiumo Kasyapa because of this.
Although Jiumo Kasyapa was very friendly to Jordan, they had only met once after all. Moreover, they had never communicated in depth.
!!
On the contrary, Jiumo Kasyapa and Mike Baylor had known each other for many years. It seemed a little unreasonable to ask Jiumo Kasyapa to help Jordan deal with Mike Baylor’s people.
“Jiumo Kasyapa is a golden mutant, but he doesn’t have much of a presence among the golden mutants. Moon Maiden and Mike Baylor each took turns controlling the Immortal Lake for 20 years. Jiumo Kasyapa has nothing to do with them. I don’t believe that Jiumo Kasyapa doesn’t have any complaints.”
Jordan also a.n.a.lyzed it from Jiumo Kasyapa’s point of view. He felt that Mike Baylor obviously looked down on Jiumo Kasyapa. They were both golden mutants, but Mike Baylor treated him like an underling.
If it were Jordan, he would definitely be unhappy.
Although Jiumo Kasyapa was an eminent monk, a Buddhist master who had taught Jordan since he was young had said that no one in this world could truly see the gains and losses of the world, including eminent monks and masters like them.
As long as this person was still alive, he would definitely be affected by this world.
Jordan believed that no matter how strong Jiumo Kasyapa’s temperament was, it was impossible for him to cultivate to the state of having a heart that was like a rock and not have any emotions.
This was also the reason why Jordan wanted to call Jiumo Kasyapa.
Victoria was right about one thing. Jordan alone would not be able to deal with three golden mutants. If there was a chance to break the relations.h.i.+p between the three of them and join forces with one of them to turn the situation into a two-on-two, Jordan would have a chance of winning!
Just as Jordan was hesitating if he should ask Jiumo Kasyapa for help, Lauren, who was pregnant, suddenly came over with a very beautiful middle-aged woman.
Jordan was stunned when he saw the beautiful middle-aged woman. He must have seen her before, but he could not remember who she was.
This woman looked to be around 40 years old, but her figure looked to be 18 years old. Her legs were straight, and her legs looked like a girl’s.
The beautiful woman looked very sad. There were still tears at the corners of her eyes. When she saw Jordan, she walked over and grabbed his hand. She said excitedly, “Jordan! Jordan! You have to save Clarice. We’re family. Clarice is your sister too!”
Upon hearing Clarice’s name, Jordan immediately remembered that the beautiful middle-aged woman in front of him was Clarice’s mother, the second wife Lauren’s father had married.
Jordan pushed her away. He did not want this woman to have too much physical contact with him. It would not be good if others saw it.
Jordan did not ask her directly. Instead, he asked Lauren, “Lauren, what happened?”
Lauren replied, “Auntie came to look for me just now and said that Clarice was on vacation when a bad person broke in through the window. She can’t contact her anymore.”
Clarice’s mother broke down emotionally. She cried and said, “I was video chatting with Clarice just now. She was bathing in the bathtub of a five-star hotel. That bathtub happened to be beside the French windows. She lived on a very high floor. I wanted to remind her to pull the curtains to avoid being secretly photographed. Who knew that two men would suddenly break through the window and enter? Then, I heard Clarice scream twice before her phone was disconnected. Sobs, Jordan, I beg you to save her. Only you can save her in this world. I’m kneeling down to you!”
Clarice’s mother knelt in front of Jordan on the spot.
Lauren quickly said, “Auntie, don’t be like this.”
Previously, Clarice and her daughter had never gotten along with Lauren. However, ever since they found out about Jordan’s ident.i.ty, their att.i.tude changed drastically. They treated Lauren’s family extremely well and no longer dared to fight with them.
Jordan was also very embarra.s.sed. Logically speaking, Lauren should call this woman her stepmother. To Jordan, she was also an elder. However, she was kneeling in front of Jordan now.
Jordan quickly reached out and grabbed Clarice’s mother’s arm. “Auntie, don’t kneel to me. It won’t be good if my father-in-law sees you like this.”
On the other hand, Clarice’s mother insisted while crying, “I won’t get up if you don’t agree to save Clarice! Jordan, Clarice and I treated you badly before. When you save Clarice, we’ll be your servants. We can serve you however we want as long as you’re willing to save her! Please!”
At this moment, Lauren’s father and mother, Stefan and Marissa, rushed over after hearing the news. They were shocked to see Clarice’s mother kneeling in front of Jordan and begging.
Jordan was embarra.s.sed when he saw his in-laws.
Unexpectedly, Clarice’s mother pulled Stefan and said, “Hubby, kneel down to Jordan too and beg him to save our daughter.”
Stefan was embarra.s.sed. Marissa walked forward and held Jordan’s hand. She said, “Son-in-law, Clarice is Lauren’s sister. We’re all family. Please help her.”
Although Jordan’s current status was far from what the family could compare to, Stefan and Marissa were his in-laws after all. Jordan respected them very much and would definitely not let them beg him shamelessly.
Therefore, Jordan helped Clarice’s mother up forcefully on the spot. “Auntie, don’t worry. Clarice will be fine. I’ll send someone to save her now. Tell me which hotel she’s in.”
Initially, Jordan was still hesitating if he should ask Jiumo Kasyapa for help. However, now that something had happened to Jordan’s wife’s family, it seemed that it was also the work of the mutants. Jordan had no choice but to make this call.
If Clarice was insulted by the mutants, Jordan would lose his face too.
Clarice’s mother wiped her tears. “Hyatt Hotel!”
Jordan patted Clarice’s mother’s shoulder and comforted her, “Alright, I’ll send someone over now. Don’t worry, there’s still time!”
Clarice had a good mother. When her daughter was in trouble, she knew to come to Jordan for help immediately. She was right. In this world, only Jordan could help her now.
Before Jordan knew Jiumo Kasyapa, even Jordan would not have been able to help.
Walking to the side, Jordan called Jiumo Kasyapa.
After two rings, Jiumo Kasyapa picked up the phone. “Deity Jordan! I’m very happy to receive your call. I wonder how Deity Jordan is doing?”
Jordan said politely, “Master Jiumo, I’m fine. It’s an emergency, so I’ll say it directly. My wife’s sister was taking a shower in the Hyatt Hotel when someone from the Mutant Tribe broke in through the window. If I am a little later, I’m afraid she will be killed. I wonder if Master Jiumo will be able to get there immediately to save my sister-in-law?”
