The Vengeful Son-in-law

Not long after, Thorn came back from the Fourth Group and didn't look well.

Pence immediately had a bad feeling and quickly asked, "How's it going? Have you contacted Tom?" Thorn sighed and said, "No."

"What?" Pence said with a frown, "As an instructor of the Military Intelligence 3, and at this critical juncture when the Colorful Fruit of Essence is about to produce, how can he go missing?!"

He spoke with a little anger. One who worked for the Military Intelligence 3 would be considered as the servant of the country, no longer an ordinary citizen who could fool around. The phone must be kept on all the time.

Thorn said, "Actually, Tom's phone was turned off a week ago.”

Pence frowned even more. "This Colorful Fruit of Essence is about to mature. This is the top priority. Tom is missing at this time. Is he trying to disobey our order?"

The word “disobedience” was overwhelming for an organization like the Military Intelligence 3. It would take to court!

Since Tom was recruited by him, Thorn quickly explained, "I've known Tom for a long time. He definitely won't disobey orders! I think he might be in seclusion, right?”

"In seclusion?” When Pence heard this, his face looked much better. Obviously, he thought so too. After a while, Pence said, "Keep trying to contact Tom and tell him about Redford's revenge, so that he can be on his guard. Redford is petty and a man of great cultivation. Tom killed Redford's brother-in-law, and he will definitely not give up his revenge.”

Thorn nodded, and there was gloominess on his face. There was no other way. Redford was too strong, and he had too many senior disciples. Tom was not a match for Redford.

He sighed heavily and said, “Tom, why did he kill Redford's brother-in-law? This grudge is not easy to make even!"

Pence's face also flashed across some sadness. It was not easy for the Military Intelligence 3 to recruit such a genius, and there was hope that he could bring the Military Intelligence 3 to rebuild its glory. In the end, it was not long before he provoked Redford.

In his opinion, Tom was still too reckless. Even though he had reached the fourth stage of the Innate Realm, he was a young man in essence, impulsive and aggressive, and did not consider the consequences.

As for Redford, after he left the Military Intelligence 3, his face had been grim.

Next to him, a master of the second stage of the Innate Realm said, "Instructor, we just let Tom go that easily?"

Redford stopped and suddenly punched down a banyan tree more than half a meter in diameter. He snorted heavily, "Let him go? That's not gonna happen! He killed Beckett and must pay for that." The expert said, "Just now, Pence's attitude was clear. He was determined to protect this Tom. If he had been hiding in the Military Intelligence 3, it would be difficult to make a move.”

Redford's big eyes rolled a few times and said coldly, "He can't hide that long. In another week, the Colorful Fruit of Essence will be mature. When the time comes, he will definitely participate. I have plenty of ways to deal with him!"

Thinking of this, Redford felt his ideas more and more feasible. A cruel smile appeared on his face. "Hmph, Pence, do you think you can protect this Tom on your own? At that time, I will personally kill this son of bitch in front of you and avenge my brother-in-law!"

His heart ached at the mention of his brother-in-law.

Although Beckett was his brother-in-law, he had been with him for many years and had a good relationship, which was similar to his own brother. Now that Beckett was killed and his wife was crying all day, how could he let Tom go? Even if Tom was the new instructor of the Military Intelligence 3, he would kill Tom. This was non-negotiable!

Although the Military Intelligence 3 and the Military Intelligence 2 were nominally equal, in fact, the strength was too weak to be on the same level as the Military Intelligence 2, so Redford didn't have to save Pence's face at all.

A week passed in a blink of an eye.

During this week, Tom never showed up. It was as if he had disappeared from the world. His phone had been turned off and he could not be reached at all.

According to the schedule, there was only one day left before the Colorful Fruit of Essence matured. The Military Intelligence 3 was in a hurry.

Besides the Military Intelligence 3, Elliot was also in a hurry.

In fact, he had been very uneasy for the past half month. The task that Tom had given him was too important. He put down most of his work because he was afraid of delaying Tom's instructions. Later, he found out that Tom was in seclusion and didn't bring anything with him. He had a hard time every day. Several times, he almost couldn't help but open the door for Tom in advance!

In his opinion, a normal person would not be able to hold on for two days without food or water, let alone eleven days!

Moreover, it was an absolutely enclosed space, which meant that the air inside was limited, and after Tom had been in seclusion for so long, Elliot was really afraid that Tom would die there.

He wanted to open the door earlier to check how Tom was doing. Was he still alive?

If Tom was really dead, then he would be doomed too, because all his connections and power today came from Tom. If he died, not only Elliot's career would be ruined, but his life was in danger for he had so many enemies.

Because of the expansion of the company during this period of time, he offended numerous people, but because he had Tom's strong backing, those enemies did not dare to make it difficult for him.

It was no exaggeration to say that his fate was already tied to Tom's!

"Elliot? What's wrong with you? You look so pale and sweaty. Have you been messing around these days and your body couldn't hold on?"

Malcolm walked over and saw Elliot's pale face and restless expression. He patted Elliot on the shoulder with a smile and said jokingly, but unexpectedly, his pat directly knocked Elliot to the ground and startled him.

"Elliot? Are you okay?!" Malcolm immediately helped Elliot up.

Elliot was nervous. He kept looking at the clock on the wall, pinching the time to open the door for Tom on time. He was almost scared out of his wits by Malcolm's pat. He trembled all over and saw it was Malcolm. He cursed, "Malcolm, you're scaring me to death!"

When Malcolm saw him like this, he immediately realized something was wrong and asked in a low voice, "What happened?”

Elliot swallowed and said, "Mr. Howard..."

Malcolm screamed. "What? Mr. Howard? Did something happen to him?!"

"No, shut up! Who told you that something happened to Mr. Howard?! It's like this..." Elliot looked at the appointed time Tom set. There was less than an hour left. He told Malcolm about it.

After Malcolm heard this, his face was full of shock. He said suddenly, "Damn! Eleven days! Mr. Howard is out of his mind, but you dared to hear him! Open the door for him quickly. If something happens, we will be dead!"

Elliot shivered and ran over to open the door for Tom...
