Free Web NovelChapter 2165: Chapter 2068: Email
Not only the doctor, but even Windsor Reed’s gaze was fixed on the medicinal powder in Huo Sining’s hand.
Huo Sining certainly knew what these people were thinking, but she didn’t care at all. After all, the medicinal powder in this bottle was just ordinary herbal powder and had no hemostatic effect. It was just a decoy; the real effect came from her Spirit of Azure Pearl, something that no one could steal.
Unlike the doctor and Windsor Reed, the miners weren’t interested in the powder in Huo Sining’s hand. Their concern was for the safety of their companions.
Seeing the condition of Morris and Rebu improving, the miners were instantly filled with excitement and couldn’t help but cheer.
Captain Matthew was also deeply grateful to Huo Sining, repeatedly thanking her.
Huo Sining quickly said, "Captain Matthew, don’t rush to thank me. This medicine was given by the boss in exchange for a reward. If you really want to thank someone, you should thank Mr. Windsor. He sacrificed a lot to save others. Additionally, although the bleeding for Morris and the others has stopped, they are not out of danger. They need advanced hospital equipment for surgery due to internal injuries that my powder has no resolution for."
With Huo Sining’s reminder, the captain suddenly realized he had been overly optimistic and hurriedly instructed the doctors to get them to a hospital.
The leading doctor was obviously hesitant. Even after ordering the other doctors to get the three to the car, he kept glancing over at Huo Sining, clearly wanting to inquire about the medicinal powder.
But with Matthew urging them, the doctor couldn’t openly ask Huo Sining for the powder in front of everyone and had to give up for the time being.
However, as he left, the doctor cast a glance at Huo Sining that was filled with a greed and darkness that wasn’t there before.
Huo Sining’s intuition was sharp, and she certainly noticed the change in the doctor’s gaze, but she pretended not to see it.
She understood the doctor’s thoughts to some extent. She had encountered similar situations back in the Imperial Capital.
Nevertheless, she wasn’t worried. Even if the doctor had some ideas, Huo Sining was not afraid. Not only did she have her methods, but even if the doctor were to steal the powder, he wouldn’t be able to figure anything out; it would be like drawing water with a bamboo basket.
Once the three injured were taken away, the focus naturally shifted to the missing Windsor Caesar.
Windsor Reed and another person kept dialing Windsor Caesar’s phone, but received no response. Meanwhile, the miners began searching everywhere, but after more than half an hour, they still couldn’t find him.
By this time, Huo Sining knew there was a high chance the Emperor had fallen into the hands of drug dealers. She recalled carefully what Andra had said earlier, suddenly inspired, and looked over at Andra, asking,
"Andra, you said earlier that Windsor Caesar separated from you because someone told him there was an urgent email waiting for him, so he temporarily came out of the mine?"
Andra nodded, and Huo Sining’s eyes lit up instantly, quickly asking, "Who told him about the urgent email?"
"It was me!"
The miner who said he shared a dormitory with Windsor Caesar stepped forward. "Since Caesar came to the mining side, he’s been staying with me, and his laptop was on the dormitory desk. I heard the email notification, and it had the word ’urgent’ on it, so I passed the message to the mine. But after sending the message, Caesar didn’t come back. I thought he didn’t find the email important, so I didn’t urge him further."
Huo Sining couldn’t help but furrow her brow and turned to Windsor Reed beside her,
"Who sent this email, let’s check it first!"
Windsor Reed nodded, and Matthew led the way, guiding Huo Sining and Windsor Reed to Windsor Caesar’s dormitory.
Seeing the laptop, Windsor Reed immediately and adeptly opened his son’s computer, spending some effort to find the email. But upon opening it, his expression changed instantly.
Huo Sining also saw the email, her heart sinking as she silently thought, "As expected."
The email was not an urgent one but a threatening letter from kidnappers.
The email contained only a few words, but it was evident that the other party had come prepared, having thoroughly investigated the identities of Windsor Reed and Windsor Caesar.
——Mr. Earl, your son the Emperor is in our hands. If you want your son to live, give up the mining rights of the East Marede Mountains, or your son’s life will be in jeopardy!
Although these words seemed casual, the threat was extremely clear, and it was obvious that they had meticulously investigated Windsor Reed’s ownership of the Marede Mountain mining rights.
Ordinarily, someone like Windsor Reed owning mining rights in the Marede Mountains would not be common knowledge, but these kidnappers had managed to uncover the information. Even knowing the English royal family background of Windsor Reed and Caesar, they dared to act against the Emperor, proving their significant power.
Upon seeing this email, Windsor Reed’s first thought was that the kidnappers were probably sent by his rivals, threatening him to give up the Marede Mountain mining rights, aiming to seize his diamond mine, thwart his diamond exhibition in London in May, and undermine his diamond business.
However, Huo Sining, watching from the side, didn’t agree.
She firmly believed that the email was connected to the Mexican drug lord Tranleva.
The Marede Mountains likely housed the drug lord’s secret base, possibly containing significant wealth and secrets, or important items for future development. Windsor Reed’s diamond mining plans probably inadvertently approached the drug lord’s base. The drug dealers feared the base would be accidentally discovered by the miners and decided to act first, planning to drive Windsor Reed out of Mexico.
