Jaden's Decision

Scarlet did not react even after a few seconds had gone by. She was not sure on how to react in this situation, as she looked at Jaden with a blank expression on her face.

Jaden could not help but frown when he saw that. He repeated, "Go ahead. I will be coming after I deal with this guy. Additionally, try to look for Alfie and his family. See if they are safe or not."

Of course, Jaden was taking a gamble here. He was not sure if the compulsory part of the mission only involved where Scarlet was in danger, or the entirety of the mission as a whole.

At least for now, with that group of gangsters having run away, it could be said that Scarlet was temporarily safe. Of course, Jaden hoped that Lucas did not have another plan that he was going to use after the first one failed.

"Okay." Scarlet responded after a moment of hesitation. She was not sure about what Jaden wanted to do to Lucas, but at this moment, she did not care.
