Mercenary’s War
Chapter 948 - 948 938 A False Alarm

948: Chapter 938 A False Alarm 948: Chapter 938 A False Alarm Gao Yang, Frey, Glolov, and Tommy were set to fly to New York while the others would drive, hauling all the equipment they might need from the West Coast straight to New York.

From the moment the funeral had ended, it was the official start of the revenge.

Gao Yang needed to reach New York as fast as possible, and since Glolov and the other two had family in New York, they would fly too.

To take down Tomler, it was unclear what the situation would turn into; it might end with a bullet blasting Tomler’s head, or it could come down to a ground-shaking shootout in Manhattan, the busiest place in the world.

So, no matter what, Gao Yang and his crew had to bring along their most handy weapons.

To start the vengeance meant drawing a clear line from Morgan to avoid implicating him.

Without Morgan’s help, weapon transportation by air to New York was impossible, hence the road was the only option.

The drivers had already set out, while Gao Yang and the other three were at the airport waiting for their flight to New York, which wouldn’t depart for another hour and a half, so they had to wait a bit longer.

All four men seemed somewhat listless, not having rested well these days, coupled with heavier hearts.

Naturally, they weren’t very energetic once they relaxed.

A sudden phone call jolted Gao Yang to attention.

He answered his satellite phone in a daze and then heard Yelena’s anxious voice say, “Gao, did you arrange a bodyguard for me?”

Gao Yang was immediately startled and replied quickly, “What’s wrong?

What happened!”

Yelena’s voice, somewhat confused and frantic, said, “I was on my way to school when a man, a black man who looked like a gang member, followed me.

I ran to get away from him, and then he caught up and asked for my phone number, and suddenly, a man with sunglasses and a gun appeared and tackled the black man, then four people jumped out, pulled their guns, and surrounded me, pushing me into a store.

I had no idea what was happening; then they escorted me to school and left!”

At that moment, Gao Yang truly felt fear.

He was fearless on the battlefield, but he was genuinely afraid for his family and friends.

Steadying himself quickly, Gao Yang gestured with his hand for Glolov and Frey to switch on their phones, then said in a deep voice, “Darling, don’t be afraid.

Tell me your current situation, are you being held hostage?”

“Don’t worry, Gao, don’t worry, I’m fine now, really good.

The man who was following me has been controlled; I’ve already left, I’m perfectly fine.

Those people, they were protecting me.”

Gao Yang breathed a sigh of relief and asked, “Is your situation safe?

Tell me exactly what happened.”

Yelena hurriedly explained, “Those people who suddenly pulled out guns, I realized they’ve actually been following me all along, but they seemed just like ordinary passersby, I hadn’t noticed that they had been by my side for a long time.

Also, I’ve seen one of them frequently around my school, I’m quite sure.”

Yelena seemed to have been frightened and paused before continuing, “Those surrounding me, one of the women told me they were here to protect me and told me not to be afraid.

Later they searched the black man who wanted to talk to me and found a knife on him, then the police came and took the black man away, and those people stayed with me until they delivered me to school.

Dear, did you hire those bodyguards for me?

Is there something wrong?”

Gao Yang didn’t want to scare Yelena, but he needed her to stay alert, so he spoke softly, “Yes, dear, the bodyguards were arranged by us; don’t worry, everything will go on as usual, we’ll be in New York today, and you’ll understand when we meet.

Darling, it was just a small incident today, there’s nothing to worry about, okay?”

After a moment, Yelena replied softly, “Alright, I’ll wait for you to come.

Is my dad alright?

I can’t get through to his phone.”

Gao Yang chuckled and said, “He’s fine, right next to me.

We haven’t arrived yet, so of course his phone won’t work, just wait a bit.”

Gao Yang gave a sign and handed the phone to Glolov, who spoke briefly to Yelena and then hung up, using the excuse that he had to board the plane.

Getting the phone back, Gao Yang immediately called Morgan and, once Morgan answered, he said in a low voice, “Morgan, were the bodyguards with my girlfriend arranged by you?”

“Yes, it seems like you got a call from Yelena; I was just about to tell you.

Today’s incident was just about a small-time troublemaker who definitely got what was coming and got a thorough beating at the police station before confessing to all the petty crimes he’d ever done as a kid.

You can rest easy; it’s all been checked out, no threats, no connections.”

Gao Yang was completely reassured and said in a deep voice, “Morgan, thank you.”

“You’ve already thanked me numerous times; it’s unnecessary.

Once you entrusted your family to me, I had to ensure their safety.

Now listen, there are two more guys who are my men.

They won’t show themselves but will protect from the shadows.

Once you’ve completely resolved your problem, I will withdraw them.

When you get to New York, they’ll meet with you.

You don’t need to worry about these two; they know what to do.

Besides my two men, most of the bodyguards come from legitimate bodyguard companies.

They’re registered with the police station and have a good relationship with it, providing professional bodyguard services for New York’s rich.

They can be trusted.

There are ten of them in total: five follow Yelena since she’s the only one going out daily, while the other five stay near the residence for covert protection.

Their salaries are not cheap, and I will deduct this expense from your dividend, so there’s no need for you to thank me.”

Gao Yang took a breath and smiled, “I won’t say much, alright, you’re a true friend.

I’ve thought about it and have nothing to repay you with.

So if once my matter is settled and I’m not dead, I’ll help you find a few good antique shotguns.

You said it yourself, I have pretty good luck with this sort of thing.”

Morgan laughed heartily, “Alright, you said it.

Your luck has always been good.

Of course, you won’t die.

Finish up your business as soon as possible and then quickly find those shotguns for me.

All I ask is to find that one I’ve been dreaming of, you know, buddy.

I’m seriously counting on you.”

After Gao Yang laughed, he chatted casually for a bit before hanging up the phone and then nodded to Glolov, “The bodyguards were arranged by Morgan.

It was a false alarm, nothing to worry about.

Just some blind hooligan.

And remember, everyone has bodyguards by their side.”

Glolov, Frey, and Tommy all let out a long sigh of relief, and then Glolov said with a grave tone, “Morgan is a real friend to you.

Thank him on our behalf.”

Though it seemed unlikely that anything would happen to their families, with Tomler in New York and Frey’s and the others’ families there too, there were naturally some concerns.

Gao Yang thought for a moment and spoke softly, “Morgan said he would ensure the safety of all our families.

He’s a man of his word and has the capability to do so.

I had planned to have you send your families away before we acted, but it seems that might not be necessary now.”

Frey nodded, “I think it’s unnecessary.

Our identities have been kept very secret.

Tomler may not know our real identities, let alone know that our families are in New York.”

With a wry smile, Glolov said, “Actually, I’m not fond of New York, but Yelena has to study there, no choice.”

Frey also smiled, “My mom and wife don’t like New York either.

They think there are too many New Yorkers, and it’s too expensive for no reason.

But they don’t know any friends and don’t want to leave Natalia and Yelena to live in another city.

Let’s wait for Yelena to graduate, then we can move together.”

After saying this, Frey asked Tommy with a smile, “What about you, any plans?

Are you moving with us or planning to live in New York with your girlfriend?”

Tommy, a grown man, now had an awkward look on his face, “Wherever you guys go, I’ll go.

Vita doesn’t have many friends either.

She’d probably want to move.

As for me, I’m definitely not choosing to stay in New York.

I’m a country bumpkin from a small place; New York isn’t for me, really isn’t.”

After all four of them laughed, Gao Yang asked, “When are you planning to get married?

You’re not considering living in Serbia in the future, are you?”

Tommy shrugged, “No, I was planning to go back to Serbia, but I’ve changed my mind now.

I’ll stay with you guys.

I can just visit Serbia often.”

Tommy always got embarrassed when marriage was brought up, something Gao Yang and the others loved to tease him about.

Just as Gao Yang was about to continue questioning Tommy about when he planned to get married, his phone rang again.

Having had a scare just moments ago, Gao Yang was sensitive to the ringing of the phone.

He answered immediately, only to find it was Justin calling.

Gao Yang let out a sigh of relief, realizing it wasn’t a call from Yelena.

Sticking his tongue out in jest, he said with a laugh, “Hey, got any intelligence to sell, or what?”

Justin also laughed heartily, “You’re half right.

I’m calling to do business, but not to sell information.

I’m selling someone to you.

Interested?”

Gao Yang responded with curiosity, “Sell someone to me?

What are you up to?

Let’s hear it.”

“Buddy, here’s the thing, it really upset me to sell my long-treasured intelligence for four hundred fifty thousand dollars, so I plan to make some more money off you.

I’ve found someone associated with Tomler and I’m thinking of selling him to you.

How about it?

I suppose you wouldn’t refuse this kind of deal?”

Gao Yang laughed, “You’re spouting nonsense again.

Your information wasn’t treasured for a long time; you just couldn’t sell it, that’s more like it.

As for the person you plan on selling, I need to know who they are and how much they are before considering whether to buy them.

So, spill it, who are you planning to sell?”
