Chapter 275: Chapter 233: Sudden Harvest and Midnight Screams!

Grant heard the sound of the car and looked up to see the car stopping and Sean Knight and Elijah Hastings getting out. He quickly pushed Jenny and said in a low voice:

"Get away!"

But Jenny didn’t want to go. She twisted her body reluctantly, her face showing a pitiful expression again.

Sean sneered. This tea-girl is still attempting to gain sympathy from others.

At this moment, Webb Crete with one arm hanging in a sling walked out of the tent. Seeing Jenny’s expression, he immediately went to comfort her:

"Jenny, don’t worry. The boss won’t blame you. You did it for everyone too..."

"Yeah, yeah!" Upon hearing Webb’s words, Jenny seemed to have found a confidant. "I just thought that the boss and Mr. Hastings were very capable and could definitely deal with those robbers, so I said that!

If I hadn’t said that, I’m afraid everyone present would have been killed by the robbers!"

After saying that, Jenny sneakily glanced at Sean and Elijah, who were walking towards her, then lowered her head and said with a crying tone:

"It’s just that my approach didn’t get everyone’s understanding... Misunderstandings are misunderstandings after all. I can bear it. As long as everyone is safe, what does this little misunderstanding count for?"

Sean almost vomited!

Troublemakers, it seemed, were not limited by national borders!

At this point, Lincoln Harrington came out from behind the car, and Douglas Cooper ran down from the highpoint of the mountain with his gun on his back.

"Boss, it’s great that you guys are alright!"

"Haha, didn’t you guys see who we are!" Elijah laughed proudly.

"Alright, let’s talk about this now." Sean glanced at everyone else.

At this time, Willow Taylor, who had been packing things inside the tent, also came outside.

Hearing Sean’s words, everyone present quieted down.

Grant seemed worried about Sean punishing Jenny, hesitated for a moment, but still said:

"Mr. Knight, considering that no one was seriously injured and you were able to successfully repel the robbers, please forgive Jenny. After all, she had good intentions."

"Good intentions?" Elijah sneered, "She had good intentions and told the robbers about our whereabouts? If we hadn’t made preparations beforehand, we’d probably have been dragged to death behind their cars by now!"

"You were fine, weren’t you..." Webb also wanted to say something nice for Jenny. However, he was always shy. For him to mumble a few words was already his limit.

"I’m sorry..." Jenny lowered her head, her eyes red. "I didn’t mean to... I just saw Webb injured and felt pain in my heart. I thought Mr. Knight and Mr. Hastings could handle those people, so I... I really had everyone’s best interests in mind... wuwuwu..."

Hearing Jenny cry, Webb’s heart was about to break!

Grant sighed. He had said what needed to be said.

How to decide was still up to Sean.

He was an old fox who didn’t want to ruin their mission because of this matter.

Willow Taylor had opposed Jenny’s actions from the beginning, but now, hearing Jenny say this, she was somewhat shaken.

Did Jenny really do it for everyone’s sake?

After all, the situation was indeed quite critical at that time. With only Lincoln and Douglas having guns, the others hid and were genuinely scared.

However, Sean was not moved at all.

Jenny’s words would have deceived Webb, who was bewitched by her, and Willow Taylor, who was inexperienced. But not Sean!

He heard it clearly at that time. Jenny was frightened and just wanted to get the robbers away.

She could make it sound so righteous while stirring up trouble—her skill in tea-making was truly profound!

"You know perfectly well what you were thinking at the time," Sean said coldly. "Elijah was right. If we hadn’t been prepared, we wouldn’t even know how we died!"

"No... I didn’t mean to... I really did it for everyone..." Jenny yelled desperately as she realized she couldn’t deceive Sean. She was disappointed. Could this young Chinese man really not see her beauty?

"No more talking. Pack up and leave." Sean decided her fate with a single sentence.

Then he said to Lincoln, "You and Willow Taylor drive her to the nearest town, buy her a ticket to Ulan Bator, and let her take care of the rest."

With her extensive tea-making skills, there should be no problem for her to return to China.

Jenny cried out loudly, but Sean remained unmoved.

Webb couldn’t watch any longer and suddenly said:

"I will go back with her!"

"No problem!" Sean glanced at Grant and asked Willow Taylor:

"And you?"

"I’ll stay." Willow Taylor looked at Grant and whispered.

"I, of course, will stay." Grant immediately said. He thought a bit more and added, "I’d like to hire some helpers to dig. It would take too long with just a few of us..."

"No problem," said Sean. "Lincoln, take them to the town, send the two of them away, and then hire some people."

Grant was delighted. It seemed Sean truly wanted to support his search for dinosaur fossils. As for Jenny, it was a pity, but he had no choice.

She was just a student - even though she was pretty, there were many pretty students among his students. He could do without one!

However, dinosaur fossils were in short supply!

Jenny knew that saying anything more would be useless, so she lowered her head and started packing. At least she had Webb to accompany her.

The next day, two cars full of locals arrived and started digging under Grant’s direction.

Lincoln had checked the local wage levels and offered pay that was relatively high but not so much as to incite jealousy, so these people were happy to help.</p
