Finished
Ethan barely had time to think. Ethan swiftly stood up to assist Jack, but the attacker nearly stabbed him-in- the process. Jack intercepted the blow, and the blade pierced through his arm right before Ethan's eyes.
Ethan was terrified.
The driver saw that Ethan was awake. He prepared to stop the car to help his accomplice subdue the two of them. Realizing the situation, Jack found an opportunity to open the car door and throw Ethan out. White Owl's voice brought Ethan back to reality.
As he felt waves of fear, Ethan also became worried about Jack. Pale-faced, he looked at White Owl and asked urgently, "Have you seen Jack? Where's he?"
"White Owl, Jack was taken away by those men while saving me. He's injured. You need to call the cops and save him. Ethan clutched White Owl's arm, terrified that those men would kill Jack.
Ethan was unable to explain the location, so he only described it to White Owl.
"Relax. Your sister has already gone to find Jack. She'll bring him back safely," White Owl reassured him.
"My sister? Isabelle went to find Jack. How could you let her go?" Ethan was stunned, unable to process what he heard.
A girl like Isabelle went to rescue someone. Ethan looked at White Owl in confusion, doubting his sanity.
"Did you call the cop? Where's my phone?" He searched for his phone.
White Owl replied, "This isn't something the cop can handle. Those people are after your sister. Trust me, she will handle it." Hearing this, Ethan grew even more anxious.
Those people were after Isabelle. Now he understood why they wanted to capture him.
"Who are they? What grudge do they have with Isabelle?"
While asking, Ethan took his phone and dialed Isabelle's number, but she didn't answer.
This was Ethan's first experience with such a situation. The bloody image of Jack's stabbed arm continued to flash before his eyes.
His mind was in chaos, unable to think clearly.
He grabbed his phone and suddenly thought of something. He opened his contact list and found George's number. Then he gave him a call.
This was the first time Ethan had called George.
If White Owl said even the police couldn't help, it must be a matter of influence. George wasn't an ordinary man; he must have a way. If he contacted the police, it would definitely be effective. The White Owl watched Ethan make the call and didn't stop him.

After these days of protecting him secretly, White Owl knew Ethan was just an ordinary high school student, completely different from his sister.
At first, he thought Ethan just didn't know about Isabelle's deeds in Melfrey and her grudge against the Dark Shadow. He was unaware that his sister killed people as if she were slaughtering chickens in Melfrey, and Isabelle was anything but ordinary.
Ethan knew little about Isabelle's deeds.
It seemed Isabelle had hidden many things from her family.
At this hour, George was already asleep.
When he saw the caller ID, he thought he might have read the name wrong. But it was indeed Ethan, not Isabelle.
Why would Ethan call him in the middle of the night?
George answered and heard Ethan's anxious yet hesitant voice, 'Mr. Harris...
George immediately knew something was wrong.
"What happened? Don't be afraid; take your time and tell me."
Hearing George's calm and reassuring voice, Ethan felt grounded and explained the situation, asking for his help.
George quickly dressed and headed to the hospital. He tried to contact Isabelle on the way but failed to reach her.
Soon, George arrived at the hospital.
Ethan sat on the bed, lost in thought, worried about Isabelle and Jack. He kept asking White Owl about Jack, worrying that an untreated arm wound might cause severe blood loss and wondering if the captors. would kill him.
He asked, "Should we inform Jack's family?"
Seeing Ethan's reddened eyes from anxiety, White Owl felt helpless.
He knew Isabelle's capabilities. Despite worrying about the Dark Shadow's preparations, he believed she was not easy to deal with.
However, Ethan's anxiety was eroding White Owl's composure.
George arrived with a team of bodyguards to secure the hospital floor and ensure Ethan's safety.
Seeing the bodyguards at the door, Ethan felt George could help rescue Jack.
"I've already sent people to find your sister and Jack. You need to rest and stop worrying, George reassured Ethan, calming him down.
Then he called White Owl outside.
After understanding the situation. George became concerned.

Dark Shadow had intended to capture Ethan, but Jack had disrupted their plans, and they ended up capturing Jack.
Not killing them, but abducting them-this was a trap meant for Isabelle.
Jack sustained injuries, and Dark Shadows had a hostage. Isabelle was at a disadvantage. George prepared to locate her phone. Before doing so, he tried contacting Isabelle again..
The first call went unanswered.
The second call connected.
"George?"
Hearing Isabelle's voice through the receiver, George felt a wave of relief.
