Ten minutes later, Connor and Yelena finally swam to the shore.
After the two people came ashore, they shook off the dirty water on their clothes and looked very sorry.
Fortunately, neither of them suffered any serious injuries. It was just that Grizzly Bear slashed Connor’s arm again.
If not for Connor’s quick reaction, they would have died at the hands of Grizzly Bear and Leopard.
A breeze blew, and Connor and Yelena were drenched.
Yelena trembled as she said, “Connor, thank you so much for just now. I didn’t expect this Jake to be so crazy, so crazy to hire hitmen to kill me!”
“The other party might not be after you but me!” Connor replied in a low voice.
“They are after you?”
After Yelena heard that, she couldn’t help but be stunned. She said with a puzzled expression, “How is that possible? You’re just an ordinary student. Who has such a huge grudge against you? To even hire hitmen to kill you…”
“If they are hitmen hired by Jake, I don’t think they would have come looking for us so soon. After all, it takes time for Jake to find hitmen…” Connor analyzed out loud.
“Did you offend someone?” Yelena frowned and asked Connor.
“…” When Connor heard this, he glanced at Yelena.
He didn’t want to tell Yelena about his issues yet, so he could only say indifferently, “Maybe the people in the casino have their eyes on the money in our hands, so they want to kidnap the two of us to extort money…”
“That’s also possible!” Yelena nodded gently.
Connor felt that Jake did not send these two hitmen.
It was impossible for Jake to find the hitmen so quickly. Connor felt these two people would likely be Rockefeller’s or Yannick’s men!
Yannick had the guts to do such a vicious thing.
“Well, Connor, it’s not very far from my place. Why don’t you shower and change your clothes at mine first?” Yelena was shivering from the cold as she stammered to Connor.
“Sure…” Connor nodded gently, then helped Yelena up and walked toward the roadside.
A few minutes later, Connor and Yelena came to the roadside. A taxi happened to pass by, and Connor hurriedly hailed the taxi.
When the taxi driver saw Connor and Yelena in such a state, he couldn’t help but be momentarily stunned. He asked in a puzzled tone, “What were you two doing? Swimming?”
“…” Yelena was an internet celebrity. She was worried the taxi driver would recognize her, so she kept covering her face with her hand.
“Sir, we accidentally fell into River Davenport just now…” Connor explained helplessly.
“You have to be careful. 1 heard River Davenport is not shallow…” The taxi driver replied indifferently, then looked at Yelena and said softly, “Young man, remember to make some ginger water for your girlfriend when you get home. Girls are built differently from us men. Don’t catch a cold…”
“Yes!” Connor nodded lightly and didn’t say anything more to the taxi driver.
About ten minutes later, Connor and Yelena arrived at the residential area of Yelena’s place.
This was not the first time Connor had come to Yelena’s house, so they quickly returned home.
When she got home, Yelena realized that Connor’s arm was bleeding. She hurriedly asked Connor, “Connor, why is your arm bleeding again? Should we go to the hospital?”
“There’s no need to go to the hospital. Just find some gauze and bandage it!” Connor replied indifferently.
Connor had always thought that nothing good would happen when he met Yelena. Now, this came true. Connor hadn’t met Yelena for the entire summer vacation, and nothing happened. However, as soon as he met Yelena today, he was injured twice.
“Are you going to be fine?” Yelena frowned and asked Connor.
“I’m fine. Don’t worry, I’m not that weak!” Connor replied Yelena.
“All right then!”
Yelena looked at Connor and nodded helplessly. Then, she took some gauze and disinfectant from the drawer in the living room and helped Connor bandage it up.
After the bandages were done, Yelena whispered to Connor, “Well, Connor, why don’t you shower first?”
“You should go first. I’m not very cold now…” Connor replied to Yelena lightly. He found that Yelena was shivering from the cold, and her clothes were wet. If she didn’t take a shower, she would catch a cold.
“So I’ll go take a shower first?” Yelena was also quite cold then, so she whispered to Connor.
“Go on! Don’t freeze and catch a cold!” Connor indifferently replied to Yelena.
Yelena looked at Connor, took a deep breath, then turned around and walked into the bathroom.
“Whoosh…”
A few seconds later, Connor heard water flowing from the bathroom.
Connor took out his phone, but he found that his phone had died because of the water.
So Connor found Yelena’s home phone, picked up the phone, and then put in Thomas’s phone number from his memory.
“Ring, ring!”
The phone rang twice before Thomas picked it up and asked softly, “Who is it?”
“It’s Connor!” Connor said in a low voice.
“Mr. McDonald?”
Thomas was stunned when he heard Connor’s voice. Then, he asked in a puzzled tone, “Mr. McDonald, why are you using this number to contact me? Did something happen?”
“I met two hitmen just now. These two probably came for me!” Connor said slowly.
“Someone wants to kill you?”
Thomas’s tone changed drastically when he heard that. He hurriedly replied, “Mr. McDonald, where are you now? I’ll bring someone over to look for you now…”
“There’s no need…” Connor replied indifferently and continued, “I’m out of danger now. I’m calling you to help me investigate the information of these two hitmen. They should still be in Porthampton. You’d better find them and ask the mastermind behind them.”
“Understood…” Thomas hurriedly said.
Connor briefly described the appearance and appearance of the two hitmen to Thomas. Although it was not very detailed, it was fortunate that the physical characteristics of these two people were very obvious.
Connor felt that if Thomas followed these characteristics, he should be able to find these two people very quickly.
“Okay, Mr. McDonald, I got it. I’ll get someone to look for it now!” Thomas hurriedly replied after listening to Connor’s description..
