“That’s for sure, Mr. Shane. We’ll go over to the riverside now to help our team leader to retrieve the van.”

Shane nodded.

After the SWAT officers left, he took out his cell phone and dialed Silas’ number.

Just as the call connected, Silas’ panicked voice cut through before Shane could even say anything. “Mr. Shane, are you alright? I heard from the SWAT team leader that you jumped off a cliff!”

“I’m fine,” Shane said and massaged his temples.

Silas breathed a sigh of relief and spoke, “That’s good, that’s good… What about Ms. Smith? How is she?”

“She’s fine too, but she went through great shock, and she’s asleep now. I’ll send you our location in a while. Send my helicopter over to get us,” Shane instructed and looked for a place to sit down.

“Understood,” Silas nodded.

Shane then asked, “Have you caught Harrison?”

“I’ve got him, and I’ve locked him up,” answered Silas. “As for the court, Mr. Horner has convinced them to delay the trial for two days.”

 

“That’s great,” Shane nodded.
