Chapter 337 We Were Being Watched
“Leo was caught.”
Hazel tightly pursed her lips, her expression serious and worried, with a heavy sense of an impending storm in her heart.
Leo has always been her hidden ace,
He had always operated in the dark, and over the years, he had never appeared in public except in front of his own people, and no one else knew about his relationship with her.
Even the last time he took people to Los Angeles to save Leila, he was wearing a mask to conceal his appearance.
Johnson’s eyes darkened and he furrowed his brows tightly upon hearing the words.
How could it be so coincidental?
His industries abroad were attacked by an unknown force, causing severe damage and many of his subordinates were taken away.
And Leo happened to be taken away at this time?
Upon hearing about the situation on Johnson’s side and the incident of Leo being arrested, a cold light flashed in Hazel’s calm eyes, and she whispered, “We are being targeted.”
She never believed that there were so many coincidences in this world.
After Johnson’s scars disappeared from his face, his features became more handsome and delicate. He looked at Hazel and said in a deep voice, “I have to go back to Canada for a while.”
So many brothers got into trouble, as the eldest, he couldn’t ignore it.
“Don’t worry, I immediately arranged for someone to investigate this matter and will definitely bring Leo back safe and sound.”
One important reason why Leo has been untraceable in recent years is that his place of residence has never been a fixed existence.
He was passionate about traveling and adventuring.
Today in the primeval forest, tomorrow I might be deep–sea fishing, and the day after tomorrow, who knows where I’ll fly to.
Even if Hazel and her friends wanted to contact him, they would always do so through email.
Leo’s computer talent, up until now, has never encountered an opponent. His ability to flexibly utilize various identities is his lifesaver.
Even if all of them were caught, Hazel felt that Leo wouldn’t be among these people.
But now!
The least likely person to be caught, and yet they were caught while in transit?
Hazel appeared even colder and more indifferent as she pondered, making it difficult to imagine what kind of person was hiding behind her.
“Well, after you went back, you directly looked for Ethan.”
“I left a list with him, all of whom have had intricate connections with the laboratory over the years.”
Johnson knew that the list was her trump card.
She would not use the connections on that list unless it was absolutely necessary.
He comforted her, saying, “Leo was not a person who would give up easily. He had the ability to protect himself, and he had many capable people under his command. There would definitely be no problem.”
Now, what Johnson is more concerned about is…
Leila stayed in the country, which was equivalent to exposing Hazel’s weakness in front of her opponents.
“Did the child want me to take him away?” he asked for her opinion.
Hazel shook her head, “No need, it’s more reliable to have Leila stay by my side.”
Anyway, domestically, there are strict restrictions on certain weapons, but it may not be the case in foreign countries.
She admonished Johnson, “You must pay attention to safety and come back safely.”
Under the bright indoor lighting, the man’s beautiful eyes deeply looked at her, and the curve of his mouth lifted as he said, “Don’t worry, I will

definitely come back safely.”
Johnson had just left when Hazel received another phone call.
At this time, in Gabriel’s ward, after days of treatment with powerful medication, his wounds were gradually scarring and he was able to change into hospital clothes.
Leila lay on the sofa by the window, counting the small yellow flowers on the tree outside.
Suddenly, there was a “huh” sound.
She ran to the window and waved at Johnson as he got into the car, shouting loudly, “John–”
The man, seemingly moved, turned his head towards the direction of Gabriel’s ward.

Due to the design of the glass, he couldn’t see Leila waving inside. After taking a deep look, he got on the car and headed straight to the airport.
“John was very anxious.”
Leila murmured, rarely seeing Johnson with such a serious expression.
Gabriel, who was working on the sickbed, heard his daughter’s murmuring voice and turned his head to ask, “What did Leila see?”
Leila recounted Johnson’s hurried actions, her soft voice filled with a sense of worry.
“John looked pitch black, so serious.”
It has been a troubled autumn recently, and Gabriel instantly felt a sense of alertness in his heart.
He was about to call Matthew in when he saw him enter the room with a serious expression on his face.
With children present, Matthew found it difficult to speak openly, so he simply handed over the tablet he had in his hands.
Leila thought about the hurried John just now and wondered to herself, “Oh no, could it be that something happened to mom?”
Worried about her mother, Leila immediately climbed down from the sofa.
She ran to the bedside and said to Gabriel, “Uncle, I’m going to find Mommy. Rest well, be good.”
The ward was far away from Hazel’s office.
Leila quickly looked for a female assistant to help.
Gabriel was worried about her, so he had Matthew accompany her with a bodyguard.
He continued to browse through the information on the tablet in his hand, his eyes gradually deepening in color. After finishing reading all the information, he immediately dialed a phone number.
“Mr. Sterling, I am Gabriel.”
“The thing you mentioned earlier, I agreed to it, but I also have a condition.”
Since Gabriel decided to take this path, the Campbell Group’s business has gradually moved towards the military technology level.
He directly gave up many high–investment, high–risk business areas and started to take a steady path.
The days spent recuperating at the experimental base were cozy and joyful.
But it was not a long–term solution.
He still had a long way to go.
Two days later.
When Hazel heard the news that Gabriel was leaving, she did not stop him.
The man’s wound on his body recovered well, and with continued attention, there would be no more life–threatening incidents.
Leila looked at Gabriel with some reluctance and softly admonished, “Uncle, you have to take care of yourself, the buttock injection can be painful, very painful.”
“Okay, Uncle must have cherished his life.”
Gabriel held her tiny body tightly, smelling the sweet scent of candy on her, and finally cherished these few seconds of warmth.
“I brought Enrique back to protect Leila, so you can go ahead and do whatever you want.”

His eyes were pure
black, and although he didn’t say anything, Hazel could sense the meaning behind his words.
The more people protecting children, the more safety there is.

Hazel did not refuse his proposal and reminded him to take care of their two sons in Seattle.
“With grandpa around, they were very safe at the Campbell’s villa.”
Gabriel had intended to have her send her daughter to the Campbell’s villa as well, but considering her current temperament, he ultimately did not say it out loud.
Before leaving, he lowered his head and gazed at her eyebrows and eyes, with certain emotions that couldn’t be expressed hidden in his black pupils.
After putting the child to sleep, Hazel dialed Johnson’s phone number.
“The situation on this side has been resolved, but there is still no news from Leo, and no one from the other side has contacted us.”
The man had just finished dealing with the matter at hand.
After receiving the phone call, he wiped the bloodstains off his hands and told her about the situation on his side.
“Sometimes no news is good news.”
