Chapter 1159: Unexpected Incident (Part 2)
"If we're fortunate enough to live to retirement, we can find a quiet place to live together."
Joe Ga had never seen someone propose like this before, and what surprised him even more was that Teresa nodded and accepted the ring from Sanderson's hand...
She put the ring on and felt it, then nodded firmly and said, "It's settled then, on the day we retire...
I want a log cabin, preferably with a meadow with a stream and a flock of sheep..."
Sanderson grinned broadly, nodded, then looked at Joe Ga and said, "Boss, where do you need me to go?"
Joe Ga wasn't sure whether to congratulate the couple. Just as he was about to speak after hearing Sanderson's question, his phone suddenly rang...
Looking at the message, Joe Ga frowned and signaled Sanderson to stay quiet. He dialed a number and walked outside the hall...
"General Soleimani, what guidance do you have by contacting me suddenly?"
Soleimani's voice on the other end was slightly breathless: "Hu Lang, someone is targeting you..."
Joe Ga was stunned for a moment and said solemnly, "Why now? Who would be foolish enough to target me at this time?"
Soleimani sighed slightly and said, "Someone in America contacted Iran. Someone couldn't resist the temptation..."
Joe Ga suddenly laughed in disbelief and said mockingly, "How many times will you be played before you learn?
Big Mouth Tang withdrew from the IH agreement and declared sanctions against you, yet you still shamelessly cozy up to them, and the most foolish part is you even plan to target me!"
Soleimani was clearly surprised and displeased too. He said solemnly, "Every country has its weak, spineless ones, and Iran is no exception.
Our nuclear experts suffered heavy casualties because of the foolish choices of such cowards. Our country has become increasingly weak under their leadership.
Hu Lang, I despise those people, but I can't do anything about them!
The sanctions severely hit Iran's economy, and during the chaos, those people threw bait to those cowards...
I don't want you to become Iran's enemy, so I notified you as soon as I got the information.
Leave Syria immediately; the team they sent can't operate outside the Middle East..."
How could Joe Ga walk around his enemies?
As he frowned, thinking about who wanted to scheme against him, Dorian suddenly approached, handing him a tablet...
Joe Ga reached out to tap the video open, seeing Chris tied to a chair, with masked terrorists behind him and an ISIS flag...
He sighed and tossed the computer to Dorian, then said into the phone, "Your people are smart; they've kidnapped someone very important to me...
They're doomed!
The difference is how many I choose to kill; if you're willing to provide intelligence, fewer will die!
General Soleimani, I've tolerated your operations in Iraq, even when your people made offensive moves I had my people endure.
I don't believe anyone in Iran could bypass you to kidnap my people in Iraq!
I need an answer, 15 minutes, I'm only giving you 15 minutes.
You're surely aware of who Chris is, but you definitely don't know his fiancée is Gami Kopurko.
Your people are on hands and knees for the bones thrown by some people in America, without realizing that if something happens to Chris, Gami will deal a tremendous blow to you...
You're beyond foolish; you've made a fierce enemy for your fragile currency market!
Trust me, if something happens to Chris, Gami will join the Wall Street ranks to whitewash many people's savings in Iran!
I guarantee you can't stop it, and I guarantee the consequences will be 10 times more severe than what's happening now...
Because I will help her, as soon as something happens to Chris, I will make you repay it a hundredfold, a thousandfold...
I'll ensure you gain nothing in Iraq, Syria, or Yemen!"
Soleimani was silent for a long time, clearly searching for information on Gami...
Minutes later, this hawk known for his toughness in Iran said somewhat weakly, "Wait a few minutes..."
Joe Ga hung up the call and, closing his eyes to think for a while, said to Dorian, "Have my private jet ready for takeoff. Prepare everyone, including Igor and others; we drive to Baghdad...
We might be in big trouble this time!"
Dorian paused, nodded heavily, and left to notify the others...
Just as Boss Qiao was deep in thought, a call came to Joe Ga's phone...
Seeing Gami's number, Joe Ga decisively picked it up and said, "Gami, don't worry, Chris will be fine..."
As a financial shark, Gami remained very calm. Her tone and pitch didn't waver; she merely said in a slightly stern tone, "Hu Lang, soon a man named Garci will call you; you can trust him..."
Joe Ga paused, saying, "Who is this Garci?"
Gami calmly said, "Garci is an intelligence officer for Chris's company. He's highly experienced and is already on a plane leading a team to Baghdad...
That bastard Chris was blinded by money. He's been operating that humanitarian corridor in Iraq for years, and Garci has been handling the European Intelligence Company's business for him.
Garci is absolutely trustworthy!"
Joe Ga hesitated for a moment and said, "Chris is in trouble; I don't want strangers involved. What's your basis for saying he's trustworthy?"
Gami was silent for a moment and said, "Because Garci is Chris's biological father!
He used to be under Chris's father but divorced due to long-term assignments.
Chris's mother remarried his father when Chris was just one year old.
Later, both of Chris's parents died in an accident. After retiring, Garci actively joined Chris's intelligence company and helped him grow...
Hu Lang, Garci saved my life in Frankfurt and was the one who introduced Chris to me...
He's incredibly, incredibly capable!"
Joe Ga took a deep breath and said, "I understand..."
"Hu Lang..."
Joe Ga heard the unease in Gami's voice, and he said sternly, "Gami, you have to trust my professionalism!
As a partner in the Iraq Humanitarian Corridor, Chris made significant contributions to P.B.
I will definitely rescue him safely!"
Gami was silent for a moment and said, "Hu Lang, Uncle Garci said their target might be you..."
Joe Ga sighed slightly and said, "I know, so I need to rescue Chris even more!
I still don't know exactly who is behind this kidnapping. I need to give those people a stern warning, one they'll never forget!
I'll show them that if they cross the wrong person, there's no safe place in this world!"
