Chapter 699: It must be John's trap...
Anna's Pov:
Lucas: I request Jack to take care of John's friends too and luckily he accepted. But unfortunately, they got caught by the cops in your Grindelwald trip.
Tom: You just said Jack will take such good care then how can he plan such a stupid trap on us in our Grindelwald trip to attack Anna?
Does he think we can't save her?
Lucas: Jack does not know that they are going to that Grindelwald city and he didn't plan any attack on Anna.
Tom: What do you mean?
You said all of you are under his custody then how come he doesn't know about those 3 guys?
Lucas: Jack is busy with his other work and missed to monitor them and they got caught by the time we know about their whereabouts but we still did not find why they want to attack Anna and we are confused by thinking about how they know about you people are going on Grindelwald trip...
Tom: You just said they went to Grindelwald to attack Anna so it is clear that Anna is their target and it is easy for them to monitor the whereabouts of Anna and they can easily find where Anna is going and they finally reach Anna and tried to attack her. So what's make you so confused about it?
Lucas: Yeah, but they were locked in a room and they don't know anything about anyone outside of that house and they don't know anything happened in the outside world and they don't provide any information like newspapers mobiles or TV. Sometimes they don't even know whether it is day or night. So how can they get information about Anna and her exact whereabouts?
Tom: Maybe you are locked in a room and maybe you don't know the information about the outside world or maybe you don't know whether it is a day or night but not for John and his friends...
Lucas: What do you mean?
I did not get you...
Tom: Both John and his friends know where anna is and John sends his friends to Grindelwald to attack Anna...
Lucas: What?
What are you talking about?
Is that true?
(Lucas asked with his shocking tone and by looking at Lucas's expression it is clear that Lucas doesn't know anything about the plan made by John...)
Tom: What I will gain if I say lie to you?
I am saying what actually happened on the Grindworld trip and when we interrogate John's friends they informed that John helped them to know where Anna is and they followed his instructions...
Lucas: What the hell...
My son is an idiot and a bastard...
Why he did do that?
Does it mean it is his trap too?
Tom: What do you mean?
John trapped me in the airport along with all the proofs and cops surrounded me and have no way to escape in the same way he trapped his friends in the Grindelwald...
Tom: So you mean John didn't help them to attack Anna instead he trapped them to get caught in our hands...
Lucas: Yes...
Exactly...
He definitely trapped them...
Tom: There is a strong reason behind he trapped you but why would he trap his friends?
Lucas: I don't know the exact reason maybe he had some personal issues with his friends...
Tom: What are they?
Lucas: I don't know his reasons but I am sure he is the one who trapped his friends...
Tom: Why are you so sure about it?
Lucas: Because he is very good at backstabbing and till now even Jack and I did not know it was purely John's plan.
And Jack takes so much care of us in order to protect us and on the other side Jack did not let us know anything that happened outside of our house because he is sure that the Police will trap some plan in order to get us out of his house so to not fall under police trap he does not let us know anything about the outside world and we too stand on his rules very strictly because he is giving shelter and food to us most importantly he saving us from the cops so we used to listen whatever he says but till now I thought John's friends try to escape from the home like I escaped because they don't like the house arrest maybe they feel like it is a punishment but now I understand it is totally John's plan...
Tom: Why does John want his friends to be caught by the police?
Lucas: I don't know about his intentions behind it, sir, but I am sure it is his plan...
Tom: Okay, tell me why Jack tried to safeguard John's friends too?
Lucas: Actually it's me who requested Jack to take care of them because they have the video of my attack on Ria. So In order to protect myself, I requested Jack to safeguard everyone...
Tom: Okay, but first tell me what is the relationship between Jack and you? Why Jack helped to all of you by risking his life and career?
Is it a formal or informal relationship?
Lucas: Initially it is a formal relationship between Jack and me. He used to give his investigation services to my company but he came close to me like a friend and well-wisher. So I started inviting him to my family parties too but by that time I don't know he is gay. I got to know about him at one of my parties where John and his friends have attended the party.
He shows some special interest in John and asked me everything about him.
