Chapter 891:
“What do you have to say for yourselves now?” Yelena crossed her arms and looked down at them in disdain.
Despite his defeat, the leader sneered defiantly. “Just you wait… Our boss won’t let you get away with this p>
“Is that so? Who’s your boss?” Austin asked coldly, his eyes flashing with a hint of menace.
The man remained silent, clearly unwilling to divulge any information. Yelena stepped closer, crouching down to meet the man’s gaze and saying gently, “It doesn’t matter if you keep quiet. We have ways of making you talk p>
The man’s expression shifted, a flicker of fear crossing his face. He knew that Yelena and Austin—as ruthless as they were in fighting—were not the type to make empty threats.
Noticing his fear, Yelena pressed on. “If you tell us who your boss is, we might consider letting you off p>
The man hesitated for a moment, but the pressure from Yelena was too much to bear. With a reluctant sigh, he finally said, “Our boss is… Jacob p>
“Jacob? As in Jacob Natt?” Yelena and Austin exchanged a glance. Previously, the skinny man and the bald man had also been Jacob’s subordinates, but Yelena had swiftly dealt with them.
They hadn’t expected Jacob to retaliate again.
Jacob was a notorious thug in the region, known for his extensive criminal history and his habit of terrorizing the local population with his henchmen.
Yelena hadn’t anticipated that Jacob would be the mastermind behind Tessa’s kidnapping.
She couldn’t fathom why Jacob, someone she had no personal issues with, would target Tessa just to threaten Yelena into canceling her engagement party.
Yelena began to suspect that Jacob might not be the one pulling the strings after all. There had to be someone else orchestrating everything behind the scenes.
Nevertheless, Jacob was a threat Yelena couldn’t ignore. If left unchecked, he’d only cause more trouble in the future.

While Yelena was still deep in thought, she suddenly heard Austin say, “Let’s go find him p>
Austin’s voice snapped Yelena out of her thoughts. She looked at him and said, “I’ll take care of these people. I have plans for them p>
Austin wholeheartedly supported Yelena’s every decision.
Still, Austin found himself wondering about Yelena’s plans for the thugs.
After Brody had taken the thugs away, Yelena turned to Austin. “We haven’t uncovered the mastermind behind this, so calling the police isn’t an option. We agreed not to let them off easily, right?” she said.
Yelena then winked playfully at Austin.
A subtle smile appeared on Austin’s face, his gaze filled with affection as he watched Yelena.
Having handled the thugs, Yelena and Austin immediately made their way to Jacob’s residence.
During the drive, Austin asked, “Feeling tired p>
Though slightly drowsy, Yelena maintained her composure and answered, “No, I’m not tired p>
Austin acknowledged her response with a hum. Then, he subtly shifted, gently guiding Yelena’s head to rest against his shoulder. “Rest a little,” he suggested softly.
Yelena tensed for a moment at the closeness. His fragrance was light and refreshing, reminiscent of white tea.
