NovelEnglishChapter 1506: "Oh? You think you can threaten me? No one intimidates me!" Simms felt a sudden pang of fear. He considered whether Harlee was bluffing. Faced with such desperate circumstances, he had nothing to lose by taking a chance.
Yvonne, awakening from the intense pain, chuckled through clenched teeth.
"No one intimidates you? Ha-ha... Harlee, do you even know what's strapped to those two?" Simms' mind snapped back to the explosives wrapped around Skyla's and Tiffany's waists—something Yvonne had insisted on. Both Simms and Yvonne had a detonator in case of an emergency. Simms hadn't planned on using it, but now, faced with Harlee, he was prepared.

Harlee half-lifted her eyelids, her gaze empty and cold. The chill in her eyes was palpable. Threatening her with explosives? Heh. Even with a gun pointed at her head, she remained unfazed. Did they truly think these subpar explosives would intimidate her? Harlee withdrew her compact black gun from her waistband, pointing it directly at Yvonne's wrist. With Yvonne staring back in horror, Harlee spoke clearly, “No one can intimidate me, not even the most powerful. Do you think you're an exception?" Yvonne froze, her body slick with cold sweat. Despite her fear, she doubted Harlee would actually risk the lives of her family. She scoffed derisively, "Harlee, cut the act. At my signal, your mother and Tiffany could be reduced to ashes. Would you really risk killing me? Ha-ha... Go ahead and killthen. They will perish too. Plus, you'd be burdened with guilt forever. Sounds like a fair trade to me." At this point, Yvonne had accepted her fate. If she couldn't secure Harlee's death, she might as well doom those Harlee cared about.

Harlee stared coldly at Yvonne, squeezed the trigger, and subtly adjusted the gun's aim.
In the next moment, a bullet tore through the wrist of Yvonne's hand as she reached for the detonator.
Yvonne howled in pain, her grip tightening on her injured hand as she writhed on the floor. The steel pipe still lodged in her thigh scraped against the cold concrete, intensifying her agony. She fainted once more from the excruciating pain.
Had it not been for the pill Harlee had administered earlier, keeping Yvonne barely conscious, she would have succumbed to her suffering.
Harlee then fired again, destroying the detonator lying on the floor.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSimms was stunned, almost dropping the detonator in his shock. His face drained of color, sweat drenching his brow as fear gripped him. Could Harlee really be the sheltered daughter of the Sanderson family? Her actions were anything but merciful! If he hadn't seen her at the recognition banquet, he might have questioned whether the woman before him was truly Harlee. Had he known of her relentless cruelty beforehand, he would never have dared to engage in this vengeful plot. Now, however, he found himself with no other choice, forced to make his final play.
"Harlee, step back five meters right now. If you don't, I'll activate the bomb!" Simms shouted, clutching the detonator tightly.
"I'm not wounded like Yvonne. If you think their lives don't matter, test whether you can shoot faster than I can press this!"
Harlee's expression darkened, revealing her foul mood and icym resolven her again? When would it stop? Suddenly, the sound of uniformed footsteps approached from outside. Within moments, a swarm of...
Armed police flooded into the factory from every entrance, led by Peyton Hammond, the local police chief.
Upon seeing the chaos, Peyton's expression hardened. He hesitated, uncertain whether it was wise to get involved in a situation involving the daughter of the Sanderson family. If things were to be exposed, would his superiors blhim? But he was already here, and there was no turning back. If he backed out now, the Sanderson family would ruin him long before anyone from higher-ups could intervene.
