As the smell of blood gradually spread, a bloody figure, that did not resemble a human anymore, stood
out from the glass shards.
As a breeze from the outside blew past them, coldness was not the only thing it brought in; it also took
a few of the gunmen’s lives.
Thud! Thud!
They fell to the ground and blood spilled on the clean marble floor.
With indifference in his eyes, Trey glanced around the lobby and suddenly disappeared
Meanwhile, Jasmine took in a deep breath as she witnessed this from the surveillance room.
She took up her walkie-talkie and reported anxiously, “Be quick. We are running out of time.”
In the auction hall, Dave nodded slowly when he heard her voice through his earpiece. “Gather at the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtrooftop in five minutes.”
With that, he lowered his right arm and passed a laptop to his subordinate before focusing his gaze on
the man who held a prominent position in the Central Parliament, Edwin.
“Dear Mr. Congressman, I need your help.” Flashing a cold smile, Dave looked at him.
In the surveillance room, Jasmine saw Trey, a young man who suddenly appeared out of nowhere,
quickly defeating dozens of well-trained gunmen, and was now almost at the tenth floor.
Taking another deep breath, she spoke her walkie-talkie once again. “You have two minutes left, at
most.”
“Change of plans – carry out plan B.”
A deep, male voice suddenly rang in both Jasmine and Dave’s ears.
Dave froze momentarily before he quickly grabbed Edwin by the throat to yank him out of his seat.
“Let him go!” Benny yelled loudly to stop him.
However, Dave turned around and pointed his gun at Benny’s head.
Sitting at the second table, Yuna grabbed her husband’s arms tightly. “Q-Quick, save my Dad!”
Charlie quietly rolled his eyes before patting her hand to console her. “Don’t worry. He won’t dare to
open fire at your dad.”
Benny, who had been in the business field for decades, did not even flinch when the gun was directed
at him. “If you have the guts to hurt Mr. Townsend, there would be no place for you in Paramount.”
“If I hear any more nonsense coming from you, I’ll kill you!” Dave warned lethally before he retracted
his gun and dragged Edwin to the door.
“Finally… Those criminals are now gone!” Benny heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that the rest of
the criminals had followed their leader and left.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSuddenly, a loud bang reverberated through the room. The door was kicked open, and people from the
Special Operations Brigade barged into the room.
The unexpected attack stunned all the criminals, Dave included. They were apprehended before they
could even contemplate the situation.
Seeing that the incident had a sudden, pleasant twist, all the guests in the hall unanimously sighed in
relief.
“Mr. Congressman, you must have been in great shock!” A tall man walked through the door with his
back straight. “I’m Andrew Doyle, the leader of the Special Operations Brigade. I was tasked with the
mission to save everyone here.”
Looking at the promising young man wearing a uniform with the words “Ministry of Defense” sewn in
front of his chest, Edwin slowly nodded. “Very good. You guys came just at the right time.”
At the same time the door of the elevator opened to the presidential suite on the top floor of the hotel,
followed by a burly man who emanated murderous intent entering the room.
