Arabella eyed the encroaching Chester with caution, still unsure of their Achilles’ heel.
She had tried stabbing at Chester's temple, heart, and stomach, and other areas with knife, but it had no effect on them.
"Take the grandparents and leave first, I'll cover your retreat with my men," Romeo said to the girl beside him as the Chesters
closed in.
"You can't handle them on your own," Arabella knew that besides Romeo, even Jack and the others were no match for these
Chesters.
Romeo was trying to buy her time, and she feared it could cost him his life.
"Just do as | say." Romeo's blade swiftly slashed at Chester's arm, but from shoulder to wrist, Chester's skin remained unscathed,
as if he were slifeless automaton.

More and more bodyguards fell, with nowhere left to retreat. The main doors were sealed shut, their guns were out of bullets, and
the windows stood two meters high.
In that moment, Tyrannosaurus sent Stinger flying with a powerful kick. Stinger slammed into a pillar and crumpled to the ground,
coughing up blood.
"Hahahahaha." Serena reveled in the sight of her vanquished foes, "I told you, all of you are going to die here today."
Stinger couldn't get up, his gaze fixed on the girl by the altar, his desire for revenge sapped of vigor.
His vision blurred, he reminisced about boating on the lake with his parents in the park as a child, yearning to see their faces one
last time. But in a daze, he saw the image of Arabella and the rest cornered by about twenty Chesters, with Arabella far away from
him.
His consciousness fluctuated between clarity and fuzziness.
As the Chesters moved to strike Arabella and her group, Serena abruptly commanded, "Wait."
The Chesters froze, as if someone had hit the pause button.
"Romeo, if you don't want her to die a gruesdeath, marry me!" Serena blurted out her demand.
"Marry you and you'll spare everyone here?" Romeo asked, his smile laced with sarcasm.
"Of course not." Serena laughed, "If you agree to tie the knot with me, | might spare her life, but the rest are doomed."
"You wouldn't even spare who was once your family?" Romeo was referring to Bernard and the others.
"They deserve to die."
If Arabella weren't of suse to leverage Romeo into obedience, Serena would gladly have her dead that very day!

"You dare to cnear me?" Romeo's lips curled coldly, wasn't she afraid he might kill her in a moment of anger?
Serena blushed coyly, "Unless it's our wedding night, you can't touch me."
She had confidence in her subordinates—Tyrannosaurus, Nighthawk, and the Chesters.
"You are in your dreams." Arabella didn't expect her to still be obsessed with Romeo at this crucial moment. Seizing the opportunity
while the Chesters were motionless, Arabella dashed towards the altar with lightning speed.
"Bella." Romeo wanted to follow her but hesitated, fearing that if the Chesters sprang into action again, Jack and Wolf would be
overwhelmed, and the Collins family would be in danger.
Serena mistook Arabella's intentions, thinking she was seizing the chance to kill her.
Unexpectedly, Arabella ran to a spot five or six meters away from the altar, helped the injured Stinger up, intending to take him
with her.
Serena signaled Tyrannosaurus with a glance, and he immediately moved to block their escape.
