Chapter 308
In such a dangerous situation, the sinister man found himself distracted. He was wondering who had betrayed the organization and sold out this operation.
This should have been Matthew's perfect opportunity to attack, but the appearance of the gun-wielding woman disrupted his plan.
Unsure if she was a friend or a foe, Matthew and his men hesitated for a few seconds.
Knowing that the sinister man had misunderstood, the woman did not bother to explain. Instead, she just smiled at him.
Furious and desperate, the man resorted to threatening the woman with Lucy again.
"So what if you have a gun? Do you dare kill me? I'm telling you, get out of my car or I'll kill her!"
He edged the knife closer to Lucy's neck, causing blood to trickle down.
Matthew's heart tightened, and his fists were clenched so tight that his nails were digging into his flesh.
The woman in the car smiled, unfazed by the man's threats. Without moving her gun, she said to the man, "Her? I don't care about her. If you want to kill her, go ahead. I'm here to deal with you."From NôvelDrama.Org.
What? She was actually after him? Her words sent shockwaves through both parties.
Matthew heard her loud and clear. To ensure Lucy's safety, he weighed his words.
"Miss, hold on, The man you're here for has the princess of Charleston in his hands. If you save her, the king and queen of Charleston, as well as myself, Matthew Leon, will be deeply grateful to you. Anything you want will be yours.
"But if you let her die, we won't let you go."
Matthew explained the stakes to her, and the woman chuckled, amused by the man before her.
"You hear that? The terms he's offering sounds quite appealing to me. Plus, saving her doesn't go against me killing you."
Only then did the man realize that the woman was not allied with Matthew and his group.
Inspired by Matthew's words, the

His boss had promised to take care of his family no matter what.
In that critical moment, a bullet and a car key were shot out in an instant.
1.5 seconds after the bullet hit the man's forehead, the car key also successfully struck the hand holding the knife.
The strong recoil caused the man's body to fall backward, and the knife in his hand fell to the ground with a clatter.
Nobody saw it coming. Matthew's whole arm was trembling, but he did not bother paying attention to it.
He staggered to Lucy's side, who was lying on the ground unconscious.
After confirming that Lucy was safe and seeing that she only had a slight scratch on her neck, Matthew hugged her tightly in relief.
"Lulu, my wife, you're okay. Thank goodness you're okay."
Matthew muttered to himself as he held the unconscious Lucy, feeling a wave of relief.
If... If anything had happened to Lucy, he would never forgive himself.
