Semua Bab Guardian-In-Law: Bab 4411 - Bab 4420

“I heard that various groups from across Arcadia are here. Frankly, I was rattled enough to tighten security around me, but I’m worried about you. In the end, I decided you needed protection too,” Edmund explained. It did not make sense for Edmund to beef up his security without considering Kaze. Kaze, however, was exasperated. “I don’t need any protection. Like I said, I have been keeping my identity under wraps. The presence of a security team will only lead others to me.“Don’t send anyone to me. Call them back now,” Kaze uttered. “I see. I’m sorry, Mr. Lee. I didn’t think of that. I did so only for your safety.” Edmund felt bad because he had not considered that aspect. Thinking about it now, Edmund realized how absurd his orders were. “I know you mean well, so I won’t blame you. I expect these people to return to the branch right away. No more following me,” Kaze said. “Yes, Mr. Lee. Rest assured, I’ll get them to leave now.” Edmund was concerned that his mistak

“Don’t worry. Mr. Lee isn’t a wicked person. He won’t put us in danger. At least, he’ll send a rescue team if we are honestly at risk.” Edmund could reach Kaze. However, he did not do so, trusting that Kaze had eyes on the situation. At the base of the hill, rows of black vehicles lined the road.While their objective was shared, they belonged to different entities. Everybody chose to bide their time, not rushing to make a call. Since the target was in the hilltop villa, they could very well attack the area and capture him for interrogation. Then, they would finally find out who the real branch leader was. However, no one made the first move. Instead, they waited to see what others would do. The long wait played on everybody’s nerves. They grew restless and keen to put an end to the exhausting situation. “Why isn’t anyone stepping out of the car in front? They know Edmund is here. Why are they such cowards? No one is stepping up to the plate.” “Oh, chill out. Just fo

Sure enough, a few individuals were perched on the walls surrounding the villa. With weapons in hand, they kept their eyes on the target. The first gunshot was a warning, not meant to cause any harm. These people sure were gracious, hesitating in the face of animosity. “Leave right now. This is private property,” the man atop the wall said out loud. Now was the time for the enemy to back down rather than foolishly press on. “We are members of the Viper’s Den and brothers-in-arms. There’s no need for violence,” Shia responded from behind a tree.Despite the circumstances, Shia remained unfazed and would show no mercy. He gestured to his companions to spring into action. They drew out their weapons and aimed at the security personnel, ready to fire. “In that case, why are you sneaking into the place in the middle of the night? Your behavior goes beyond what brotherhood entails.“All is well if you walk away now. We won’t be so kind if you want to play hardball,” the

“Well, aren’t you dumb for acting rashly without knowing anything?” Kaze rushed over the moment he received the text message. He had insight into the situation. Despite exposing his identity, no one believed him. His cover held up pretty well. Since Edmund was in trouble, Kaze had to intervene and sort out the issue quickly. “No matter who you are, you’re going down for messing with me,” Shia said without a care. He drew his weapon and darted toward Kaze. There was enough distance for them to fire their guns. However, it would not be wise because their companions were close by. It would be bad if they were hurt. Besides, they decided to attack since the guy needed to be taken down a notch. “Well, this is something. You’ve got guts.” Kaze confronted him without a weapon when the man charged toward him. As they engaged in combat, they got a good sense of each other’s strength and speed. Even so, they did not flinch. Instead, a look of respect crossed their faces.

“I’m not talking. Don’t bother asking me any questions. I dare you to kill me.” Silas remained stubborn, refusing to let up any information. At this point, all he sought was a swift end to his suffering. He knew his tormentors would not spare him, and the chances of Silas walking out alive were none. “You should know what happens if you defy us. You’re our prisoner now, and we will make you wish you were dead,” Edmund uttered curtly. Silas would not get a second chance. Silas was bound to die at Edmund’s hands. “So what? Even if I talk, you won’t cut me any slack anyway.” Determination reflected in Silas’ eyes. He knew that there was more to the situation and what lay ahead of him. Silas could only resign himself to his fate, despite his frustration.“Winner takes all, right? Since I’m your captive, I’ll embrace the consequences without any resistance.” Silas spoke with indignation. In truth, he was powerless to fight back. Tied to a chair, Silas could not move.
