Chapter 1426

Bernard’s hand moved with lightning speed, the gun in his grip barking death as he dropped a goon in black with a single shot.

Just as he was about to pivot and target another, red laser dots danced across Eleanor’s body.

At the same moment, the gun in the hand of the black-clad assailant pressed coldly against Eleanor’s temple.

Three controllers, cradling their rifles, emerged slowly from the panic room within the safehouse.

“The terms laid out by Sector 2-5, Mr. Law. Comply, and your wife goes free. Otherwise…”

One of the controllers hadn’t even finished speaking when the goon pushed the gun harder against Eleanor’s head.

“Don’t hurt her!”

Bernard’s heart raced with fear at the mere posturing of the thug. It was clear now that his concern for Eleanor surpassed even his own life.

Even the slightest scratch on her, and he would be beside himself with anxiety.
