Betrayed, Then Back For Blood

Chapter 216

“Help!”

Suddenly, a high–pitched scream rang out, making Brandon immediately put away his phone and rush to Briar’s side, using his bulk to shield her.

He thought the bodyguards had found a chance to turn the tables on his men.

However, when Brandon saw what was really happening, his mouth twitched uncontrollably.

Armed with nothing but a military knife and shielded by Briar’s remarkably accurate gunfire, Sasha managed to slip out of the lab and make her way right back to Hayden’s side.

Now, that military knife was pressed against Hayden’s neck, forcing his bodyguards to hold their fire, terrified that they might hit Hayden by mistake.

Brandon glanced at Sasha’s sharp moves and icy stare, then at Briar’s calm face. No matter how he looked at it, the two had the same vibe.

So Brandon asked uncertainly, “Miss Jennings, is she… one of your subordinates?”

Briar nodded without hesitation. “Yeah, after I found out who was behind my kidnapping, I had Sasha get close to Hayden on purpose.”

Brandon could only give her a thumbs–up. “That’s so like you, Miss Jennings. Truly impressive.”

With that kind of cunning and those tricks up her sleeve, if anyone was dumb enough to mess with Briar again, and she teamed up with Ashton, who was equally scheming, that poor soul might as well start digging their own grave.

The bodyguards didn’t dare to step forward, but they couldn’t back away either So the three sides were stuck in a strange but stable standoff.

It was Sasha who finally broke the deadlock.

“Briar, how do you want me to kill him?” she asked.

She traced the military knife back and forth across Hayden’s neck, her tone as casual as if she were just talking about slaughtering poultry.

Before Briar could even respond, Hayden was already freaking out. “No, please, don’t kill me. I have money. Take whatever you want, just please don’t

kill me.”
