Now that they had successfully captured their target, Ashton planned to take Briar back to the Grant family first.

Interrogating Freddie could wait.

The allure of their wedding night was far more exciting to Ashton than the prospect of interrogating Freddie.

Besides, he had told her two uncles that he was taking Briar out on official business, but they ended up getting their marriage certificate along the way.

They had to go back and tell Briar’s uncles.

Although Ruben and Larry had already verbally accepted him, accepting him and tricking a young woman into secretly getting married were two different things.

“It’s getting late, darling. Should we head home?” Ashton had been holding Briar’s hand tightly ever since Freddie collapsed, afraid she might casually shoot him again.

‘How could Freddie possibly withstand another shot? We can’t let someone like him die so easily, he thought.

Briar looked down at her hand, held tightly by Ashton, then at the nervous looks from Connor and Brandon. She smiled faintly and tossed the gun to Ian. “Alright, let’s go back for now.”

Not giving Briar a chance to change her mind, Ashton immediately led her to the car and waved at Connor and his men, signaling them to quickly get the man out of sight.

Connor glanced at Ian, who was enjoying the drama, and then at Briar, who was reluctantly coaxed into the car by Ashton. He sighed. ‘Having such a capable boss lady is a lot of work sometimes.‘

Ashton stepped on the gas and drove off, ignoring Ian, who hadn’t had time to get in the car.

Briar was amused by Ashton’s tense demeanor. “Ashton, I wasn’t planning on letting Freddie die so

comfortably. So, don’t worry. I won’t shoot them right now.”

Ashton nodded. “I know. It’s our first day of marriage, so we shouldn’t be looking at something so unpleasant. It’s bad luck!”

Briar laughed. “Alright, you have a point. I won’t look.”

The capture was surprisingly smooth, taking less than five hours from start to finish.

If they headed back now, they could still make it in time for dinner at the Grant family.

Briar called her two uncles in advance, telling them they would be home for dinner and had two pieces of good news, which certainly piqued their curiosity.

Ashton didn’t bother clearing out the weapons, leaving them casually on the back seat as he drove into the Grant family. The moment their car pulled into the courtyard, the villa’s security alarm blared sharply.
