Dark Revenge Of An Unwanted Wife: The Twins Are Not Yours!

Chapter 342: Rain Of Bullets II

Everything became messy and chaotic afterwards. And everyone in the room dodged for cover behind whatever manner of shield they could lay their hands on.

There were shouts in the room, not of pain really, but from commands—Ewan’s men going further to act as shields for the Thorne couple, for Athena. But Athena’s mind was on the havoc being wrecked outside. Eric and Shawn. Were they dead? Had they been shot down?

Her heart beat escalated with a mixture of pain and anger. She couldn’t lose her friends. But she was helpless in the onslaught of bullets. She hadn’t budgeted that they would have company this morning. Who was feeding the enemy information? Who could be the betrayer within their ranks?

She gritted her teeth as she counted the names of the people she had trusted with information, people who were with her here. And yet, she couldn’t place the tag on any one of them. Maybe one of Ewan’s men?

With their location still being rocked with bullets, she turned to meet Ewan, only to see him talking into the phone. What now?

Ignoring the plea of the man guarding her, she hurried, making sure to keep herself low so as not to be hit by the flying bullets, toward his side.

"Who are you talking with?" Her voice came out sterner than she had anticipated, accusatory.

Ewan frowned. "What? You think I am the one giving away our location? Do you want to speak with Spider then?"

Athena swallowed the shame that enveloped her. But why was she ashamed?

Was it now a crime to suspect him? She wondered as she gestured for him to put the phone on loudspeaker. She didn’t think Spider knew her well enough to accept instructions from her. And why was Ewan calling Spider? Reinforcements? They would take so long to get here!

"Spider, you can continue speaking... what were you saying?"
