“No!” Kathleen stared at Samuel with all seriousness. “Do not come here!”

Samuel gazed at Wyatt. “I make a much better hostage than she does. Remember how your father and brother were thrown behind bars? Even the leaders here have to show me respect. You’ll have an easier time escaping by holding me captive instead of her.”

Wyatt knew he would have a tough time getting out of there that day. Kathleen was too cunning. On the other hand, Samuel was injury-ridden, so Wyatt reckoned Samuel would not dare to do anything foolish.

“Okay.” Wyatt nodded in agreement.

“No!” Kathleen glared at Samuel. “I do not agree!”

Samuel gazed at her tenderly. “I’ll be fine. Move along now.”

Kathleen took a deep breath. “How much more suffering do you plan to let yourself endure?”

Samuel was stunned.

Tears rolled down Kathleen’s cheeks. “You’ve harmed yourself previously and almost lost your life. Then, your hand was crippled because of me, not to mention the injuries to your legs. That’s enough, Samuel. That’s truly enough. You’ve sufficiently redeemed yourself!”

His heart ached as he looked at her. “I’m really fine. Please, don’t cry.”

He ambled forward.

Kathleen bit her lip. “Wyatt!”

“What’s the matter?” Wyatt narrowed his eyes.

“Go to hell!” She bellowed angrily.

Kathleen suddenly turned around and stabbed his abdomen with a dagger.

Wyatt was dumbfounded.

She grasped his gun-wielding hand, gave it a forceful twist, and the gun instantaneously slipped through his fingers.

Samuel’s reflexes were quick. He grabbed the gun with his left hand, took aim, and fired three consecutive shots at Wyatt.

Little did Wyatt anticipate things to take such a sudden turn. His eyes were still widened in utter disbelief when his body fell to the ground.

Samuel walked up to Kathleen’s side and pulled her into his embrace. “Are you all right? Did you sustain any injuries?”

She shook her head while glowering at him. “You’re crazy! You’re not allowed to do something like this again!”

The situation would have turned dire if I did not prepare myself in advance.

“Silly girl. I was informed through the phone when Wyatt entered earlier. I’ve already assigned a sniper to standby at the opposite skyscraper. The sniper was ready to end his life with one shot if he moved,” he explained.
