Chapter 407 Gather Everyone Here.

“I’m still in your hands, why are you hesitating? Haven’t you noticed they’ve stopped daring to shoot?” Calista’s calm voice broke through the chaos, catching Horatio off guard.

In a sudden surge of anger, Horatio shouted, “You b*tch! Did you orchestrate this? You think you can just walk away from this chaos? Even if it kills me, I’ll make sure you go down with me!” His voice was filled with fury as he gripped Calista’s arm tightly.

From a distance, Kurt was leading a group toward them, his presence marked by a cold, commanding tone. “The game is over. Traitors have no right to live in this world.” His icy declaration sent a shiver down Horatio’s spine.

“Don’t come any closer!” Horatio yelled back, his fury undiminished. He had invested everything in capturing Calista, primarily to save his own skin after severing ties with the Ingram family. Now, with nothing left but his life, if Kurt meant to kill him, he wouldn’t let Calista live either.

With that, he disengaged the safety on his pistol, his eyes red with rage and fear, and threatened, “If you take one more step forward, I swear we’ll both meet our end!”

Kurt stopped in his tracks, sensing the genuine desperation in Horatio’s voice. But he pondered momentarily, It doesn’t matter much if Calista was harmed, but her demise would render her useless….

As Kurt paused, Calista lowered her voice, leaning in to speak to Horatio. “If I had a way to make all his people perish right here, would you be willing to cooperate?”

Horatio, taken aback by her proposal, struggled to find words.
