The cabin erupted with piercing screams as chaos unfolded. A powerful gust

of wind swept through the aircraft, shattering the glass windows and

creating a whirlwind that instantly sucked everything into the abyss outside.

Emmanuel remained anchored in place, while the other passengers flailed

helplessly against the overwhelming force.

Observing their frantic struggle, he recognized them for what they truly were:

ordinary assassins, woefully unprepared for the situation. Seizing the

Ethan sighed, a flicker of unease crossing his features. “I didn’t expect the

plane to take off early either. We’ll have to address this once we land. Let’s

hope for a safe journey ahead.”

Chester, overhearing their exchange, felt a wave of humiliation wash over

him. He coldly interjected, “Mr. Hale, I am your personal bodyguard. I can
