"Ah," the man growled painfully while lying on the ground. His gaze focused on the person who had just attacked him from behind.

Bernard had his guard up and instructed his men to monitor him, suspecting someone was watching his every move.

When he went after seeing Jedrick, he feigned being terrified in order to appear convincing to the person following him.

"Boss was right when he warned me," Bernard snarled, recognizing the man on the ground as Luke.

Luke glanced at Bernard with misty eyes before losing consciousness.

"Tie him in the basement and make sure he doesn't leave alive after I flee," Bernard told the two guards, who promptly grabbed up Luke and took him away.

Bernard knew he had to act swiftly after realizing his every action was being closely monitored. He had to leave as soon as possible before another person arrived.

He almost continued to enlighten him about the most recent update Luke had given him concerning Bernard.

Kaden was already disappointed, but on Gabriel's instruction, he called Luke again, and the call went unanswered.

Luke was not an irresponsible teammate, but the delay did not sit well with him.
