Chapter 190: The Extraction

Under Sebastian’s leadership, the shadow guards moved towards the target as soon as the convoy stopped in front of the Cleveland Police South Bank station. Their target was fixed, but they needed to pinpoint the exact location around 53 to 57 Briggs Avenue.

They moved fast in the shadows. When they reached the geolocation provided by Eleanor, they started searching the nearby houses to match the face they had seen in the photo. But after searching a few houses, they couldn’t find any trace of their target.

After searching for a few minutes, they finally found her in an outbuilding of a nearby house. Georgia Doyle was sitting on a chair, her head tilted to one side, seemingly asleep. Her hands and feet were tied to the chair.

They proceeded according to the plan. Raphael went to search for hidden traps or any potential danger. Alaric and Elias went to find a safe and swift exit path.

Sebastian remained in the outbuilding with Georgia, to ensure her safety.

After a couple of minutes, Raphael came back. The other two selected a route for their safe exit and informed the team. They broke the boundary of the garden silently, so that Sebastian could take Georgia straight to the road.

They informed their situation to Eleanor and waited for the rescue team to arrive.

Inspector Reynolds took the beautiful paper box, which clearly looked like a gift box... and opened it. He was used to receiving presents, so he didn’t mind getting another. His mind anticipated a generous offering from the beautiful woman sitting in front of him.

But the moment he opened the box, he froze. He stared at it, his mouth hanging open.

Seeing his reaction, Eleanor spoke, "There is one hundred thousand pounds in the box. This is my thank you to you... for your time, mental distress, inconvenience, disruption of work, and of course... the coffee."
