Chapter 853 Shot And Jumped Into The Sea

Leonardo’s men had no disrespect for Charles’s men, provoking them repeatedly until they were wholly infuriated.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Three gunshots rang out from downstairs, prompting Leonardo’s men to rush upstairs to report it.

“They injured our men, Boss!”

Upon hearing that, Leonardo immediately loaded his gun and snarled unceremoniously, “You’ve brought this upon yourself, Charles!”

In truth, even if Charles’s men hadn’t made the first move, they would still be accused of doing so because Leonardo had never intended to let Charles leave the place alive from the very beginning.

Of course, Charles was no pushover either. When they searched him, he had already moved. the gun he was carrying someplace else.

He exchanged a glance with Isaac. The latter immediately understood his meaning and tossed a small package over.

hand.

After several rounds of punches and kicks, both of them sustained various injuries. Panting heavily, they separated temporarily.

A hint of admiration showed in Leonardo’s eyes. “I didn’t expect such a remarkable individual to exist in Chanaea. I’ve truly underestimated you.”

Charles didn’t bother wasting his breath with him but delivered another ruthless kick instead.

The longer he remained there, the more disadvantageous it would be for him.

However, he quickly noticed something amiss. Gradually, he felt a loss of strength, and his head began spinning.
