The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection

Chapter 493

Felix had no idea how to get to Shunnington University, which was why he hadn't realized anything.

However, the driver soon withdrew a hand from the steering wheel. Reaching toward his abdomen, he pulled out a handgun, pointing it directly at Felix.

"Don't even think about moving an inch. I've killed more than just one person."

In the back seat, Nancy was terrified, even though she couldn't see the gun. With the car speeding along, jumping out wasn't an option.

"So, you're a killer. I'm guessing this cab isn't yours either?" Felix remarked calmly.

The driver smirked. "You're pretty sharp. The real driver is in the trunk. He's dead as a doornail. I was planning to grab some random passenger, but then you flagged me down."

As he spoke, the driver glanced at Nancy in the rearview mirror, licking his lips. "Damn, this chick is a knockout. Way better than the ones I've paid for. I'm going to take my time with her." Felix's expression turned odd. Of all the people to run into, he had to find a murderer.

"What you'll be enjoying," Felix said coldly, "is the full weight of the law."

In the blink of an eye, Felix threw a punch, his other hand darting out to snatch the gun. Then, he grabbed the wheel and slammed the driver's foot to stomp on the brake.
