Chapter 1261 Help Arrives

River narrowed his eyes and uttered, "It's you." He then charged at Blood Rose. "I've been wanting to settle the score with you."

On the contrary, Albert said nothing before jumping into the fray.

Meanwhile, Olivia had never seen Albert fight before, and she had assumed royalty like him would never be that good in martial arts since they were born with a silver spoon in their mouths. However, his clean swings and decisive strikes shattered her impression of him.

With their help, Jewel and Olivia gradually went from floundering to gaining the upper hand.

In the meantime, Blood Rose knew that there was no way she could kill them today, so she did not stick around for long. She swiftly threw a smoke bomb the size of a chicken egg before dragging the assassin on the ground away with her.

As everyone did not know the purpose of the projectile, they had all instinctively dodged it. It was only later that they realized it was just a smoke bomb. This infuriated Jewel, and she quickly cleared the air of smoke to give chase to Blood Rose and the others.

"Don't chase after her. We don't need to deal with her right away," Olivia shouted after her.

However, these words did not sit well with Jewel. What's the likelihood of running into Blood Rose again if we blow this opportunity? Nonetheless, she knew that Olivia's advice was for her benefit, and if she had rushed over, she would have been ambushed just as she had been previously. Hence, she sighed and swallowed her displeasure before returning to Olivia, her eyes twinkling with concern. "Are you okay?"

After hearing this, Olivia had to clench her jaw tightly to get through the pain after Blood Rose flung her through the air several times. How can I be okay? However, her statement contradicted that. "I'm fine. What about you?"

Jewel shook her head. "I'm fine as well. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have been so impulsive."

"It's fine. As long as you're okay," Olivia replied.

Then, Jewel apologetically looked at Albert and River. "What about you two, Mr. Bleu?"

At this moment, Albert was wiping the blood off the corner of his mouth and said, "I'm fine."

"Should we report this to the police?" River asked.

"Yes. With the threat of the police hanging over the assassins' heads, they will not be as bold," Olivia declared.

"It's all my fault. Let's get ourselves checked out," Jewel said remorsefully.

The group then returned to the restaurant, greeted warmly by the owner, who quickly apologized, "I'm so sorry for what happened. We apologize for the poor oversight of our staff. We will fully cooperate with you, be it in a police investigation or in terms of compensation."

The restaurant owner was a Criecian man in his forties who looked slightly overweight but was otherwise a nice guy. Furthermore, it would be quite a stretch to demand the restaurant take full responsibility for the situation when it was evident that the waiter had done the deed of his own accord out of greed.

Nevertheless, Olivia did not express her thoughts but stated coldly, "We've called the police."
