Alessio glanced at the red dot on his tablet. “Mr. Casalini, the signal’s close.”

As he spoke, more cars pulled up, and a group of bodyguards spilled out.

Richard’s eyes swept toward Stephanie’s hiding spot, and he said, “Search for her.” His gaze was cold and piercing, sending a chill down Stephanie’s spine.

As Stephanie saw how many people were arriving, her heart pounded. She wanted to call Sebastian again, worried he hadn’t brought enough backup.

“Quick, search everywhere,” Theodore instructed the group.

In an instant, the team fanned out, most heading down the path while a few moved in Stephanie’s direction.

She gritted her teeth, fuming inside. ‘Richard is ruthless–willing to turn on even his own brother. What wouldn’t he do?‘

She reached for her phone to call Sebastian without a second thought. But just as she was about to pull it out, headlights from another direction suddenly flashed, making Stephanie instinctively turn her head away.

Richard and Sebastian had come face–to–face. Stephanie tensed, expecting a shootout, but Sebastian’s car rolled to a smooth stop. He stepped out, facing Richard, who was lounging on the hood of his own car, looking utterly relaxed.

Sebastian squinted, pulled out his gun, and fired at Richard with a sharp bang.

The bullet grazed past Richard’s ear. In the quiet night, he could almost hear his hair snapping from the bullet.

Theodore gasped and hurried over to check on Richard. Hiding in the bushes, Stephanie felt her heart tightened.

But Richard stayed put on the hood, as still as a mountain, a mocking smile aimed at Sebastian..

“Wow, wow. You’ve been chasing me around the world for two years, and now you’re angrier than I am?” Richard teased.

Sebastian gave him a hard look and pulled out his phone to call Stephanie.

The phone rang from the bushes nearby, and Stephanie snapped out of her daze. She popped up and peeked out.
