Chapter 317

The two men swiftly got to work, moving so efficiently that it was hard to determine who was ahead. Sheena, unfamiliar with firearm assembly, found herself dazzled by the rapid actions. However, her gaze remained fixed on Elijah.

He was too composed. Despite claiming minimal experience, Elijah’s skilled actions suggested muscle memory. It was impossible to rival Nathaniel in firearm assembly without years of practice.

Sheena stared at Elijah, her expression growing increasingly serious.

On the other side, Nathaniel sensed Sheena’s unwavering attention on Elijah, never once on himself. As they reached the final piece, he deliberately paused for half a second. In that brief moment, Elijah had already completed the assembly, raising the gun with a cold determination, targeting Nathaniel’s forehead, a murderous glint in his eyes.

Sheena noticed his actions, almost instantly shouting, “Elijah, don’t!”

Elijah hesitated, but he did not move.

“Put it down, that’s an order!”

Across from him, Nathaniel’s gaze was provocative.

Elijah bit his lip, the command sending a shiver through him, an unbearable pain piercing his entire body. After a brief struggle, he reluctantly lowered the gun, his face pale with defeat. Nathaniel, however, grinned. “Congratulations, you won the game but lost her. I told you. You’re just a pet who obeys commands. It’s time for you to step aside.”
