Chapter 1788: I'll Make the Exchange

Luther shouted, "Put the child down. You're surrounded. The people you brought will soon be subdued by my men."

Just as he spoke, a column of mercenaries rushed in, fully armed. After seeing Luther, they reported, "Mr. Warner, we have taken control of the situation outside.”

Several other mercenaries restrained the remaining black-clad individuals who had been stunned inside the house. They tightly encircled Cloud.

Cloud held Anderson in front of himself and laughed maniacally. "I don't care about those people outside. With him in my hands, you can't stop me."

Luther knew that Cloud wasn't just bluffing. He knew that the leader of OGW was skilled in ninjutsu, practically disappearing among a hundred people. Most importantly, Luther couldn't let Anderson suffer any harm. He shouted, "I know you, Cloud. Let's negotiate. You name your conditions, and I can fulfill them. Whatever Athena can give, I can give you."

"Heh," Cloud sneered, "Sorry, I'm not interested. I only fight; I don't negotiate.”

He held Anderson in his arms and took a few steps closer. "If you don't want to harm the child, step aside."

The mercenaries were itching to move forward, wanting to press on. Luther quickly raised his arm to stop them. "Don't move forward. Stay where you are."

The mercenaries held their guns, watching vigilantly.

Luther continued to persuade Cloud, "You're a man. Holding a child hostage doesn't reflect well on your reputation. Besides, Athena has been sent to Christian's place. You don't necessarily need to obey Athena in everything. Give the child back to me, and I'll find a way to satisfy your demands."
