Chapter 147

Chapter 147

This day had been long awaited by Asher.

With Malfoy finally within his grasp, he could at last capture both Malfoy and his subordinates in one fell swoop.

Outside, many of his men lay in wait–not just snipers, but also mercenaries he had urgently brought in from abroad overnight.

When Asher had arrived, he’d carefully assessed the situation and confirmed his earlier prediction: Malfoy had few resources left in Britain.

The men here represented almost all of his remaining British operation.

According to the rescue plan Asher had formulated the previous night, if all went smoothly, he could both save Thalia and capture Malfoy along with all his British associates.

However, this plan required him to put himself at risk. If it failed, neither he nor Thalia would survive.

Now, they were on the verge of success.

Then suddenly, an unexpected complication arose.

Asher hadn’t anticipated that Malfoy would send men to kidnap Lucy…

“Save Lucy… Asher, please save Lucy…”

Thalia was still cradled in Asher’s arms. She clutched his collar desperately, her eyes filled with pleading.

Asher’s eyes darkened with conflict.

He had waited so long for this opportunity.

They were in Harwich, on England’s eastern coast in Essex.

The Netherlands lay just across the North Sea.

The helicopter hovered before them. If Malfoy escaped to his Dutch stronghold now, he would have two options–take a sea route to the Netherlands and then return to Russia, or fly directly to the Netherlands before returning to his Russian headquarters. With Malfoy’s drug and arms trafficking operations in the Netherlands, and his main base in Russia, dealing with him in the future would be nearly impossible.

But with Lucy as a hostage, Asher had to consider his options carefully.

Asher lowered his gaze to meet Thalia’s imploring eyes, his heart aching.
