Exploiting Both Sides


    ?


    The hall was littered with countless corpses, devoid of the luxury it had when we first entered. It was now drenched in blood. Those who could stand up against the attackers were few. We were outnumbered, facing a dangerously precarious situation.


    Cane leaned against the pir on our side, gasping for breath. He looked toward us and said, "Mr. As, I''ll cover you. Take Mrs. Chloe out through the rear hall."


    Before As could respond, we heard Ste''s triumphantughter echoing in the hall.


    "Are you guys trying to leave? Forget about it. Chloe, how does it feel? Exciting, right? Today, you won''t be leaving here alive. Do you regret everything you..."


    Before she could finish her words, As fired a shot, and her scream abruptly ceased.


    I clenched my teeth in frustration, cursing myself for not having a gun.


    As tightened his grip on my arm and murmured, "Hmph. Today, her fate is in her own hands."


    Suddenly, the gunfire outside intensified, while the shooting from inside seemed to decrease significantly.


    As''s tense muscles rxed slightly, and he let out a sigh of relief against the pir.


    "Reinforcements?" I asked As.


    He smirked and nodded toward the exit leading to the rear hall. "Darling, we''ll leave from there together."


    As he spoke, he nodded toward the rear hall entrance.


    Just then, from the corner of my eye, I saw Navi who had crawled to the wall, suddenly stand up. He swayed unsteadily, but with a shaky hand, he pressed something, and the wall slowly cracked open.


    I stared in disbelief at As, who also seemed surprised. But he quickly regained hisposure as he eximed, "Secret passage."


    "Is he trying to escape?" I was astonished.


    Navi was about to move toward the wall when a crisp gunshot rang out. Navi''s body staggered, froze in ce for a few seconds, then fell backward with a loud thud.


    The sound was shocking.


    I saw Anya raise her hands with a gun, staring nkly. It was obvious that she had fired the shot.


    At that moment, Dn leaped up.


    Seeing Anya stupefied, he rushed


    over and tackled her behind a row of sofas. Gunshots followed, and I was


    terrified. If it weren''t for Dn'' W


    quick reaction, Anya would have been shot.


    The little girl had finally avenged her parents with her own hands.


    Meanwhile, the wall had opened to reveal a door. I heard Mird shout, "Ms. Ste, hurry and go in."


    But I didn''t see him anywhere.


    After he finished speaking, I saw


    Ste quickly move toward the door. Mird immediately raised his gun and fired a shot at Ste''s leg. Ste screamed in pain, fell to the ground, and blood gushed out.


    "Mird! Y-You''re betraying us?" Ste roared angrily.


    "Fuck your ''betrayal.'' I''ve never been


    on your side. And now that the old


    man is dead, you dare to provoke


    e


    me? You bitch, who do you think you are? You''re nothing but a useless woman!" Mird eximed angrily.


    Then, he grabbed Ste and held her by the neck, shouting to the people outside who were still charging in, "If you move, I''ll kill her."? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    But they paid no attention. It seemed that the outsiders were truly ruthless.


    Mird let go of Ste, pushed her away, and quickly rolled behind a pir. He shouted at me, "Mrs. Chloe, hurry and go in. This leads directly outside. Let''s go."


    As he finished speaking, there was suddenly a loud explosion.


    It was over.


    It was already 7 p.m.
