Chapter 264:

Meanwhile, in Claelia, on the route to the airport, Hamilton was seated to Rhys’ right.

Always curious about the Sanderson family’s recently reconnected daughter, Hamilton kept up with the online chatter whenever possible.

As he saw the unanimous change of opinion, he suddenly had a realization.

He turned around, wanting to report to Rhys, when a sudden loud noise interrupted his thoughts.

Gunshots rang out, startling Hamilton as he peered out the window to see their convoy, usually guarded by bodyguards, now overrun by enemies.

“Mr. Green, it’s Karina.”

Hamilton grabbed a handgun from the back seat and began firing out the window, quickly identifying the hostile vehicles.

“There are four enemy cars, and Karina’s is right up front.”

Rhys’ brow creased slightly as he surveyed their surroundings.

A bridge loomed ahead, and Rhys’ gaze turned icily focused.

“Ahead is the bridge. There’s an eighty percent chance they’ll make their move there. Zahir, speed up and try to get past them,” Rhys instructed.

Zahir Dixon, seated behind the wheel, furrowed his brow as he surveyed their enemies.

“That won’t help. They’re deliberately blocking us. We can’t shake them off before the bridge.”

“Then we jump!” Rhys ordered.

Zahir accelerated toward the bridge, unlocked all the car doors, and sharply turned the steering wheel, slowing just enough to crash through the wooden railing. The car teetered over the river for a moment, and as the doors flung open, the three occupants jumped into the water below.

“Dammit! These sly foxes!” Karina slammed her fists against the steering wheel in frustration. She drew her handgun, aiming at Rhys and the others, and began firing recklessly.

While firing relentlessly, she lost control of her own vehicle.

“Boom!” An explosion erupted, sparks scattering as Karina’s pursuit ended in disaster.

“Aaron, my love, I’m coming to join you,” she murmured with a slight smile.

“I’ve shot that man. I’ve avenged you.”

In the river, Rhys and Zahir reached the safety of a large rock under the bridge.

“Where’s Hamilton?” Rhys asked.

Taking a moment to assess their situation, Rhys and Zahir realized something was wrong.

Glancing back into the river, they saw Hamilton, barely conscious and sinking, surrounded by blood-tainted water.

They quickly swam toward him.

At that moment, backup forces arrived, and Karina’s remaining accomplices were eliminated in their vehicles.
