Chapter 475 Hostage Situation

Oliver dared not fight back against Horace.

The contempt was clear in Horace’s eyes as he held the scalpel against Tobias’s throat, seething, “If

you want to save him, tell the production crew to stop with these special effects.

“Did you think all this pretending would stop me from noticing the police cruisers pulling up outside? I

He dragged Oliver to where the cameras were and demanded, “I’ll make my request simple: don’t

come

into the building. For every outsider that comes in, I’ll kill one hostage!”

The production crew flew into a panic. After watching Dalton enter the building, Dexter thundered,

“Who recruited that non–celebrity guest?”

“M- Me…” A bespectacled intern raised his hand timidly, adjusting his glasses. “In my defense, he

stated

on his resumé that he was a surgeon by profession, and I didn’t doubt it, so I…”

The Special Operations Team was ready to strike. Their leader ordered, “Be careful, the criminal has a

knife. I repeat, the criminal has a knife, Do not let him hurt the hostages.”

At this point, a long length of police tape had cordoned the hospital off. The Special Operations Team

had also evacuated the production set.

Dexter stopped a police officer on duty and asked anxiously, “Excuse me, officer, but what is the

suspect

wanted for?”

“illegal organ trading and serial homicide,” the officer answered. He put up a hand and said, “You have

get out of here. His countersurveillance and hypervigilance make him extremely dangerous.

“The man is medically qualified, and that’s why it took us this long to track him down. We reckon we

might need some time before we can wrap things up here.”

Dexter’s jaw dropped when he heard this. He gripped a fistful of his hair and shot a withering look at

the intern. “You certainly know how to pick them.”

Talk about a diverse cast. Who would have thought that a homicidal maniac and evil spirits would

become guests on a game show?

Dexter shuddered at the thought of being held accountable for any casualties inside the children’s

hospital.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Lyons, I… I’ye checked the statistics, and the streaming numbers for our show are still

climbing.” The intern showed Dexter his phone screen. “See? The audience loves how unscripted the

storyline is.

“They find the plot twists refreshing, and the praise just keeps flooding in!”

Chapter 475 Hostage Situation

Dexter wanted to sob. He didn’t care about the popularity of the show. He just wanted everyone Inside.

that building to be safe.

Meanwhile, Horace stood in the dim room on the second floor of the children’s hospital as he looked up

at the cameras.

A crazed gleam shone in his eyes as he said, “I heard this show is all the rage. I’m sure a lot of people

are watching this right now.

“Let me go free, or ill take all these celebrities down with me. At least I’ll have company in hell.”

Oliver was on the brink of wetting his pants. He cast a desperate look at Tobias, silently begging the

latter

to save him.

However, Wynter surprised everyone by stepping forward. She paid no mind to Oliver as she gave

Horace

a cursory look. “Guess you’re not the person the twins are looking for.”

Horace couldn’t believe Wynter could look so at ease even when he was holding a knife to Oliver’s

neck.

“Your acting’s pretty good for a newble,” Horace remarked with a sneer. “Stop going on about the twins.

Patience isn’t my strong suit, so one of you had better go out and tell the production crew to let me go

free, or I’ll-

Before he could finish his threat, Wynter’s hand darted out and grabbed his wrist. “If you’re not the one

the twins are after, then stop getting in the way of their revenge and go stand in the corner!”

Horace gaped at her. He hadn’t even gotten his thoughts in order before he heard his wrist cracking.

He was in so much pain that he was forced to release Oliver,

Wynter wasted no time kicking Horace into the corner after that.
