A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Kenneth's eyes.
“We've come this far. How could we possibly let them leave?” he murmured softly.
Immediately understanding the implication, Luke looked at the people following him and made a hand gesture.
“Boss, let's go and surround them,” Luke said.
Kenneth nodded.
As soon as their car started, people had already rushed up and surrounded them.
In the car, the driver glanced outside, his face expression changing instantly. “Boss.”
Upon hearing the sound, Boss lifted his gaze to look outside.
However, upon seeing a circle of people standing outside, his expression changed instantly.
“Boss, what should we do?” the driver asked.
“Ask them what they want,” the boss said.
At that moment, the car window slid down. The driver looked at the crowd gathered around and asked, “Who are you? What do you want?”
Luke looked at him, a faint smile playing on his lips. “What do you think?”
“Do you want money?” the driver asked.
“Money? Your Vermillion Base is so poor. What money can you possibly offer?” Luke couldn't help but mock. At this moment, he felt as if he were like Kenneth and Dave.
He could accurately identify who they were, and Boss immediately knew Luke was there with a purpose.
“What on earth do you want?” the driver asked.
Luke answered, “Our boss would like to meet your boss.”
“Who is your boss?”
“Wouldn't you know once you get out of the car?” asked Luke.
“What if we don't go down?” the driver counter-questioned.
At that moment, Luke lowered his eyes and smiled charmingly, wickedly. Instantly, the people surrounding them raised their guns, aiming at them.
Upon seeing the situation, the people in the car immediately raised their guns, aiming outside, ready to stand guard.
However, just then, a person not far away suddenly raised a massive weapon, aiming it at them.
Looking at them, Luke said, “It seems you're refusing to give up until you see an irreversible defeat.” As he spoke, he cocked his neck slightly, gesturing behind him.
At that moment, someone suddenly appeared, carrying a gigantic weapon.
If that kind of arrow were to hit the car, it would explode instantly, leaving them with no chance to escape.
Upon seeing this scene, everyone in the car was stunned.
When faced with death, no one was fearless.
Seeing them all fall silent, Luke looked at them and asked, “So, are you up for the challenge?”
“Who's your boss?”
“Why don't you get out of the car and find out?” Luke asked in return.
The person in the car hesitated again and again.
Luke knew they didn't have much time. He spoke up directly, “I'll count to three. If you don't get out of the car, then this will shoot!” As he spoke, he made a shooting gesture.
The person in the car remained silent.
“One.”
The people in the car look at each other.
“Two.”
The moment those words left his mouth, Kenneth's gaze changed instantly. “You're not worthy to mention her name.”
Confronted with his threats, Boss didn't care at all. “You get so angry just by me mentioning her name? Then do you know I used to live with her in the same house, spending every day together—”
Suddenly, Kenneth stepped forward and grabbed Boss by the throat.
Seeing the situation, Boss' men immediately raised their guns, aiming at Kenneth. At the same time, countless other guns were also pointed at them.
Right then, the atmosphere instantly became tense.
Once the conflict escalated, no one would stand to gain.
Boss looked at Kenneth, and when he saw the anger in the latter's eyes, he smiled.
“Are you angered?” Boss asked. Despite being gripped by the neck, there wasn't a trace of fear in his eyes.
Kenneth smirked coldly, “Boss, you don't need to provoke me with your words. I simply don't care. Besides, aren't you just making a fool of yourself by saying that?”
Boss' face stiffened a bit, then he continued to ask, “If that's the case, then why are you upset?” He asked, pausing after each word, seemingly struggling a bit.
“I find your words too filthy.”
Boss remained silent, slowly raising his wrist, intending to grasp Kenneth's hand. Just as Kenneth was about to react, his gaze suddenly fell on the chain worn on Boss' wrist.
That chain looks familiar. Kenneth knew that it belonged to Natasha. I just never imagined that Boss would actually wear it.
Kenneth's gaze sharpened subtly, and he reached out to pull off the chain from Boss' wrist.
Seeing the situation, the look in Boss' eyes immediately changed. He reached out his hand to snatch it back. “Give it back to me.”
“You're not worthy,” Kenneth said, tucking the item into his clothing. He then looked at Boss and asked, “Boss, how about I give you a chance now? Do fancy a trade?”
Boss stared intently at Kenneth without saying a word.
“Hand over the antidote, and I'll leave your body intact. How does that sound?” Kenneth asked him, emphasizing each word.
