Upon hearing Wrenna's reply, Adam turned to Harold and told him to leave at once.
Wrenna was momentarily stunned when she saw that Adam had actually agreed to let Harold go. Then, joy filled her heart as she urged, “Hurry up and leave, Harold!”
“Do you truly believe he'll keep his promise and let me go? Don't be so naive, Wrenna. He has hundreds of men surrounding this mansion. He just doesn't want to kill me in front of you, that's all. Besides, I've promised that you, Charlotte, and I would all leave together. I intend to keep my word.”
With that, Harold took out his phone and called Logan.
“Make the move!”
After saying those two words, he hung up.
“Who did you call, Harold?” Wrenna asked in confusion. A sliver of hope rose within her.
However, it quickly faded when she thought about how powerful Adam was.
“Your time is up, you brat! I gave you a chance, but you let it slip through your fingers. Kill him!” Adam yelled, signaling for the subordinates behind him to attack.
At that moment, the sound of whirring helicopters rang out from above the Turner residence.
“What's going on?” Adam asked his subordinates.
Suddenly, a burly man in a black suit rushed in from outside the mansion and shouted, “Things are not looking good, Boss! There are many helicopters in the air, and armed soldiers have surrounded us!”
“What? The military has besieged us?”
Everyone in the mansion was stunned by what the man said.
As for Adam, he was so shocked that he yelped in terror and rushed out in disbelief to see for himself.
Soon, he led his men out of the mansion one after another.
They inadvertently gulped when they saw the scene outside, shock and terror in their eyes.
Meanwhile, those who had stayed outside to surround the mansion were even more alarmed as nearly a hundred helicopters hovered above them, completely hemming them in. Many could barely remain steady on their feet and were shaking like a leaf.
The deafening roar of the helicopters seemed to hammer on their hearts, triggering a sense of fear and uneasiness.
They could also barely open their eyes as the helicopters' rotors stirred up strong gusts of wind that whipped through the air.
However, what terrified them even more was the continuous stream of heavily armed men descending from the helicopters to point their guns at each of them.
Despite the strong winds and the fact that it was already autumn, sweat beaded their foreheads.
All of them had broken into a cold sweat!
Although the men were currently employees at a security company, they were previously gangsters and were no strangers to bloodshed.
Even after switching their line of “work,” they were still constantly involved in such shady business.
Nonetheless, we've never encountered a situation like this before. It's so shocking and frightening! Compared to these armed men, we're no match for them at all!
“Where did all these armed men come from? Judging by their numbers, there must be at least an entire regiment here!” Justin exclaimed after swallowing hard.
Fear washed over him. Oh my god! Someone actually deployed an entire regiment. This is f*cking insane!
Meanwhile, Wrenna's parents hid by the door, too scared to come out.
