Facade of Love (Yvette Scott and Idris Young) novel Chapter 440

Fortunately, it did not take long for me to spot Gregory. There were quite a few police officers gathered at the foot of the mountain, presumably from the border area, and some had probably come with them.

Gregory saw that Idris was injured and came over quickly. Sensing our pursuers behind us, he swiftly supported Idris and ran down the mountain.

He was a policeman, so naturally, he had much better stamina than I did. The border area had a unique political situation. With the arrival of many police officers, Lucas' men who had chased us caught up but did not dare to make any reckless moves.

Lucas, Kenneth, and Yara had also arrived. However, when they saw the many police officers, Kenneth, the old fox, hardly said anything and left first.

"Hmph!" Yara snorted, clearly unyielding.

Seeing that there was no room for negotiation, Lucas seemed to suddenly think of something. He took out a remote control and looked at me from a distance. "Yvette, I'll say it one more time. Come back with me."

When I saw the remote control in his hand, I suddenly thought of Kobe. Lucas had mentioned that he had strapped explosives to Kobe's body, and I had not had a chance to confirm whether what Lucas said was true after Kobe's death.

At this moment, I was closest to Kobe. My gaze shifted to his lifeless body, and I caught sight of a slightly bulging square-shaped object around his waist. My heart skipped a beat. So Lucas had actually...
