Finding Love in the Boss’s Embrace After Divorce novel Chapter 1137

At the moment Alivia found the police, the captain and the other approaching armed police also noticed them.

It had to be said that although Owen deliberately left a passage, he was not someone with strong counter-surveillance abilities. Because the spot he chose to take a break was slightly lower in terrain compared to its surroundings, one could stand slightly higher in the surrounding area with foliage for cover, which allowed him to see everything in front and behind the rock.

Among those who went up the mountain, there was a professional sniper. At this moment, he was positioned on high ground behind Owen, using the dense foliage in front of him to adjust the position of his firearm quietly. He extended the rifle's barrel slightly forward and pressed it down a bit. Then, he narrowed one eye and focused solely on the scope.

They had received instructions during their prior planning that if there was a suspicion of the suspect attempting to escape, they could use firearms.

He would not kill Owen. The target was his leg.

As long as Owen couldn't escape and couldn't harm the hostage, that was enough.

Alivia couldn't locate the sniper's position, but she could see the armed police relatively closer. However, she deliberately avoided their line of sight, fearing that Owen might notice.

Just as everything was ready and the sniper was preparing to shoot, Owen, who had remained still, either sensed something or coincidentally stood up and walked to where Alivia was. He pulled her up and placed her in front of himself as a shield.

When the sniper saw it through the camera, he raised his head with a frown and made a gesture to the captain, indicating that he could not shoot for the time being.

Bullets could not be used casually. Without a good opportunity, he could not act rashly. Otherwise, both sides would suffer.

The captain stared at Owen. Owen was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he carried Alivia to the edge of a cliff.

Although the mountain itself was not high, if one were to fall down that cliff, the human body would not be able to withstand it.
