Her Mysterious Mogul Hubby (Charlotte and Zachary) novel Chapter 1998

“What?” the pilot asked in bewilderment.

“Circumvent it and take off from the adjacent runway. Hurry!” Chrono barked out the order swiftly.

“Huh?” The pilot was dumbfounded.

“That's impossible.”

“Why? Just do it!” Chrono pressed the pistol against his head.

The pilot could only do what he was told, but as he was about to switch runways, the silver private jet glided in their direction, threatening to crash

into them.

The plane couldn't be steered away in time, and the expression on the pilot’s face resembled a deer caught in headlights.

Chrono knew he was no match for Danrique and immediately pivoted on his heels to hold Francesca hostage.

Meanwhile, the chief steward had opened the door to release Francesca when Chrono was preoccupied. He wouldn’t have any incentive to stay on the plane that way.

However, as soon as the plane door opened, other passengers rushed out in a frenzy and blocked the exit.

Francesca couldn't make it out and was caught by Chrono.

“Get out of the way!” He fired a single shot at the crowd.

One passenger was hit and collapsed on the ground, fresh blood pouring from the gunshot wound.

The others screamed in terror, huddling in a corner and afraid to make one wrong move.

Don't shoot!” Francesca stopped him.

Chrono ignored her and forcefully hauled her off the plane to beat a hasty retreat.

He was obstructed after a few feet by a human wall of the Lindberg family's bodyguards.

Without releasing Francesca, he turned around to escape in another direction but stopped in his tracks.
