In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 597

"I have no idea what you're talking about. Release her now!" Benjamin exclaimed.

Surprised by Benjamin's bold assertion, Brodie shot him a piercing glare and retorted coldly, "Well, if that's the case, don't expect any mercy from me."

With Grace held hostage, Brodie scanned the surroundings and declared, "I know this woman isn't just some ordinary girl. I demand to speak to the person in charge here!"

Stepping forward, Danzel looked Brodie in the eye and spoke sternly, "You've been on our wanted list for years, Brodie.

"It's surprising to see that you have the guts to show your face in Pamore and are hiding behind a woman like a coward. You're truly despicable!"

Brodie snickered in response. "Ah, Chief Bradley, always a pleasure to see you. You know, you wouldn't have managed to catch me if it hadn't been for that kid, not even with a hundred plainclothesmen on my tail.

"Too bad I still don't know his name. Pass along a message for me. Tell him to come out and face me if he's got any guts!"

Even as Grace gasped for breath, she couldn't help but find a twisted sense of honor in Brodie's actions.

Danzel asserted, "In that case, you'll have to come with us. I'll let him interrogate you personally."

"Zip it! Get three cars ready, and get us out of the country! Otherwise, I'll end this woman!" Brodie threatened and tightened his grip on Grace, whose face paled at his forceful hold.

Clenching his fists tightly, Xander instructed, "Do as he says, Chief Bradley."

Upon getting no immediate response from Danzel, one of the policemen behind him spoke up. "Mr. Fulton, you might not be aware, but Brodie has taken lives.

"He's highly skilled and holds the top spot on our wanted list. If we let him go, there's little chance of catching him next time!"

"I don't care about that. Grace is in his hands. She must stay alive! Just do as he says!" Xander ordered, his frustration evident in his tone.

Just as everyone was hesitating, Danzel gestured to his subordinates and said, "Do as Brodie says."
