Lord Death Is Now Back Home by Chris novel Chapter 1172

Chapter 1172: The Kidnapping of Esther

Wesley Eastman never failed to get what he wanted, from childhood to this day. But having his arm twisted and broken by Chris Shelby ignited a fire of revenge that he could not quench. As Chris walked away coldly, Eastman's eyes darted with a frosty murderous intent.

"Chris Shelby, since you are so ignorant of death, do not blame me for being ruthless!" Eastman swore, his voice thick with menace.

After teaching Wesley Eastman a lesson, Chris returned to the diner. "Chris, you're back?" Juliette asked as he entered.

"Yeah," Chris nodded, his tone nonchalant. "Just Wes Eastman, barely took a moment to handle."

Juliette and Esther showed no surprise; it was clear to them that Wesley was no match for Chris. After finishing their meal, the group went home, settling back into their everyday lives filled with the simple joys of family and leisure.

Meanwhile, Wesley was plotting in a luxurious presidential suite of a five-star hotel. "This is Esther's photo. Your task is simple - bring her to me," he commanded, handing over a photograph of Esther to ten master-level practitioners, all fiercely loyal and secretly trained by the Eastman family for years.

The ten nodded, needing no further instruction, and quickly left to carry out their orders.

As evening descended, Esther and Juliette exited their office building. Chris hadn't come to pick Esther up, staying home with Hope who'd been shaken by a previous kidnapping incident. Suddenly, an ear-piercing screech of brakes filled the air. A van skidded to a halt in front of them, and ten master-level practitioners swiftly descended.

"Esther, watch out!" Juliette yelled, rushing to her defense, but despite being Chris Shelby's sister and herself a master-level practitioner, she could not fend off ten assailants on her own.
