Lord Death Is Now Back Home by Chris novel Chapter 1263

Chapter 1263: The Killer Shall Be Killed

At the same time, a waiter disguised as Fantom entered the private room. Fantom looked at Esther and asked with a smile, "Miss, what kind of drink would you like?"

Esther waved her hand and said, "Sorry, I don't like alcohol." It had to be said, Fantom's disguise was impressive; Esther didn't suspect a thing.

Just then, Harold Jefferson stepped in front of Esther, glaring coldly at Fantom. "Please leave!" he demanded.

Seeing Harold Jefferson, Fantom frowned. Esther asked curiously, "Harold, what are you doing?"

Harold Jefferson replied, "Mrs. Shelby, Mr. Shelby instructed me to protect you, so I won't allow anyone to come near you."

"In that case, I'll leave," Fantom said with a forced smile and turned to go.

In the surveillance room, Chris Shelby watched the screen with a cold smile. No wonder Fantom was ranked among the top ten assassins in the Assassin Alliance; his disguise and acting were both superb.

Suddenly, Chris Shelby saw Esther stand up and prepare to leave. "Huh? Where is Esther going?" His face changed dramatically.

Seeing Esther about to leave, Harold Jefferson immediately followed her. Esther turned to him and said, "Harold, I'm just going to the restroom; you don't need to follow me."

Harold Jefferson looked troubled. "Mrs. Shelby, but Mr. Shelby told me to protect you at all times."

Esther sighed, "It's nothing serious; I'm just going to the restroom."

"Alright," Harold Jefferson reluctantly agreed.

Esther left the private room. Not far away, Fantom smirked and quickly followed her.

After using the restroom, Esther noticed someone following her. She turned around and asked warily, "Why are you following me?"

Fantom chuckled lightly. "Beautiful lady, can we be friends?"

Esther frowned. "Sorry, I'm not interested." She had no good feelings toward men who approached her randomly.

Fantom wasn't angry; he walked closer and said, "Actually, I have something to tell you."

Esther asked suspiciously, "What is it?"

Fantom grinned wickedly. "Today is your unlucky day!"

Esther was momentarily stunned. Before she could react, Fantom pulled out a sharp dagger and lunged at her. Her face turned pale with fear as she screamed.

"Ah!"

Frozen in terror, Esther could only close her eyes in despair as the dagger approached. Fantom's cruel smile widened as he prepared to strike.

Suddenly, a figure descended from above. "Killing someone in front of me? You're underestimating me."

Fantom's face changed dramatically. Before he could react, he was sent flying backward.

In an instant, Shadow stood before Esther. Shadow had been protecting Esther from the shadows all along but wouldn't reveal himself unless necessary.

Chris Shelby approached from a distance. Seeing Chris Shelby, Shadow said calmly, "I'll leave this to you." With that, Shadow disappeared.

Chris Shelby ignored Shadow's departure and walked up to Fantom with a cold smile. "Fantom, your disguise is indeed impressive!"
