Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 212

It was obvious that Philip's men were unable to fight the mercenaries' severe and well-trained attack. One after the other, his men were defeated and fell down in no time. Shawn stood there and watched them fight. Suddenly, he burst out laughing. He was amused by the bloodbath. The XK Intelligence Agency mercenary stood beside him, shocked by the inhumane laugh.

From the moment the killing began, Shawn had not averted his eyes. He was absorbed into the fight, which was now becoming more and more thrilling and it fascinated him. After a short gunfight, the mercenaries were no longer using their weapons. They started tussling with Philip's men, who were now utterly scared and distressed by the fight. But as soon as the killing started, there was no way they could escape. The mercenaries also made a perimeter around the place, pushing back anyone who struggled to break through. There was not the slightest hope for Philip's people. They were all but doomed.

The killing did not last long. At the end, everyone in the perimeter were down except Philip himself. Some of the injured were crawling on the ground on their bruised hands and knees, still struggling to escape with their life. The rest were either dead, or unconscious or just too injured to get up again.

"Oops, what cruelty! Do you think Brian would be mad?" Shawn mocked. He was very much intrigued by the sight which was unfolded in front of him. His enchanting eyes filled with indescribable thrill and obsession. "Looks like Little Brian is far more cruel than Richie. No doubt he could defeat anybody who stands in his way. He was born to rule and dominate," he replied to his own question.

As he stood there, watching the fight come to a close, Shawn's mind drifted away to how Brian had behaved earlier and what had happened to Molly today. And the moment Molly's face came to his mind, his eyes narrowed and his brows knotted in dissatisfaction. For more reasons than one, he did not appreciate Molly being with Brian. He snorted lightly at the thought.

"Philip is one tough guy," said one of the mercenaries, as he watched Philip tussling with two mercenaries simultaneously. With all the other men down, Philip was the only man left whom the mercenaries needed to take out. And taking out Philip obviously wasn't going to be easy. Though Philip could not gain any advantage while fighting the two mercenaries, he wasn't ready to show any signs of defeat.

"Yes, he is," Shawn sneered coldly at the sight. No doubt that a man who could easily auction the world's most precious antiques and collections publicly was bound to have prominent strength and power, both mentally and physically. 'Only if he had just minded his own business and carried on with his 'career', all of this wouldn't have happened. He overreached and provoked Brian, the last person he should have provoked, ' Shawn thought, feeling pity for Philip's fortune. As far as he could remember, no one had ever gotten a happy ending after provoking Brian. Ever since he had known him, he had always been so vindictive.

He would even scheme to get even with Richie one day, eventually.

Shawn remembered their childhood when Brian used to bully him. A sudden chill ran through his veins. His wicked, yet enchanting face slowly turned to show an uncanny, vicious side of him, 'He is bound to pay his debt one day, ' he gnashed his teeth, determined to get back at him.

Shawn got bored after watching Philip's struggle for a little while longer. He rotated his gun habitually around his finger. His gun had the words "K Soul" engraved on its barrel. He put it away, adjusted himself and walked slowly towards Philip.
