Night of Destiny (Anastasia and Elliot) novel Chapter 2608

Shirley had lost her handphone and bag. If she wanted to escape, she had to find other means of communication. She vaulted over the walls and escaped.

One of the kidnappers suspected his accomplice was taking an unusually long time in the bathroom. Having just left the restroom moments ago, he surmised the other guy might be checking the room where Shirley was held captive.

However, upon entering, he was met with the lifeless body of his companion, leaving him in utter shock. “She escaped.” “What? She escaped?” The leader made up his mind to leave right after that.

“Not our problem. We have to leave now.” Suddenly, the unmistakable sound of rotor blades filled the air, accompanied by infrared beams piercing through the windows.

“The cops are here! Get your weapons!” the leader roared. Quickly, his henchmen whipped out guns and fired off at the windows.

Since the kidnappers initiated the attack, the cops weren’t about to remain passive. They swiftly deployed a team to confront the kidnappers.

Zacharias was in the car, and he turned to Roy, who was behind him. “Give me a gun. I’m going to search for Shirley myself.” “Sir, it’s not safe for you to leave. We’ve got this,” Roy urged.

Zacharias insisted, “Give me the gun.” “I can’t allow that, sir. I’m sorry.” Roy got out of the car and locked the doors. He instructed four of his men to guard the vehicle while he and the others charged into the crossfire.

Imogen was among those who rushed into the crossfire, determined to locate Shirley as soon as possible. Wearing a mask to avoid recognition by the kidnappers, Imogen hid herself at a higher vantage point, opened fire, and shot dead two of the fleeing kidnappers. After all, her sole objective was to ensure that none of the kidnappers could escape.

“Let me out!” Zacharias, locked in the car, was driven to madness. His eyes were red as he observed the house caught in the crossfire. Desperately banging on the window, his hand was swollen and bleeding.
