‘She’s talking about risking it all, like she’s not afraid her teeth will fall out from bragging so hard! Rylie thought.

With the Lowell family’s current situation, they’d be lucky to scrape together 30 million.

But that wasn’t Rylie’s problem. As long as she got her hands on the remedy, however, Stella managed to scrape up the cash, which was none of her concern.

Rylie kept her poker face on. “Don’t worry, Mom. Once we get that remedy, Lawrence will be over the moon. With it, establishing the Lowell family in Betrico would be a breeze.”

Stella looked completely satisfied, already daydreaming about the good times to come.

At Frontierland, two men in black tactical gear rushed into the bunker, their faces tense with worry.

“We’re surrounded! No way to get a signal out!” one of them shouted.

The man glanced at Ryan, who was lying unconscious on the ground, and asked anxiously, “Is Ryan going to be okay?”

Felix had already used up all the meds he had on Ryan, his face dark with worry. “It’s no good! The wound’s been infected for way too long, and he’s burning up. If we don’t get out soon, Ryan’s going to die here.”

They were completely trapped here, with no way out.

The people outside seemed to be playing for time, not making a move, just standing guard out there.

They were just waiting for them to crack and walk right into their net.

They wanted to catch someone alive.

One of our scouts got captured, but he chose to end his own life rather than give up any secrets.

Ever since Ryan got shot, he hadn’t gotten any real treatment. Sure, he could do some basic patching up, but out here, there was nothing. All he could do was tough it out and pray someone would come save him.

For the first few days, Ryan was still hanging in there. But starting last night, he was burning up and totally out cold.

Felix had used every last bit of medicine Nina gave him on Ryan but it was no use at all.

Not that he thought Nina’s meds were bad, it was just that Ryan was way too far gone. Nothing was going to pull him back

now.

“How about we risk it all and make a last-ditch run for it?” Zaire, one of Ryan’s teammates, suggested.

“A few of us will rush out and create a distraction. You grab the chance and get Ryan out of here,” Zaire said.

“No way!” Felix snapped. “Ryan would never let his guys trade their lives for his; he’s just not that kind of leader!”

Felix hated the idea of Ryan dying here, but he knew just how much Ryan valued his crew.

If Ryan were awake right now, there’s no way he’d let anyone risk it all for him; he’d rather take the hit himself.

“We’re here for our country, not to throw our lives away for Ryan The intel Ryan risked everything to secure is critical; it has to make it back home, no matter what. We can sacrifice ourselves, but he can’t die!” Zaire said, his voice resolute.

It’s decided. Gear up. This is our final stand!” Zaire ordered.

“Don’t be reckless,” Felix said coldly. “Since we all know how critical that intel is, we have to accept that it’s more important than Ryan’s life.”

“With the state he’s in, there’s no telling if he’ll even survive, and those people outside aren’t going to let any of us go easily. If we have to choose who to protect, it can’t be Ryan,” he said.
