Chapter 1828: Only the Law of Survival Understands

A small group of soldiers already awaited Nathalie and Gilbert outside her room. Together, they quickly headed to the courtyard, where a helicopter was prepared for Nathalie.

The sound of gunfire grew louder as they rushed to their destination.

Just as Butler Gilbert had warned, their enemies had infiltrated the mansion. They’d barely left the room when they had their first confrontation. A few of her men fell, but they managed to take down the immediate threat.

Without stopping, the remaining group carried on.

That encounter wasn’t isolated; if anything, it snowballed.

More gunfire, more encounters, more problems, more deaths.

Naturally, the group had to change course to reach their objective. What should have been a mere five-minute trip stretched far longer than intended.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Nathalie and Butler Gilbert dove behind a wall as more enemies appeared at the other end of the hallway. The strong scent of sulfur stung their nostrils as bullets continuously struck their cover.

"How... how did this all happen?" she breathed, her voice shaking. She glared at her butler, who was more focused on their survival.

At this point, only three of them remained: Nathalie, Gilbert, and their last soldier. This grim reality highlighted just how deeply the enemies had penetrated the mansion.

BANG—

Butler Gilbert peeked out and opened fire, hitting the person shooting at them. Another followed, which he also shot down without a second’s hesitation. Without thinking twice, he grabbed Nathalie’s arm.

"Madam, let’s go!" he shouted, and without waiting for her response, he dragged her with him.

Nathalie clenched her teeth and matched his pace. Behind them was their only remaining soldier, who soon would also fall.

BANG!

Both Nathalie and Butler Gilbert stopped dead as they heard a gunshot. They looked back, and without thinking twice, Nathalie opened fire at the person several steps behind them.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

But even when the man fell, she kept pulling the trigger. By his civilian clothes, she knew he was from the Shadow Order. It was a clear tell.

"I’ll kill you," she mumbled, emptying her gun at him. "I’ll kill all of you."

Butler Gilbert then grabbed her arm. "Madam," he called, but Nathalie still pulled the trigger until only the clang of an empty chamber was heard. "Madam."

"I’m going to kill all of them, Gilbert," she breathed out, finally stopping her firing.

She slowly turned her head and met his eyes, unblinking as they burned. "Not just them, but every single one of their loved ones and friends. Even just those who simply knew them—I’ll kill all of them."

For all the decades she had been in this war, it had almost lost all its meaning. After all, all she wanted in the beginning was to prove her worth and to end her sisters as retribution for her father’s betrayal.

However, things just kept piling up, one after another, and she ended up deciding to create her own empire. Yet, everyone was giving her a hard time. freewёbnoνel.com
