The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1561

"Keep the windows rolled up!"

Just as the young driver reached to crack the window, the sergeant barked an order to stop him.

The driver looked confused, but the sergeant's face was grim. "If they're armed, opening that window is a death sentence!"

They couldn't see the cars in front of them anymore, but they definitely hadn't gone far.

The two cars behind them had killed their engines, simply waiting for the convoy to make a move.

The second Wang stuck his head out, a sniper from the rear vehicle could blow it off.

The sergeant was fiercely protective of Wang. The kid had only been in the service for two years and was a phenomenal driver.

He was way too young to die on a desolate mountain pass.

"Understood, Sergeant. I got careless."

In the back, Dane and Claire had reached the exact same tactical conclusion.

They also suspected the pursuing operatives were heavily armed and let out a collective breath when the sergeant stopped Wang.

"The sergeant knows what he's doing. Let him handle it for now."

Dane reassured Claire.

But with the vehicle pinned down, the situation was rapidly deteriorating.

Up front, Wang palpably felt the rising danger. He looked at the sergeant. "How do we communicate with the civilian? He looks like he's about to panic."

Seeing that the soldiers weren't opening their doors to check the damage completely shattered the shepherd's expectations.

The sergeant grabbed a megaphone, cracked the window just a fraction of an inch, and projected his voice outside.

"Sir, we are on a classified military operation. Time is critical. Please clear the livestock immediately."

The shepherd clearly hadn't expected that response.

"But I can't move them by myself! Can one of you please come down and help me?"

The shepherd limped two steps forward and pointed to his arm. "I injured myself working yesterday."

Wang looked at the sergeant. "The civilian is injured and can't move the goats. What's the call?"

The sergeant's headache flared into a migraine.
