After that, Stanley Batton returned to the rope and grabbed it…
Soon, the rope started ascending automatically…
He was getting further and further away from the ground.
Everything seemed even more stunning than in the movies!
However, Xyla Quest felt as if her heart rose to her throat.
She was afraid that an accident might occur to her man.
Only after seeing Stanley disappearing inside the cabin did her heart finally calm down.
Soon, the battle aircraft disappeared…
After seeing the aircraft leave, Xyla looked at her bodyguards. “Three of you will take Mr. York to the hospital. The rest of you will come with me to help other people…”
This had all happened because of her.
Xyla felt obligated and responsible to help those people…
“But, Mr. Batton said…”
“I know… But I have my plans. I promised him because I was afraid he might stop me…” Xyla said.
“But if Mr. Batton found out, he would blame us…” One of the bodyguards said.
“I’ll bear all consequences… I’ll protect you guys,” Xyla added.
After the bodyguards looked at each other, they reluctantly nodded.
Right then, six police cars and ambulances arrived…
People from the ambulances were the first to get out.
A large group of medical staff frantically jumped into the deep pits to lift the people, who were barely alive, up and brought them into the ambulances…
There were old folks, children, and young men and women…
The dust had cleared completely…
However, the scent of gunpowder was still in the air. It was very unpleasant.
The world became even more apparent to Xyla.
She could see several women running over and kneeling next to the deep pits as they cried and kowtowed to the medical staff.
