The bald-headed man and the other man were sprawled on the ground. Their mouths were stained with blood, and there were even some broken teeth on the floor.
Meanwhile, Xandra and the other woman were kneeling on the ground with their hands tied. Just like Amelia a moment ago, they were drenched in cold water and shivering.
“You punk. You're quite the bold type, huh?” Marco shot his subordinates a look. Immediately, they went forward to release Xandra and the other woman.
Just as they took two steps forward, a silver flash of light appeared from Donald's hand, and it stabbed into one of the subordinates' thighs.
“Ow! My leg!”
The subordinate rolled on the ground while clutching his leg. At the same time, the others hurriedly whipped out their weapons.
Marco never expected Donald to attack so brazenly in front of him.
At that, he took out his gun and aimed it at Donald. “D*mn it. I'm going to shoot you!”
Guns provided people, including Marco, a sense of security.
The moment Marco took it out and aimed it at Donald, he felt as if he had complete control over the situation.
Even Chester, who had been hiding behind the men, stepped out from the crowd when he saw Donald not daring to move because of the gun.
Chester gazed at Donald with an air of arrogance. “Remember me, Mr. Campbell? You must be confused and clueless as to why you're in this situation today, right? I told you I'd never let you off if you broke my arms. It looks like you'll be dying before my eyes today.”
Donald cast him an unruffled look and said, “I knew you were the one behind this. This is between us. Why involve Amelia in it?”
Chester harrumphed and questioned, “So what if I involve Amelia in this? That b*tch has pissed me off multiple times over the past few years. I would've been tricked by this b*tch long ago if not for my trusted subordinates. Not to mention she didn't tell me about your identity when she knew about it. Do you think I didn't know what was going on in that head of hers? She clearly wanted to make you do all the dirty work and get me kicked out of Dragon Fide Corporation. Since that's the case, there's no need for me to be so particular about what I do. Am I right, Amelia?”
Amelia's eyes welled up with tears as she stood silently behind Donald.
It was true that she had plans to make Donald deal with Chester.
However, Chester was the one who had been making things difficult for her throughout the years. How is he the victim now?
Nonetheless, all that did not matter.
The moment Amelia spotted the gun in Marco's hand, she knew their chances of escaping that day were slim.
Not wanting to live a pathetic life being insulted by people, she said to Donald softly, “Mr. Campbell, I'll charge out there and shield you from Mr. Black's gun. During that time, you need to run away and come back with a few men to avenge me.”
Amelia still took Donald for a CEO who was good at fighting.
Hence, she was determined to take such a risk to help Donald flee.
To her surprise, Donald responded without turning his head, “I never let a woman take a bullet for me. If you really want to help me, lean your head closer.”
Amelia had no idea what he wanted to do, but she obeyed his instructions.
Right then, Donald reached out and hit her neck, causing her to pass out instantly.
Chester, Marco, and the others were dumbfounded by Donald's actions.
What's the meaning of this? Why is he attacking someone who's on his side?
Just as the crowd was trying to grasp the situation, Donald took out a cigarette, placed it between his lips, and said to Chester plainly, “I've spared your life once. Why do you still come out and cause trouble?”
