Chapter 1658

Nate hung up the phone silently and quietly took his place next to Chloe. With some pity, he watched Stanley lead his men as they fired the first shot. The checkpoint was caught off guard, and immediately thrown into the firefight.

“Ma’am, it’s dangerous up front. Please stay back as much as you can

Chloe shook her head. “I need to assess the situation and find a chance to break in.”

Nate’s expression was somewhat complex. “Don’t worry, I’ll handle it. The moment there’s an opening, I’ll make sure you’re the first one through. Your safety is our priority”

Chloe glanced at the ongoing firefight and decided to follow Nate’s advice and step back. She wasn’t overly worried about Stanley She had absolute confidence in his ability to handle a single checkpoint c2

She couldn’t possibly call Stanley for help without being sure he’d be safe. It wasn’t right to put him in a potentially life–threatening situation

Soon enough, Chloe felt the intensity of the battle wanting, and she moved closer to assess the situation.

Stanley had easily gained the upper hand, but dodging bullets back and forth was undoubtedly exhausting. Nate, seeing that the situation was under control signaled one of his men and whispered something in his ear. The man nodded and left.

Before long. Nate turned to Chloe. “Ma’am, let’s get in the car.”

Chloe was unsure of his plans, but the chilling wind outside left her no room to argue. Without much thought, she got in the car

The battle continued up ahead. As long as there was gunfire, Chloe would not risk going in. She didn’t come here to get herself killed

Five minutes felt like an eternity amidst the gunfire. Suddenly, a rumbling sound grew from the dark horizon. The sound of a helicopter’s engine and the whooshing wind grew louder.

Uncertain if it was a friend or foe, Chloe huddled inside the car, and her brows knitted together

Meanwhile, Nate stuck his head out of the window, looking up at the sky. His hair, already disheveled, was further tousled by the helicopter’s wind. But right now, controlling his overwhelming joy was more important than worrying about his messy hair.

Help was finally here. He could finally let go of this “ticking bomb.” With a sigh of relief, Nate started the car Chloe frowned, “What are you doing?”

“Ma’am, we can go in now”

Chloe glanced at the ongoing firefight. “It’s not stable yet

“Don’t worry. Trust me.” With a relaxed tone. Nate drove towards the checkpoint

Chloe’s face tightened, and her brows furrowed deeper. Silently, she gripped the gun in her pocket.

Three helicopters flew overhead, one after another. They crossed into the border region’s airspace without any signs of aggression or resistance. They even seemed to be preparing to land within the border.

Stanley and his men noticed, too. Damn! They’ve got reinforcements!

The helicopters landed without any resistance, clearly on their side. Three helicopters meant another round of firefights
