Chapter 517 Sacrificing Sophia
Jonathan remained silent upon hearing that. Instead, he turned around and made a tactical gesture at Andy. “Inform everyone to stand by in position.”
Looking thrilled, Andy immediately passed the order to the subordinates. A surge of emotions washed over him. After all, it was his first time seeing that familiar gesture again after two years.
Words couldn’t describe how worked up he was at the moment. He felt as if he had just returned to the days when he followed Asura around to fight with their enemies.
Meanwhile, Jonathan turned and looked at Wilbur.
Just then, Wilbur had gotten out of the car, which had gone out of shape.
The impact was extremely strong. If that happened to any ordinary man, their bones would have fractured. Moreover, they might even lose their lives.
Unexpectedly, Wilbur was still dusting off his clothes casually at the moment. His face was covered with blood, yet he remained unbothered.
Then, he took over the bottle of alcohol from a soldier who stood at the side. As soon as he opened the lid, he poured the alcohol on the wound on his head without hesitation.
Most people would probably find that scene disturbing if they saw how Wilbur disinfected his wound.
However, Wilbur remained calm and composed. There were no traces of emotions on his face as if the wound on his head had nothing to do with him. “Jonathan, why aren’t you leaving yet? Didn’t you say that you have something urgent to settle?”
“You’ve blocked the road. I can’t have my car driven here, so I’ll have to borrow a car from you,” Jonathan replied indifferently.
Hearing that, Wilbur chuckled. “It’s already a dereliction of duty for me to let you pass. How dare you still try to borrow a car from me? Do you think I’ll lend it to you?”
“You will.” Jonathan sneered, adding, “Although you’ve let me enter Yaleview, you’ll still have to keep track of my location, right?”
Wilbur didn’t expect Jonathan to be that straightforward. Immediately, he burst into laughter.
“Do you know what you’ve just said? You shouldn’t say that out even if it’s a fact. After all, you should at least pretend you don’t know about that on the outside!”
As Wilbur said that, he waved at a soldier, signaling him to come over. “Drive a car and escort Jonathan back to the Goldstein residence. Keep in mind that you’re Asura’s driver today. Don’t lose him.”
“Roger!” the young man replied.
After shooting Wilbur a glance, Jonathan turned around and left.
Meanwhile, Wilbur was standing behind Jonathan. As he watched the latter leave, his expression turned grim.
In fact, the battle just now was merely a test. Wilbur didn’t unleash all of his power.
Nevertheless, he clearly knew that Jonathan, too, didn’t unleash his full power just now.
“I wonder who’ll be the winner if both of us give our best. I’m really looking forward to finding that out.”
Wilbur watched Jonathan get into a military jeep. After Jonathan left, he finally turned around and looked at Chase, who was standing beside him. “Colonel Granger, come here,” said Wilbur while waving his hand.
“Commander…” Chase trotted over to him.
“Chase, if I remember correctly, you begged Jonathan for mercy just now, didn’t you?” Wiping away the blood on his face, Wilbur questioned.
“I-I… Commander, I’m sorry. I-I’ve embarrassed you…” Chase attempted to explain, but he didn’t know where to start.
To his surprise, Wilbur shook his head slightly. “It’s okay. It’s okay. It’s normal for humans to be afraid of death. I totally understand.”
“H-Huh? I… Thank you for your understanding, Commander. I’ll definitely—”
Thud!
Suddenly, a crisp sound rang out. Chase quickly lowered his head to look at his chest.
It turned out that Wilbur’s right hand had pierced through Chase’s chest like a sharp knife.
