Twins in Her Womb (Bianca and Luke Crawford novel) novel Chapter 2781

Gordan had no intention of confronting these terrifying members of the Island of Despair.

After all, they were armed with guns and grenades. He was a law-abiding citizen who would not bring these things into A City.

Plus, Luke's idea was to avoid conflict if possible.

After all, the Mallory family would be affected if things escalated.

Sometimes, Gordan would feel that Luke was too kind to Percy, to the extent that their close relationship could easily be misunderstood by others.

However, both of them had women whom they loved.

He sometimes even suspected that there were certain intimacies between them, but he could not think further about it.

Gordan pulled a cigarette out of his pocket. This was no ordinary cigarette. It was a kind of drug.

The kidnappers had used it to drug Pierre before taking him here. Gordan wanted to see how it would work on them this time.

Even though Gordan wanted to go head-to-head with them, Luke reminded him not to cause a disturbance or attract the attention of the police and the media. Therefore, he could only resort to this sneaky method.

Although it was not only sneaky but also a dishonorable method, it was still a way to let them have a taste of their medicine.

Gordan looked at the flattened cigarette in his hand. In this old-fashioned residential building, the bedroom doors were all tattered and had a large gap underneath. He stuffed the cigarette in and it fit perfectly.

He carefully lit it and quickly inserted it under the door while holding his breath.

The others also held their breath when they saw Gordan light the cigarette.

Gordan purchased the cigarette on the black market in Russia. It was effective…

He looked at his watch and counted the time.

When the second hand on his watch made a full circle, he took out the cigarette and extinguished it on the ground.

Then, he pushed open the door and signaled to one of the men.

The man put on the gas mask and entered the bedroom.

According to Luke's instructions, they had to take photos of the appearance of each of the members of the Island of Despair if there was no conflict.

The man was afraid of being drugged after entering the bedroom, which was why he wore the gas mask.

Gordan continued to walk toward another bedroom.

It was not so much a bedroom but rather where Pierre was being held.

Gordan could see that there was always someone near the room when he was spying on them.

It was especially so at night.

Judging from Gordan’s past experiences, he analyzed that they took turns guarding Pierre. That was why there was always someone nearby.

During the night time, the person on duty would not go back to his bedroom to sleep. Instead, he would sleep on a makeshift bed at the door. It was to prevent Pierre from escaping.

Gordan and Leroy quietly approached until they were next to the person.

"Who's there?" In an instant, the man felt someone approaching and instinctively reached for his gun while sitting up.

Leroy reacted with lightning speed, blocking the man's arm before he could fire.

The gun went off with a loud bang.

Kazimir knew what was happening when he heard the sound of the gunshot. He looked at the faces before him and realized they were here to rescue someone.

"Damn it, Alexsei!" Kazimir could not believe that something would happen on the day they were about to receive the ransom after living peacefully for days. He called out for Alexsei as he grappled with Leroy.

Leroy knew the man had a gun. He was cautious when they both struggled, and he was constantly dodging the muzzle.
