Wooing My ex-wife (Gwendolyn and Maverick) novel Chapter 853

Leonardo’s men had no disrespect for Charles’s men, provoking them repeatedly until they were wholly infuriated.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Three gunshots rang out from downstairs, prompting Leonardo’s men to rush upstairs to report it.

“They injured our men, Boss!”

Upon hearing that, Leonardo immediately loaded his gun and snarled unceremoniously, “You’ve brought this upon yourself, Charles!”

In truth, even if Charles’s men hadn’t made the first move, they would still be accused of doing so because Leonardo had never intended to let Charles leave the place alive from the very beginning.

Of course, Charles was no pushover either. When they searched him, he had already moved. the gun he was carrying someplace else.

He exchanged a glance with Isaac. The latter immediately understood his meaning and tossed a small package over.

“Catch, Mr. Newton!”

Charles quickly assembled a handgun and engaged in a fight with Leonardo.

Both of them were seasoned martial arts practitioners who trained all year round. For a moment, it was impossible to determine the winner, let alone the person with the upper hand.

After several rounds of punches and kicks, both of them sustained various injuries. Panting heavily, they separated temporarily.

A hint of admiration showed in Leonardo’s eyes. “I didn’t expect such a remarkable individual to exist in Chanaea. I’ve truly underestimated you.”

Charles didn’t bother wasting his breath with him but delivered another ruthless kick instead.

The longer he remained there, the more disadvantageous it would be for him.

However, he quickly noticed something amiss. Gradually, he felt a loss of strength, and his head began spinning.

He instantly realized that Leonardo must have released a gas in the room that could anesthetize the senses.

Seeing the change in his expression, Leonardo immediately sneered. “You feel it, don’t you? This is the latest anesthetic agent. You’re no match for me, Charles. The people of Chanaea. are just showy but useless. You all deserve to die! Haha…”

His voice was grating to the ears. Charles clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug into his flesh.

Right then, he could only gain fleeting clarity through pain.

Nonetheless, the anesthesia gradually made him lose his balance. His consciousness also started fading slowly.

Cornered by two men, Isaac couldn’t break free to save the man. Besides, he was likewise affected by the anesthetic and started losing against his opponents’ onslaught.

Leonardo gradually began to show Charles no mercy, leaving countless injuries on the latter.

Charles glanced out the window before he suddenly sprinted toward it.

Realizing his intentions, Leonardo fired two shots in quick succession. One of them hit the man right in the calf.

Charles stumbled, but still, he smashed the window using his momentum and jumped out.

Leonardo’s villa overlooked the sea. He fell into the ocean and disappeared without a trace.

“D*mn it! He got away!” Leonardo cursed, glaring at the broken window.

At that precise moment, his subordinate rushed up, panic-stricken. “Boss, their men are here, and we’re no match for them. Do you want to leave now? The luxury car for escape is already prepared in the basement.”

Upon hearing the commotion outside, coupled with the gunshot wound inflicted by Charles where an intense pain radiated, Leonardo had no choice but to leave first despite his reluctance.

Just ten minutes after he had left, Charles’ men had taken over the villa completely and rescued the hostages inside.

However, Leonardo was an extremely cunning man. He only detained half of the hostages in the villa, while the whereabouts of the other half remained unknown

After being rescued. Isaat was given an injection that finally brought him back to clarity

He stared at the fabric left by the window, anxiety showing on his face. He ordered loudly, “Immediately carry out a blanket search in this sea area! We must find Mr. Newton!”

“Understood!”

The sky gradually darkened. Charles’ men returned to the base and reported the situation in despair.
