Chapter 96
Boom!
The military pickup truck roared like a beast, screeching to a halt with a beautiful drift next to the gray van. The door of the driver’s seat opened.
The woman, holding a pistol, exited the car gracefully.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
She pulled the trigger at the four burly men in front of her.
The sound of gunshots pierced the air.
Her black eyes were filled with calmness and sharpness. She wore a camouflage vest, long pants, and
a ponytail. Her figure was exceptionally slender and agile.
The four men who were shot collapsed to the ground.
Peggy’s beautiful eyes twitched. What impressive skills!
Laura also looked at the uniformed woman before her. Her gaze showed a hint of surprise.
She recognized the woman as Colonel Lena Bailey of the Capital Military Region. Lena was the youngest female colonel in Andura.
Lena knew both of them. They were Laura, the eldest daughter of the Jones family in Leving, and her
secretary, Peggy Lee.
But, she did not expect to see the dignified Laura in the small town of Yrando.
On top of that, with no bodyguard in tow.
But now was not the time for Lena to think about those matters.
There was still one more accomplice who had not been dealt with.
“Ms. Lee, you should go back to the car. There’s another accomplice,” Lena said, concerned about
Peggy’s safety.
“Okay!” A shiver flashed through Peggy’s beautiful eyes as she quickly returned to the car.
Lena approached the driver’s seat of the van with a gun in her hand. Carefully, she reached the front door, her face radiating with determination.
She quickly opened the door and then pointed the gun at the driver’s seat. She commanded, “Don’t move! Hands up!”
But, the driver’s seat was empty!
Lena’s eyes flickered.

Swish!
It was at that time a figure suddenly jumped out from the back seat of the van.
He kicked Lena’s head viciously with a force strong enough to shatter a stone pillar!
Facing such a fierce attack, Lena showed no signs of panic.
She nimbly dodged the man’s attack, followed by a sweeping leg to knock him down. As he tried to get up, Lena used a hand chop to strike his neck.
The man let out a muffled grunt before falling.
Lena smirked, revealing a hint of arrogance.
She holstered her sidearm. The reason she didn’t shoot the man was because she intended to keep
one alive.
These people were foreign mercenaries. She had been monitoring their movements since they sneaked into the country a week ago.
Little did she expect them to be here for Laura.
“Ms. Jones, Ms. Lee, it’s okay now.” Lena approached the black Lincoln.
“Phew!” Peggy sighed in relief. Her pretty face still showed lingering fear.
Looking at Lena, she said, “Colonel Bailey, thank you so much. You appeared just in time.”
Laura got out of the car as well. Her beautiful eyes swept over the bodies on the ground with a chill in her gaze.
Once again, someone tried to kill her!
“Ms. Lee, Ms. Jones, I’m glad you’re both unharmed.”
Lena looked at the two women and said, “By the way, was there anyone else at the scene?”
“Oh, there was one more person!” Peggy’s eyes widened.
Lena’s question reminded her of Cameron.
He had warned them to stay in the car before rushing off. Hopefully, he was safe.
Laura’s eyes flashed with a hint of anxiety.
Just as she was about to search for Cameron, a voice came from behind them. “I’m here.”
Laura immediately turned to see Cameron, unscathed. She let out a sigh, feeling relieved.
Peggy, on the other hand, frowned when she saw Cameron. He looked unharmed and even his clothes were not stained with a speck of dust. Her worried expression disappeared in an instant, replaced by
anger.
Chapter 96
For a split second, Peggy had assumed that Cameron risked his life to protect them.
Turns out, he had found a place to hide!
This coward who fled in the face of danger!
