"Help..." Just as Wilson Hunt stepped out of the East Sea City International Airport, he caught a faint and weak cry for help. He hadn't even had a chance to feel the warm and welcoming atmosphere of his homeland. The airport entrance was chaotic, with travelers coming and going, and the noise was overwhelming. The weak cry for help was like a drop of water in the ocean, barely causing a ripple. If Wilson hadn't been so confident in his hearing, he might have thought he was imagining things. Ten o'clock direction. Wilson's ears twitched, and he quickly pinpointed the source of the sound. About three to four hundred yards away, two tall, burly men in black were dragging a woman toward a silver-gray van. The woman's toes scraped along the ground, and she showed no signs of resistance. She must have been drugged with something like ether and was temporarily unconscious. This was a kidnapping! Wilson immediately recognized the situation and instinctively prepared to intervene... But he st

"Hey there, pretty lady, why'd you cuff yourself? What kind of game are you playing? Or do you have some special hobby?" Wilson Hunt teased Heather Baker maliciously, seeing her shocked expression. He had been scared out of his wits earlier. Although he couldn't do much to her, he could still take some verbal jabs."You bastard, what did you do to me? Do you believe I'll shoot you?" Heather yanked at the handcuffs, making them clink loudly. Her eyes were filled with murderous intent as her right hand quickly reached for the holster at her waist."Oh, I'm so scared, Officer. Are you threatening me?" Wilson said, feigning fear. With a flick of his wrist, a police-issued gun appeared in his hand. The mocking look on his face grew even more pronounced."My gun..." Heather's hand came up empty. She stared at the gun in Wilson's hand, her eyes wide with disbelief. When had that bastard managed to snatch her gun without her noticing?"Who the hell are you?" Heather demanded loudly, her expre

"Ugh.. Where am I?" Promise Nelson, who was tied to a wooden post, slowly regained consciousness. Her beautiful eyes opened, taking in the unfamiliar surroundings with a look of confusion. Brooke holstered his gun and quickly walked over to untie her, speaking softly, "Don't be afraid. We're the police. You're safe now.""Police?"Promise, still groggy from just waking up, was slow to process what was happening. With Brooke's help, she sat down on a nearby chair. It took her a moment to recall the events at the airport. Her father had mentioned that someone very important was coming to East Sea City and insisted she personally go to pick them up. She had canceled a company meeting and driven to the airport. As soon as she got out of the car, someone had covered her mouth and nose with something from behind, and she had lost consciousness. It was clear now—she had been kidnapped!"Thank you," Promise said, quickly composing herself. She tidied her disheveled hair, revealing her stunnin

"Such strong killing intent." Wilson Hunt, who had spent years walking the edge of death, keenly sensed that there were at least ten bodyguards hidden around the villa. These weren't ordinary bodyguards either; they were likely soldiers who had seen combat and bloodshed. Wilson could feel their cold gazes fixed on him, ready to take him out at the slightest misstep.With a quick sweep of his peripheral vision, he noted the villa was surrounded by surveillance cameras, leaving no blind spots. Even he wasn't confident he could silently infiltrate the villa. Especially concerning was the top floor, where a faint but deeply unsettling aura emanated. A martial arts grandmaster! There was actually a grandmaster of the highest level here!"Damn, that old man tricked me again..." Wilson instantly regretted his decision. The villa's formidable security made it clear that this place was far from simple and could very well be life-threatening. The old man had assured him there was no danger, say

Sandalwood Palace Villa, located at the junction of East Sea City's Tech Park and Dragon Splendor District, faced a large Dragon Heart Eco Park and had Southern Sandalwood Mountain at its back. The air was fresh, and the scenery was beautiful, rivaling even Violet Residence No. 1. Promise Nelson's villa, near Southern Sandalwood Mountain, was called 'Mountain Cottage.' It wasn't very large, with two floors and an attic. There was a swimming pool, garage, and flowerbeds downstairs. Though simple, it was tastefully decorated.Promise walked in with a stern face. She was in a very, very bad mood. "Hey, beautiful, don't be so stingy. Come on, give me a smile..." "Jerk, get lost!" Wilson Hunt had tried to lighten the mood, but all he got was an angry shout from Promise. Right now, Promise found Wilson extremely annoying and had no intention of being nice to him. Wilson scratched his nose and gave an awkward laugh. But then he remembered he had just tricked her out of three million dolla
