Chapter 197
The command center in Scott's mansion buzzed with a tense undercurrent of urgency, the holographic screens casting flickering shadows across the walls like ghosts in the dim light. The air was thick with the scent of stale coffee and the faint metallic tang of electronics, the group's faces illuminated by the glowing profiles of the four men on display. Jack leaned closer to the screen, his brow furrowed in concentration, pointing at the holograms with a hesitant finger. "What are their names again?" He asked, his voice laced with a mix of curiosity and unease, glancing between Scott and Lord Leo for clarification.Scott nodded, stepping forward to manipulate the display, zooming in on each face one by one, his tone analytical as he broke it down. "Alright, let's go through them. First up is Marco Rossi,Italian shipping magnate, controls half the Mediterranean trade routes. He's the one with the mustache that looks like it could hide a small arsenal; rumors say he's got ties to e

After a few hours of this grim dissection, the sound of tires crunching on gravel outside announced Lord Leo's return. He drove the Lamborghini back into the garage, parking it with a gentle rev, then strode into the operating room,his fur cloak billowing, mane slightly windswept from the drive. The group looked up as he entered, his golden eyes scanning the room."Emilia's on the plane." He announced, his voice a deep rumble echoing off the walls. "Boarded safely,VIP escort all the way. She's en route to Blue Heavens now."Jack exhaled in relief, leaning against a console. "Okay, good. Thanks for handling that, Leo."Lord Leo nodded, clapping Jack on the shoulder. ."She said she'll call as soon as she arrives at the Williams mansion. SWAT's already fortified the place,no one's getting in without a fight."Jack managed a small smile. "Okay, I'll be waiting for her call then." He glanced at his watch, anxiety lingering in his eyes.Lord Leo then walked over to the main screen, h
Chapter 195
A few hours later, under the golden hues of the Italian sunset painting the sky in strokes of orange and pink, Mr Steven Adams' private jet,a sleek, black Gulfstream G700 with polished chrome accents and the Adams family crest emblazoned on its tail,touched down smoothly on the private airstrip at Rome's Fiumicino Airport. The engines whined down to a low hum as the aircraft taxied to a halt, the wheels kissing the tarmac with barely a jolt. The door hissed open, unfolding into stairs that descended gracefully, and Mr Steven emerged, his silver-streaked hair catching the evening breeze, his tailored suit impeccable despite the long flight. He adjusted his cufflinks with a deliberate motion, his piercing blue eyes scanning the surroundings as he descended step by step, his posture exuding unshakeable confidence.Waiting at the base of the stairs were three of his closest allies,old friends from the shadowy world of international power brokering. There was Marco Rossi, a portly Itali

"Alright, fine." He finally conceded, his voice reluctant but accepting. "But you have to stay with police officers at all times. No going rogue,promise me."Emilia nodded eagerly, relief flooding her features. "Alright, I promise. I need to go right now, though. Every second counts."Lord Leo pocketed his phone and stepped forward, his massive frame casting a shadow. "Okay, I'll take you to the airport and make sure you travel safely." He offered, his tone gruff but protective. "I've got contacts there,VIP treatment all the way."Emilia flashed a grateful smile. "That's fine with me. I'm going to get my bag ready." With that, she turned and bolted up the nearby staircase, her footsteps echoing rapidly as she ascended two steps at a time, her cybernetic legs propelling her with enhanced speed, disappearing into the upper levels of the mansion.Lord Leo turned to Jack, clapping him on the back reassuringly. "The commander has already sent a SWAT team over to the Williams mans
Chapter 193
The command center in Scott's mansion thrummed with tension, the holographic screens casting an eerie blue glow across the faces of the group, illuminating the kill map in stark detail. The air was thick with the hum of electronics and the faint scent of ozone from overworked servers, the distant rumble of the security alert still echoing faintly, a harbinger of encroaching danger. Emilia's composure shattered the moment her eyes locked onto the name "Lord Williams" marked in ominous red on the map, her grandfather's title glaring like a death sentence. Her cybernetic eyes whirred erratically, the red glow flickering as panic surged through her augmented system, her hands trembling as she backed away from the screen. "No, no, this can't be." She muttered, her voice rising in pitch, laced with fear. She began pacing the room in tight, frantic circles, her boots scuffing against the polished concrete floor, arms wrapped around herself as if to hold back the wave of dread. Her brea

"After all you've done, you still don't feel guilty?" He snarled, his voice cracking with fury, eyes blazing with hatred.Mr Steven chuckled softly, a sarcastic edge sharpening his words as he rose from his chair, circling the table with unhurried steps. "No, I don't feel guilty." He replied, his tone dripping with irony, gesturing dismissively. "I haven't done anything wrong to feel guilty about. It's just business,loose ends tied up neatly. You should understand that by now."Bobby's rage peaked; he pointed the gun directly at Steven's chest, his finger tightening on the trigger, breath ragged. "You bastard…"Mr Steven's eyes glinted with dark pride. "Yeah, that's my boy." He said, his voice taunting. "Remember what I taught you: if you point a gun at a man, make sure you pull the trigger immediately, son."Bobby's eyes widened in shock as a red dot suddenly appeared on his forehead, a laser sight from an unseen sniper perched somewhere in the shadows outside the windows.
