Chapter 1702 – Walking Out to Meet the Enemies
*****Neither Mistress Ayra nor Sage Myron dared to voice the question aloud, but it echoed through both their minds.Despite their confusion, however, neither had any intention of abandoning him.Sage Myron released a deep sigh, gathered himself, and hurried after Xavier."Wait for me, Sir!" he called, quickening his pace to catch up.He might not understand what Xavier intended to do, but he certainly had no desire to remain behind. If Xavier was determined to face the situation head-on, then Sage Myron would follow him.Mistress Ayra, however, did not follow immediately.She remained where she was for a moment, watching the doorway through which the two men had disappeared.Her earlier anger had not diminished; if anything, the thought of a possible traitor had made it considerably worse.After recovering from her momentary daze, Mistress Ayra pulled out her cell phone and opened an encrypted group chat. Her fingers moved swiftly across the screen as she typed a message, each word
Chapter 1701 – Xavier’s Decision
*****Mistress Ayra’s voice was thick with disbelief. They had barely settled here, yet their enemies had already arrived with enough firepower to surround the entire hotel. It was almost as though someone had personally handed their enemies a map, circled their exact location, and helpfully included instructions on how to launch an assault.Beside her, Sage Myron ground his teeth, his eyes bloodshot with fury."Someone must have sold us out!" he declared with absolute certainty.He could think of no other reasonable explanation.Their movements should have been difficult to track, and the speed with which the enemy had descended upon them was far too suspicious to dismiss as a coincidence. Someone had known where they were, and that knowledge had somehow found its way into the hands of their enemies.The thought made his blood boil.Whoever the traitor was, Sage Myron was already imagining all the unpleasant things he would like to do to the bastard once they discovered his identity.
Chapter 1700 – The Enemies' Arrival II
*****"Don't push me! I can't breathe!""Then stop standing in the doorway!""Who the hell are you telling to move? Look at the crowd!"Shouts erupted from every direction as guests struggled to reach the exits. Some tried to force their way ahead of others, while those near the back desperately pushed forward, terrified that the authorities might lose patience and begin shooting before everyone had escaped.Nobody wanted to be the last person inside the building.The situation quickly deteriorated into complete chaos.The hotel had several elevators, but their number proved woefully inadequate for the hundreds of people trying to evacuate simultaneously.Guests crowded into the elevator lobbies, pressed against one another as they waited for the doors to open. Whenever an elevator arrived, people surged forward, desperate to squeeze inside, regardless of whether there was enough room for everyone.Those already inside found themselves packed so tightly that even lifting an arm became
Chapter 1699 – The Enemies' Arrival
*****At this moment, the entire hotel had been transformed into something straight out of a terrorist nightmare.With armed forces surrounding the building and helicopters hovering overhead, the place looked less like a hotel and more like a battlefield where an entire army had come to hunt down a group of criminals.Powerful searchlights swept across the building, illuminating the windows and balconies as though the authorities were searching for fugitives who might leap out at any moment.Inside the helicopters, snipers kept their weapons trained on the hotel, their fingers resting against the triggers while they waited for the slightest command.On the ground, vehicles were stationed strategically around the building, and heavily armed personnel guarded every possible escape route. Even someone with wings would have struggled to leave unnoticed, and anyone considering digging a tunnel would probably have been halfway through the lobby before realizing how terrible an idea that was.
Chapter 1698 – “Am I Really That Ugly?”
*****Mistress Ayra studied Xavier’s expression, searching desperately for a hint of amusement, a teasing smile, or even the slightest indication that he was making a suggestive remark.Surely he couldn't be serious. Surely no man could look at a woman who had just removed her bathrobe to reveal such revealing pajamas and ask her about the temperature.But Xavier's face told her everything she needed to know.He really believed she had taken off the bathrobe because she was feeling hot.Mistress Ayra sat there in stunned silence.For a moment, she even wondered whether the problem lay with her clothes. Perhaps the pajamas weren't as attractive as she had thought, or maybe the lighting was terrible.Her gaze slowly dropped toward herself.The neckline of her pajamas revealed enough of her cleavage to make her cheeks burn, and she knew perfectly well how alluring she looked.She had admired the result in the mirror before leaving her room, and even she had found it difficult to look awa
Chapter 1697 – An Unexpected Visitor
*****Meanwhile, the person standing outside was struggling with a problem far more complicated than knocking on someone's door should ever have been.Mistress Ayra stood in the corridor wearing a large bathrobe, her fingers gripping its edges as she nervously bit her lower lip.The woman who could confidently gather intelligence, command the loyalty of her subordinates, and navigate the dangerous undercurrents of the city was now fighting a private battle against her own nerves.She had faced dangerous people before. She had walked into situations where a single mistake could cost her dearly, and she had never considered herself a coward.Yet somehow, standing outside Xavier's room in the middle of the night made her feel more vulnerable than any of those encounters.‘Honestly, how can Sir Patriarch be so clueless?’She felt a mixture of frustration and embarrassment as she thought about it. Xavier was perceptive when dealing with enemies, suspicious schemes, and complicated situatio
