Chapitre 360: Me Before Him

“Yes, she seems fine. We will proceed with the exchange now,” Hayden stated flatly as he waved his hand slowly for his men to approach with the money.

What happens now?

“Can you stand?” Hayden asked softly.

I didn’t think that I could, so I shook my head at him helplessly. The truth was, even if I could stand up, I couldn’t walk which made me a huge burden. My freedom was just on the other side where Hayden’s men were, but it seemed so far away and impossible to reach with my feet taped together like this.

“Move away from her, Torex,” the leader commanded coldly.

Suddenly, all guns were drawn and pointed in Hayden’s direction. My head felt light, and I truly thought that I was going to faint just from the sight. This can’t be happening. One sign of aggression only led automatically to another as all of Hayden’s men drew their guns and pointed it at the enemies.

I started praying and I didn’t even know what exactly I was praying for. Please…don’t shoot?
