Chapter 998:

A murderous aura surrounded Kellan, impossible to hide.

“Don’t worry about me. I’m okay. This blood belongs to someone else,” Allison took Kellan’s hand gently and comforted him. “As for Victor, don’t let him get away easily. He should suffer.”

If not, the souls of the ones who had died might not find peace.

“Mr. Lloyd, I’m really sorry,” Amya said quickly. “It’s all my fault for bringing you into this. Although Ms. Clarke is unharmed, she hasn’t been sleeping well lately.” Her nose felt tight with emotion.

Allison had been kinder to her than her own parents ever were.

Kellan’s dark presence softened a bit, but he stayed on edge.

“Alright, someone like Victor shouldn’t be allowed to die so easily.” Allison frowned as she stared into the distance. “What’s happening over there?”

A bald man had a woman in his grip.

She was clearly one of the women who had been trafficked before, and she seemed mentally fragile.

“He’s a criminal, armed and holding a hostage,” Kellan said coldly.

Just then, the bald man shouted a threat. “Don’t try anything stupid, or I’ll kill her!”

Allison began walking toward the man.

“I’ve got your boss right here. How about a trade? After all, I heard that all the money you made through violence is with Victor. So, I’m guessing you don’t want him to die here, do you?”

When Victor heard that he might be freed, his fear grew even stronger. It was clear that Allison was setting another trap.

He desperately shook his head, trying to warn the criminal not to fall for it.

But the bald man completely misread his reaction.

“Fine, but no funny business.”

The criminal noticed Victor’s injuries and how his jaw hung limply, realizing that Allison was not someone to mess with.

Still, he was desperate for the money.

He couldn’t afford to let Victor die here.

“Stay back. I’ll count to three, then we’ll release them at the same time.”

“Alright,” Allison replied with a flat expression.

When Allison agreed, several criminals rushed to the back door. They waited for their boss to be released so they could all escape together.

“Three, two, one.” As the final count came, Allison shoved Victor toward Kellan.

Kellan tossed his gun to Allison. “Catch!”

The two moved in sync, like they had practiced it before.

Kellan quickly took control of Victor. “I’m not as kind as Allison. If you try anything, I’ll make sure to cut off your legs.” His presence was chilling and dangerous.
