Chapter 461 The terrified Robert followed Charmine closely; he had never before experienced such a fearsome standstill.
They luckily had Uji Quin with them, and they managed to leave the basement and went to the plank walk outside. As the passage was very narrow, accidents might happen. Furthermore, Charmine knew well enough that Uji Quin would not let them go on so easily-he must have something else planned. Charmine had to make sure that Robert could get out of Uji Quinâs lair safely. She pressed on a button. It was an emergency button to signal Kay.
Beep!
Kay responded. Since the infrared rays were turned off and the plank walk was in sight, he should be here in no time.
âYou go first, just keep walking,â said Charmine to Robert. âSomeone will be waiting for you down there.â âI donât...â Instinctively, Robert refused. This was such a dangerous situation-how could he leave Charmine alone? Charmine glared at him coldly. âWhat can you do even if you stay? Go!â she snapped demandingly. Robert halted; Charmine had a point. What could he do? He could not do anything, and he could barely protect himself.
Robert, at that moment, despised his useless self-his loser self. However, he had to hold back his overwhelming emotions to walk down the passage. He had to leave; he should not cause any more problems for Charmine. When he left them to walk into the plank walk, a bodyguard went forward and tried to get him, but Charmine swiftly pulled Uji Quin to the entrance of the plank walk to block the entrance. She glared daggers at Uji Quinâs bodyguards. âIf even a strand of hair of his gets touched, Uji Quin will be dead.â Charmine pressed the dagger against Uji Quinâs neck to assert her dominance. The terror-struck Uji Quin hastily bleated, âDonât move! Listen to her! Stay back!â The bodyguards had no choice but to take a few steps back. Nobody dared to touch Robert. Robertâs steps audibly grew weaker by the second. After a while, the sound vanished into the night sky.
Uji Quinâs eyes narrowed. He did not notice anyone at the foot of the mountain when he returned nor did he receive any notification that his alarm system was turned off, so he did not have any men guarding the heel of the mountain. Someone was waiting for Robert down there!
Since when did Charmine come with her men? What Uji Quin did not know was that Charmine only brought two men; any more than that and they would get noticed. It was easier, on the other hand, to stay undercover with just two men. Charmine waited patiently as her guard never dropped from eyeing the bodyguards and Uji Quinâs movement. Nothing should go wrong in this situation.
Time passed, and Uji Quinâs back grew sore. The words escaped him rather condescendingly as he spoke, âOh, Charmine, it was all just a misunderstanding, and your brotherâs safe and sound now as well! Why canât you let me go? I promise Iâll let you go.â âShut up and stop whining!â Charmine snapped coldly.
She was still calculating the exact time for Robert to reach the heel of the mountain.
Uji Quin jolted at her tone. No one had ever spoken to him with such harshness ever since he was a kid, yet with Charmine, he dared not even fart! All he could do was roll his eyes, annoyed and irritated.
How could Charmine speak to him with such a tone? She had to die!
After a long while, approximately 20 minutes later, Charmine narrowed her eyes and said to Uji Quin, âWell, youâre right. Do what youâre told, and Iâll consider keeping you alive. Any funny business and Iâll get you for it!â With that, she released Uji Quin from her neck lock and raised her leg to kick his buttock harshly.
Thunk!
Uji Quin flew toward his one hundred bodyguards while Charmine swiftly sprinted down the plank walk Uji Quin felt a sharp pain on his buttock as he roared, âChase after her! Now!â
