With a wicked grin, Cory hauled Nathan to his feet, drawing his gun and pressing it against Nathans temple.
Well done, Nathan.
I didnt expect your subordinates to be so disobedient.
They showed up so soon.
If I shoot you now, well have a companion on the way to hell, right? Lonnie, alarmed, immediately tried to defuse the situation.
Cory, surrender now and you still have a chance to live.
Keep resisting, and youll die for sure! Dont hurt Mr.
Payne! Cory threw his head back and laughed maniacally.
Pressing the gun harder against Nathans temple with all his strength, he threatened Nathan, Order all your men to retreat and drop their weapons.
If they dare make a move, well see who moves faster. Lonnie, realizing the danger, didnt dare to risk his subordinates doing anything so he reluctantly complied with Corys demands and ordered his subordinates to retreat, not daring to provoke Cory further.
Still pointing his gun at Nathans head, Cory sneered, I didnt expect your men to be so concerned about your life.
Nathan, arent you supposed to be a capable man? Why dont you fight back? Nathan didnt say anything.
His cold eyes narrowed as he didnt react and simply listened to his mocking words.
..
Library At this moment, Sonny arrived with Lucinda.
Lucinda hurriedly stepped out of the car, and from a distance, she saw Cory holding Nathan at gunpoint.
Nathan! she shouted.
Nathan looked up abruptly, surprise and relief flickering in his eyes as he saw Lucinda standing unharmed not far away.
Cory hadnt even had the chance to capture Lucinda and the two kids at all.
As realization washed over him, Nathans face turned cold and he said, You tricked me.
Cory snorted, his face distorted as it twisted with arrogance.
Yes, look at you.
You care so much about her that you lose your calm just because you cant reach her.
Nathan fell into silence again.
The wound on Corys leg had been crudely treated, and the pain from the gunshot was severe.
Nathan knew he wouldnt be able to hold out for long.
Mrs.
Payne, long time no see, Cory said with a mocking tone. Taking two steps forward, Lucinda spoke calmly.
Cory, what do you want? As long as its within my power, Ill agree.
Corys sneer deepened.
I want to drink his blood and strip off his skin.
Because of him, I lost the love of my life! His eyes burned with madness as the guns muzzle wavered erratically.
In a split-second reaction, Nathan swiftly retaliated, delivering a quick kick to Corys wounded leg.
The pain shot through Cory, causing him to stumble back and lose his grip on the gun.
Nathan pivoted and swiftly kicked the weapon out of Corys hand.
Witnessing the sudden turn of events, Lonnie wasted no time and directed his men to apprehend Cory.
In a matter of moments, the tables had turned completely.
