Chapter 1200
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
He barged in and held Reneeâs shoulders, asking anxiously.
âIâm fine. Go and save Joanne now. Sheâs in great danger.â
Liam pressed the gun to the guardâs head and demanded, âWhereâs Joanne?â
âIâm not telling you anything, so you might as well kill me.â The guard tilted his head and closed his eyes, refusing to give in.
âYou!â Liam was greatly infuriated. The people in the fort had undergone high-intensity physical and mental training, so they were loyal to Benjamin and would never easily admit defeat.
âMaybe sheâs in the dismantling room,â Amber said hesitantly. âI once heard from Mateo that anyone who betrays my dad will be sent to the dismantling room. Their body parts will then be dismantled and sold.â
âWhat?â Renee clenched her fists and snarled indignantly, âThat old man is merciless!â
âMaybe thatâs why Joanne reported my dad. I didnât expect that⦠it would put her in such great danger.â Amber kept her head low. She did not approve of some of Benjaminâs actions, but as his daughter, she did not know how she could stop all this.
âThereâs no time to wonder. Letâs go to the dismantling room and save Joanne before your father sends his people here to stop us.â Renee scowled, wishing she could destroy this terrible place.
âYes, we can do that, but I heard that there are thirty-two dismantling rooms, and theyâre all over the fort. Whatâs more, this fort is 50,000 acres large,â Amber elaborated timidly.
Bewilderment and deep despair overcame Renee. It would be like looking for a needle in a haystack if they wanted to find Joanne!
âIt doesnât matter, letâs just go.â Liam realised how serious the issue was, and knew they had to leave now if they wanted to have a chance of saving her.
âYes, letâs go.â Renee nodded and suggested, âLetâs split up and look for her. Itâll be more efficient.â
âNo way!â Liam held Reneeâs hand and said firmly, âI finally rescued you. I donât want to part with you again.â
Disappointment and jealousy filled Amber when she saw Liam hold Reneeâs hand tightly.
âSheâs so lucky⦠The only time he notices me is when itâs for her.â
âHow about this? You guys go one way, Iâll go the other. After all, Iâm my dadâs only daughter, so nobody dares to touch me. I can go to any part of the fort quickly. Iâll contact you once I find her,â Amber said sincerely.
âThatâs a great idea. Thank you.â Liam agreed with Amberâs suggestion.
They went their separate ways and looked for Joanne in every room.
Meanwhile, Joanne was wearing only her intimates in the most secluded dismantling room.
She lay flat on the surgery table with her limbs tied up. The dazzling white light above her shone down, making her face look pale.
The person in a lab coat who was responsible for dismantling her body leaned over her, about to anaesthetise her.
âAny final words?â The man casually asked Joanne as he adjusted the syringe
