Chapter 379

“You really are Mila,” Murray repeated, his astonishment palpable.

Mila offered a helpless smile. “Silas outwits you by far. You possess bravery but lack strategy, leaving only brutality.”

Murray’s gaze turned fierce, his eyes ablaze with anger.

His subordinate returned with an update. “Mr. Manning, the speedboat is prepared.”

Mila addressed the group, “Don’t try to plant any bombs on the boat. Murray will be departing this island with us. We’ll release him at Dorzania airport.”

Upon hearing this, his subordinate dashed out immediately to disarm the explosives. Nathan asked softly, “Chubs, is everything under control?” Not comprehending Dorzanian, Nathan could only await Mila’s directives as he was unsure of the situation’s progress.

“Let’s wait a bit longer. He’s off to disarm the bomb,” Mila said as she patted Murray‘

Mila nodded.

Before long, the subordinate returned, panting. “It’s done.”

Mila and Nathan held their guns to Murray’s head, guiding him outside.

The island was tranquil at night, the moon casting its radiant glow, illuminating their path with clarity.

Lucas and Oliver, accompanied by several armed men, trailed behind until they reached the boat.

Nathan turned to Mila. “Can you steer the boat?”

She shook her head. Nathan handed her the gun. “Don’t worry. Just kill him if he sudden moves.”

Mila tensed. She gripped the gun tightly, aiming it meticulously at Murray’s head.

Oliver pressed down on his gun, his voice trembling as he asked, “What are you doing? Mr. Manning is still on the boat.”

Lucas roared, “I know Nathan. The moment he’s safe, he’ll go for Murray first. He won’t let him get away, and then it’ll be you and me.”

Oliver intervened once more, applying force to stop him. “You can kill Murray and Nathan, but you can’t touch Chubs.”

Oliver was knocked back.

Raising his gun, Lucas unleashed a flurry of shots toward the departing boat. The sound of Bunfire reverberated.

“Chubs, get down!” Nathan exclaimed, hurrying over to shield Mila. He used his body to cover her, guiding her to the floor of the boat.

The gunfire poured down like a relentless storm, without discrimination, until the bullets ran

out.

With a splash, Murray leaped off the boat.

Mila quivered in Nathan’s embrace, her body trembling from the fierce onslaught of gunfire. She struggled for breath and slowly regained her senses.

Urgently, she touched Nathan’s face. “Nate, are you okay? Are you hurt?”

Nathan’s breath was labored, his voice rough as he replied, “I’m alright. What about you? Are you injured?”

“I’m fine. Who was shooting? They were firing everywhere, even at Murray,” Mila said, still shaken.

“It had to be Lucas.”

“Why?”

Nathan sighed, resting his head on Mila’s shoulder, his voice weakening, “He’s been by my side for years. He probably anticipated my moves.”

“Murray seized the opportunity amidst the chaos and jumped into the water,” Mila said.
