A man's hushed voice sounded in her ear, "Quick, go."
Before she could even think, her body was pulled up and quickly hidden behind a pillar.
George Field was already in a killing frenzy. "Kill Thomas Shannon and I'll reward you handsomely!"
"Yes, Mister!"
His attendants swarmed Thomas Shannon. BANG! BANG! BANG! Bullets struck the pillar, sending sparks flying that scorched the back of Sophie's hand. She withdrew her hand as if she'd been electrocuted.
Thomas Shannon pulled her into his embrace, his thin lips curving into a smirk as he whispered by her ear, "Little maniac, are you scared?"
"...What?"
She raised her head in surprise. How could he ask such pointless questions at a time like this?
The next second, she saw Thomas Shannon take a wireless earpiece from his shirt collar and say, "Charlie River, make a move."
Charlie River's voice quickly came through the wireless earpiece, "Yes, Young Master. Young Master, be careful!"
