William snorted and said, “Don’t overestimate yourself, young lady. You’re just a prop. That boy is the target.”
Anna was ready to say something when she observed Emily winking at her. She abruptly realized she shouldn’t tell him that information.
By then, those few people had moved to the trunk. The two boxes of gold bars emitted a sun-like brilliance, causing these greedy people’s eyes to light up. They all understood, though, that if they couldn’t get out of here, they wouldn’t be able to get any of it.
Then William said, “Bring the boxes to the front and carry them to the ship when we arrive at the dock.”
One of the men quickly shut the box. He attempted to lift it and said, “It’s far too heavy. It will take at least two people to lift it.”
The two boxes included 400 gold bars weighing several hundred pounds each. As a result, it was difficult for a single person to carry it.
William frowned and let go of his hand, saying, “That guy has passed out, so get him into the car. Fine, I’ll let this woman go.” William then let go of Anna. She realized why Emily wouldn’t let her speak at that point.
Wayne knew they couldn’t carry two boxes of gold bars. Besides, five of them, including Ryan, couldn’t fit in one car. So, as long as William didn’t know who she was, he’d have to let her go.
Anna stood in the same spot as the car drove away, her legs unable to move. She was indeed very nervous right now. Honestly, no one would be calm in that situation. Seeing that, Wayne rushed to her side, hugged her tightly, and murmured, “Anna, it’s okay.” His voice was shaky, and he didn’t appear as composed as he had been.
Anna took along time to come to her senses. “What about Ryan?” she asked, clutching the cuffs of Wayne’s coat.
Wayne replied grimly, “We’ll bring him back.”
The wind blew in as the white Porsche sped down a side road along the highway that led to the river. William sat in the passenger seat and called someone, “Yeah, pick us up at the dock in twenty minutes. We’re almost there.”
“Oh, crap! We’re out of gas,” the man driving said urgently as the phone hung up
The petrol gauge had turned red, and the car was slowing down. The car came to a complete stop within minutes.
William was beyond enraged. He slammed the door and said, “f**k! They fooled me!” Then, several black cars approached them. After those cars stopped, multiple security with rifles stepped down from them and encircled William’s car.
“Don’t come any closer!” William yelled. He then got out of the car and dragged Ryan out of the rear seat. William had one hand around his neck and a revolver aimed at him in the other.
“Ifyou guys come over here, I’ll kill him,” he said.
“I don’t believe you dare do it.” Wayne’s voice was extremely loud in the open wilderness. He stepped out of the crowd as he spoke. He was dressed in a custom-made overcoat that made him appear quite fit
“PUL Kill him right now!” William threatened again.
Wayne said indifferently, “Whatever. I’ve already taken away the person I wanted to save, so I don’t care who you want to kill. I’m not a cop.”
William asked, wide-eyed, “Who? You’re talking about that woman?”
“She’s my fiancee,” Wayne said with a smile.
When William heard it, he remembered something: Anna had shouted a name when Wayne had just stepped out. He froze. He looked at Wayne for a time before laughing and asking, “You’re Wayne?”
Wayne said calmly, “You know me? Well, then you should know what @ person I am. I’m not interested in the young man you caught. But if he dies, my fiancee will be heartbroken. That way, you can’t get away with it”
Suddenly, William relaxed and said, “Wow, you really love her!” He fixed his gaze on Wayne as if he could deduce something from his attractive features. Then he asked meaningfully, “Wayne, you should let me go. Otherwise, you will get your karma. Do you know who I am?”
Though confused, Wayne frowned and did not say anything.
At that moment, a car stopped in the distance. Jennie got out of the car and ran towards them, but the bodyguard stopped her. She heard their conversation, and she shouted at Wayne, “Wayne, don’t listen to him! He’s a psycho!”
Seeing Jennie, William laughed wickedly. He laughed loudly and said in a voice so loud that it echoed through the wilderness, “Wayne, you’re going to love this secret. I’m your biological father.”
B wetina revine “
Hi, my dear readers! Do you enjoy reading the book so far? So, William told Wayne that he’s his biological father, which would happen sooner or later. How do you think Wayne will react to William’s words? And what do you guys think he will do to William? Please leave your comments. I’d appreciate it if you follow this book and share it with others.
Many thanks!
Wayne raised his eyebrows in surprise. Jennie then seemed to lose all hope. She shouted with all her strength at William in the distance, “You bastard! Stop talking nonsense!”
On the other hand, William scoffed, glanced at Wayne, and said, “Thirty years ago, your mother was going to marry me. However, she lied to me. She wasn’t even a Wright; she’d been adopted. In fact, your grandfather adopted her so she could marry James when she came of age All of my efforts that year were futile! Later, your mother became pregnant with you, my child. James beat me when he found out aboutit, yet he still wanted to raise you. He raised you while I was away from home for all these years. And look how successful you are; he sure did a great parenting* job!”
“Are you done?” Wayne said at this point, and he appeared to regain his composure. Wayne didn’t react much as William spoke, as if he didn’t believe what he was saying. He just looked at William with contempt.
“You should have given me that money because I gave you your life. You should be thankful that I left you in time! Otherwise, you would not have received any money from the Wrights.” William said smugly as he looked at Wayne.
Wayne sneered and exclaimed, “It appears 400 gold bars are insufficient. You should have taken half of what I own.”
“I’m delighted you think so,” William said shamelessly.
Anna stood by Jennie’s side, holding her cold hand. She scowled, unwilling to believe such a jerk as William existed in the world.
Meanwhile, Wayne stood firm, saying, “But it appears you won’t have a chance to enjoy it,” his low voice resonated through the countryside.
As he finished speaking, two men stepped out of the Porsche behind William . One fought with the three gang members while the other punched William hard.
William fired a shot in the blink of an eye. The bullet flew out toward the crowd, but Emily dodged it in time. She quickly broke William’s wrist, causing him to scream. Emily then kicked him so hard that he collapsed and couldn’t move.
Ryan fell back in Emily’s arms as if he was already unconscious. When Emily noticed that he appeared terribly weak, she stamped fiercely on William’s face and yelled, “How dare you touch my man?! Asshole, go to helt!”
At that point, a man next to Wayne approached her and said, “Enough, Emily! Get him cuffed and out of here. Or you will be punished for lynching abuse.*’
Emily frowned and reluctantly stopped. The man who ordered her to stop was actually a SWAT officer disguised as a bodyguard. His two colleagues then approached, handcuffed William, and led him into the limo’s rear.
As for Anna, she didn’t know Wayne planned the whole thing until he saved her. Wayne had no intention of letting William go from the start. Once William arrived at the dock and managed to escape, it would not be an easy task to track him down and punish him
So, Wayne planned to entice them with something else. He offered them gold bars to make them want to leave as soon as possible. Because the gold bars were way too heavy, they’d have to leave one of Anna or Ryan behind that way. William thought that Ryan was more valuable, so he let go of Anna. Following that, Wayne requested that the SWAT team disguise themselves as his bodyguards.
William knew that the cops had to follow the regulations and could not even shoot the kidnappers until the last moment. As a result, he was more scared of Wayne. He was afraid that Wayne didn*t care for Ryan, which might make him at a disadvantage.
Later, Ryan was taken to the ambulance by paramedics, and Emily followed him. Everyone engaged in the case went to the police station to make their statements.
