Chapter 482 – An Unbreakable Vow with the Heartless Tycoon

Not only Leilani, Olivia, and the maid were also surprised. They screamed in low voices.

“It’s me.”

His deep voice, well-fit suit, and timed appearance in the dark and damp bas.e.m.e.nt like a god suggested who he was.

Leilani looked behind him. He was alone, and Tinder didn’t come, “Why are you here?”

He said briefly, “I got worried.” He would never leave her in such a dangerous position.

“You’re a huge target, you know?”

“So I can cover your back,” then he protected Leilani in front of her, “have you ever seen the movie, The Professional?”

Leilani nodded. Was he trying to make the situation less intense? Why would he bring up the movie?

“Please bring my ashes with you. You can sprinkle them at bad guys. Let me protect for the last time.”

This was her favorite line. She knew his heart. She went next to him and held his hand, “Together.”

“Pss,” Olivia said, “the man who only knows to be sweet on the mouth, psst–“

Olivia couldn’t say more in the dark passage. Waylen didn’t mind. At such a dangerous place, the priority was safety.

They went along the long and winding paths. Every ten meters, a new crossroad appeared.

The maid was extra careful. Her every step was tentative. When she chose the road, she tried to walk the right one.

After twenty minutes or so, they were in front of a door as they wished.

The maid was released, “We’re here.”

Leilani heard the water running.

“Where is this place?”

“This is a sewer. Outside is a port that is connected to the dock. This is the closest way if you choose to leave by sea.”

The maid took out the king to open the rotten lock.

Leilani quietly went inside her boots for her pistol—

She couldn’t trust the maid. If she wanted to do something, she could act if Waylen didn’t act in time.

She looked at Waylen, and he had another hand in his pockets.

After the door was opened, the light came in.

The sound of water was obvious. The water in the sewer was broad. A small speedboat was there.

Another man was waiting there. He looked at them, and Waylen was there. He was frozen for a bit but soon said, “You’re finally here. Come on. We’ve been waiting for almost half an hour. The dock is about to exchange shits. If we miss the time, we have to wait until night.”

Waylen wanted to hold Olivia up on the speedboat. But she ignored him and gave her hand to the man on the boat.

Leilani held hers on Waylen’s and got on.

She found there were crossroads in the sewer. There were not only cunning devices but also alligators. If they chose the wrong way, they were dead.

They were at the exit leading to the port.

Two giant stone lions guarded it with round balls in their mouths.

Twitching the ball in the middle and the door would open.

Leilani noticed the man wore gloves to twist the ball.

She wanted to ask, and Waylen whispered, “They’re poison-proof. The balls are laced with poison.”

Leilani gasped. She didn’t realize every device was fatal. Who knew the balls in the lion’s mouth was poisonous? If they let them twist it, she wouldn’t think twice to do it.

The big iron gate was slowly emerging from underneath the water. It had sharp barbs at the bottom. If one got in contact with it, the gate would probably fall down, and the barbs would pierce the scalp.

She finally realized Waylen was right to come with them. She was scared.

Leilani frowned. The more she witnessed along the way, the more spooky and horrible she found the presidential house was. She had no idea how Andrew got out of here at first. But whoever did was so lucky.

There were so many guards that one couldn’t get in or not.

The speedboat went into the port. They saw the sunshine.

Leilani breathed as hard as she could because it was the air outside. It was salty. But she felt reborn.

But it didn’t last long. There was sudden turbulence, and the bost started to get bumpy.

Waylen held her tightly in her arms. But Olivia was not so fortunate. After one bump, she half-knelt on the ground. Leilani reached out to her. But Waylen took her hand back in case she couldn’t reach and offered his hands with reluctance.

Olivia looked at him and ignored his hand. She held the handrail and got up.

Leilani held back her laughter. How much did she dislike Waylen?

The speedboat was at the iron gate on the fast water. Leilani looked at the direction of the running water. The presidential house was built at the feet of a mountain. The sea was at its feet.

The bodyguard said it was the last exit. He opened the gate, got off the boat and closed the door quickly.

Bang He suddenly shot the propeller several times. The boat was bumpy. Water started to rush in because the propeller was sabotaged.

Leilani found two water reserves with white fogs.

She only noticed more smoke came out when some plants got in when the door was opened.

It was acid…

On the top of Leilani’s head, he wanted to shove them in. After the water got in, they’d be drowned. Maybe some device would let the liquids in the reserves in they would be left to bones.

Leilani targeted the man. Waylen was faster and shot on his legs. So he couldn’t run.

“Who sent you?”

On the rocky boat, Leilani watched as he struggled to get up and come towards them for some device.

Bang Waylen shot more at his legs. He was on the ground. But his hands were still moving. He crawled forward.

Waylen held the iron gate. If they wanted to open the gate, he needed to stand on the narrow side next to the reserves. It was rushed by the water for a long time and was slippy. He would fall into the acid pond easily.

Waylen looked at Leilani with a stern look, “Are you scared?”

Leilani bit her teeth. She wasn’t so much worried about herself as her mother. She held her hands tightly, “Mom, get up first. Careful, it’s slippery.”

They forged a straight line.

Olivia bit her teeth. The boat was shaking too hard for her to hesitate. She got out from the side and stood on the line next to the reserves. Suddenly she slipped…

Leilani screamed, and Waylen reached out to save Olivia. Luckily, Olivia fell to the other side of the water reservoir. If she fell into the reservoir, it’s hard to imagine what would happen.

After Olivia stabilized, she stood up again with the power of Waylen and then leaned against the iron door along the edge.

Leilani took a deep breath, followed her mother’s footsteps, and walked carefully.

The three soon clung to the edge of the wall on the right side of the iron gate. Outside, the bodyguard was still crawling forward tenaciously. Waylen shot him directly in the head.

“Don’t look”, Waylen told them that the scene was too bloody, and he reminded them to open the door later.

Waylen had just watched the bodyguard press the switch, so he naturally knew where the switch was. They didn’t hesitate to open the iron door. As the iron door rose, the outside world completely appeared in front of them.

There were dense plants outside. The sun shone down from the seams of the trees.

Not far from the ground, the bodyguard was lying in the blood.

Olivia could not help screaming. Leilani reached over and blindfolded her eyes, and Waylen blindfolded her eyes.

She took his hand away and said, “I’m fine.”

Suddenly, the bushes began to rustle, as if someone was hiding in it.

“Who’s in there?” At the same time, Waylen and Leilani took out their guns and aimed at the bushes alertly.

There was a burst of applause in the bushes.

A tall figure riding a brown horse went out.
