Chapter 361: Already Settled
This was the second ti that Stanley faced this situation. The last ti was when the Brookes forced him to make a choice by holding him at gunpoint at their mansion in LA.
In fact, Stanley couldn’t guarantee that he could retreat safely from the storm of bullets. According to the experience and knowledge he had gained over the years, Lucas was the only one who could easily dodge bullets fired simultaneously by multiple gunn. Stanley could hardly imagine just how terrifying Lucas’s strength was.
Thus, he just said those words to deter the Wallaces from shooting.
The expression on Pierre’s face changed rapidly, and Stanley could tell that he was having an extrely complicated ntal battle.
From his point of view, he certainly didn’t want the Wallaces to gain such a powerful enemy.
Even the formidable Henry had been killed by a fatal slash to his throat. How could ordinary people like them be able to resist or even retaliate against such a terrifying and murderous figure?
However, Henry was a guest they invited from the Kingstons, yet he suddenly died in the Wallaces’ manor. If the Wallaces chose not to do anything about it and just let the murderer leave scot-free, they would definitely have to face the Kingstons’ wrath!
If the Kingstons beca enraged, it would no longer be sothing the Wallaces can solve easily. The entire family might even perish!
The gaze in Pierre’s eyes changed, but in the end, he gritted his teeth and said, “No, you can’t leave!”
Stanley’s eyes were quickly full of murderous intent. “In that case, you’re choosing to beco my enemy, huh?”
He moved his fingers, and the dagger he just used to kill Henry began to rotate at his fingertips again while flickering with an icy cold light.
At the sa ti, Stanley scanned his surroundings quickly to plan his next move.
Looking at the sharp dagger on Stanley’s fingertips, many of the Wallaces seed terrified. The scene of Henry having his throat slit was way too grueso and shocking, so much so that they couldn’t forget it at all.
Pierre once again seed to be conflicted, but he soon suppressed his feelings of hesitation and said resolutely, “You killed Henry Salve, who worked for the Kingstons. I can’t let you go just like that! We won’t just kill you. We only want to keep you behind and take you to the Kingstons so that you can explain to them yourself!”
Stanley sneered. “You want to keep behind? Let’s see if you have what it takes! But you better think this through carefully. Once you decide to open fire, it ans you’ve chosen to beco my enemy, and I will absolutely not show you any rcy!
“This dagger I’m holding will definitely pierce through your throats when you shoot! You’d better think carefully about what exactly you want to do!”
The dagger in his hand flashed with cold glints of light as he waved it through the air.
Pierre imdiately felt an extrely cold sensation on his neck, as if Stanley had already placed the dagger against his throat.
He was stuck in a tough dilemma. As the helmsman of the family, his decision concerned his own life, as well as those of the entire Wallace family. So he had no choice but to consider carefully before making a decision.
At this mont, Darren inched close to Pierre and said eagerly, “Dad, you can’t let him off! Otherwise, the Kingstons will definitely hold us responsible. When the ti cos, none of us will be able to escape!
“I don’t believe that there’s really soone in this world who isn’t afraid of getting shot by guns! He must be lying and boasting just to scare us. Any one of us here can fire several bullets through his body! Even if we can’t kill on the spot, he will definitely sustain injuries. Even if he can fly, he won’t be able to escape our premises!
“I don’t believe that he can really hurt you! There are so many bodyguards in front of you to protect you. No matter what, he can’t do anything to you!”
Pierre quickly thought about his words and nodded lightly. But at this mont, Stanley suddenly stomped his foot against the ground and began moving!
“Shoot!” Pierre imdiately yelled, his heart skipping a beat.
But humans are not machines after all. From the mont they received Pierre’s command to the ti they pulled the trigger, only a split second passed.
But in this split second, Stanley had already darted past them and vanished without a trace.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
...
A series of gunshots that sounded like firecrackers filled the air, but none of the bullets hit anything.
During this very short period of ti, Stanley didn’t retreat and instead charged straight toward Henry’s villa.
He had already observed the terrain outside and the layout of the houses. Because they were at the entrance of the villa, there was plenty of space and very few obstructions. The object nearest to him that could provide cover was the large marble statue more than ten ters away.
So the villa, which was only a few ters away from him, was the best choice.
After dodging into the villa extrely quickly to evade the bullets, Stanley ducked into the corner of the wall where the bullets wouldn’t be able to reach him.
Pierre knew they were in trouble and hurriedly roared in exasperation, “Chase after him!”
The gunn imdiately acknowledged the order and dashed into the villa with their pistols in hand. Then they fired several shots in a row at the corner that Stanley was hiding in.
But Stanley obviously wouldn’t stay in place. He was a forr leader of the assault team of the Falcon Regint and an expert in assassination and quick escapes. He had long moved away from his initial spot, causing the gunn to miss again.
“Quick! Find him imdiately. You must seize him no matter what. I want him dead or alive!” Pierre hollered furiously at the top of his lungs.
If they couldn’t find Stanley and kill him imdiately, none of the Wallaces would be able to fight back against him, given how Stanley had been able to kill the formidable Henry.
The thought of having such a terrifying enemy that could kill them at any ti made Pierre turn pale and break out in a cold sweat.
But after searching the villa and even the entire Wallace estate, they still couldn’t find Stanley, which was frustrating and to their dismay.
Stanley had escaped!
...
Lucas, who had just bathed Alia, received a short text ssage on his phone. There were only four words—”It has been settled.”
