Silly Bride Chapter 64
Chapter 64
As for the man in the pig mask saying that he wanted Xavier’s life earlier, it was merely an empty threat
to scare thetter.Unexpectedly, the man came with bombs.Having extorted twenty million in a single
go, he naturally didn’t want to die. Instead, he wanted to live a leisurely life with that windfall.“You win,
Xavier Fairchild! I don’t want to die yet! Everyone, hurry up and retreat!”When he had made a decision,
the other kidnappers breathed a sigh of relief and swarmed to the door.They all wished they had wings
and could immediately fly out from the wreck, away from that dangerous ce.s, they grew all the
more frantic in their anxiousness. All of a sudden, the man who was in the front realized that the door
couldn’t be opened.“F*ck! Thetch has rusted and couldn’t be budged!”“How d*mn useless! Kick it
with your leg if you can’t budge thetch! Are you f*cking stupid?”“Move, move! Let me have a go at it
since I’m strong!”Regretfully, that was an iron door and couldn’t be kicked open easily.When the first
person failed to kick open the door, a second person charged over while cursing. Things swiftly turned
chaotic.At just that precise moment, a smoke bomb rolled into the middle of the room without
warning.The hatch was still locked. There was only a tiny, broken window, so the cabin was almost an
entirely enclosed space right then. In a trice, ck smoke permeated the air.Smoke bombs were
harmful to the human body. Not only would it cause visual impairment, but it would also produce
massive amounts of irritating dust and toxic gas afterbustion.If inhaled inrge amounts, one
would likely be poisoned and fall unconscious.Winnie was closest to the window. In such a dangerous
situation, her first instinct was to make a break for it. But this time, she didn’t forget to snatch the
remote control from Xavier’s hand.As for his im of the remote control being connected to his
heartbeat, she absolutely didn’t believe such absurdity.Only that group of foolish kidnappers would fall
for his trick. If the bomb’s timer were truly connected to his heartbeat, the sensor must be attached to
his pulse like a bracelet worn at the wrist at all times. However, he was holding the remote control in his
palm. As such, how could it possibly be linked to his heartbeat?For that reason, she had no ns of
returning to save the man after climbing out through the window.That sc*mbag nted bombs on me
and was ready to sacrifice me anytime, so I’d be mad to care about him!But just as she got off the
wreck, she discovered that the bombs were fake.When she jumped off, one of the ss tubes got
loose and fell to the ground.It shattered into a million pieces. Yet, there was no explosion.On a closer
look, the blue liquid even contained glitter. It looked all the more like a piece of decoration instead of a
bomb.Argh! D*mn him! Winnie gritted her teeth.That fake bomb even fooled me! His acting earlier was
really realistic that it seemed just like the real thing!Livid, she nced back over her shoulder at the
wreck behind her.I still heard movement from within when I climbed out just now, but there’s nary a
sound now. Don’t tell me everyone inside has been poisoned to death? But that doesn’t make sense.
After all, it was just a smoke bomb, not a poisonous gas bomb.Just as she was nning to make her
way back, a car abruptly sped past her and screeched to a stop.Before she could make out the person
in the car, Christopher had already swung open the car door and gotten out.He looked Winnie up and
down, his brows knitting together. “Are you okay?” “I’m fine, but the others are still in there. Hurry up
and go with me for a look.”Suddenly, Christopher glimpsed the “bombs” on Winnie’s bulletproof vest.
“Wait! Stay still first. There are bombs on you?”“They’re fake. Why don’t you take a look?”Christopher
instantly crouched in front of Winnie. Only after checking them meticulously did he breathe a sigh of
relief. “Indeed, they’re fake. You’re really too gutsy.”“It’s a long story. Hurry up and call a few people to
kick the hatch open.”“Okay. Go and wait in the car first.”“No, it’s okay. I’ll tag along.”Christopher opened
his mouth, wishing to counter that it was dangerous.But on second thought, this is Winnie Gand. I’ve
never seen any woman as brave as her!He whipped out his gun and shielded Winnie behind him.
“What’s the situation like in there? How many people are there, and do they have weapons?”“There are
six kidnappers. Two of them have guns. Then, there’s a hostage and a benefactor. But before I came
out, someoneunched a smoke bomb. There’s no movement inside right now, so they might all have
passed out.”“Understood!” Christopher rushed to the front of the hatch with two SWAT officers and
kicked open the door in no time.The moment the door was opened, clouds of smoke poured out. One
could vaguely see a number of people lying around on the ground.Shortly after, other police officers
hastened over and carried the people in the cabin out.Thest person they carried out was
Yulissa.Winnie stared at the unconscious woman for a long while.Out of the blue, she asked
Christopher, “Oh yes, have you done a toxicology test on the blood sample I gave you previously?N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.
What are the results?”A frown marred Christopher’s countenance. “The results are as you expected.
She’s likely a long-time addict.”“Chris!” While they were talking, a SWAT officer headed toward
Christopher with a syringe and a small, silver briefcase in hand. “These were found inside a while
ago.”Christopher took the briefcase. As soon as he opened it and took a look, his brows creased
deeply, for there were dozens of medicine bottles arranged neatly in there.Winnie merely took a gander
before she likewise frowned. “There are a lot of drugs here. It makes me doubt the veracity of Yulissa’s
kidnapping. I think they might be in cahoots. Consequently, the kidnapping might have been a ruse.”“I’ll
interrogate them strictlyter.”“Okay.” Nodding, Winnie added, “I won’t be going to the police station to
give my testimony at that time. I’m still a missing person now, so I can’t make an appearance. You can
tell your colleagues that I’m your informant and needs to be protected. I believe you can still do as
much, yes, Captain Bet?”Although she was still wearing a mask, Christopher could see the
laughter dancing in her eyes. Unbidden, he smiled as well.“Don’t worry. I’ll protect your identity
well.”Winnie stretched out two fingers and saluted the man. “Great! You’re pretty handsome when you
smile, Captain Bet. You should consider smiling more often.”Christopher’s heart skipped a beat.
Just as he was about to say something, someone abruptly shouted, “Crap! The kidnappers jumped into
the river and escaped!”Christopher cast a nce at Winnie and jumped into the river before he had
time to say anything.Just then, Louis arrived with Xavier’s bodyguards. Josiah was also with them.They
headed straight for Xavier. When Josiah caught sight of the unconscious man, he opened the medical
box he carried everywhere.When he noticed Winnie standing around as though everything was fine, he
bellowed at her, “Why are you still spacing out? Come over here and lend me a hand!”
