Chapter 593
Just as they were about to get to the main point, the chauffeur suddenly spoke up. “Boss, the route up
ahead has been blocked off due to the heavy fog, so all outbound vehicles have to change course.”
Quinton’s hand was on Sophia’s safety shorts; he was about to pull them down, but he stiffened upon
hearing the chauffeur’s words. Quinton got up a few momentster to put on hisbat uniform and
picked up his weapon—arge caliber submachine gun. He strapped on a variety of other weapons
before he pulled a gas mask over his face.
Right then, Quinton dropped a coat on top of Sophia. He picked her up and helped her into it. “Get out of
here through the nearest exit, and keep your guard up.”
She waspletely limp like a doll as he held her. Fully dressed for battle with that weighty gas mask on
his face, he was armed to the teeth as well. Quinton gazed at Sophia, thetter being near him. She had
dressed up nicely, but her pretty face was a mess right now with visible tear streaks on it. He pulled his
gas mask off and kissed her deeply. He wanted to hug her, but there was a cold submachine gun
between them. Quinton couldn’t put down his gun, but he wanted to hug her as well.
As long as we survive the night, she’ll be mine forever!
Quinton gently ced Sophia onto the backseat and buckled her seatbelt. The whirring of helicopter
des could be heard above the car as he did so.
Quinton’s expression took an ugly turn, while Sophia’s eyebrows shot up into her hairline. Did someone
come to rescue her?
A cold and emotionless male voice then red from some speakers. “You have been surrounded,
Quinton; resistance is futile. We’d advise you to put down your weapons, stop the car, and surrender.”
The voice seemed toe from above them; it was from the helicopter hovering up in the sky. Sophia
was delighted since someone had actuallye to save her. But then, she thought of something
important—the Phantom Wolf had a bomb on him. If he detonated it, everyone in the vicinity would die
for certain.
She could feel her own body shaking involuntarily, but she had no way of controlling it. It felt as though
her body could not stop doing it.
It was evident that the people surrounding them also knew about the situation of the bomb, for they still
hadn’t opened fire yet.
The Phantom Wolf’s car forged ahead. They got out of the nearest exit and made it to the highway,
continuing to a vige under the cover of the night.

They had already made their way out of Bayside City proper. All that surrounded them now were a few
farming settlements and some fields. From what Sophia could see through the rearview mirror, the
Phantom Wolf had many of his men and cars here.
They had captured many hostages from the vige before leaving the settlement and heading to an open
field outside of the city. A private airfield could be seen in the distance, while a private ne approached
them.
Linus’s helicopter was a medium-sized passenger ne. It was a rare make, and its interior had been
remodeled. Not only did it have a pool, but it also had a meeting room and other amenities as befitting of
his status.
The car stopped atst. Quinton carried Sophia out of the car, tying the sex toys he had brought along to
experiment with around Sophia’s waist. When they boarded the ne, he would finish what he had
started.
It was freezing. Although Sophia was wrapped in a coat, her bare feet were on the verge of being frozen.
She leaned herself against the Phantom Wolf’s shoulder, her arms dangling weakly downward.
asionally, a hand would brush against the cold and firm surface of his bullet vest.
When they got out of the car, she could hear the sound of countless people crying. It was probably the
hostages. Mixed among the weeping was an elderly man, but his robust voice hurled insults.
“You whippersnapper, you’d let me go if you have the guts to! If we were to face each other in a fight, this
old man here will let you have 10 free wins out of 80 rounds!”
It was Old Master Fletcher—he had been captured by the Phantom Wolf as well. No wonder the soldiers
hadn’t made a move; Mark had been taken as a hostage by the Phantom Wolf!
Wait a minute—Mark is typically under heavy protection at the militarypound. How did he get
kidnapped?
Mark was tied to a wheelchair, and a huge bomb was strapped to his chest. He kept kicking as he hurled
his abuse. When he noticed that the woman in Phantom Wolf’s arms looked familiar, he took a closer
look and recognized her. In an instant, his anger red.
“It’s you, Sophia! You craven sc*m, why do you have her with you? If there’s something you want to
prove, juste at me!”
As the Phantom Wolf passed Sophia over to another person, the door to the ne’s cargo hold slowly
lowered. Now, the cars and the people could be loaded onto the ne.
Quinton had a cruel smile on his face as he peeled his mask off and approached Mark. He crouched
down and patted the old man on the shoulder. “I have to thank her for making it possible to capture you,
old man. If it hadn’t been for her, I wouldn’t have known about your whereabouts!”
Mark was enraged. “What nonsense are you spouting? Sophia’s not that kind of person!”
Mark rarely left the militarypound; he had only followed Woody out of thepound because
Woody was very insistent about seeing the ocean. That was how he ended up being captured by the
Phantom Wolf by the ocean and taken hostage.
“Of course she’s not. Even so… times have changed. Speaking of modern technology, I just needed to
find an opportunity to imnt a listening device under her skin without her knowledge, and I was able to
find out whatever information I needed.”
Sophia felt her entire being go cold that instant; it was as though she had been doused with cold water.
When did he imnt that listening device under her own skin? Was it during that jog at night?
No, the Phantom Wolf wouldn’t have had the chance to that day—it had to be some other time.
Suddenly, a thought struck her. She recalled the exact day; Sophia had brought Nichs with her to visit
Linus back then. Both Linus and Nichs had gone into the workshop while she nodded off in the living
room. The Phantom Wolf had suddenly charged in, and she knew nothing after that. When she woke up,
she found Michael by her side while she was on the couch in Linus’s home.
She thought it was an extremely realistic dream, but now, it turned out that it wasn’t a dream at all… It
was something that actually happened in real life!
Linus had mentioned before that those imnted with those micro devices would die if they didn’t get
medical attention in time, but the Phantom Wolf still lived. That was because he wasn’t saved by just
anyone; Linus was the one who had saved him.
The Phantom Wolf had been in Linus’s home that day, and the cutting edge listening device was
something that only Linus had!
Linus was the financial backer behind the Phantom Wolf!
Everything had been a lie. Linus had deliberately approached Sophia and Michael in effort to be
closer to the pair, and the information he obtained from the listening device was so that he and the
Phantom Wolf could take down the Fletchers.
Sophia closed her eyes, leaving only tears of regret and anger behind. She understood atst that
everything had been a lie; all the niceness and goodness was an borate illusion. Her ignorance and
naivete had brought suffering to everyone, and she had hurt Old Master Fletcher too.
The door to the cargo hold was now fully lowered, and Phantom Wolf members bundled all the hostages
into the ne. Meanwhile, Sophia was ced with Mark. They were the biggest draws here, which made
everyone else quiet down.
Soon after that, cars burst past the forest surrounding the airfield. In the blink of an eye, the airfield was
completely surrounded by cars and people. Both members of the underworld and men of thew were
here; there were even foreign troops present. Countless gunmen already had their guns locked onto the
Phantom Wolf members.
The flight systems on Linus’s ne had been jammed from a distance, making it unavable for takeoff.
The entire group seemed to have their wings clipped, but the Phantom Wolf still was as fearless as ever.
He ced Sophia on a wheelchair and tied a bomb to her. Then, he fastened the detonator to her ankle.
If it touched the ground, everyone would die.
Mark was still furious as he yelled, “You son of a b*tch! If you’ve got a problem,e at me! I’m telling
you toe at me! Just you wait—my children and grandchildren will never let you see the end of it!”
