Chapter 2272


    William''s fingers rapped against the wheelchair''s armrest. He lowered his eyes. It was as if he was


    contemting something as he said, “Nothing will happen to Francesca.”


    Monica had no idea what was going on in his mind. Even though she was worried, there was nothing


    she could do. With that, she retreated to the side silently.


    Hazel gazed at William. She couldn''t help but remark, “You are good at maintaining yourposure...”


    William didn''t respond. It seemed like Hazel''s words had fallen on deaf ears.


    “You''re meant to seed.” Hazel smiled as admiration filled her eyes. “However, maybe I can read this


    as a sign that you don''t like Francesca as much as you portray yourself to be. There must be some


    kind of misunderstanding during your previous disy of affection.”


    “She is going to be fine,” William stated abruptly. His eyes were still lowered as if he had just said that


    to himself.


    Hazel took that as the cue for her to leave him alone. She leaned against the sofa and continued


    scrolling through her phone.


    I''m waiting to see how things will turn out. Will Francesca leave the jail unharmed?


    La and Sloan managed to find Francesca''s jail cell. When La saw the fragile-looking Francesca


    lying on the bed, she called out, “Francesca!”


    “Ms. Felch!” Tears filled an agitated Sloan''s eyes.


    Francesca thought her mind was ying tricks on her. She froze when she turned her head and saw


    La and Sloan. “You guys...”


    “Let me rescue you from here, Ms. Felch!” Sloan aimed his gun at the cell''s lock before firing a few


    shots.


    “Leave!” Francesca shouted.


    The moment her words ended, countlesssers were aimed at Sloan and the rest.


    Stunned by the turn of events, La turned around to see a few dozen fully armed soldiers rushing in


    with guns to surround them.


    Even though they had already expected the oue, Sloan and the rest were still frustrated to be


    apprehended so early in their rescue mission.


    A subordinate thundered, “We are from the Lindberg family. Who dares to...”


    A shot was fired at his head before he could finish his sentence.


    The subordinate fell to the ground without any signs of struggle as life squeezed out of him in a second.


    Horrified, Sloan screamed, “Zolt!”


    “How could you...” Another subordinate gaped in disbelief. The Lindberg family was untouchable


    previously. No one dared to offend them. But now, it seemed like the Lindberg family was the target.


    “How dare you guys trespass into the jail? Do you guys have a death wish?” The leading military officer


    roared.


    “Don''t you guys do anything rashly!” Francesca supported her weak body as she walked over to the jail

    bar. She continued anxiously, “They have nothing to do with this. Do not harm these innocent people!”


    “We won''ty a hand on you, Ms. Felch. But it''s a whole different matter for these people.” The military


    officer mocked before pointing his gun at another subordinate of Sloan''s.


    “Stop!” Francesca and Sloan''s voices rang out at the same time. However, the military officer did not


    pause his action. He pulled the trigger straight away.


    “Morty!” A perturbed Sloan wanted to rush over and fight with the military officer.


    Dozens of guns immediately aimed at his head.


    Bang!


    The loud sound of gunfire disrupted Francesca''s words. Sloan fell to the ground as the shot hit him in


    his knees. Blood began oozing out of his wound.


    Francesca widened her eyes in disbelief. Co?tent оf NovelDrama.Org


    “Sloan...” La immediately tried to get Sloan up from the ground, but the guns were aimed at her now.


    “La...” Francesca panicked. She grabbed the jail bar and grumbled, “Don''t you guys do anything to


    her. I swear I will kill you guys if you do so!”


    Bang!
