    Matthew was well aware of that. Letting that man take Lucy away might be dangerous, but stopping him was even more dangerous. Matthew found himself in a difficult position.


    "Of course, I know that. Listen to me. We only have one chance now. Do you see that? He''s heading toward a car parked by the road."


    Matthew squinted his eyes, already formting a n in his mind. Kent noticed it too, and his eyes lit up as he said, "I understand. Mr. Leon, are you saying..."


    "Yes, he''s going to get into the car to escape. There''ll be a short window of vulnerability then. As soon as that happens, knock the knife out of his hand and rescue Lulu. Take her away immediately. I''ll deal with him."


    This was their only chance. If they missed it, it would be impossible to catch up to him after he got into the car.


    Based on this and previous assassination attempts, Charlotte seemed determined to have Lucy killed.


    "But Mr. Leon, we''re too far from him. What if..."


    The assistant wanted to express his concerns. What if they failed to knock the knife out of his hand or if they missed? Would that not put Lucy in greater danger?


    However, Matthew''s expression was stern, and he growled. "There is no ''what if''. We must seed!"


    He could not imagine any other oue. He was determined to rescue his wife and ensure her safety. That was his promise to her.


    Seeing the determination in Matthew''s eyes, Kent was deeply moved. Without another moment of hesitation, he resolutely dered, "Yes, sir. We''ll do everything in our power to protect Mrs. Leon."


    The group solemnly stared at the sinister man while Matthew clenched and unclenched the car key in his hand.


    He did not have any weapons on him, but the car key had a bit of weight to it.


    At one point, he had taken up shooting lessons out of interest and for his own safety.This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    His aim was decent, averaging a


    score of 9.5 out of 10. As long as there was a window where theman lifted his hand or opened the car door, Matthew could attack.


    Once the knife left Lucy, he would aim either for the knife or the man''s head, seizing any opportunity to save her.


    Under the watchful gaze of the onlookers, the man continued to retreat and inched closer to the car.


    With a wicked grin, he reached for his car keys to open the door.


    He did not want to take a gamble with his life, so he nned to take Lucy to a ce where he would be safe before dealing with her.


    Before he was safe, he dared not let his guard down even for a moment. As he reached for his car keys, the handholding the knife showed no signs of letting go.


    However, before he could even retrieve his car keys, the window to his car slowly rolled down.


    "Who the fuck are you? Why are you in my car?"


    The man was taken aback, clearly caught off guard by this unexpected turn of events. He grew agitated.


    Matthew and the others noticed that he had let down his guard, so they took a few steps forward.


    A slender, delicate hand emerged from the car window. It was holding a gun.


    "Don''t move, or you''ll die." Despite her charming demeanor, her words carried a deadly threat.


    With a gun pointed at his forehead,


    the man could not help but step


    back. He furiously shouted, "How do you have a gun? Fuck, you teamed up with those guys! So you knew about this operation all along! Who betrayed us?"


    When people encountered unexpected situations, they often reacted in unexpected ways.


    The man clearly misunderstood, thinking that the woman in the car was allied with Matthew and his men.
