Seeing the gun pressed against Meredith’s head, Terrence’s heart leapt into his throat. Little Lucky started crying and calling for his mama, making Terrence’s heart ache even more.


    “Let Meredith go, and I’ll let you leave,” Terrence said, ncing at Visnove. Visnove understood and ordered through his Bluetooth earpiece, “Everyone retreat to the deck and let Reginald leave.”


    Reginald used Meredith as a shield, hiding behind her while two assassins guarded his back. Visnove couldn’t guarantee a clean shot to take down Reginald. With the typhoon approaching, he couldn’t afford to waste time.


    After giving the order, Visnove advised Reginald, “You have ten minutes before the typhoon hits. If you want to leave, head in the eight o’clock direction; otherwise, you won’t escape this sea.”


    Heading in that direction would avoid the typhoon’s storm circle, the safest area. Reachingnd was impossible now; it was too far for ten minutes.


    During the mission, the Dark Knights had already identified the safest area in the sea. Once the mission ended, they would all move towards the safe zone.


    Reginald didn’t trust the Dark Knights’ words, thinking it was a trap. He demanded, “Retreat one kilometer away first.”


    Meredith looked at Terrence. Her panicked heart calmed as she smiled at him reassuringly. She knew she might not leave here today. She didn’t say a word or leave anyst messages because she knew it would make him less willing to leave.


    If the typhoon came, no one would be able to leave.


    For Meredith’s safety, Terrence had Grandma Sterling and Little Lucky board their speedboat and then retreated. Reginald took Meredith to the cockpit, restarted the ship, and quickly sailed away.


    But this was just a smokescreen. After starting the ship, Reginald took Meredith onto a speedboat, leaving two assassins on the ship to confuse the Dark Knights.


    The ship was too big; Reginald was cautious and unsure if Dark Knights were hiding on board. Taking Meredith on a speedboat was safer.


    The Dark Knights didn’t actually retreat far. Terrence couldn’t just watch Reginald take Meredith away; he followed in another speedboat. The sea was pitch ck, making it hard to see anything.


    Seeing that therge ship wasn’t heading in the eight o’clock direction as Visnove had said made Terrence even more anxious.


    With the typhoon imminent and time running out, Visnove couldn’t risk his brothers’ lives any further. The attack on Dark Knights Ind years ago had been a harsh lesson; they valued their brothers’ lives highly.


    Visnove recalled his men and brought Little Lucky and Grandma Sterling onto theirrge ship. Seeing that Terrence hadn’t returned, Visnove chased after him in a speedboat. “Five minutes until the typhoon hits! Terrence, there’s no time! Retreat now!”


    The wind had picked up on the sea, waves surging violently. Terrence looked ahead into the darkness with determination. “I must bring Meredith back. You take your brothers and retreat.”


    He couldn’t just watch Meredith face danger. If Reginald took her away, there might still be a chance to rescue herter. But if they encountered the typhoon, there would be no chance at all.


    Knowing he couldn’t persuade him otherwise, Visnove said, “Reginald headed in the three o’clock direction. Terrence, think carefully; chasing him will only lead to one oue.”


    “Thanks,” Terrence replied without hesitation and sped up to pursue them.? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.


    Visnove didn’t chase further; he had family and many brothers to consider. Knowing the dangers of the typhoon, he couldn’t risk chasing after them.


    Terrence was clearly heading towards death.


    Visnove turned back to theirrge ship and ordered it to move into the safe zone.


    As their ship turned around, Visnove nced in Terrence’s direction before looking back at Little Lucky sleeping in Grandma Sterling’s arms with deep emotion in his heart.
