Chapter 65:
Kaiden couldn’t understand what had just happened. His face was battered and bruised. Just as he looked up, he
saw Norah pointing a gun at Curt’s forehead. She seemed eerily calm. He didn’t know if Norah could use the gun,
but her confidence unsettled him.
Juan slowly stood up. His gun, which had been aimed at Kaiden, shifted to Norah. “Let go of him or I'll shoot
you!” he threatened.
Norah adjusted her stance, ensuring Curt becher perfect shield, standing at the car door. “If you don’t want
him to die, drop your weapons!” she commanded.
“Con! | bet you don’t even know how to use a gun?” Mylo asked nervously. “Surrender your weapon, and no
one will get hurt.”
Norah burst out laughing. She casually released the safety and pressed the gun harder against Curt’s forehead.
“Want to guess whether | can use a gun or not?” The click of the safety distinctly echoed.
“Drop it! Drop your weapons, hurry up!” Curt yelled, scared.
Juan and Mylo exchanged glances. Slowly, they placed their guns on the ground.

“Now, those two guns,” Norah said calmly.
Kaiden released his grip on Curt’s legs and shook his head to stay alert. Ignoring the taste of blood in his mouth,
he staggered over and picked up the two guns.
“I've got them,” Kaiden said, holding them firmly.
“Co-drive,” Norah ordered.
“Okay,” Kaiden replied, his vision blurry from the injury to his eye.

He grabbed the two guns and slowly settled into the driver's seat.
“Miss, we've done what you said. Please let go of us,” Curt pleaded.
Mylo and Juan chimed in, “Miss, we're sorry. We shouldn't have involved you in this mess. Please release him, we
are begging you. Please.”
“Let go?” Norah snapped venomously. “You had other ideas a while ago.”
Mylo and Juan exchanged glances. Norah was right. They had indeed planned to hurt her, but they didn’t dare
admit it.
Juan banged his head on the ground. “Miss, we were stupid not to realize your strength. We're only working for
someone else. Spare him, please.”
The car key was still in the ignition. The engine roared as Kaiden twisted the key.
“Miss Wilson, what do we do now?” Kaiden asked.
Norah gripped Curt’s neck with her right hand and pressed the gun against his forehead. “Drive,” she
commanded.
Norah released her right hand and shifted her position to throw Curt out of the car. However, something
unexpected happened.
Suddenly, Mylo drew a dagger and slashed it toward Norah's hand, aiming to disarm her.
Norah had no choice but to let go of the gun to avoid the attack. She shoved Mylo away and quickly slammed
the car door shut once she had the chance.
In the car, Norah commanded, “Drive!”
The gun slipped from her grasp, and Juan rushed to pick it up, firing shots at the departing car. The impact on
the rear wheel caused Kaiden to struggle with the steering, resulting in the white sedan skidding and colliding
with an abandoned wall.
Norah was thrown forward but managed to brace herself against the rear seat. Kaiden tried to restart the vehicle
but couldn't drive any further. He pounded the steering wheel in frustration. “The damn thing isn’t moving!”
They had only driven about ten meters when the tcaught up with them.
“Running away? Huh?” Curt grinned. “What's stopping you now?”
Curt aimed his gun at Norah's head. “So what if you can shoot? Is your gun as fast as mine?”
Kaiden locked the car doors and tossed a gun to Norah, asking, “What now?”
Mylo, breathless, pointed at the guns. “Curt, my gun has only two bullets, and Juan's gun has only one. They'll be
defenseless once they fire.”
“All right. Smash the car for me,” Curt instructed.
The abandoned factory was full of steel bars and bricks. Juan and Mylo started frantically looking for something
to smash the car windows.
“Force them to shoot. Then, dodge the bullets. That way, they won't be able to escape.”
Bricks struck the glass, creating a spiderweb of cracks that grew bigger with every passing second.
Kaiden, a skilled shooter who practiced daily at the shooting range, gripped the gun tightly, waiting for Norah's
instructions.
Norah, holding her gun, glanced at Curt. She swallowed nervously when she saw the shattered rear window and
the gun aimed at her. She took deep breaths and reminded herself to calm down. Three bullets were enough to
take down three people.
The next moment, the car window shattered as the bullet flew through the shards, hitting Mylo squarely in the
forehead. One shot took his life. Curt and Juan gasped in shock as they watched Mylo collapse lifelessly right
before their eyes.
“Dead!” Juan trembled in fright. “He’s dead! Curt, Mylo is dead.”
Curt aimed the gun at Norah's head. “He couldn’t dodge a bullet himself. Whose fault is it? Grab the knife! They

A gunshot echoed as he spoke. Juan instinctively covered his head and saw the bullet embedded in the wall
behind Curt. Curt’s bloodthirsty eyes gleamed with excitement. “One more bullet left.”
“Damn it!” Kaiden cursed under his breath. “Missed it!”
Norah's expression turned grim. Kaiden had wasted one bullet.
Kaiden threw the gun aside and held his head in his arms, shaking in fear. “I thought | wouldn't miss the shot.”
Norah let out a weary sigh. She hadn't discussed her plan with Kaiden. It was her fault. Kaiden had recklessly
used the bullet.
Assuming victory was certain, Curt ordered, “Open the door and be careful to dodge the bullets.”
Juan crouched by the car door, trembling in fright as he reached out his hand to unlock it.
Norah angrily stomped her foot, and her high heel crushed Juan's palm.
Juan howled in pain. “It hurts! It hurts! Gosh, you're breaking my hand!”
Curt’s face darkened. He redirected the gun and began firing it.
“My arm!” Kaiden clutched his bleeding arm, crying out in shock.
“Stop struggling. It’s pointless. Drop the gun, and I'll make sure you have a painless death!” Curt warned.
Mylo was dead.
Curt saw Norah as the embodiment of ruthless beauty, someone who could kill in the blink of an eye.
One moment of negligence could cost them their lives.
“Otherwise, I'll fire a shot every minute. | don’t know which of you will die,” Curt smirked, pressuring Norah to
make a choice.
Kaiden gritted his teeth and held his throbbing arm, not daring to distract Norah.
Anger surged through Norah's veins as her lips curled into a sneer.
