Chapter 1867: The End Together
Seren revealed an evil smile. “I knew you wouldn’t give up. Look, in the end, you fell into my hands.”
Vicki raised her hand to counter Seren. Now that her hands and feet were free, her skills should be on par with Seren’s. However, for some reason, when she lifted her leg to strike, she suddenly felt her legs go weak.
The smoke was thick, making her cough repeatedly.
At that moment, Seren seized the opportunity and kicked Vicki hard at the knee. Vicki’s legs went weak, and she had no choice but to kneel on the ground. Simultaneously, Seren used handcuffs to restrain her hands behind her back.
“Is the smoke bothering you?” Vicki finally realized what was happening. The smoke contained hallucinogenic substances that made her limbs weak. Seren must have taken an antidote beforehand, so he wasn’t affected.
“Hehe, you’re realizing it too late, Vicki. As long as you’re in my hands, everything still has a chance,” Seren said, lifting Vicki up. “Now, let’s see how you can resist. Where can you escape to? You’re really foolish. If you had followed me back then, none of these things would have happened. In the end, it’s all because of you.”
Vicki laughed mockingly, “You still haven’t realized the truth. Being with you is worse than death. What kind of person do you think you are? The scum of scum, the trash of garbage, Seren, go ahead and kill me.”
It was indeed her negligence that led her back into Seren’s hands. She was determined to resolve the events of the past, but the more anxious she became, the more prone to mistakes she was. She was too stubborn, and now she had fallen into a trap. All she wanted to do now was to avoid involving others.
No one knew that she had a small bomb hidden on her body, inside the pendant she wore on her wrist. Its power was enough to kill both her and the people around her simultaneously. If there was no other choice, she would rather die together with Seren.
Meanwhile, after Felix sent the rendezvous signal to Mr. Warner and Mr. Ball, he turned back to the large tree where they were before and found that Vicki was missing. There was a suspicious cluster of dense fog ahead.
He felt a sudden shock and had an ominous premonition.
He rushed towards the fog, which was gradually dispersing, revealing the situation inside.
When Felix saw Vicki being captured by Seren again, his heart sank to the bottom. It was worse than the situation in the hall earlier because back then Vicki was only pretending to be restrained. Now, she was truly captured, and there were snipers on the spire and Mr. Ball outside. She was truly isolated and had no support.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
At this moment, the people Felix brought with him gradually surrounded the area, following behind him. Felix remained still, and they didn’t dare to make any rash moves.
Seren shouted loudly, “Have your people move back ten steps.” He grabbed Vicki and said, “Watch closely, I’ve handcuffed her, and she has inhaled the hallucinogenic smoke, rendering her powerless. Anyone who dares to come forward, I will kill her immediately!”
After speaking, Seren ruthlessly cut Vicki’s arm with a dagger.
A tearing sound accompanied the tearing of the fabric, and blood gushed out.
Vicki didn’t make a sound, and the pain only made her furrow her brows. Inhaling the mist had made her disoriented, but the sight of her own blood brought some clarity. She shook her head forcefully. “Felix, you don’t need to worry about me. He is on his last legs. Capture him, and everything will be over.”
Felix looked at Vicki with anguish. How could he not worry about her? He didn’t want anything if not for her.
What did she mean to him? She meant giving up her life. How could he possibly do that? He valued her life more than his own.
Felix raised his voice, “Seren, you just want the vault, right?”
He suddenly pulled his pendant from around his neck and waved it in the air. “The key to the vault is right here! I carry it with me. I’ll give you the key if you release Vicki!”
Earlier, he had performed some operations on the computer that Seren didn’t understand. Seren probably thought that the iris unlocking device had been deactivated, and now all he needed was the physical key to open the vault overseas.
But that wasn’t the case. Under the double security measures he had set, attempting to forcibly open the vault with the key would trigger a system lockdown, preventing it from ever being opened again. No one would be able to get themoney.
However, Seren was unaware of this.
Seren glanced at the key, his eyes filled with greed. He wanted the money and he wanted Vicki. Once he had the money, he would regroup and make sure the Saunders family didn’t get away. He wouldn’t settle for anything less than what he desired. But first, he needed to get his hands on the money, and then Athena would arrange for his escape overseas through a special channel.
Seeing Seren’s greedy expression, Felix enticed him, “I’ll throw the key over, and you release her. How about an exchange?”
Seren sneered, “I’m not stupid. Your people should be arriving soon, and you definitely have more numbers than I do. If I release Vicki, who can guarantee my safety?”
“What do you want?” Felix gritted his teeth and asked.
“Give me the key. Once I reach a safe place, I’ll release Vicki,” Seren said with a sinister expression.
“Why should I trust you? What if you don’t release Vicki?” Felix retorted. Negotiating with Seren meant there was no trust involved. Who would believe Seren’s words?
At that moment, a black-clothed person suddenly approached and whispered something in Seren’s ear.
Felix narrowed his eyes as the black-clothed person spoke, their gaze fixed on Vicki. He didn’t know what they were saying, but he had a sense of impending doom.
Indeed, as soon as the black-clothed person finished speaking, Seren’s face changed drastically, and he cursed, “Bring that bitch here!”
“Yes,” the black-clothed person quickly turned around. Half a minute later, a female black-clothed person, who had previously conducted the pregnancy test on Vicki, was brought over by two male black-clothed individuals and thrown at Seren’s feet.
Vicki’s expression changed when she saw the female subordinate. She knew things were bad. Her pregnancy had been exposed by Seren.
Seren kicked the female subordinate forcefully, “You deceitful woman! You helped Vicki with the pregnancy test and then conspired with her! Die! Trash!”
Seren continued to kick her, one kick after another, with great force. The female subordinate moaned in pain a few times, unable to bear it, and her eyes rolled back as she passed out.
Felix’s face couldn’t get any darker at this moment. Damn it, it was all his carelessness. The news about Vicki’s pregnancy had leaked, and their current situation became even more precarious.
