Chapter 24 No Escape
This villa had been hidden for over ten years without being discovered.
How had Samuel found it so quickly?
But there was no time to figure it out now,

Mr. Hyde turned and kicked Corey hard. “Get the hell away from me! I’m barely saving my own ass. I’m not dragging you along!”
With that, he grabbed his bag and made for the exit.
There was no way Corey would just sit around and wait to die. If Samuel caught him, he would be dead for sure would be a slow, agonizing death.
By now, Corey was certain Samuel had already caught Darren.
Darren was probably dead already. Even if he wasn’t, with Samuel’s methods, he wouldn’t be far from it.
What they didn’t know was that Corey’s phone had been bugged with a tracker.
In fact, three phones had been tagged, because all three of them had deep ties to Darren.
and it
Days ago, Windy had set the plan in motion, buying the equipment and hiring people to lure Corey and the others out.
It had taken five days to put it all in place. At first, she had only confirmed Darren’s involvement in the old case and hadn’t known about the others.
After days of tracking, they had found no obvious clues
–
everyone lived like normal.
So she had forced Darren to expose himself first, filming the video and sending it to Samuel. Once Zhang Biao got caught, his connections would start panicking.
That was how they confirmed Corey’s involvement. Just two hours after the video went public, Corey had panicked and rushed out, making frantic calls,
Corey had left and Samuel had followed.

Corey scrambled to his feet and chased after Mr. Hyde.
Mr. Hyde turned, lifted his gun, and fired several rounds at him.
Corey barely had time to react before bullets tore through his body.
He had never expected that the man he thought would save him would be the one to kill him.
But how could Mr. Hyde possibly let him live?
Of the people involved back then, only three had survived. Darren being caught meant their identities had been exposed. Corey had even dared to think he could use that against him.
Now, with Corey dead, only Mr. Hyde knew the full story.
When I rise again, I’ll make sure Samuel dies!
After finishing off Corey, Mr. Hyde wasted no time and continued his escape.
Back when he had built this villa, he had constructed several secret escape routes.
One of them was extremely well–hidden.
They moved quickly. As they passed another villa on the way, they didn’t even spare a glance at the underground vaults full of weapons and gold.
None of that mattered now.

Only survival.
There’s no way Samuel could know about this tunnel.
Unfortunately, fate had other plans.

After a grueling sprint and working together to pry open the hidden exit door, they barely had a chance to breathe–
Waiting for them outside was a whole squad, guns drawn.
They were completely surrounded.
There was no way back.
