Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 168 Fool

Micah glared at Sadie with a look of utter disdain and snapped, "Are you an idiot?"

"I, I..." Sadie's neck, barely healed, was now under the edge of a knife again, scared out of her wits, her words a jumbled mess, she could utter not another sound.

"Ah... Miss Roth, what are you doing running up here now?" Andrew sighed. Even if it were just him and Mr. Clemens against these lowlifes, between the two of them, they have more than enough skill and experience to handle them, but now, with Sadie here!

"You destroy the X system right now, or I kill her," the thug ordered arrogantly.

Sadie was on the verge of tears internally, thinking, it's over, it's all over...

Such an important system, tied to the future fate of VIC Group... to let it be destroyed?

Rather let him destroy the Earth.

This time, he surely wouldn't save her.

"Go ahead and kill her. Such a stupid woman-it's pointless even if she lives!" Micah glared coldly at Sadie, shook his fist, and turned to walk towards his office. Andrew was flabbergasted. Was he being serious right now or was this some kind of ruse?

Tears of sorrow began to fall from Sadie's eyes, "I am just a useless person, the lowest-ranked secretary on the 68th floor; taking me hostage is pointless..."

"Shut up!" The thug gnashed his teeth in frustration, cursing his own misfortune for having taken the most worthless secretary hostage.

"Fine, since none of you will save her, I'll kill her right now-" As he spoke, the thug raised his knife, ready to make the cut...

"Don't-!" Instinctively closing her eyes, Sadie shouted out almost without thinking, "Bodyguard, save me!!!"

The sound of rushing wind passed by her ear, and immediately after, the hand around her neck loosened, followed by a heavy thud...

Sadie slowly opened her eyes to find the man behind her had fallen and was not getting up.

The knife in his hand had been taken by Micah.

He casually threw the knife away, shot her a look of disdain, and turned to walk back towards his office...

Stunned, Sadie stood rooted to the spot, watching his familiar retreating figure, replaying the recent scene in her mind. If she remembered correctly, she had just called out "Bodyguard, save me." So... he must be Bodyguard!! "Miss Roth, don't space out," Andrew waved his hand in front of Sadie's eyes, "It's dangerous here, come inside with us."

"You're bleeding..." It was then that Sadie noticed Andrew was injured; his shoulder, arm, and leg covered in wounds, blood oozing and trailing as he moved...

Yet, he seemed completely oblivious to the pain, without any reaction.

"It's just a superficial wound, nothing serious." Andrew seemed unconcerned, reminding her with good intentions, "The press conference has already started, the hacker issue is still unresolved, Mr. Wood is stalling for time now, and Mr. Clemens is racing against the clock. Don't stir things up at this moment."

"Understood." Sadie looked around, her heart pounding with fear...

The place was in shambles, littered with destruction everywhere, and a group of men dressed in black lay on the ground, their fate unknown...

Only the CEO's office remained untouched, as if it was the last sanctuary.

One could imagine the scene that had just unfolded: Micah dealing with the hacker system inside his office, while Andrew fought alone outside... Inside was a tranquil sanctuary; outside a hell of slaughter.

Separated only by a door, yet it felt like heaven and hell...

Ultimately, when Andrew could no longer hold out, Micah had no choice but to emerge and personally deal with those with a death wish.

Just as things were about to wrap up, that big fool Sadie blundered in...

Sadie wished she could crawl into a crack in the ground, feeling herself to be more of a hindrance than a help.

"What's this fool doing following us in here?" Micah's voice came, ice-cold and laced with sharp irony.

Sadie looked up at him, her eyes filled with a quiet resentment, "I was just worried about you, so I came up to check on things. I didn't mean to cause any trouble..."
