Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 692 Martin Was Shot

"The people led by Gareth were so busy that most of them were sweating. Sensing the tall man's obvious contempt for them, they were irritated. The man looked at them and said, "Mr. Harvey, we have been here for more than an hour. We have inspected the surroundings. It is basically safe outside. So, we would like you to cooperate."

"Hudson also knew that Gareth and the rest were unable to deactivate these bombs. Initially, he had wanted them to work together. However, the other party wasn't friendly and completely looked down on Gareth and his men. It was a really bad time for him to say anything. After all, they had been working hard."

"Mr. Harvey, Madam Lilian invited the world's top bomb experts. These bombs were all transported from the war-torn country. Your bomb experts should leave. Even if they deactivated them successfully, there will be risks. Therefore, I ask you to cooperate and ask them to leave as soon as possible. We are pressing for time. Either you continue to let them work, or we will leave right away."

"Umm. Hudson was a little stunned. After all, Gareth and the others were sent by Old Brooklyn. They had been working for so long. If he sent them away, then wouldn't it ruin Old Brooklyn's reputation? Just as he was in a daze, he heard a voice saying, """Alright, please start immediately. I will get them back to the capital right away."""""

"Hudson gasped. He looked up and saw Calvin walking over. His arm was wrapped in bandages. Anxiety and relief struck him at the same time. """Calvin, you're back. What's wrong with your arm? How's Kate?"""""

"Calvin didn't have the time to answer Hudson's questions. He simply said, """Dad, you should rest. Leave the rest to me. Belle's mother has already been sent to the hospital.""""

"Hudson couldn't believe that his son had returned alive. Although his arm was covered with gauze, Hudson felt relieved."

"Calvin knew very well that the task of deactivating bombs was technical. These non-citizen experts did not wish for their techniques to be learnt by the experts in the country. Therefore, Gareth and the rest had to leave."

It didn't take long for the men Gareth brought to be given some money each and sent off in a diplomatic way.

"Then, the bomb experts sent by Madam Lilian began to work."

"Calvin, do you trust these bomb experts? Gareth and the others are top-tier experts in the country, and they have successfully deactivated many bombs. If you let them leave, then... Jaqueline saw that Calvin had really sent Gareth and the others away and was a little anxious. It was not a matter of whose reputation was ruined. If these non-citizen experts could not solve the problem, with Gareth and the rest gone, then the consequences would be horrible."

"The corners of Calvin's mouth twitched. """Jaqueline, I understand what you mean. Don't worry. Everything will be fine."""""

"Well, okay, Jaqueline said reluctantly. Since Calvin had said so, she had to let it go. After all, this mansion belonged to the Harvey family."

Yes. Calvin nodded indifferently.

"Jaqueline pursed her lips. Just as she was about to say something, she saw Calvin turn around and walk forward. She followed behind and asked with curiosity, """Calvin, are these people sent by Madam Lilian? Does this mean that Madam Lilian was planning to attend Sophia's funeral?""""

Calvin's body froze and he stopped in his tracks. He remained silent for a moment before walking away without saying a word.

"Jaqueline watched as he left, not wanting to go after him. However, a strange feeling enveloped her heart, and she became quiet for a very long time."

"Time passed by. Tick, tock. Tick, tock."

"As the sun set, it illuminated the mansion. The scenery was as beautiful as a painting. The birds in the forest were chirping cheerfully, interrupting the quietness in the mansion." "Standing on the top floor of Fragrance Garden, Calvin swept his binoculars across every spot of the mansion. His heart was filled with complicated emotions."

He was waiting.

"Yadriel had not succeeded in obtaining the Ocean Heart and did not blow up the Harvey Mansion in time. He set the timed bombs at seven o'clock in the evening. Obviously, he was making a final crazy escapade."

Aron stood by his side and was also waiting for Yadriel to come.

"Rosa, are you afraid? Martin was still holding Rosa's hand. He had not loosened it once. It was getting dark, and the bomb dismantling was still being carried out. He wondered what had made her choose to stay. Such a scene was very terrible to watch. She should leave as soon as possible."

"Rosa's mind had been in a state of chaos the entire afternoon, so much so that she forgot that Martin was holding her hand. She wasn't even aware that he was leading her around like a puppet. It wasn't until Martin asked her something that she finally returned to reality. At that time, both her and Martin's palms were covered with sweat."

What's there to be afraid of? Isn't Carmella still here? Shouldn't you go find her? Why are you here? Rosa was impatient and snapped.

"Martin lowered his head to look at her. Sweat was beading on the tip of her nose and her face was flushed red. He didn't know if it was because of the weather, or because she was so nervous, but the last thing he noticed was the frustration on her face."

"The corners of his mouth curled up. He tilted his head and asked, """Rosa, are you jealous?'"'"'"'

"Hearing this, Rosa's face turned redder. She suddenly shook off his hand and rebuked him. """In your dreams. Who would be jealous of her?""""

"Martin smiled gently and said in a low voice, """Rosa, I only care about you. It's none of my business what others do."""""

"Unfortunately, I don't need your concern, Rosa replied coldly, turning her head away."

"Rosa, don't treat me like this. If something happens tonight, then at least I can die in peace knowing that we had a rather peaceful time. Martin suddenly lowered his head and pleaded." "Rosa's heart trembled. Suddenly, she felt an inexplicable pain in her heart. She turned around and refused to look at him anymore."

Martin turned around too.

"Just as he was about to continue teasing her, the bushes beside him rustled. Facing him was a pitch-black muzzle, aimed straight at Rosa. There was a sound of a click." "Careful! His face suddenly turned pale, and he cried out urgently."

"However, it was too late."

He only heard the gunshot.

Martin was mad. He quickly stepped forward and protected Rosa with his body. The bullet happened to be shot right in Martin's back.

"As soon as the gunshot rang, the place became a mess."

"Even though General Perry and Albie Williamson were both well-trained soldiers, they heard Martin's scream and immediately turned their heads."

The murderer was too fast.

They watched helplessly as the bullet entered Martin's back.

"General Perry's eyes flashed with anger. He snatched the pistol from Albie Williamson's hand and shot the murderer with accuracy. With a scream, the man hiding in the bushes fell to the ground." "Seize him. Check if there's any more of them! His experience told him that there should be more than one person hiding. General Perry decisively ordered, and Albie Williamson dashed out of the crowd." "At that time, the Xeqint arrived as soon as they heard the gunshot."

"Look carefully! Don't let the villains get away! Albie Williamson shouted at Luca, who had rushed here after hearing the shot."

"At that time, the crowd began to stir. Another sniper then started to fire, and another person had been shot."

"Quick, protect the guests. Luca began to shoot towards the direction of the gunshot."

A gunfight began.

"The gunfight that time lasted only ten minutes. A few people in the crowd were shot. However, the three villains hiding in the dark were captured."

"Calvin was standing on the rooftop holding a pair of binoculars. When the gunshots rang out, he was startled and immediately directed the binoculars towards the location of the gunshots. Very quickly, he saw a scene that made him tremble in fear."

The place where their relatives had gathered was where the battle was taking place. This was the last thing he wanted to see.

"Quick, Aron, save them. Calvin threw away the binoculars in his hand. Aron hurriedly rushed to the scene."

"Just then, Calvin's phone rang."

"When he was about to throw his phone away, Calvin saw that it was Yadriel calling."

"He was shocked. Seeing that it was almost seven o'clock, he had to stop in his tracks, but in an instant, he realized that he was the mastermind of the gunfight."

"Yadriel, what do you think you're doing? he asked sharply once he picked up the phone."

"From the other side, Yadriel laughed sinisterly. His voice was as eerie as a ghost's."

"Calvin, I'm showing my gratitude to your family for ruining mine. Let me tell you, there are a total of twenty-two terrorists from the war-torn country. You captured seventeen of them this morning. Three of them have been hiding in your mansion since last night. I'm sure there must be quite a number of casualties in your mansion, aye?"

"The veins on the corner of Calvin's forehead throbbed with rage. Fire gushed out of his eyes and his fingers, which were holding his phone, creaked."

"Yadriel, you're pathetic. Why do you involve civillians in this war? You deserve to burn in h*ll, Calvin bellowed, glaring at his surroundings with red eyes. "

"Haha. Yadriel laughed arrogantly on the other side. """Let's see who's the one going to h*ll first. Before I die, your family needs to pay."

"Speaking of this, Yadriel stopped smiling and said in a cold voice, """Calvin, do you think that you'll be fine with Madam Lilian and those international bomb experts? Let me tell you, I have two terrorists with bombs on their bodies. How will you deactivate them? You don't even know where they are hiding. Once I give an order, they will start the timer and blow up the whole place. Tell me, what are you going to do?"""""

Yadriel's words left Calvin dumbfounded. There were goosebumps all over his skin.

"What do you think? Are you afraid? If you are, then obey me. Maybe I will make Harvey Manor a historical keepsake if I'm satisfied, Yadriel said with a smug smile on the other side of the phone."
