chapter 590: chapter 533: underestimating kevin clark
when she heard the explosion at her original residence, charlotte lane was genuinely frightened.
but she quickly calmed down.
she trusts kevin clark.
and kevin clark has never let her down.
the gunshots and the cries from the silver palace around her all tell her that kevin clark is coming to pick her up.
the gunshots around her are getting closer, and someone runs in from outside.
when he approached, alice eugene grabbed his collar tightly and harshly asked, “what happened!”
“it’s the people from dark radiance.” the person stuttered, “and the people from the hundred demons pavilion, and a group of people with unknown power.”
“how could it be them! wasn’t the residence blown up!” alice shouted.
“yes, it was blown up. but... the brother in charge of detonating didn’t send any message. they disappeared.”
alice threw him off: “a bunch of useless people!”
after scolding them, she looked at edward kirsten.
compared to alice’s excitement and anger, edward kirsten was much calmer. he looked at charlotte lane and ordered alice, “then we’ll face the enemy head-on.”
“yes.” alice nodded and left. before leaving, she glared at charlotte lane.
there are still many gun muzzles pointed at charlotte lane, who didn’t dare to move recklessly for a moment.
“i really underestimated kevin clark.” edward kirsten said.
charlotte lane looked at him without speaking.
“what do you think... what will be the outcome tonight?” edward kirsten looked at charlotte lane gently.
charlotte lane said, “do you think... you still have a chance of winning?”
“of course, there is. although it’s small, there’s still a chance.” edward kirsten said, “as long as there is, we shouldn’t give up, right?”
“yes.” charlotte lane said.
edward kirsten looked at her and said after a moment of silence, “you seem to have a lot of confidence in kevin clark.”
“yes.” charlotte lane replied.
edward kirsten smiled, “do you think kevin clark, who’s outside the periphery, can save you from so many gun muzzles?”
charlotte lane also gave a soft smile, “he can try.”
“do you think i’ll be willing to?” edward kirsten asked again.
“it’s just a matter of moving your lips, what’s there to be reluctant about?” charlotte lane said.
edward kirsten’s smile was bitter, and he seemed to have no sense of urgency for his life being threatened. his voice suddenly softened, “enigma... i suddenly think it would be nice for us to die together.”
in the darkness, charlotte lane’s eyes flashed.
“wait and see.” edward kirsten said, “let’s see if we will die together tonight, or if kevin clark and his group will die together.”
charlotte lane climbed the peach blossom tree and reached the second floor of the villa.
edward kirsten tried to go inside the villa to find her, but at this moment, the people outside broke into the courtyard.
he couldn’t enter the villa and started fighting with the intruders.
the fighting outside was still fierce, but as soon as some people broke in, many retreated back and focused on protecting edward kirsten.
meanwhile, charlotte lane went straight to alice eugene and edward kirsten’s room after entering the villa.
she found two guns in their room, checked if they had bullets and were usable, and then went back downstairs to help.
the outside battle continued.
charlotte lane didn’t see anyone she recognized.
not only could she not see the desired kevin clark, but she couldn’t even see edward kirsten, who was surrounded by people.
she didn’t care too much about that, found cover, and started shooting at people.
a portion of the firepower was directed at her from behind as she was being attacked.
the battle lasted a long time, and edward kirsten’s men gradually decreased in number.
finally, charlotte lane saw kevin clark’s figure.
she had discarded seven or eight guns beside her, all of which were her own used guns, taken from the opponent’s hands.
after finishing off the people around her, she glanced at kevin clark again and started looking for edward kirsten.
edward kirsten disappeared at some point.
but... they were trapped in the outer perimeter and couldn’t escape anyway.
keeping an eye on her surroundings, charlotte lane searched for edward kirsten.
aside from edward kirsten’s men, she was the most familiar with this place.
there was a narrow path connecting the front courtyard to the backyard, and charlotte lane moved slowly along it.
suddenly, she felt something was off, and at the same time, voices were heard from afar—kevin clark and william lane shouted, “lila!”
charlotte lane dodged one bullet to the side, but another one immediately followed.
there were snipers on the other side, and at this speed... there was more than one.
charlotte lane dodged again, but as she ran behind a pillar, a third bullet came in.
the snipers were predicting her next position, so charlotte lane immediately changed directions, catching a glimpse of a figure in her peripheral vision rushing towards her.
everything happened too quickly for charlotte lane to even recognize who the figure was; instinctively, she grabbed the person, intending to dodge with them.
however, the person used a force in the opposite direction, protecting her by holding her in their arms.
charlotte lane heard the sound of a bullet passing through a body, and the scalding hot blood splattered on her neck.
her whole body ran cold, and she immediately turned her head to look at the person who had protected her.
edward kirsten’s left chest was drenched in red on his white suit...
