Chapter 527
“I–I–I–I...” Cobra couldn’t even form a coherent sentence.
Bugsy’s lackeys were in similar disbelief as well, and they stared at one
another with their mouths agape. They couldn’t believe their boss would lose
in a one–on–one duel.
“That was amazing, Emmanuel!” Unable to contain her excitement, Sarah
trotted ahead and took her handkerchief out, trying to wipe the sweat off
Emmanuel’s forehead.
Emmanuel smiled at her and approached Eve. With the defeat of Bugsy, his
men were nothing to be scared of. They might have the numbers advantage,
but they were in confusion. Just then, the sound of crisp and uniform
footsteps boomed in the air.
“What now?” The thugs panicked. They too moved in groups, so they knew
how hard it must be for a team to walk in this uniform manner. They were
wondering if the army was attacking them.
“Don’t move!”
“You’re surrounded! Down on the ground!”
The WWS had arrived on the scene, all members armed, and some with guns
too, much to the horror of the thugs. They never thought the government
would come after them, but their worst nightmare had been brought to life
before their very eyes.
They lost their numbers advantage, and these people were obviously far
better fighters than they were. Their fighting spirit doused, the thugs
surrendered and went down on their knees, shivering in fear.
“How do you want to deal with these scumbags, Emmanuel?” Eve asked.
“Tie them up. I’m going to gather the villagers and announce all their sins
right in front of them. And then we’ll see if we can’t punish these scumbags,”
Emmanuel hissed. These men are monsters. If we’ve collected the evidence
of their crimes and the government won’t step in, then I guess we’ll be
dishing out vigilante justice, then. We can’t just let them terrorize this place
and leave Blockhead and his family in danger.
Sarah watched on silently, but she was actually shocked. Her mother thought
Emmanuel was just a regular citizen, but in reality, the guy was far more
powerful than they imagined.
Eve went to do her job, then Emmanuel made his way toward Amy. Even
though Amy saw him teaching Bugsy a lesson, his coming toward her still
filled her with fear, and she hid behind her aunt.
“It’s alright, Amy. He’s my brother–in–law. He’s a hero. A good guy, Sarah
approached Amy and explained things to her.
Amy poked her head out from her aunt’s back and stared at Emmanuel, but
she was still too scared to come out.
“I’m your brother’s friend, Amy. I’m here to help. Can you let me take a look?”
Emmanuel tried to be friendly, but no matter what he said, the girl was still
scared.
Sarah approached her to hold her hand and smiled. “It’s alright, Amy. I’ll be
with you. He won’t hurt you, I promise.”
“I–I trust you. You’re nice.” Amy grinned.
Emmanuel noticed that Amy trusted Sarah a lot. There’s no way a scheming
woman can fake this level of friendliness. Maybe Mackenzie and Beatrix got it.
all wrong about her.
