Chapter 853 Shot And Jumped Into The Sea
Leonardo’s men had no disrespect for Charles’s men, provoking them repeatedly until they were wholly
infuriated.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Three gunshots rang out from downstairs, prompting Leonardo’s men to rush upstairs to report it.novelbin
“They injured our men, Boss!”
Upon hearing that, Leonardo immediately loaded his gun and snarled unceremoniously, “You’ve
brought this upon yourself, Charles!”
In truth, even if Charles’s men hadn’t made the first move, they would still be accused of doing so
because Leonardo had never intended to let Charles leave the place alive from the very beginning.
Of course, Charles was no pushover either. When they searched him, he had already moved. the gun
he was carrying someplace else.
He exchanged a glance with Isaac. The latter immediately understood his meaning and tossed a small
package over.
“Catch, Mr. Newton!”
Charles quickly assembled a handgun and engaged in a fight with Leonardo.
Both of them were seasoned martial arts practitioners who trained all year round. For a moment, it was
impossible to determine the winner, let alone the person with the upper hand.
After several rounds of punches and kicks, both of them sustained various injuries. Panting heavily,
they separated temporarily.
A hint of admiration showed in Leonardo’s eyes. “I didn’t expect such a remarkable individual to exist in
Chanaea. I’ve truly underestimated you.”
Charles didn’t bother wasting his breath with him but delivered another ruthless kick instead.
The longer he remained there, the more disadvantageous it would be for him.
However, he quickly noticed something amiss. Gradually, he felt a loss of strength, and his head began
spinning.
He instantly realized that Leonardo must have released a gas in the room that could anesthetize the
senses.
Seeing the change in his expression, Leonardo immediately sneered. “You feel it, don’t you? This is the
latest anesthetic agent. You’re no match for me, Charles. The people of Chanaea. are just showy but
useless. You all deserve to die! Haha…”
His voice was grating to the ears. Charles clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug into his flesh.
Right then, he could only gain fleeting clarity through pain.
Nonetheless, the anesthesia gradually made him lose his balance. His consciousness also started
fading slowly.
Cornered by two men, Isaac couldn’t break free to save the man. Besides, he was likewise affected by
the anesthetic and started losing against his opponents’ onslaught.
Leonardo gradually began to show Charles no mercy, leaving countless injuries on the latter.
Charles glanced out the window before he suddenly sprinted toward it.
Realizing his intentions, Leonardo fired two shots in quick succession. One of them hit the man right in
the calf.
Charles stumbled, but still, he smashed the window using his momentum and jumped out.
Leonardo’s villa overlooked the sea. He fell into the ocean and disappeared without a trace.
“D*mn it! He got away!” Leonardo cursed, glaring at the broken window.
At that precise moment, his subordinate rushed up, panic-stricken. “Boss, their men are here, and
we’re no match for them. Do you want to leave now? The luxury car for escape is already prepared in
the basement.”
Upon hearing the commotion outside, coupled with the gunshot wound inflicted by Charles where an
intense pain radiated, Leonardo had no choice but to leave first despite his reluctance.
Just ten minutes after he had left, Charles’ men had taken over the villa completely and rescued the
hostages inside.
However, Leonardo was an extremely cunning man. He only detained half of the hostages in the villa,
while the whereabouts of the other half remained unknown
After being rescued. Isaat was given an injection that finally brought him back to clarity
He stared at the fabric left by the window, anxiety showing on his face. He ordered loudly, “Immediately
carry out a blanket search in this sea area! We must find Mr. Newton!”
“Understood!”
The sky gradually darkened. Charles’ men returned to the base and reported the situation in despair.
“Mr. Turner, we couldn’t find Mr. Newton.”
Because Muprary was an exceedingly chaotic country with various forces intertwined, they dared not
search for Charles openly.
After all, there would be additional trouble if they inadvertently angered the other forces.
Isaac eyeballed the red dot on the system that had already gone dim, consumed with anxiety.
That red dot represented Charles’s satellite positioning, and the system was installed on his phone and
on him to triangulate his location at all times.
Although it had been waterproofed, it couldn’t be immersed in seawater for a long time. Isaac could
only temporarily confirm that Charles was still alive.
Just as he was anxiously racking his brain for a solution, a buzzing roar suddenly sounded overhead.
His subordinate quickly rushed in, saying, “Mr. Turner, there’s a private plane circling overhead. It
seems to be looking for a place to land. Should we stop it?”
Recalling Whitney’s plan, Isaac hastily instructed, “Hurry and guide the plane to land. Remember not to
be rude to the person on the plane. As soon as it lands, bring her here immediately!”
“Understood, Mr. Turner!”
At that very moment, Whitney was on the airplane, looking down at the mountain ranges below. She
was thrilled, for the pilot had just announced that they had entered Muprary.
I’m now breathing the air as Charles!
“Ms. Mellor, I have received the command to descend. Our plane is about to land, so please brace
yourself”
The airplane gradually descended. Suppressing the excitement within her. Whitney patted her chest
lightly
Im really looking forward to seeing him I wonder if he ll be just as excited to see me
As the airplane taxied on the ground, the flight attendant on board brought Whitney’s suitcase over,
smiling as she said, “It was a pleasure to meet you. Hope to see you again.”
Right after she had finished speaking, the airplane’s cabin door opened, and someone came over to
take Whitney’s suitcase.
“We were sent by Mr. Turner to pick you up and take you over.”
“Is Mr. Turner referring to Isaac?” Whitney asked uneasily.
The person nodded in response and even produced the proof Isaac gave them.
Only then did Whitney feel at ease to leave with them. As she watched the scenery whizz by outside
the window, her curiosity about that place grew.
All her previous concerns had been completely dispelled. Right then, all she wanted was to see
Charles as soon as possible.
Soon, the luxury car arrived at Newton Group’s territory, where Isaac was waiting at the entrance.
Whitney stepped out of the car. When she didn’t see Charles anywhere, she couldn’t help but ask,
“Where is he, Isaac?”
Isaac’s expression stiffened, but he smoothly changed the subject. “You must be tired after a flight of
more than ten hours, Mrs. Newton. Go and rest first. I’ll tell you about the matter here later.”
At Isaac’s expression, Whitney had a vague feeling that something was wrong. “Isaac, tell me this-has
something happened to Charles? How is he? Is he injured? Is he in the hospital?”
Those were already the possibilities she could think of. She dared not let her thoughts wander to the
darker side.
Isaac hesitated for a moment. Knowing he couldn’t hide the truth from her at the end of the day, he told
her the truth.
“Mr. Newton… was shot and jumped into the sea. We… haven’t found him yet.”
Shot and jumped into the sea?
Whitney stumbled back a few steps, her back drenched in sweat from the scorching sun
However, she wasn’t sure right then whether the sweat was from the intense heat of the sun or the
shock of the news
Suddenly her vision went black and she felt somewhat dazed
Noticing that her expression was off, Isaac quickly stepped forward and supported her.
“Are you okay, Mrs. Newton? We’ll keep searching for Mr. Newton. Don’t worry, for Mr. Newton is
blessed by the heavens and will definitely be safe.”
Whitney couldn’t accept that, her body trembling as she asked, “Where… was he shot? And when did
he go missing? What on earth happened?”
