Chapter 36
Christopher coldly urtered word by word, “Do you know that kidnapping and selling victims can lead to the death penalty?”
Then, he reached for the weaponholstered at his waist and held it up. The couple’s eyes widened in terror, their faces turning pale.
They began shaking their heads frantically and silently begged Christopher for mercy, but Christopher’s patience had nun out
He had chased them from Tanbage Crest to this beach, driving over 20 miles. If he had been a step too late, Rebecca would have been taken out to sea, and the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Taking a step closer, he questioned, “Do you know who you kidnapped? She’s the daughter of a sacrificed veteran. How dare you lay a hand on her?
The descendant of a sacrificed veteran? The couple’s hearts pounded wildly in their chests. They had no idea they had messed with someone so untouchable.
Christopher yanked them off the tractor and threw them into the back seat of his car. Then, he slammed the door shut with a loud bang.
His gaze tumed to the brightly lit yacht in the distance, and he could see numerous guards patrolling the deck. He law that since he was alone, he couldn’t afford to cause à scene. He had to get Rebera out safely.
He pulled out his phone and sent les location to his team at the base. Once he was done, he switched his phone to silent mode and tucked it away. Without a moment’s hesitation, be advanced toward the yacht.
Dressed entirely in black, he pulled a baseball cap from bas pocket and fitted it onto his head. After making sure his disguise was ready, he scanned the yacht’s
exterior.
There were multiple rooms. Christopher analyzed which room Rebecca could be in, his gaze fell on a faint shadow flickering through a slightly open window. In the room, Rebecca was backed into a comer. She couldn’t find anything sharp enough to cur through the rope. When she looked out the window, there wer guards patrolling the deck
Escaping through the window seemed impossible, and she’d get caught immediately. Should she jump into the sea?
Rebecca’s face paled. For the first time in her life, she felt utterly powerless
She had thought that being rebom with the knowledge and lesson from her past life would help her awold misfortune, but now, she was tied up in a room and unable to scape
Just as she bit berlip and tried to think of a solution, a sound came from outside the window. She looked up just in time to see a tall tigate climbing through the window and looming over het.
Rebecca instinctively shut her eyes tight. Her voice trembled as she pleaded, “Don’t och mal
Christopher’s face was partially obscured under the brim of his cap. He looked down at Rebecca closing her eyes in tright, and a flicker of emotion flashed in his pare. Hesaid in a low gravelly volor, “It’s me.”
Rebecca froze. It felt as if the blood in her veins had stopped flowing-
Her eyes widened in disbelief as she looked up at the man before her. Her heart started racing wildly, and she could even hear the pounding in her ears. She was incredulous, and her voice was hoarse as she stammered, “C–Christopher?”
The sight of him standing there felt surreal. How could Christopher be here? How did he find her?
She had no communication device, and she hadn’t told anyone she was going to Tinbago Crest.
fears welled up in her eyes as she looked at Christopher. She threw herself forward and cried out, “Christopher, you’re here to save me!”
