Chapter 596
Right when he was starting his armored car, Felix went up to him and grabbed his leg to pull him out of the vehicle.
Next to them, Stephen’s secretary dropped to his knees and begged, “Please spare me! No matter what you want to know, I’ll tell you! Please let me live!”
The secretary wanted nothing but to live.
Apparently, no one in Anglandur had courage, and they were all willing to beg for their lives.
Stephen’s face fell when he saw what his secretary was doing. I really didn’t see this coming. I thought I was able to achieve a complete victory.
“Tristan, what are you doing? I still need to take part in the general election. What are you guys doing… Forget about it! I’m willing to give you anything you want! All you need to do is to let me attend the general election!” Stephen offered.
Needless to say, Stephen had no idea what was going on.
“General election? No chance! You shouldn’t have messed with Chanaea! Stephen, if you die here, do you think someone is going to avenge your death? No! Don’t you know much others hate you?” Tristan queried. If Stephen were to disappear from the face of the earth today, no one would search for him.
At that moment, Stephen’s secretary was peeing his pants, and he was trembling in fear. “This is all his doing, and I have nothing to do with anything. Please let me go! I’m serious. I’ll tell you guys everything you guys want to know. As long as you don’t kill me, I’ll give you my full cooperation.”
“John!” Stephen warned John Whittaker. “Do you think they’ll let you live just because you’re willing to tell them everything? You must be dreaming!”
Felix couldn’t help but laugh. “John, is it? Well, we can consider letting you live. However, that depends on how much you know.”
After all, the strong would always dominate the weak.
Felix and the others had the right to act arrogantly.
“Tristan, I’m a senator for Anglandur. If I were to die here, do you think you’ll be able to explain yourself?” Of course, Stephen didn’t want to die.
He was even dreaming of becoming Anglandur’s president.
“What? Why would I kill you here?”
Stephen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that. As long as I get to live, I can still come up with something.
“Okay. That’s enough. Stop talking nonsense to them and tie them up!” Tristan ordered. Both of these men are evil, so I’m not letting either of them off the hook. Right when he was starting his armored car, Felix went up to him and grabbed his leg to pull him out of the vehicle.
Right then, Sean’s voice rang out in the earpiece, and he said, “All right. It’s time to leave.” After they had created such a huge scene in Anglandur, it would be foolish of them to stay longer than they had to.
“Okay. Let’s get ready to go back! Felix, destroy all the evidence here,” Tristan ordered. If we don’t leave evidence behind, no one can accuse us of anything.
In the meantime, Javier arrived at the hospital in a rush and saw Nicholas barely breathing. While trembling all over, he asked, “What happened? Didn’t I ask you to follow him wherever he goes? How did something like this happen?”
Alex was kneeling on the ground.
After what happened, he couldn’t forgive himself.
Therefore, he was willing to accept any punishment Javier had in mind for him.
Everyone else at the scene then knelt, and one of them said, “Old Mr. Sable, this has nothing to do with Alex. Mr. Nicholas made the decision on his own! None of us could stop him!”
Everyone knew what Nicholas was like. Once he made up his mind, there was no changing it.
“Tell the doctor that if he doesn’t save my son, he’s dead!” Nicholas was Javier’s only son, so there was no way the older man would give up on Nicholas.
Meanwhile, Alex was still kneeling on the ground, and he dared not move a single muscle. I didn’t want any of this to happen, but there’s nothing I can do now! Everything has already happened!
“Tristan, if anything happens to my son, you’re dead!” Javier fumed.
At the same time, in Central Hospital, Sophie had successfully developed the antidote. They would need to go through clinical trials next.
Over the past few days, Barney’s admiration for Sophie had grown exponentially. This young girl is totally unrivaled! Despite her tender age, she managed to develop an antidote for such a complicated virus. I can’t imagine how bright her future will be!
“All right now, leave the rest to Georgina and me! You should rest!” Barney knew how tired Sophie was. Throughout the research, she failed countless times, but she just kept trying. Not many people have the attitude she has.
With the research done, Sophie could finally breathe a sigh of relief. What was left was to wait and see the results.
That was something Georgina was capable of doing.
“Get some rest, Sophie! I’ll stay and handle the matter. I won’t disappoint you!” Georgina was very excited because she had just accomplished a huge achievement alongside Sophie.
“Okay,” Sophie answered.
Before Sophie went to rest, she went to the ward to see Arius first. Arius had been lying in bed all this while, and he felt as though he was going crazy.
“Sophie! I knew it! You never disappoint!” Arius heard about Sophie’s achievement.
He would always admire Sophie because she could never let one down. No matter what she did, she would always deliver the best outcome.
However, she hadn’t had a rest in a long time, so she looked rather pale. Even her beautiful eyes weren’t as bright as always.
“I’ve just done what you were meant to do. Now that I’ve helped you, you better start thinking of ways to thank me,” Sophie uttered. If not for him, I wouldn’t be so exhausted.
“How about marrying me?” he asked.
In response, Sophie shot him a glance and replied, “Watch your mouth. You better not let Tristan hear you say something like that.” Indeed, if Tristan were to hear it, she wouldn’t be able to protect Arius.
“Oh! How’s Mr. Tristan? What’s he doing nowadays?” Arius asked. Tristan hadn’t seen Sophie in such a long time. If he were to find out that I was the one who got Sophie here in the first place, he’s going to
kill me!
“He had gone to Anglandur.” Sophie’s heart ached when she thought about how Tristan had gone to Anglandur to capture Stephen. What if something bad happens to him?
“Oh, I see. Don’t worry! He’s an incredible man. Nothing’s going to happen to him. Besides, don’t you already know what kind of man Tristan is?” Arius queried. Tristan is so strong that he can definitely crush all his enemies.
“I think so, too!” Sophie knew how impressive Tristan was. No matter what, he’s going to be fine.
Arius was getting jealous. “Your relationship with him is so good! I bet it’s already stronger than our relationship!”
Sophie raised her brows and asked flatly, “Is there even a relationship between us?”
Arius was rendered speechless. She’s too much. In fact, she’s the perfect example of a woman putting men before friends.
