Chester pulled out a gun and coldly warned, "Hand over the item, Kendrick. Once I have it, I'll let you all go, no matter the outcome.""Dad!""Kendrick!"Francis and Samantha gasped in surprise. Chester actually carried a gun with him this entire time.Kendrick felt his heart tightened as well. He

"Oh my God? Is that Kendrick?""What? Kendrick?"You're actually alive?"Gasps filled the room when the door was opened. Some were stupefied and at a loss for words.Kendrick panted heavily, but he approached Samantha and Francis unwaveringly. He shouted, "Yes, I'm alive, and I'm against this engage
