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
He slowly replied, "I have relocated the item. Even if they find the place, they won't find the item."He hid one hand behind him and made a gesture. Jude immediately noticed it and started making a move.Chester's eyes lit up. He hurriedly asked, "Where is it now? I'm thinking about working togethe
"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

As time went by, lots of things happened. But Samantha managed to deal with them all.However, Samantha didn't go along with Felix's request to meet him.After denying his requests multiple times, he finally stopped pestering her. However, she didn't know what had gotten in him that changed his mind
Kendrick opened the car door and was about to get out. But Francis had already pulled over his car in front of her. He quickly sat back down with a menacing look.Kendrick didn't want Samantha to find out earlier. However, when he changed his mind, she ignored him. He had brought it on himself. "Wh
