Chapter 394
Chapter 394
Nobody could handle Karen's anger once it was unleashed.
Turns out, this was true.
Black Rose had been the first to get shot at and lost the upper hand. She fought with Karen and was shot again. When she attacked Karen, Karen had easily found her out and sent her flying with a heavy kick.
This was Black Rose's lowest point since her debut.
She got up and was fuelled by vengeance. She swore, "Karen Lee, I will remember this day, One day, I will have you and your son killed!"
As she spoke, she had reached into her pockets to get something. Karen's expression changed to one of alarm when she realized what it was. It was a grenade!
Black Rose threw it at Karen but Karen had successfully retreated and found cover. With a loud rumble, an explosion broke out on the roof.
Black Rose then shot an arrow at the wall. It was connected to a rope, and so, she gripped it tightly and jumped off the rooftop immediately. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
She slid down the walls of the building as though she was in an action movie, and she was gone in no time. By the time Karen managed to recover from the aftershock, Black Rose had already escaped.
Karen's eyes narrowed at that and let out a sigh. Since Black Rose was the best female killer in the world, her ability must be unquestionable. Her escape was too quick, Karen could not manage to stop her and let her get away. "It wouldn't be easy to deal with Black Rose in the future, given her lust for vengeance," she thought.
Once Black Rose recovered, things would get very ugly.
Karen continued to stare off into the direction where Black Rose had escaped.
"Mom, Betty is..." Chuck walked over with Yvette in his arms.
Chuck was sad. Betty had been protecting him all this time. He did not expect that she would be shot to death, just like that.
Betty had died miserably, and she was still protecting him while she was dying. Chuck's heart ached when he thought about it.
Yvette was standing so close to Karen and she felt horribly incompetent. She merely bit at her lip anxiously and lowered her head.
Karen gave both Chuck and Yvette a glance. She then immediately went to Betty who was lying in a pool of blood. She crouched down and checked on Betty's wound.
Chuck came over and asked, "Mom, does she still have hope?"
Chuck knew that there was none. Betty had been lying there for a long while and did not move a muscle after being shot. Chuck was filled with hatred for Black Rose.
"Black Rose, how could you kill Betty!" he thought.
Chuck swore that he would make Black Rose pay soon.
"Chucky, call someone over. Betty is still alive," Karen said as she breathed a sigh of relief.
Yes, when she had checked Betty's wrists, she could still feel a pulse. A very weak one.
Chuck cried with joy and wasted no time to run down to call for help. Soon, medical specialists came up and carried Betty away to be treated.
They were professionals. Betty should be able to survive in their hands.
Chuck was relieved. "But what about Auntie Logan? Where is she?" he wondered.
Chuck was ready to question this, but he realized that the phone left by Black Rose was still there. The Duncan on the screen looked defeated.
Black Rose had actually run from a fight.
Mission failed.
"Karen, you might be lucky today but don't count on your luck next time. Black Rose didn't die this round, she will definitely kill you in the next!" Duncan sneered. When he heard that Black Rose had escaped, he knew instantly that Black Rose would swear to exact her revenge once and for all the moment she had recovered.
"You'd better worry about yourself first!" Karen said.
"Me? Haha, interesting, do you even know where I'm at? Do you plan to come to find me now? Come on then, let's see where you'll be able to find me," Duncan laughed as he said. What a funny joke!
He was at a secret location right now. How could Karen, who had just returned, find him?
That was merely impossible.
"Have you not realized that one person is missing?" Karen's eyes narrowed as she asked.
"Who? Oh, I see. You're talking about..." Duncan burst out laughing, but his expression suddenly changed as he received a phone call. An informant was telling him that someone was heading to his current location.
It was Willa. She had received a phone call from Karen moments before who had told her about Duncan's location. Karen had further informed Willa that she would be dealing with Black Rose by herself to save Chuck on the rooftop.
Of course, hearing that, Willa was relieved. After all, this was the mighty Karen!
Thus, she had immediately gone downstairs and drove off to the specified location!
Having used her skills, she managed to find out Duncan's exact position and was ready to confront him. After all, she did say that she wanted to play a game with him.
Now, the game had officially started.
Duncan frowned for a moment, then he smirked and said, "Is Willa coming over? Haha, that's good. Guess I'll play with her then!"
"Bang!" Suddenly, a shot could be heard.
It came through the phone. Was Willa opening fire?
Duncan's face darkened at that. "That fast?" he thought with a snort as he hung up the video call. He had wanted to spend some time teasing Willa a little with his games. After all, she was a woman Duncan had also desired.
"Mom, let's hurry up," Chuck said hurriedly. He couldn't believe Auntie Logan had actually gone straight to Duncan. Wouldn't it be dangerous for her?
Chuck's heart was pounding fast in his chest.
"Yes, come! Let's go take our revenge," Karen said. Willa could pin Duncan down this time, so they had enough time to get there.
"Okay," Chuck was anxious yet excited.
Karen looked at Yvette who was still keeping her head down. Yvette was feeling sorry for herself. She wondered how she could level up to Karen's strength, and when.
"Yvette, are you coming with us?" Karen asked.
Karen was also having mixed feelings towards Yvette.
"I..." Yvette trailed off and shook her head. She didn't want to stay or go anywhere with Karen. She decided that she would definitely not stay in the Hotel Luna anymore.
Under such circumstances, Chuck didn't know what to say or do.
"I'm not coming. You killed my father," Yvette raised her head as she said, bravely looking into Karen's eyes.
Karen was silent at that.
"You killed him in order to take away his possessions," Yvette's cold eyes were blood-red as she added, she looked malicious.
At this moment, she knew she was powerless. Her father's murderer was standing right in front of her and yet, she could do nothing.
"What did I take away from your father?" Karen asked as she was a little confused.
"You took everything!" Yvette roared.
Hearing this, Chuck let out a sigh.
Karen understood instantly and said, "Yes, I killed your father, but I didn't..." She couldn't finish.
"Don't argue anymore," Yvette cut off and clenched her fists. If it weren't for Chuck, she would definitely fight with Karen. Even if she couldn't win, she was willing to do it.
"I... Right, never mind, forget it. I don't have time to talk about this today," Karen shook her head. "Chucky, join me on the plane," she then directed at her son.
"Alright," Chuck replied and looked back at Yvette. "Honey, I'll be back soon. Are you sure you don't want to come with me?" he asked.
"What can I even do if I do go?" Yvette answered with a choked voice and soon burst into tears.
Chuck sighed at that and said, "I'm afraid you'll leave me again. Come with me, please. Duncan hurt you too, right? Let's go take our revenge together."
Chuck pulled Yvette by her hand and held her in his arms. He could feel her sorrow.
After a minute of silence, Yvette made up her mind. "Honey, I'll go. But it's only because of you, not her," she emphasized.
Chuck breathed a sigh of relief and got on the plane, Yvette still in his arms.
Karen looked at Yvette again and felt that she was quite alright. But was she compatible with Chuck? Karen wasn't sure about that. After all, the best candidate to be her daughter-in-law in her heart was Willa.
"Let's take off," Karen said eventually.
The helicopter took off and headed towards Duncan's location. The helicopter was very fast. It flew straight and reached its destination in less than half an hour.
There were gunshots heard. Karen loaded her gun and pulled the trigger suddenly and a strangled yell was heard. A man hidden in the shadows had been shot dead.
Karen's skills were legendary. Chuck was watching closely at her every shot. Yvette felt that there was a huge gap between herself and Karen. "Am I destined to be unable to kill Karen?" she thought.
Thinking of this, Yvette glared at Karen harshly. At this time, she thought of pushing Karen out of the helicopter and let her fall to her death.
However, just thinking about it made Yvette's heart hurt with grief. "This is not going to work. Chuck is here, it's not right. I should be facing Karen head-on, not stab her in the back like this. Moreover, Chuck would see and..." she rationalized inwardly.
"Mom, there's another one over there," Chuck pointed out as he saw another person coming for them.
"Alright, I'll get it." Karen was quick-witted. Just like that, she turned and pulled the trigger. A scream was then heard.
Soon, the helicopter stopped on an empty plain. Karen got off the helicopter holding a gun while Chuck came down with Yvette in his arms. Chuck was excited. He was finally going to seek his revenge from Duncan now.
