Chapter 299 THE ATTACK (4)
Chapter 299 THE ATTACK (4)
Aileen did not expect that Leon’s men would take her to the Tordoff residence directly from the hotel. She looked clueless when she saw the Tordoff family’s house towering in front of her and only after they stopped right in front of these magnificent black gates did Aileen realize how many cars were heading this way.There were about ten cars lined up blocking the way in and out of the gates.
Then the next question is; how many people are in each car? And why were they bringing so many people to the Tordoff residence while Ramon, Lexus and Lis were elsewhere.
They weren’t home at all.
Aileen still had no idea what was going to happen until she saw the person driving the car get down and pull out a gun.
It happened so fast and Aileen didn’t even have time to scream in terror when she saw the two guards falling to the ground covered in blood, having had gaping gunshot wounds to their heads.
It happened so suddenly and horribly. Aileen had never even seen an actual murder happening right before her eyes.
And before Aileen could really process what was really going on, the sounds of bullets being fired as well as rapidly spoken orders filled the car, as gunfire broke out.
”Shut up!” cried one of Leon’s men, snapping at Aileen as she screamed in terror while covering her ears, curled up in the back seat of the car. Her evening dress was rumpled while her hair and makeup looked a little messy, but Aileen didn’t care about that at all.
What is all this?!
================
Ian and Marco finally managed to incapacitate the other two people in the house and immediately moved to the room which was believed to be the place where they hid Ian’s sister.
The room was locked and they both had to break it down.
”Is it safe outside?” Marco asked through his earpiece. He asked the two people outside on watch just in case someone else came to the house and they both answered in unison with a single word; safe.
Marco then pointed his gun at the door handle and started shooting until the door broke and with just one kick, it slipped off its hinges.
However, as soon as the door opened and the two of them burst into the room, Marco and Ian were surprised, both looked around them and were silent for a moment.
Because not only did the two of them find Ciara, but about five other children between the ages of seven and Twelve were also in the room.
”Huh… what is all this?” Ian muttered in disbelief.
However, all of his questions and surprises disappeared when he found the person he was looking for.
Ciara, a little girl aged seven years was in the corner of the room, curled up on a thin mattress with an infusion needle stuck to her left arm. Her condition was so weak that she didn’t even open her eyes when Ian walked up to her and called her name.
”We have to get out of here, we have to take her to the hospital,” Ian said frantically. Then carefully, he removed the IV needle from the little girl’s arm and hugged her thin body.
Ciara’s body felt cold in his arms and this almost made Ian’s heart stop beating because he thought something bad had happened and he came so late.
However, soon Ian saw Ciara’s chest moving up and down, only then did he breathe out a sigh of relief.
”Marco, we have to get out of here, now!” Ian was so panicked, the only thing on his mind right now was to go to the hospital and get Ciara the help she needed.
Ian vowed to avenge this deed!
Marco was about to catch up with Ian, when one of the five kids tugged at his shirt and looked at him expectantly.
”I want to come with you,” said the little boy. His big eyes were begging Marco not to leave him there.
Soon the other four followed the little boy’s actions. They all stood up and looked at Marco expectantly.
”Don’t leave us here…” he said again in his childish voice.
Ugh!
What should I do…
Marco would feel really bad if he left the five kids behind, but after all, he was in the middle of a mission and they weren’t in the plans at all.
However, if Marco left them all here. No one can guarantee what will happen to them.
Maybe Leon’s men would come back and treat them badly. Marco wouldn’t even be surprised if they were killed.
================
”Where’s Marco?!” exclaimed Daniel, one of the bodyguards tasked with monitoring the situation along with Andrew. Daniel was bulkier than the other three, and he slung his rifle over his shoulder as he got into the car. “We must leave immediately.”
Marco was supposed to be in the car by now, and once Ian had managed to get Ciara out of danger, they had to leave immediately. However, the man was nowhere to be seen.
”There he is,” said Daniel. “What the hell is that?!” he exclaimed in surprise.
”Shit!” cursed Andrew.
In front of them, Marco was holding two small children in his arms with three other older children running after him.
”He’s crazy? Where did the kids come from?!” Andrew couldn’t believe what he was seeing.
Only Ian knew what had happened and because he was too worried about Ciara’s condition, he had forgotten about the children.
”Start the car and pick them up, quick! We have to go to the hospital immediately!” cried Ian.
That would save a lot of time, rather than having to wait for Marco to get to them.
”What are we going to do with the kids,” Andrew grumbled, but then he did as Ian asked and picked up Marco and the five little ones.
================
One person fell as soon as he stepped into the small conference room, the only door of which they had managed to break down.
The lights on them made it easier for Ramon to determine his target, but as soon as the lights came on, Ramon was a little disturbed by the sudden light.
And a bullet shot past his shoulder, making him grit his teeth while blood stained the shirt he was wearing.
Deftly, Ramon then grabbed Leon, using him as a shield to block the next shot and also buy time for help to arrive.
