Charlie wasn’t shocked at all to see Deana and Zara stepping out. He had long suspected that this situation was far moreplicated than it appeared. Now that Deana and Zara had emerged under Tate Landry’s pressure, his suspicions were only reinforced. However, Charlie couldn’t quite grasp who would go to such lengths to capture Deana and Zara.


    At this moment, Deana and Zara, the mother-daughter duo, had fully exited the Treasure Pavilion. Tate Landry was behind them, gripping a gun in one hand and a detonator tightly in the other, following closely.


    He looked around, sneering at the police officers surrounding him, and dered, “I know you’ve got snipers positioned all around, ready to take me out at a moment’s notice. But I suggest you think this through. With this detonator in my hand, even a toddler could set it off with a simple touch. If you’re not afraid to die, then by all means, let your snipers take their shot!”


    Captain White responded coldly, “Tate Landry, don’t worry! As long as you don’t make any rash moves, we won’t fire at you. You have a car ready, and you can leave whenever you want! But before you go, you must release the hostages!”<fnb64b> Find the newest release on FindN()vel</fnb64b>


    Tate Landryughed mockingly, saying, “Do you take me for a child? These two hostages are staying with me until I’m sure I’ve shaken off your pursuit. If you’re wise, you won’t send anyone after me. Once I’m safe, I’ll let them go.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Then, his expression twisted cruelly as he added, “But if I catch wind of any of you trying to follow me, I’ll drive straight to the city center and detonate this!”


    Captain White’s face darkened, but he restrained his anger and replied, “Don’t worry. We won’t send anyone to follow you!”


    Tate Landry sneered, “Pleasure doing business with you!”


    With that, hemanded Deana and Zara, “You two, get in the car! Sit in the back seat!”


    Deana felt no hesitation as she pulled Zara into the back seat of the Rolls-Royce. Meanwhile, Tate Landry swaggered into the driver’s seat, armed with the gun and detonator. The Rolls-Royce was ready to go; all he had to do was shift into gear and elerate out of there. He mmed the car into gear and sped towards the gate of the courtyard.


    Captain White quickly ordered the officers at the entrance to move aside. The previously tight circle of police opened up, allowing Tate Landry to step on the gas. The Rolls-Royce’s engine roared to life as they sped away from the scene at breakneck speed.


    Once they were clear of the building, a police officer rushed over to Captain White and asked, “Captain White, should we send our inclothes officers to follow them?”


    Captain White hesitated, then replied, “Tate Landry is very aware of his surroundings. If we send a vehicle to follow him and he notices, it could lead to disastrous consequences.”


    He then instructed, “Let’s issue an urgent alert across the city. We’ll utilize the traffic monitoring system to track Tate Landry’s Rolls-Royce in real-time. If he attempts to leave the city, we’ll coordinate our forces to intercept him!”


    Meanwhile, as he watched the Rolls-Royce disappear, Isaac Cameron let out a sigh of regret, saying, “Master, if someone truly intends to harm the seconddy of the Thorne Family and Zara as you suggested, they are likely in serious danger now.”


    Charlie nodded in agreement, stating, “There’s something missing here. The party responsible for orchestrating such an borate scheme isn’t just trying to scare them. The likelihood is they intend to kill them.”


    Isaac Cameron couldn’t help but ask, “Master, lives are at stake. Should we intervene?”
