Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

Chapter 466

466 Rescue mission (1)

“You thought. That’s your thoughts, not mine.” She glanced at Maverick. “I’ve done my part, I hope after you’ve brought back my student, you will finally give importance to your health. Those kids are fighting and blaming themselves, you should case their burden a little.” T

“Hm, thank you,” he said.

“I deserve it. See you and my sister–in–law soon.” Celestine patted his shoulder before she glanced one last time at the lady on the bed and left.

“H–hey, M–Mr. Lu…” the lady tried to smile but her lips wouldn’t stretch.

Maverick glanced at the Iv stand and started walking towards it. “You have something else you would like to add?”

“Mr. Lu, I- what you heard is not true. I- we-” no matter how hard she tried to come up with something, her mind wouldn’t obey her head.

“Maybe you don’t.” He held the Iv bag and observed it for a moment before he started playing with the roller clamp.

As he tampered with the roller, the drip started rushing instead of dripping through the transparent tube. The lady immediately understood that he was trying to kill her, so she hurriedly tried to pull the needle off her wrist, however, Code 2 who was standing a few feet away saw her and instantly appeared to pin her down and watched her struggle for her life until she grew weaker and weaker and/ finally lost her life.

Maverick didn’t leave the ward until the full bag of drip was emptied into the lady in less than three minutes. He saw the fear and regret before her eyes rolled into her head, yet he felt no pity.

The group left the hospital and went straight to the slum. On their way, Maverick made a digital sketch of their target based on the description from the raped victim. So by the time they got to the slum, he had sent the photo to Code 10 who distributed the picture to their elite group. So all the CODES have a picture of the victim.

Getting to the slum, the guards asked around with the picture from their phones. Those who knew where Lone wolf was, showed them the way.

Lone wolf had left to buy something to eat. When he returned, he didn’t smell anything fishy. The dimmed room wasn’t fortunate to see the glory of luxury or furniture except for his small bed and a massage chair in front of the large screens in front of him.

The guy sat back on the chair and opened the takeout he brought with him. Seeing the low–quality food, he sighed. “For how long will I continue to eat this poor food? I just hope these videos will be the last,” he clicked a button on the keyboard and the screens lit up.

On the screen was a video of Reuben kissing Jeslyn and leaving hickeys on her. “You are such a bad schemer. He even asked me to add an edited sex scene. Haha, I can’t believe you plan on ruining her reputation completely. With this, I’m sure a reputable man like Alpha Chaos would give up on her.

Haha-”

“What if I don’t?”

“You will-” Lone wolf froze. That was a voice! He sharply looked back and saw a silhouette standing behind him.

Lone wolf quietly and carefully got out of his massage chair. “Wh–who are you?”

“Where is Reuben hiding?” Maverick asked. Seeing the video play was making Maverick’s anger grow even bigger.

“Al–Alpha-”

Maverick started walking towards him, one step at a time. His broad and strong chest vibrating with wrath.

“I don’t know wh-”

Maverick closed the distance, got a strong grip on his neck and slammed him into the screen, breaking the screens and causing the images on the screen to die out.

Maverick pulled him up from the floor, grabbed him again and slammed him against the massage chair. Maverick, whom anger had blinded, continued to beat the devil out of Lone wolf who wasn’t given an opportunity to throw a punch.

Lone wolf’s agonizing screams were muffled by the sounds of his body destroying something or something damaging his bones.

Once Maverick felt he was done breaking every piece of his bones, he stopped and asked again. “Where is Reuben?” seeing he was willing to talk, Mav grabbed him by his shirt and pulled him close

to his ear.

“A–a–t… my–mysey foes-”

Even though Maverick beat the letter ‘R‘ and ‘T‘ out of his toothless mouth, Mav was still able to comprehend what he was talking about.

“Mystery forest!”

May released his shirt and allowed him to hit the back of his head on the floor. He brushed his black shirt and ordered while leaving the room.

“Destroy everything.”

“Yes, boss!”

It was already dark by the time he left the slum. On his way, he called Rex, “get a chopper ready.” Meanwhile, at the mystery forest, Damien, Randy, and another guard were able to make it out of the forest. The rest of the men were feasted on by wild animals. But that didn’t mean that those who - survived didn’t do so without severe injuries.

Damien was stabbed in the side of his stomach by a horn, Randy got lots of bruises, and the other guy was blinded in one eye with a few cracked bones.

Sitting under a tree while overlooking Reuben’s villa that was a few meters away, which was illuminated by security lights, Randy voiced out.

“We are finally out. Now, how do we fight in this condition?”

Damien, who was frowning from the severe pain in his rib, replied through gritted teeth.

“Who said we are fighting?”

“Then why are we here?” Randy couldn’t believe it. Did they risk their lives for sight–seeing?!

“His wife got kidnapped at my party and the bastard must be thinking I’m incompetent. So, we came here simply to find Reuben’s hideout and get Maverick to fight his own battle. Why else did you think I came here?”

“Wow. Master, you’ll never change. We could have easily told him where the hideout is without sacrificing our own men.”
