Chapter 999 Let Kurt Escape
Upon hearing those words amidst the fierce battle, Kurt began to tremble violently.
It wasn't out of fear but anger.
That despicable Cersei. She actually dared to play me.
Indeed, an opening was created, and they successfully made their way in.
However, what awaited him wasn't a coordinated attack from within and outside but a siege from all
sides.
Indeed, he made his way through the dense forest from the southeast. Before he could even approach
the main house, he was surrounded by a large group of people dressed in black.
“Cersei, don't let me leave alive, or I swear I'll make you wish you were dead.”
No sooner had the harsh words been spoken than Wilfred's voice followed closely behind.
“B*stard, you're at the end of your rope now. There's no escape, even if you have wings. Isn't it about
time you surrender gracefully? If you behave and stop resisting, perhaps I can grant you a whole
corpse, allowing you to die with dignity.”
“A whole corpse? Die with dignity?” Kurt burst into hearty laughter. “I appreciate your mercy, but even if
I'm reduced to ashes today, I'll still take a layer of skin off you.”
Wilfred's face darkened, his voice cold as he said, “You're courting death. If that's what you seek, then
I'll gladly oblige.”
After he finished speaking, he waved his hand at the people in black surrounding him and sternly
commanded, “Show no mercy to the rebels.”
“Yes.”
What followed was another intense battle.
Both sides suffered casualties, but the losses on Kurt's side were somewhat greater.
After all, this was the Venom Valley, Wilfred's territory. Even with his elite forces, Kurt couldn't withstand
the barrage of hidden arrows.
Seeing himself clearly at a disadvantage, Kurt began to panic.
He didn't want to die there, for he still had an ace up his sleeve that he hadn't used yet.
As long as he used Blaze to threaten Bailey, Cameron, and the others, he believed they would
obediently do as he said. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
In other words, he still had a chance to turn things around.
As long as Bailey and her group obediently followed his orders, assisting him in attacking the Venom
Valley, he would definitely have a chance to regain control of the White family.
Of course, all of this hinged on the premise that he must escape unscathed that day. Otherwise, it
would all just be empty talk.
With that in mind, he quickly turned to his few remaining subordinates and ordered, “Focus your fire.
Cover my escape.”
“Understood.”
When Wilfred saw him about to withdraw, his gaze suddenly grew cold.
One should finish a task entirely, or the effort might be wasted.
If I let him escape today, he might come back with a vengeance tomorrow, and the White family will
once again face a catastrophe.
This scoundrel must die. I can't let him escape, never.
“Increase our manpower. We must capture and kill him in—”
Before he could finish his words, a middle-aged man hurried over with a communicator in his hand.
“Old Mr. White, Mr. Luther has called. He said there's an urgent matter he needs to discuss with you.”
Wilfred instinctively wanted to refuse, but considering the power of the Luther family, which he could
not afford to offend, he could only just manage to suppress the impulse in his heart.
After taking the communicator from his subordinate, he placed it to his ear and said in a deep voice,
“Mr. Luther, the final battle here has reached its critical moment. My men will soon have Kurt under
control. Can we discuss any other matters after I've dealt with the internal strife? Is that all right?”
Artemis' indifferent yet assertive voice traveled from the other end of the line. “Release Kurt. Let him
escape.”
“What?” Wilfred stared incredulously at the communicator in his hand, frowning as he asked, “Mr.
Luther, what do you mean by this?”
“It means exactly what you think it does. After setting Kurt free, you don't need to worry about what
comes next.”
Wilfred directly opposed, “No way, that young man hates me to the core now. Releasing him would be
like breeding calamity for the future.”
“Old Mr. White, are you thinking that the excitement in your Venom Valley today is not enough and want
me to join in the fun? If you want me to bring some people for a visit to your territory, I can start
gathering them right now. Just remember that once I'm there, the White family will become the next
Rogers family. You better think it through.”
He's threatening me.
This is a blatant threat!
However, Wilfred dared not question the man's words.
A few days ago, the Luther brothers, in order to deal with the Rogers family, dispatched many experts
to Yannopolis.
If Artemis truly decided to take action against the White family, with the latter's current strength, they
simply wouldn't be able to resist.
Wilfred had finally wrestled back control from that malicious woman, and he certainly didn't want to
stand by and watch his family fall into ruin.
Those who submit to circumstances are wise. Despite his extreme reluctance, in the end, the head of
the White family had to compromise.
“All right, I'll let Kurt go. However, Mr. Luther, could you please tell me what you need him for?”
Artemis replied coldly, “Kurt used the Yablon family's prohibited drug, Soul Reaper, on me, causing me
to nearly lose my life. I will personally avenge this grudge. I don't want him to die at the hands of
others. When it comes to my enemies, I prefer to take matters into my own hands. I wonder if you could
accept my reasoning, Old Mr. White. If you cannot, then I'm afraid I'll have to make the trip there
myself.”
After hearing his explanation, Wilfred let out a sigh of relief.
His sole intention was nothing more than to wish for Kurt's death to eliminate any future troubles.
Now that Artemis was willing to take over, it couldn't be better.
“All right. I trust in Mr. Luther's integrity. You wouldn't deceive me. After all, Kurt is also your enemy.”
“Mm-hmm.”
After ending the call, Wilfred said to his subordinate standing nearby, “Let them release that b*stard but
remember to be discreet. Don't let him suspect anything.”
The subordinate overheard his conversation with Artemis, and he knew this was the best solution. So,
without another word, he went to make the arrangements.
Before long, news of Kurt's successful escape came from the breach.
Wilfred instructed them to send someone after him just for show and then sent a text message to
Artemis.
Artemis was a decisive man, a master strategist. Wilfred believed that the miscreant who fell into his
hands would not meet a good end.
Just as Artemis had predicted, Kurt escaped from the Venom Valley and immediately returned to the
castle.
Everything within the castle had returned to normal, successfully deceiving him and his remaining
forces.
After entering the castle, Kurt went straight back to the master bedroom.
Seeing “Blaze” lying on the bed, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
With this trump card in hand, even if he had suffered a terrible defeat earlier, there was still a chance
for him to make a comeback.
He strode over to the bed and unfastened the chains on Blaze's body.
He repeatedly patted her face but couldn't wake her up.
Just as he was preparing to press her down and have his way, his personal bodyguard suddenly
barged in from outside.
The pleasant moment was interrupted, and Kurt's anger was uncontrollable. He roared, “Can't you see
I'm in the middle of something important? Are you asking for trouble? Get lost.”
The personal bodyguard was somewhat speechless.
Disaster is looming, and you still have the mood to fool around with that woman here. You're utterly
foolish and incompetent.
“Mr. Kurt, Artemis and Bailey are outside the castle. T-They—”
Before he could finish speaking, Kurt immediately sprang up from the bed.
“Just in time, Bailey and Artemis. Your arrival is just perfect. It saves me the trouble of looking for you.”
As soon as his words fell, he reached out to pick up Blaze on the bed, or Cersei, to be more accurate.
He lifted the woman up, then, dragging her, he strode toward the door.
With this woman in my grasp, what can they possibly do to me?
