They'll Never Leave Alive
Natalia felt a moment of panic. However, she quickly steeled her nerves.
She said, "Whatever plan they have, we'll win as long as they're dead!'
Since things had come this far, there was no turning back. As long as she could kill Emelie and William, especially Emelie, she would gain a huge victory. Everything else could be dealt with afterward.
If the police started investigating, she could find scapegoats. If there was evidence left behind, she could bribe high-ranking officials to destroy it. If everything failed and she had to go to court, she had the best defense team to let her off scot-free.
There was nothing that she couldn't do. It was just a matter of killing two people. What was the big deal?Property © of .
As for public opinion or online trolls, who cares about the thoughts of a bunch of nobodies?
She wanted the Filo family, the Filo Group, and its vast business empire. If she wanted to wear the crown, she had to bear its weight. She was willing to take some risks and pay whatever price was necessary. After all, she had the resources to do so.
Natalia was determined to go all in. "I've got everything in place. There's no way they're leaving Mylen alive. Just wait for my good news!"
With that, she hung up decisively.
"Fool!" Beathan thought to himself as he slammed his phone to the ground, his chest heaving with fury.
He kept his eyes on the computer screen, watching a live stream of the car chase.
The last time someone staged such a movie-like scene before the entire world was during the 1994 Harrison Case.
Back then, it was the same scene. The entire nation of Lablos watched on television as helicopters in the sky and patrol cars on the ground pursued Harrison in a live broadcast of his attempted escape.
Beathan took off his glasses, his unshielded eyes sharp and cold.
At this point, all he could do was hope that the overly confident Natalia really had what it took to eliminate Emelie and William. Nothing would be worse than William and Emelie returning safely to their positions.
He exhaled sharply and picked up his phone, dialing Ashley's number again.
The phone rang, but there was no answer. He had lost count of how many messages he'd sent Ashley and how many calls he'd made to her.
Ashley hadn't replied, hadn't answered, but she hadn't blocked him either.
Her method was ruthless. She kept him on the hook, giving him a sliver of hope that one day she might pick
up.
However, each time that she didn't, that hope would shatter, plunging him into even deeper despair. He knew that she was there but was unable to reach her.
When the phone stopped ringing, Beathan re-dialed her number. He leaned back against the wall and slid down to the floor, closing his eyes.
Ever since he'd gotten stuck in Capebatt City and questioned by the police daily, his nerves had been stretched thin. He hadn't had a moment of peace.
However, listening to the unanswered ringtone gave him a brief respite.
The taxi, under the watchful eyes of many, made it to the airport just in time to catch the flight bound for Capebatt City.
However, just one minute before the plane was set to take off, a loud explosion suddenly echoed across the
open tarmac.
The plane exploded in an instant, turning into a massive pile of debris. This scene was captured on camera and would later be dubbed the "Plane Tragedy Witnessed by All."
Natalia received the news of the explosion immediately, her eyes gleaming with twisted excitement. "Great! Very good! They're finally dead. Dead at my hands, after all. They didn't see it coming. I had a backup plan and planted a bomb on the plane. Even if they made it to the airport and got on the plane, there was no way they'd leave Mylen!" she said.
Her confidant, watching the same news of the explosion, was terrified. 'But, Mrs. Russo, the police have caught David and Charlie, they were the ones who planted the bomb-
Natalia was unconcerned. 'Their families are in my hands. They won't dare say a word. Ha! I'd love to see Cronus's face when he finds out that Mandy is dead. It will be very interesting!"
