CHAPTER 523 FATAL STARE

A miserable scream echoed in the night sky, bringing the house’s dead silence to another level.

Under everyone’s surprise gaze, the man was crippled with his bone being twisted in an arc.

Some people gasped in disbelief as if they were the victim.

Unexpectedly, this woman was a brutal killer.

"Is she really from the action zone? I don't think I know anyone so cruel from there."

"She’s more powerful than most action zone masters. She may come here for the Watts."

Some timid guests offered to leave one after another in case not to piss off someone from the action

zone.

"Mr. Watts, I think we should leave now."

"Me too. Have a nice party, Mr. Watts."

They bypassed Nadine when they left, for fear that she would hurt them.

Soon, only a few guests left with the Watts, most of whom stayed here to watch the fun.

They didn't think Nadine could get away unscathed no matter how great she was.

After all, the Watts family was one of the three prestigious forces in Hopkins.

The other two prestigious families, the Palmer family, and the Grant family were yet to come.

The Watts family members regained their senses from shock.

"You’re just a bodyguard. How dare you barge in and make a mess?" They glared at Nadine.

"Today is my grandfather's 70th birthday. We tried our asses to keep blood away from the party. Don’t

you ever get yourself out of this until you explained it away to us?" Jonah growled when sheer anger

ran on his face.

His grandfather just made him the next family patriarch. He needed to act like one.

Nadine glanced at him indifferently as if she was staring a prey.

"Explanation? Fine, How about this?"

Nadine sneered and flashed to approach Jonah under everyone’s fearful gaze.

Jonah froze with panic. "Somebody to protect me!"

But it was too late. Nadine had slapped Jonah away. It was a real bloodbath.

"Is that good enough to be an explanation? Or do you want some more?"

Nadine picked up the wet wipes on a table and cleaned the blood on her hands calmly.

Everyone present was stunned with their tongues tied.

Jonah, the new patriarch, now was beaten like a rented mule. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Ayan's wrinkled face distorted with rage as he cursed, "Bitch, you ruined my 70th birthday. I don't care

who's coming to save you out. You're all going to die here!"

"Don't flatter yourself, you old stuff."

Nadine added through a sneer, "Forget about your birthday party. I'll make it your funeral."

Her words wowed everyone present. They finally figured out that Nadine wanted to take Ayan’s life.

Nadine turned to the Jeep and reported in a loud voice that could draw everyone’s attention. "Young

master, Emilia isn’t here. Do we need to handle this in particular ways?"

Only then did the guests see the vague figure of a man sitting in the back seat of the Jeep.

He then waved to gesture a yes.

People wondered how powerful this young master could be when he had a skillful female bodyguard.

The Watts members trembled with fear because they knew this "young master" was Leo, Emilia's

father. He was looking for his daughter!

Soon, gazed at turned cold, Nadine rushed over to Ayan, grabbed his throat, and lifted him up.

"Tell me now! Where did you hide Emilia? Otherwise, there’s a bloody slaughter soon!"

Nadine's voice was laced with killing intent, bringing down the temperature around.

"Let go... let go of me!"

Ayan could hardly breathe as Nadine grabbed him on the neck like a dying goat.

His legs were kicking violently as if he were being drowned in the mire.

"Let go of Grandpa!"

"This’s the Watts house! How dare you run wild here? You’re so dead!" Some of the Watts still bluffed

through fear.

A wry smile cracked on Nadine's face. "If you want to deal with this a hard way, do it."

Nadine said as she flung Ayan to the wall, and soon, he was streaming with blood.

"Grandpa!" People scurried to Ayan and helped him up.

Jonah let out a bellow of tearful rage while staring at Nadine, "How could you beat an old man like

that?"

Nadine satirized, "Emilia is just a five-year-old kid, and look at what you've done to her? I think I

learned this from you."

"You..." Jonah choked on words. Suddenly, he felt a tinge of regret over messing with Emilia, but now it

was a bad time to confess.

He huffed, "Are you saying we kidnapped Leo's daughter? Do you have any proof?"

"We don't have any," Nadine said matter-of-factly. Jonah thought he could dodge a bullet, but the next

sentence Nadine said stressed Jonah out again.

"Mr. Cohen said he won’t mind mowing a whole family down until he finds Emilia."

Everyone present fell into deadly silence, for fear of the incoming massacre because Emilia was indeed

in this house. This would get their whole family destroyed!

"Bring all the bodyguards here, and let them take guns!" Jonah snapped and beckoned all the

bodyguards over. Soon, they were swallowed up in the crowd of bodyguards.

Jonah bluffed, "I know you're good, but no one can fight alone, especially if there’re guns."

But Nadine ignored him and walked to the Jeep.

"Young master, I'll need a moment."

The window was rolled down, revealing Leo’s beautiful jawline.

"Make it a minute. I don't have that much time." Leo ordered.

He then rolled the window up and rest in the backseat as if he had foreseen the outcome.

Everyone viewed Leo as a mad man. As was it known to all, Leo had torn down the former residence of

the Watts family, which forced the Watts to spend good money on hiring skillful bodyguards.

The bodyguard team now contained big guys as strong as a horse, so it might be unlikely for Nadine to

handle them within a minute, let alone the leading guy was a boxer.

He said to Nadine in a lousy Winbury accent, "Looks like someone is a coward!" It had become the

voice of these quiet audiences.

Rumors had it that Leo was a good fighter, but now, he was no more than a wimp who took the credit

from his assistant.

Nadine was composed as she said, "As weak as you, I shouldn’t bother Mr. Cohen."

"What?" Everyone, including the Watts, was distraught.

Jonah laughed through extreme anger, "That's some tough talk. Hank is the former captain of the

Sunset Marine Corps. Who the hell are you?"

Nadine then burst into a sneer.

Hank added, "As a gentleman, I never hit a woman. You can fight with one of my men."

To Hank, Nadine was just a woman who didn’t deserve any of his efforts.

The bodyguards, but not Hank, charged toward Nadine.

Nadine put on a bloodthirsty smirk and said, “You should feel lucky this isn't a battlefield. Otherwise,

you would have died before you moved."

As her voice trailed off, Nadine rushed into the crowd like a tiger into a herd of sheep.

It was a sheer slaughter, for none of those bodyguards had a chance to resist.

They didn't even have a chance to fire their guns before Nadine knocked them all down.

Dumbfounded, Hank was the only one that was left.

His jaw dropped, and he looked at Nadine as if she was a monster. Nadine was even more powerful

than some of their instructors, he assumed.

Then the back window of the Jeep was rolled down.

Leo poked his head out to watch and appreciated Nadine with a nod.

"Not bad. 57 seconds. It’s progress."

Nadine blushed with excitement. "Thank you, young master!"

Leo drifted his gaze onto Hank and frowned, "Why is he still here?"

Before Nadine explained, Leo’s eyes scanned Hank from head to toe.

Leo’s calm but stern glance caused a huge blow to Hank’s pride.

"He …"

Hank trembled with fear when he stared at Leo’s face.

"You're the Co-Commander..."

Hank's tongue was tied, and his forehead broke a sweat.

He really wanted to say something, but the strong fear got his tongue.

Everyone was confused by Hank’s surprised face.

They had no idea that Hank was the former captain of the Sunset Marine Corp.

Several years ago, Hank was involved in small-scale combat against the Wyverns Corp of Pompeii,

and the Commander of Wyverns, the Guard of Northernland.

Hank and his troops were completely annihilated at that time. He was the only survivor.

But none of the Wyverns had died or even got injured.

That combat was a lifetime nightmare for Hank. On the battlefield, he had caught a glimpse of the

Commander from a distance. He was just the same guy who was sitting in the car.

Hank was almost out of breath from panic, and he felt his heart had skipped a beat when he met Leo’s

eyes.

Then Hank, the former captain of the Sunset Marine Corp, had passed out and fallen to the ground with

a thud.
