Chapter 948
James asked, "Where are you right now?’
"In a small town called Vos," Isaac replied.
"You need to leave right away," James urged him and hung up before Isaac could say a word.
Isaac frowned and said, "We have to go."
"We haven't eaten yet," Zachary pointed out.
"No time," Isaac said, knowing that the gang were after them.
There was no other reason James would sound so urgent, and Isaac was concerned if James would be fine,
especially since James hung up so suddenly.
Irene in turn told Stan right away, "Get the car."
Stan began, "But it isn't fixed..."
"It's fine. Just go,’ Irene urged nonetheless.
It was fine since it was just the rear windshield-the jeep could still move.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith that, Stan started running to the garage, while Irene helped Isaac to his feet as they left.
Zachary was looking around as he asked, 'Who are those people? They're relentless."
All Isaac knew was that they found out about the gang's secret. It was serious enough that once it was exposed,
they would lose a lot of money and be implicated for it.
That was why they were bent on silencing any witnesses!
In fact, just as Isaac and the rest stepped outside the restaurant, there was a loud bang and the bullet fired
shattered the glass door!
Irene quickly pulled Isaac back inside to hide behind a table, while the other customers in the restaurant started
screaming and scrambling for cover as well!
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
"Argh!"
There were screams everywhere!
Zachary returned to them just then and tugged at Irene. "There's a back door."
Irene nodded, and both of them shielded Isaac while staying low, darting through the tables and the scrambling
crowd to reach the back door.
Zachary did not run outside immediately but instead called Stan. ’Bring the car to the back of the restaurant! It has
a back door leading to the alley behind it!"
"Okay!" Stan replied, while the streets suddenly cracked with gunfire as well.
The shots were not aimed for them this time-it was a firefight, and the scene was utter pandemonium!
"There are others?!" Zachary exclaimed.
Irene shook her head, indicating her confusion.
Isaac suggested, ’Could it be James?"
There was no way they would fight amongst themselves.
However, Zachary did not dare to poke his head out to look when there were two gangs with guns and bullets being
fired everywhere!
One stray would be enough to kill!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZachary whipped out his phone and tried to call James, but he could not reach James.
What should they do? They were caught in the restaurant, with both front doors and back doors blocked!
Zachary was sweating buckets from his forehead, unable to come up with anything just then!
At the same time, Irene was squeezing Isaac's hand and sweating profusely from her palm.
Still, the gunfire died down for a moment, only to get even more violent after!
Zachary cursed. ’Those f*ckers don't care if they live!"
Beside him, Irene's expression was somber—they would have no way out if the gunfire shifted into this restaurant.
They needed a way to escape!
Bzzt!
Zachary's phone started to vibrate in his pocket, and he answered it when he saw that it was Stan's number.
However, it was James who spoke from the other end. "Where are you right now?"
"At this restaurant called Aalla! We're inside without a way out!’ Zachary replied.
"Stan is with me. I'll try to draw them away while Stan comes to you. You need to get out of Dunesia-this gang
basically controls this area."
"Okay!" Zachary replied. He then put away his phone and turned to Irene." We're saved. James has arrived too, and
he might be fighting those gangsters, but he said that the gang has control over this area-we need to go.’
