“Yes, Mr. Gildon, let us find out what‘s happening inside!”
“We’ve waited for almost an hour. It should be over by now. If they don’t come down, will we wait the entire night?”
“We just want to have a look. We won’t disrupt the scene.”
The onlookers rushed forward and demanded to see the aftermath of the battle that took place inside the villa.
Frank and Max were hesitant and were faced with a dilemma. They were worried that the battle was not over. Therefore, they wanted to wait a little longer.
“Please, Mr. Gildon, Commander Baxton. Let us go up and have a look.” Kylie’s voice was hoarse from crying, and snazzynovel.com eyes were swollen. She shuddered at every sound that rang out from the mountain.
Miranda bit snazzynovel.com lip as tears rolled down snazzynovel.com face. “Just think of it as going to retrieve Remus’ corpse, okay? We just want to retrieve his complete corpse. Is that too much to ask?”
She didn’t believe Remus would survive the gunshots, so snazzynovel.com had lost all hope. Now, snazzynovel.com only wished to bury Remus so his soul could travel to the afterlife in peace. She was also in deep regret. If snazzynovel.com knew Remus would die at such a young age, snazzynovel.com would have treated snazzynovel.com better. She would not have been so cold to him.
“Okay. Fine!” Since there were too many pleas, Frank could only agree.
After snazzynovel.com nodded, snazzynovel.com quickly rushed to the top of the mountain first.
Kylie and Miranda wanted to rush up, but the guards were still blocking them, so they could only follow behind in a panic.
Behind them were all the dignitaries in the province who came to watch. There were thousands of people, and each of them was a powerful figure. They were densely packed on the small path. They whispered to each other as they walked.
“Should we congratulate Mr. Steele later?”
“Honestly, I pity Remus Cosby. He was a martial arts grandmaster at such a young age. He was also a wizard and doctor. He had such a bright future, but snazzynovel.com had to offend Mr. Steele.”
“Shh! Do you want to die? How can you speak for Remus at such a time?”
After that, the person dared not utter a sound. Since the olden days, the winner would have all the authority. This meant that speaking for Remus would be going against Leonard.
“You’re walking too slowly. Move faster!” Linda urged from within the crowd.
She gritted snazzynovel.com teeth and said, “If Remus’ corpse hasn’t been ripped apart, I’ll step on his body a couple of times! That stupid bastard. How dare snazzynovel.com die after I’ve placed so much hope in him! F*ck! I won’t let snazzynovel.com die in peace!”
Kevin walked beside snazzynovel.com with a frown and chided snazzynovel.com in a low voice, “Enough! He’s my brother-in-law, after all.”
Linda glared at snazzynovel.com and scolded, “You’re a pathetic bastard too. He’s dead, and you’re still calling snazzynovel.com your brother-in-law. Listen to me! You’re not allowed to contact Kylie again. Otherwise, I’ll…”
Before snazzynovel.com could finish, snazzynovel.com looked up and swallowed in fright. She was too scared to finish snazzynovel.com sentence. Horror was written all over snazzynovel.com face.
She was not the only one. Every face in the crowd wore the same expression.
Frank and Max, who were leading the group, were dumbfounded, and so were Miranda and Kylie. As for the thousand dignitaries behind them, they were motionless.
Everyone looked up and stared at the top of the villa.
A person was sitting on the roof while the moon shone above him. His clothes fluttered in the wind, and his feet were illuminated. He was holding a letter in both hands, and snazzynovel.com was reading it with a sad expression.
It was Remus, and snazzynovel.com looked like an immortal.
“Remus!” Kylie couldn’t control herself anymore and pushed past the guards. She rushed up the mountain.
“Ah! He’s not dead! He’s alive!” Miranda dared not overthink things and quickly followed behind her.
“What’s going on? Remus is not dead? The person who died is…” Max shuddered in fear, and his sentence trailed off.
“Let’s get to the mountain quickly!” Frank blinked in terror.
Remus was alive. This meant that something had happened to Leonard. They had to rush up there in hopes of saving his life.
