Chapter 1284


    "Since we''re after your life, it''s impossible for us to get caught in the crossfire,” Arthur smirked


    confidently. "No matter how many of you there are, if you run into us, you''re out of luck."


    "We''ll see who''s out of luck, Arabe retorted, her eyes dancing with excitement.


    Ten seconds passed.


    Twenty seconds passed.


    Then half a minute.


    Arthur couldn''t believe his eyes as he saw Arabe and Gordon untouched.


    How could this be?


    Weren''t they supposed to be affected within five seconds?


    Arabe smirked, "Didn''t the one who sold you these powders tell you who made them?"


    Of course, they did!


    The vendor imed they were personally made by Ms. Aria!


    There was no way they could be faulty.


    Could he have been sold a fake?


    “Take them down!"


    As soon as Gordon finished speaking, Bowen and his gang began to resist.


    Arabe watched from the sidelines. Spotting someone attempting to sneak attack Gordon, she kicked


    a fallen tissue box at him, hitting him square in the head.


    The man yelped in pain, and Gordon finally realized that Ms. Be had saved him.


    At that moment, Arabe appeared ethereal, like a divine being descended from heaven.


    For a moment, he waspletely awestruck.


    Another man tried to escape through the window, but Arabe swiftly picked up a small knife from the


    floor and threw it like a dart.


    The silver de whizzed past the man''s face and embedded itself into the curtain, causing him to


    nearly jump out of his skin.


    Within less than ten minutes, all of them were apprehended. To prevent them frommitting suicide,


    Gordon ordered their mouths to be gagged.


    “Take them to the boss for disposal."


    When Gordon finished speaking, Arabe interrupted, "It''s toote now. Let Uncle Bard and


    Grandfather rest.


    We''ll report to them tomorrow."


    “Understood.” Gordon respectfully epted themand, "First, let''s lock them up."


    Arthur and his gang were led away.


    Bowing slightly, Gordon said, "Ms. Be, I apologize for the disturbance."


    "Do I look disturbed?"


    Gordonughed. She indeed did not.


    Such a major event would have left any ordinarydy scared witless.


    Yet, Ms. Be looked as calm as ever, as though she didn''t care about these people at all.


    "Ms. Be, isn''t there something wrong with those white powders? My men and I inhaled quite a bit of


    it, but nothing happened."


    It was truly miraculous.


    "Before you guys arrived, I had lit some rose incense."


    Arabe''s statement made Gordon realize the faint scent of roses in the air.


    So, it was the scent of the roses that saved them.


    "How did you know they were going to sprinkle that powder? And how did you know how to counter it?"


    "I guessed."


    If they hadn''t sprinkled the powder, the rose scent wouldn''t have harmed them anyway. Even if they

    inhaled a lot, it wouldn''t matter.


    "You''ve had a long day too. Go back and rest.” Arabe nced at the time. It was already past two in


    the morning.


    Half an hourter.


    When Arabe came out after her bath, she found that Gordon had cleaned the entire room.
