Wace bellowed coldly, You bastard! Wilfred was hit by Waces words as if struck by lightning.


    A cold wave swept over Wilfred, causing him to shake.


    Desperately, he urged Amelie, Hurry! Finish him! Kill him now! When Amelie hesitated, he seized the gun from her hand and aimed it at Wace.


    Just as he pulled the trigger, both he and Amelie felt cold steel press against their backs.


    Dont move.


    I wont be responsible for an idental discharge!  Keith warned as he and Trent appeared behind them. The threat made Wilfred and Amelie freeze in ce.


    Give it to me! Keith said as he took the gun from Wilfred and tossed it to Hannah, who was seated nearby.


    What do you think, Hannah? Did we coordinate well? Hannah raised an eyebrow and remarked, Not bad.


    Despite looking pale, Wace maintained hisposure and said, Wilfred, I never imagined youd exploit my misfortune for your own gain! With the gun trained on him, Wilfreds bravado vanished, and he began to plead for mercy, saying, Wace, this has nothing to do with me! Desperate, he pointed at Amelie.


    It was all her n.


    I just followed her lead! Liar! Amelie spat at him in disgust.


    You said wed work together no matter what! Now you want to throw me under the bus to save yourself? Not a chance! With that, she turned her furious gaze on Wace and Hannah. In a way, he drugged you also.


    He knew I was involved, or why else would he havee to the hospital so quickly to cause you trouble? Amelies voice rose to a fever pitch.


    I never thought this would backfire! Wilfred, youre an idiot! If I had known, Id never have partnered with you! ring at Hannah, Amelie let out a menacingugh.


    It doesnt matter now.


    None of us are getting out alive.


    But Hannah, you wont escape either. No one will leave here in peace! Ha-ha-ha!! Laughing maniacally, she suddenly pulled out a grenade from her pocket, shocking everyone.


    Before she could act, Keith swiftly fired three shots! Bang! Bang! Bang! Amelies eyes widened as her strength drained from her body, and she copsed to the ground, blood pooling beneath her.


    Hannahs heart sank.


    She nced at Keith, who was visibly shaken by what he had done.


    Terrified by Amelies death, Wilfred fell to his knees, pleading, Wace, dont kill me! It wasnt my n! I was just a pawn! I couldnt disobey them! Please, let me live, and Ill serve only you! Hannah turned to Wace, whoy in bed, and remarked coldly, Dad, Amelies gone.


    One more death wont make a difference.


    What do you think?
