Chapter 893: Chapter 893: Amulet_1
Alexander Summers didn’t like the atmosphere on the yacht either.
In fact, due to its proximity to the river, many wealthy people in Clearwater City liked to purchase yachts. They threw parties on the river, or even invited a few friends to float downstream into the sea, which was quite fashionable.
Alexander thought he must have attended similar events in the past, with songs and dances on the yacht…
As he was lost in thought, the petite woman in his arms snuggled closer into his embrace, sleeping hazily like a small animal, unconsciously drawing warmth from his chest.
Alexander held her tighter and gently pressed his lips to Purple Summers’s forehead, then closed his eyes and fell asleep.
That night, he had an incredibly realistic dream.
In the dream, it was a similar yacht. He was in the room, idly smoking out of boredom, seemingly in a bad mood, somewhat irritable.
Zack Wallace held up a very thin, dark piece of clothing and turned the lining inside out for him to see.
“…It’s said to be a new kind of material. While not as reliable as a bulletproof vest, it’s light to wear. When hit by a bullet, this inner layer will wrap around the bullet at the moment of contact with high temperatures to prevent it from exploding.”
There are many types of firearms and ammunition. Being hit by a bullet isn’t terrifying if it doesn’t damage the vital organs.
The terrifying ones are those that explode upon hitting the body, blowing a hole inside, creating a bloody, mangled mess that’s hard to heal. Either you bleed to death, or the muscle and bone necrosis leave a disability.
Alexander put on the clothing underneath his old-fashioned Mandarin jacket, while Zack continued to babble in his ear.
“The clothing is just a precaution… Damian Howard’s sniper has been dealt with by us. Once the party starts, our people across the river will shoot towards the deck. You just need to pretend to be hit and fall into the water. Everyone will think Damian Howard killed you. Our boat will be waiting 100 meters away, and the diver is also ready.”
Zack Wallace sighed, then added, “With you ‘dead,’ he’ll smoothly take over as the family head. Sir, this way we’ve done our duty to him too.”
Alexander extinguished his cigarette in the ashtray and asked indifferently, “Is everything arranged in Pearlpoint City?”
“All set. All assets have been transferred to Alexander Summers’s name. You can make it public whenever you’re ready.”
Alexander nodded expressionlessly, “Get off the boat and get ready, but beware of Damian leaving a trick behind.”
Upon hearing this, Zack nodded. He took out his cell phone to instruct his subordinates to start the operation but accidentally brought out a string of copper coins from his pocket.
The heavy copper coins clattered to the floor.
Alexander raised an eyebrow, “What’s that?”
The source of this c𝐨ntent is freёnovelkiss.com.
“It’s an amulet Hunter Dalton gave me…” Zack bent over to pick up the coins, complaining, “It’s such a hassle to carry every day, and he insists that not one can be missing.”
As Zack spoke, he looped the copper coins around his finger a couple of times.
Whether the red string holding the coins was worn out or the impact from the fall loosened the knot, the coins suddenly scattered everywhere from Zack’s hand!
“Damn!” Zack cursed in annoyance, hastily bending down to pick them up!
Alexander looked on with impatience.
The round copper coins rolled about, scattering here and there—some under the bed, others into the cracks of the cabinets.
Zack had no choice but to lie on the floor to pick up the coins under the bed.
Alexander, irritated, kicked him, “Are you done picking them up?”
Zack counted the coins in his hand sheepishly; he was missing two.
“It seems like they bounced into the cracks…” he replied awkwardly.
Clenching his teeth inwardly, he felt deeply embarrassed by the mess Hunter had caused him!
With a belly full of grievances and under Alexander’s unfriendly gaze, Zack gritted his teeth and moved the bedside cabinet, but his expression suddenly changed dramatically.
“Sir…” Zack turned his head pale-faced, “There’s a bomb here.”
