Chapter 738 - Seven Hundred And Thirty-eight: Got Your Back (2/2)
”Are you kidding me?”
”Look,” He told her, ”I can't be on the lookout for Mikhail and protect you at the same time!”
”Like I need your protection! I'm not helpless, Andrew! I can protect myself and that's what I've been doing all these years,” she defended herself.
”Look, it's not that I doubt your capabilities but it's dangerous right now and I think one of our own must have betrayed us for Mikhail to have escaped this easily. I just don't want you to get.....” Andrew trailed off when a gun dangled from Maggie's hand with her brows arched arrogantly,
”You were saying?”
Andrew's eyes widened and he at once reached for the gun in his waistband only to come up with nothing.
He sighed in defeat, ”Fine, you can come along but stay behind me where I can protect you,”
”And who would protect you?” she asked him.
Andrew's mouth remained open, unable to answer that. She rolled her eyes, ”Males, so egoistic,”
But he said, ”You got my back, don't you?”
Maggie's heart flustered. Seriously!
”Go,” Was all she said but her expression has given Andrew all the answers he wanted.
They first went to the meeting room where he saw that the both men that had escorted him were dead. There were supposed to be three in total left to execute Mikhail but with only two bodies seen, that confirmed his suspicion - he betrayed them.
”Lets go to the control room,” He said to Maggie and together they arrived at the surveillance area only to see that Emerald was already before them.
”We were betrayed,” Andrew informed him.
”I know,” Emerald said calmly.
Andrew then looked at the screen that showed their people battling it out with what's left of Mikhail's men. They were the ones who released the shots they heard.
”They're not here,” Andrew said as he glanced through the numerous cameras all at once.
”Yeah, our member with him must be good at evading cameras since he knows this place well,” Emerald then pointed at one of the screens, ”This was the last place he was last seen,”
”If that's the case…” Andrew rubbed his jaw, thinking hard, ”Then he must plan to go out through the forest and that can only be achieved through the secret passageway and the fight outside -”
”Was him buying time to escape,” Emerald figured out as well, ”You have to get him,”
He didn't need to be told twice, Andrew turned at once only to go make his gang proud only to discover that Maggie was gone and one of them here was missing a gun.
”Oh shit,”
