Awakening the War God novel Chapter 22

Chapter 22 Humiliation

The inevitable had finally arrived.

Gabriel stood up and sighed.

Then, his tone softened as he addressed Mia, "The Foster family alone is not enough to deal with the Davis family. However, since you have chosen to stand with me, I will undoubtedly help you destroy the Davis family and save you all the future trouble."

He was certain that these police officers were sent here by the Davis family.

The second round of the game was on, and he would fight officials.

He would like to see what tricks the Davis family had up their sleeves.

"You should first think about how to get out of the police station!"

Mia's expression remained cold, and she was indifferent to Gabriel's words.

He was correct about one thing, though. The Foster family could not deal with the Davis family.

They were simply not on the same level.

Her stepmother, Sophia, had chosen Gabriel, not only because of the $15 million-worth contract. She was most attracted to the influence of Apex Bank.

In Silverwood, everyone knew that Leon, the president of Apex Bank, was omnipotent.

She was just worried that Sophia had made the wrong choice.

"Alright, believe it or not. After I have a cup of coffee at the police station and test the depth of Silverwood's officialdom, we can talk again when I return!"

Gabriel walked slowly toward the entrance, but Ava grabbed his hand.

"Will everything be fine?" Ava asked, forcing a smile.

"Don't worry, I'll be back soon!"

Gabriel reassured her with a faint smile, then turned to the police officers at the door and said, "Guys, I know you were sent by the Davis family. Let's not waste any more time. I have to come back after having a cup of coffee there.

"Whether you can come back or not is not up to you!"

Robert, one of the officers, took out a pair of handcuffs and put them on Gabriel.

Gabriel's expression instantly turned cold.

He was being summoned, not to the extent of being handcuffed. It seemed intentional.

This also confirmed his suspicion. They were indeed sent by the Davis family.

However, he didn't resist. 'Let the game begin!'

And so, he was taken away from Ava's home.

Ava's heart was filled with anxiety the moment the door closed.

She paced back and forth, feeling lost. Finally, she stopped and turned to Mia, asking, "Gabriel will come back safely, right?"

Mia had always been her pillar of support.

Many times, her sister had provided answers and helped her.

"Ava, tell me, have you really fallen in love with Gabriel?"

Mia didn't answer Ava's question but responded with a question of her own.

She knew her sister very well.

Ava had high standards and wouldn't easily be attracted to an ordinary man.

She liked handsome guys and would not marry one with an ordinary appearance.

And Gabriel seemed to meet Ava's requirements.

He was handsome and frivolous.

That kind of bad boy vibe was most attractive to girls.

Moreover, with his mysterious background at the Apex Bank, he practically fulfilled all of Ava's fantasies.

Mia could see that her sister had fallen for the man.

Ava nervously bit her lip and nodded.

Her shy demeanor said it all.

"Gabriel is not an ordinary person. This love of yours will absolutely bring you endless torment in the end. You have to think twice!"

Mia helplessly closed her eyes.

Gabriel carried too much mystery and too many secrets.

Ava's innocence simply couldn't integrate into a world of deceit and treachery.

Or rather, as Gabriel's identity gradually surfaced, the distance between Ava and Gabriel would only grow wider.

They simply didn't belong to the same world.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Ava, who had her head down, thought that Gabriel had returned. She sorted out her thoughts and happily trotted over.

Without thinking about it, she opened the door.

But just as she cracked the door open, someone forcefully pushed it, causing the door to swing wide open.

"Ouch!"

The force caused Ava to tumble to the ground.

Before she could shout abuse, eight men in black swiftly rushed into the house.

Before she could react, two of them came forward, propped her up, and carried her toward the bedroom.

"Let me go! Help!"

Ava's legs flailed in the air as she shouted in terror.

But she was too weak to break free from the two burly men.

"Ava!"

Mia, dressed in a tight-fitting outfit, became frantic when she saw Ava being held hostage.

With a swift stride, she crossed the coffee table and took a few steps forward.
