Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 720

Douglas tapped play.

The video revealed a damp, shadowy, subterranean room.

Mr. White was strapped to a heavily rusted iron chair, his face slick with blood. A filthy rag was shoved into his mouth, and the cold barrel of a pistol was pressed firmly against his temple. The esteemed doctor was shaking uncontrollably.

The man holding the gun spoke through an encrypted voice modulator. The distorted, mechanical tone was chilling. "Rex. It's been a long time."

"I hear you acquired a very lucrative toy recently. You're holding The Ghost Alliance Neural Chip, aren't you?"

"I'm giving you one hour. Trade the chip for his life, or else..."

The distorted voice let out a sickening, raspy laugh. The man's free hand violently plunged a tactical combat knife straight into Mr. White's thigh.

"Mmph!" Mr. White released a muffled, agonizing scream through the gag.

The metallic laugh echoed again. "Consider that a small greeting. I hear... Holden's upcoming surgery relies entirely on our good friend Mr. White here. If he bleeds out, I wonder how long the old man will survive without him?"

The video abruptly cut to black.

Douglas stared at the frozen screen, fixated on the final frame of the hand holding the gun to Mr. White's head.

On the gunman's forearm... there was a very clear tattoo of a bleeding, venomous wasp.

"The Phantom Hornets!" Douglas's sharply chiseled face was obscured in shadow, a terrifying, bloodthirsty rage surging in his eyes. "Those rapid dogs are still coming after me!"
