The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1657

From afar, two car silhouettes were visible. Neither slowed down until they were about a hundred meters apart. Both cars almost seemed to take flight before slamming their brakes. Their rear ends lifted slightly before coming to a steady stop.

"Holy smoke! Are they racing for their lives?!"

The driver to the side had already hit the brakes a good ten seconds prior. Despite this, Nate's body was flung forward harshly, only to be jerked back by the seatbelt.

Nate was known to keep his cool no matter the situation. But even he was taken aback by the sight, his face turning pale.

While he and the driver were still in shock, the door of the SUV from the other side swung open. A figure clad in black jumped lightly from the driver's seat. He then walked over to Chloe's car and bent down to knock on her window.

The window rolled down to reveal Chloe's cool face.d2

Stanley leaned on her window, observing her for a moment. "Are we going together?"

"Don't waste time."

Chloe showed no intention of getting out of the car. Stanley raised an eyebrow but didn't seem surprised. He turned to look at the approaching vehicles, a frown creasing his forehead. "So, we're going to storm the place?"

Chloe pursed her lips, her brow furrowing. She pressed the clutch, shifted gears, and the car's engine started to thrum.

Stanley straightened up quickly. "Alright, alright, I get it!"

Chloe didn't respond.

Stanley, feeling slighted, returned to his car, and sped away. Chloe's car followed suit immediately.

"Follow them!" At Nate's command, the fleet of cars quickly followed.

The desolate suburban winter night was filled with the thrumming of the cars and the sound of their bodies cutting through the chilly wind.

At three in the morning, Stanley and Chloe arrived at the last checkpoint on the border.

"I'll lead the charge, and you follow," Stanley told Chloe, who saw that the people in the car had their handguns ready, and their expressions were serious and ready for action.

She pressed her lips together and spoke softly. "Give me one."

Stanley turned to look at her before pulling a silver handgun from his jacket and tossing it to her. He then tossed her a box of ammunition. "It's fully loaded!"

Chloe pushed back the half-open box of ammunition, and put the spare box in her down jacket's pocket.

"Is that enough?" Stanley, with his carefree demeanor, couldn't help but ask one last time. The worry in his eyes was evident.

Chloe put the gun in her other pocket, and her expression was calm. "It's enough."

One was enough. This was enough to kill Wendy a hundred times over.

As soon as the cars stopped, Nate contacted Damon. "Sir, we've reached the checkpoint. From the looks of it, Mr. Stanley plans to force his way through."

Damon's icy voice echoed throughout the car. "What about Chloe?"

Nate stepped out of the car, making his way towards Chloe and Stanley. "She is currently discussing the plan with Mr. Stanley... Mr. Stanley has given her a gun, and I think they plan on forcing their way in..."
