Chapter: 1284

Sean ordered Phillip to drive the Lamborghini out of the garage, urging him toward the location of Norah's attack.

The watchers tracking Norah remained vigilant. The moment she appeared, they set their assassination plan in motion.

As they sped along, Phillip listened to Sean's explanation of Norah's predicament. He attempted to calm his boss's nerves. “Try not to worry too much, Mr. Scott. With Sacredice's team on site, Miss Wilson should be well-protected."

An ominous feeling crept over Sean as he pressed a hand against his thundering heart.

"Step on it," he growled.

Without a word, Phillip accelerated. The satellite positioning system indicated that Sacredice's personnel had reached Pair Peak Mountain.

With Kason's people there, Norah's safety seemed assured.

Upon receiving the news, Kason's immediate response was to race to the scene. He hadn't anticipated that despite his thorough preparations, the attackers had managed to find a weak point.

"Be safe, Nora," Kason silently pleaded.

The bodyguards assigned to Nora were all highly skilled veterans, retired from military service. Kason had pulled strings to ensure each was armed with a firearm.

Yet even with such meticulous planning, the attackers struck with overwhelming force. Those who had failed to eliminate Nora a year ago were back, determined to finish the job.

Nora's amnesia complicated the investigation into her enemies. Kason also wanted to avoid stimulating her brain to promote memory recovery.

His dark eyes fixed on the endless stream of traffic ahead, Kason's heart raced with anxiety.

When Sean and Kason arrived, police had already cordoned off the area where several vehicles had clashed. Warning signs dotted the scene as officers processed evidence.

Phillip murmured to Sean, "The Sacredice team withdrew before the police arrived."

Sacredice members couldn't risk exposing themselves to domestic law enforcement. They had not officially entered the country, and discovery would trigger a nationwide manhunt.

Two of the four black cars had managed to flee, while five individuals were taken into police custody.

Kason scanned the area and questioned a bodyguard being led to a police car, "Where's Nora?"

"The captain took her away first," the bodyguard replied.

"And where is she now?" Sean approached, his expression icy. “Mr. Hayes, I demand an answer," he growled.

A police officer stepped towards the two men and explained, "There's been an accident further up Pair Peak Mountain. A large truck collided with another vehicle, sending it over the cliff. We're still working to identify the vehicles involved."

Kason's body tensed. "The car that went over the cliff... could it be Nora's?"

The officer shook his head. "We can't be certain yet, but police and military teams are already combing the area below. They should find something soon."

Sean's voice was steely. "Get a search party out there now."
