Chapter 1456
Something suddenly pulled Austin's wrist, not allowing him to leave.
Rhea stood there, unmoved. Her hand was outstretched, grabbing onto his wrist as she raised her chin
and said coldly, "Do you honestly think you can leave? Now that you know so much, how can I let you
go?"
"What’s wrong? Are you going to stop me?" Austin lowered her head and glanced at the hand holding
his wrist. It was fair and slender with manicured fingers. She had beautiful hands, but they were dirty.
He turned his wrist, and her fingers soon loosened, unable to bear the pain.
Austin knew Rhea was not a kickboxer like Lily and was just another woman. If he wanted to leave, she

The only way Rhea could stop him was with the help of other people. With that in mind, Austin's lips
curled upward. After all, he was familiar with this place, so it was not difficult to escape.
"Do you think you can stop me?" He smiled, and with a sudden burst of strength, he broke free from
her. Then he rubbed his wrist provocatively.’ Did you think you could hold me hostage? Or..."
His eyes darted to Thompson, standing beside Rhea, "Were you going to ask for his help?"
With that said, Austin held his head up high. He thought that he had won. With that, he turned to leave,
only to feel something hard and cold against his waist. It startled him as an ominous premonition rose
in his mind. He slowly looked down.
A black gun was pressed against his waist, and the hand that held the gun was the same pair of hands
he had complimented.
Rhea cocked her head to the side and slowly glanced at him with her
beautiful eyes. "I think I can!"
Austin's mind went blank. He stared at the gun and tried to see if it was real or fake. However, he could
not tell because he knew nothing about artillery. Although he was starting to panic, he still put on a
calm front." Heh. Do you think you can scare me with a fake gun?"
Rhea smirked when she heard that. "You can try me."
The gun's muzzle was pressed further into his waist, causing him to straighten up unconsciously.
'This is Kingsland. Where did you get this? Who are you guys? No, which organizations do you guys
belong to?!" At this point, everything Austin said was beginning to sound incoherent.

The colors began to drain from Thompson's face as he stood on the sidelines. Although he knew and
had seen a gun before, he did not expect Rhea to be carrying it around.
'If I didn't listen to her, would she have...'
Thompson did not even dare to continue his train of thought. He dared not make a sound as he stood
at the side, trembling. All he could do was watch in silence.
"Even if what you have in your hand is real, I don’t believe you have the guts to fire it!" Austin
desperately tried to keep calm but was frantically thinking of what to say next.
"If I’m dead, you won’t be able to escape the responsibility of killing me, can you? Even if you did, how
long can you run? What about your mother? Don’t you care about her anymore? You're all she talks
about."
