Chapter 254 - Status Unknown

Keira watched as Violet broke a few devices from the man but the man pushed her so hard that she almost hit the wall but a bulky man caught her before she got hurt. She could see the pain in her eyes but the man was uncontrollable as he approached them. He took out a gun from his pocket but then someone else grabbed it and pointed it at his head that made him freeze.

"Charles," The man seemed to grin behind the panther mask. "Charles, Charles.." He sang and Keira knew who it was. The two fought as the man in a panther mask threw the gun away and they fought.

That time, Alessandro grabbed her away from the scene. She saw how her brother fought the man. She could see that Harvey couldn't compare to that Killing machine.

"Harvey," Keira whispered.

"No.." He shook his head and took her to the safest place. One of the security guards would confirm if it was safe to go. They stayed together with other employees who were hiding and Keira looked at her husband. He was anxious but from his face, he was only focusing on protecting her.

Back in the foyer of the hotel, they watched as Panther and the Killing Machine were beating each other but aside from that, they knew that it'll be hard to fight the Killing Machine. So, the leech should come soon. Harvey then locked the Killing machine's arms and neck as the leech, named Chameleon jumped and stabbed a needle as the blood was sucked right away.

The Killing Machine smacked Leon's head. He tried to grab the blood but Violet was fast enough. Panther released the killing machine and they surrounded him. Violet, who was wearing a violet outfit, tucked the precious blood between her breasts and stared at her husband who wasn't in his right mind. The man stared back at her but then, he collapsed but Bull rushed to hold his head.

"What's happening?" She asked.

"I also injected a strong tranquilizer. Sorry," Leon shrugged.

Bull carefully put the head on the floor as Victor opened his eyes and tried to grab him. He's fighting the tranquilizer as he tries to reach Bull. Violet grabbed Bull away from Victor who was struggling.

"Violet," Victor grumbled, which made all of them freeze. "Run. Run now.."

They all looked at each other. Harvey quickly shouted to evacuate. Victor collapsed at that time and Violet was dragging his body out. She was holding her tears but she couldn't.

"Go," Victor was trying to get back into his senses as he pushed her.

That's when Bull grabbed her out of the hotel while Leon and Harvey rushed inside to evacuate everyone. At the same time, the hotel staff also had everyone evacuated.

Ian watched as they started planting bombs inside the hotel. He was fast waiting for her niece inside the car. He honked his car when one of the security leads Keira and Alessandro. He opened the car and Keira hesitated.

"Keira, get in now!" Ian shouted.

Keira entered as Alessandro followed. The security signed them to leave and he drove the car directly to Violet and Bull. Bull opened the car and pushed Violet inside. That's when Alessandro grabbed her when she tried to get back there.

"Victor," Violet cried.

There's no hesitation from Ian's eyes when he accelerated the car and left the area. That's when Violet watched as her husband was taken by the Charles Empire away. They were planning to bomb the hotel.

"Violet," Keira reached her and hugged her. "He'll be safe. I promise." She said to comfort her.

Although she was shaking she still wanted to comfort Violet since she's not in a good condition. Keira never expected that something like this would happen. She was scared for her safety, for her husband, and her brothers. It takes only a few moments when Violet composed herself. She removed her mask and sniffled. Then, she checked her wristwatches.

"Bombs have been disabled by the Rossie Empire," Violet told Ian.

"Good. Now, I'm taking you to a safer place. You can't go back to the mansion." Ian announced. He drove away, far away until they stopped at an abandoned place and used different cars. He drove again back to De Alegre's mansion.

The gate opened for them and Alex De Alegre was in his pajamas pacing back and forth with a phone in his hand. He rushed to their car just before Ian parked in front. Alessandro quickly opened the door and came out and he held Keira's hand as she gently hopped out of the car, still shaking. Alex hugged his son and then Keira.

"Glad that you are all safe." He said. "Your security hasn't come back yet. But both of you are safe." He squeezed Alessandro into his arms. "Let's go inside." He said and waved at Violet and Ian.

Instead of going back, Ian gently pushed Violet.

"Take her in. I need to borrow one of your bikes, Sandro."

"I have to go with you," Violet exclaimed.

"No." Ian scolded her. "Because of your damn emotions, you nearly got killed."

"I didn't. He won't kill me."

"Violet! He became uncontrollable." Ian raised his voice. He calmed down and shook his head. "Please take her in. She can't come out unless I come back to pick her up."

Violet felt like she'd been left out. That's when Keira held Violet's hand and took her inside while Alessandro took Ian to the garage. Alex quickly entertained them and served them cold water.

"How about food?" Alex asked. "Are guys hungry?"

Keira shook her head while Violet was staring at the glass of water.

"Alright," He exhaled slowly.

Connor finally changed his position while holding his sniper. He shouldn't have agreed with Violet in the very first place. Violet nearly got killed and their plan almost got messed up. He put his sniper back to the case in a minute and then, he carried it and went downstairs. They meet up back at the Rossie Facility. He badly wanted to go back to his house to check on his fiancee. He was also worried about her although he knew that she could take care of herself.

"That's a hell of unexpected shit." Ian put his helmet over the table as everyone gathered. The only one that wasn't with them is Violet. Harvey had a few bruises that also go for Leon.

"What's up?" Ian asked them. "Should I escort Violet back to the mansion?"

Bull nodded his head.

"Uhm, I'll escort her back there." Bull removed a few devices to turn it over leaving the smartwatch. He took the helmet from Ian and the keys.

Connor slouched on the couch as he pulled out his phone to call Johanna. Shortly, she answered.

"Hey, babe. How are you?"

"I'm fine. I just woke up."

"Sorry, that I called you. Are you alright?"

"Yes." Johanna yawned. "So, how's the meeting?"

"Everything is great. I'll be there in an hour. Do you want me to take out some food or do you want to eat something?"

"Donuts. I want donuts."

"Sure, what type?"

"The one with fillings. I like strawberry, Bavarian, and Matcha if possible."

"Alright," Connor sighed. "I miss you."

"Then, come home."

"One more hour for the meeting. I promise that I'll be there."

Ian was laughing hard when Viper was mocking Connor also using his phone and Leon acted like Johanna but he overdo it. Harvey only sighed, shook his head, and pressed ice on his face. The Rossie Head Butler came with their snacks and drinks.

"Everything is covered up in that hotel, Master H." The Head Butler said as Harvey took the cocktail from the tray.

"Thank you. That was near." He grumbled.

"Unfortunately, we can't take Victor or else, they would self-destruct him," Ian said as he took the blue cocktail.

The Head Butler handed over the tablet to Harvey.

"Here's the microbots that we had scanned from his body." The Head Butler showed Harvey about Victor's physique. "They can trigger self-destruction anytime."

"I see." Harvey frowned. "This is harder than I thought. It will be harder for us to take him back."

"It's also a good thing that Violet isn't here."

"I'll speak to you later babe," Connor mumbled and hung up. "We need to let Violet know about the Charles Empire's plan. They found out that we need to take back Victor."

"How are we going to tell Violet that her husband can die anytime soon?" Leon exclaimed. "This is frustrating." Leon dropped his body on the long sofa.

Viper was quiet but he was also worried. Victor was also their brother and Violet's husband. They already vow that they will save him no matter what. But if they touched his armor took him from the facility, he would be as good as dead for everyone. It would make Violet lose herself.

"Master H, Lady Vi already told us about these microbots." The Head Butler said. "That is why she asked for more materials."

They all stopped and looked at the head of Butler who seemed to be telling the truth.

"She~She knew?"

"Yes, that is why she also suggested scanning microbots while they are fighting." The Head Butler confirmed.

They were all puzzled, and they never expected that Violet would do such things.

"Oh, fuck." Connor grumbled.
