Chapter 926
Keith hurriedly got out of the car, catching the masked man by surprise.
They had been expecting Tarquin, not Keith!
When Baby saw Keith, she was overwhelmed with emotion, crying even louder,
“Daddy, daddy! I want a hug, daddy, please hug me p>
Keith followed the sound of her voice and saw Baby tied up on the second floor. His heart sank, and he felt a shiver run through his entire body, “Don’t worry, Baby, Daddy’s here p>
Keith started to rush upstairs but was blocked by a group of thugs.
The man at the top of the stairs looked down at Keith with disappointment in his voice,
“You’re not going after Gideon for revenge p>
Keith clenched his fists, glaring back with a murderous look, silent.
The man sneered, “I really feel sorry for Kelsey and the entire Inkster family. For the descendant of an enemy, you’re even willing to give up on your vendetta! Keith, she has the Bradford family blood in her p>
Keith replied coldly,
“She’s just my daughter, Keith’s daughter, and that’s all that matters p>
The man scoffed, “Lying to yourself, is that fun p>
Keith ignored him, his gaze threatening, “I’m taking Baby with me! Now p>
The man then asked, “I didn’t tell you about this place. How did you find it? Who told you? Tarquin? Or did you… have someone on the inside p>
Keith repeated his demand,
“I’m here to take Baby away. Now p>
“You can take her, but not just yet. Wait until I’ve dealt with Tarquin. If you don’t want revenge, you can wait here. Once I’m done with Tarquin, I’ll hand Baby over to you p>
Keith didn’t engage further.
He looked up at Baby, his eyes filled with tenderness,
“Baby, Daddy’s right here. Don’t be scared. You’re not alone; Daddy’s here. Now, do as Daddy says, close your eyes, and count silently. Only open them when Daddy says so p>
Through her tears, Baby nodded, her sobs breaking,
“Okay p>
She obeyed Keith immediately, closing her eyes tight.
The next moment, Keith shot the man a fierce glare.
He gritted his teeth and moved forward, as the sound of intense fighting broke out.
The man watched from above, his voice chilling,
“I didn’t want to hurt you. My quarrel isn’t with you. Are you really seeking death p>
Keith’s gaze turned fierce, and his every move was lethal.
Without hesitation, he drew his gun and aimed at the man, pulling the trigger, “Bang p>
Not wanting to hurt him? That’s a lie if Keith ever heard one.
After more than two decades of dealing with each other, Keith might not know his true identity, but he had a good idea of his character.
He was ruthlessly cunning, a master of psychological warfare.
His words were always a mix of truth and lies, making it impossible to discern what was real.
But one thing was clear: you could only believe a tenth of what he said.
Another thing was certain: Keith was just a pawn to him.
Useful for now, disposable later.
Once he was done with Tarquin, Keith knew he’d be next on the list.
From the moment Keith learned the truth about that night in Hill Village, he knew a target was on his back.
No matter who had posed as Kendrick, he was involved.
His sister’s tragic death, he was part of it.
His own downfall, he couldn’t escape blame.
Keith knew, deep down, it would come down to him or the man. A fight to the death.
