Chapter 858
He stared at Serena.
His scalp went completely numb.
Damn it!
They really shouldn’t have taken a blind contract for these society galas!
One wrong move and it was a death sentence!
This Doyle family had nearly sent his entire squad to the slaughterhouse!
“Do it!” Bianca had been practically vibrating with triumph, waiting to see Serena humiliated. When the guard suddenly froze, she screamed in frustration, “What are you idiots waiting for? Pin her down and strip that mask off her p>
That shriek nearly scared the soul right out of the captain’s body.
Reacting with lightning speed, he spun around and flashed a hand signal to his men, who were just about to swarm Serena.
It was a tactical mercenary sign-
[Lethal threat. Total retreat. Disobey and die p>
The squad was stunned.
They didn’t fully grasp what their captain meant by a “lethal threat p>
But out of absolute obedience to their leader, the other nine men slammed on the brakes.
The captain immediately turned back to Serena, snapping into a perfect, deeply respectful posture, keeping his head lowered submissively. “My apologies, ma’am. We were out of line p>
Seeing their captain bow.
The rest of the squad exchanged bewildered glances before uniformly lowering their heads in a respectful bow.
The triumphant sneer froze on Bianca’s face.
The other guests were completely dumbfounded.
What the hell was going on?
These security guards were notorious, bloodthirsty mercenaries from overseas.
Why were they acting so submissive toward a woman in a white angel mask?
“What are you doing? Are you insane? Do you not understand English? I told you to rip her mask off!” Bianca ground her teeth in fury.
“Ms. Doyle.” The captain turned his head, shooting Bianca a vicious, predatory glare. “This VIP is untouchable p>
The final word was laced with a heavy threat.
Bianca grew even more enraged.
“What did you just say?
Untouchable? She’s just some
low-class tramp! Plus, my family paief for your services. You dare defy me p>
The captain stole a quick, terrified glance at Serena and swallowed hard. “No
amount of money is worth anything if we don’t have our lives to spend it p>
If they laid a finger on this woman.
Forget the paycheck.
They would end up completely annihilated, just like that mercenary squad in the United Realmon States.
What good was money then?
The captain instantly waved his hand. “Move out p>
The ten massive, heavily armed men had arrived quickly, but they sprinted away even faster.
They immediately sent word to the
rest of their syndicate brothers: under no circumstances was
anyone to provoke the woman in the
white evening gown and the white
angel mask.
Effectively, no matter how much Bianca screamed for security to handle Serena, not
a single guard in the venue would respond.
Bianca looked like she was about to pass out from anger.
What a bunch of useless trash!
What was so terrifying about that woman?
Mercenaries? More like cowards!
Bianca realized that not only had she been publicly humiliated by some random woman, but her own hired security had flat-out embarrassed her.
She was shaking with rage.
The debutantes beside her watched the guards practically flee for their lives. A creeping sense of dread settled in their stomachs, and they, hurriedly grabbed Bianca’s arm.
“Bianca, something isn’t right. That security captain looked terrified of her… Do you think she’s actually someone incredibly powerful p>
“Yeah, maybe we should just drop it. This woman might be bad news p>
“That captain is an overseas mercenary. He’s seen it all. We really should let this
go p>
“It’s an auction, after all. Making a huge scene won’t look good. Bianca, let’s just leave it be p>
One by one, they all tried to talk Bianca down.
But Bianca was far beyond the point of listening.
