Chapter 499
Chapter 499:
As Kylo extended his hand toward Amelia, Weldon shoved him back. Kylo staggered slightly, but he did not retaliate. Instead, he burst out laughing, as though the situation amused him deeply.
When his laughter died, his expression hardened, and he commanded, โBreak his legs p>
At once, the guards lunged at Weldon, brandishing bats.
Watching the scene, Dayna felt delighted, and she even lifted her phone, wanting to capture Ameliaโs humiliation later.
But at that moment, a grip seized her throat, and cold steel pressed into her flesh.

โStop now, or she dies p>
No one foresaw Nora freeing her wrists from the bindings.
Seizing the moment that Kylo and his bodyguards were distracted, Nora had swiftly captured Dayna as a hostage.
The bodyguards froze, uncertain, their eyes shifting to Kylo for direction.
As the sharp sting dug into her neck, Dayna shouted desperately, โKylo, save me p>
โYoung lady, taking a life carries grave consequences. I doubt you truly have it in you to p>
But before Kylo could conclude, Nora drove the blade into Daynaโs skin, and blood streamed from her neck.
Dayna wailed in horror, her eyes begging Kylo for mercy, but his following words drained the color from her face.
โShe is nothing but a toy to me. Do you actually think she grants you leverage? If you wish to end her, by all means, proceed p>
Once finished, Kylo cast a glance at the bodyguards. They resumed their attack on Weldon without hesitation.
Noraโs expression darkened at that.
Of course, she had no intention of actually killing Dayna. She shoved her aside and sprinted to Weldonโs aid.
Weldon pulled Amelia behind him for safety. Seeing Nora approach, he whispered to her, โTake Amelia and escape; Iโll fight them alone p>
โYou canโt possibly stop them by yourself. Besides, the exits are swarming with Kyloโs men; we canโt escape.โ Nora scanned their surroundings quickly and muttered, โIโve already checked the layout; the stairwell is free. When I give the cue, weโll bolt upstairs together p>
With her military training, she had mapped the warehouseโs structure the moment she entered.
