The Almighty Dominance novel Chapter 54

Chapter 54

After the kidnapping incident, Jasmine had prepared with enough bodyguards.

They stood protectively around her, Alex, Lyra, and the other guests, guiding them to evacuate.

As the security team moved to follow their orders, Alex turned sharply to Lyra.

“Where is Sophia?”

“She’s outside with Chris. He… he hit her.”

Alex’s jaw clenched, and he halted.

“You two go first, don’t wait for me.”

He rushed back to the hall.

Jasmine and Lyra continued to evacuate with the others through the back door.

Outside, forty men from the Walker family were just getting out of their cars.

Chris stepped forward, offering a greeting. “Jerry Roland, my father, asked me to help you.”

Calvin Walker’s voice was icy. “Where’s Jasmine Kingston?”

“She’s inside with all the other rich kids,” Chris replied, shrugging.

Suddenly, the front door slammed shut, and the alarm echoed through Heaven Hall, signaling an evacuation.

Calvin’s eyes narrowed.

“Did you warn them we were coming?” he snapped at Chris

“No, I’ve been waiting here for you,” Chris insisted, stepping back nervously.

Calvin signaled to his forty men.

“The front door’s sealed. Looks like they’re trying to escape through the back. Cut them off. No one leaves. Ten of you get that front door open.”

At the back of the hall, Jasmine was urgently ushering guests out.

“This isn’t a drill anymore. Get to your cars and leave now!” she shouted, trying to maintain calm as more and more people scrambled for the exit.

Suddenly, Walker’s gunmen arrived, firing into the chaos.

Jasmine, just a few steps outside the hall, was pulled toward a car by her bodyguard. “Let’s run, Miss!” he urged.

But her gaze lingered on the back door.

In a split second, she made her decision and sprinted back inside, shocking her guards, who scrambled to form a defensive line.

“We’ll defend the hall!” the guard called out.

Meanwhile, the Walkers‘ team radioed Calvin. “We found Jasmine Kingston.”

“Did she run?” Calvin asked.

“Negative. She went back into the hall. We’ve got her trapped,” the leader reported.

“Some guests managed to escape. Should we chase them?”

“No need,” Calvin replied, a cold smile forming.

“The police are on the way. Jasmine is the priority. Secure her. We’ll breach from the front while you enter from the back.”

Inside the hall, Alex was searching for a way to help Sophia

To his shock, he saw people returning, and suddenly, Jasmine rushed toward him.

“What happened?” Alex asked.

“They cut off our escape route,” Jasmine replied.

“Why didn’t you just rush out?” he pressed.

“They’ll chase after me and endanger the guests. It’s better to keep the enemy focused here and let the others get away safely.” 1

Alex frowned, his tone sharp.

“If you keep thinking about others more than yourself and leave your life to fate, you’re going to get yourself

killed.”

Jasmine smiled sweetly, her gaze unwavering to Alex.

“I’m not leaving it to fate,” she said softly. “I’m leaving it to you. I trust you’ll protect me.”

Alex stared into her eyes.

“Help the others gather in one secure place. I’ll handle the attackers.”

“Yes, they’ll only slow you down,” Jasmine agreed, quickly making a call to instruct the remaining guests to hide in one spot.

Just then, Lyra rushed back in, breathless.

Alex looked at her, shocked. “Why did you return? You could’ve been the first out.”

Lyra shrugged. “I need to get on Jasmine Kingston’s good side.”

“What?” Alex blinked.

“Great things never came from comfort zones. I want to turn this whole mess into an opportunity to befriend her. Maybe she’ll invest in me,” Lyra said, eyes gleaming.

Alex rolled his eyes. “You’ll get yourself killed chasing money!”

“It is not death that a woman should fear, but she should fear never beginning to live.” Lyra smirked and rushed to help Jasmine coordinate the guests.

She wasn’t about to miss her chance to get doser to Jasmine.

Together, passing through this dangerous time, they were sure to get close!

They might even become sisters in arms!

Danger or not, this could be a life–changing moment for her.

Protecting Jasmine, even in this chaos, might just pay off if she didn’t get killed first.

Suddenly, an explosion rocked the hall, shattering the doors and sending debris flying.

The Walkers‘ men breached the front entrance.

From the back door, the guards began to retreat as the attackers unleashed RPGs and heavy weapons.

The guards‘ handguns were no match.

Jasmine rushed with the remaining guests, leading them toward the kitchen.

But just as they reached the kitchen doors, they flew open, and more of Calvin Walker’s men stormed in, armed and ready.

“Get back to the hall!” Jasmine yelled, pushing everyone back. They were now trapped in the middle.

From across the room, Calvin Walker entered, his expression cold and menacing.

“Stop running,” he warned, raising his weapon. “Or I’ll just shoot everyone

here.”
