The Deadly Assassin Robin (Tristan Storm) novel Chapter 955

Chapter 955 Die Because She's Prettier Than Me
Lachlan was about to give the order to fire when he suddenly realized there was a dark, cold muzzle pressed against the top of his head.

"Tell your men to lower their guns!" Zayden's voice was sharp and commanding as he clicked the safety off his pistol.

Lachlan was shocked.

The tall, imposing bodyguard who had been following Anton had somehow moved so silently that Lachlan hadn't even noticed him standing right beside him.

Once the self-proclaimed king of mercenaries, Lachlan never expected someone like Zayden to move so quickly. The man was faster than he could imagine.

Despite the small number of people on the other side, they were all dangerous individuals.

Otherwise, they would never have dared to invade the estate so brazenly.

After a moment of stunned silence, Cuthbert yelled, "Lachlan, don't listen to him! Give the order to shoot, kill this arrogant b*stard and take out these Draconians on the spot!"

"Break his arm!" Robin barked at the blue-clad guards, pointing at Ellis.

With a sharp, sickening crack, a guard severed the remainder of Ellis's arm.

The entire place echoed with Ellis's agonizing screams.

"Dad, don't listen to that b*stard nonsense! If you don't tell them to lower their guns, I'm dead!" Ellis cried out in desperation.

Cuthbert interrupted Ellis's cries with another order. "Lachlan, as the police chief, you should be doing your duty—take these thugs down immediately!"

"D*mn you, Cuthbert! Do you want me dead?" Ellis seethed, wishing he could stab the old man.

"Dad, make them lower their guns! This old dog doesn't care about my life. I'm your son!" Ellis begged again, his voice breaking.

Lachlan's face turned cold as he snapped, "Lower your guns, step back!"

He pointed toward the high points around the estate, where dozens of armed officers had hidden, their guns pointed at Robin and the others.

"You're incredibly bold, young man! Do you think you can just do whatever you want?"

Lachlan's voice was heavy with authority. "Over 20 years ago, when I was a mercenary, you weren't even born yet!

"You think I only brought these few people? Outside the estate are the elite officers from my precinct!" Lachlan continued.

"Maintaining the peace of Qacalisle Island is my department's responsibility, not your playground!"

Robin raised his eyes and said, "So, Police Chief Lachlan, you're going to ignore the law and just use force? Fine, do as you wish! Keep going!"

Robin's words were met with a sickening crunch as one of the blue-clad guards stomped on Ellis's leg.

Ellis was covered in blood. He nearly passed out from the pain. "Dad, let him argue it out! If not, I'm dead for sure!"

Lachlan's eyes turned bloodshot, his veins bulging as he wished to shoot a bullet into Robin's head. He snarled, "Young man, if you hurt my son again, I'll go down with you all!

"With an order, I can have dozens of guns outside the estate to turn you into a pincushion!" Lachlan threatened.

"Alright! Go ahead and try!" Robin raised his hand, signaling the guards to continue.

Lachlan, finally caving in, gritted his teeth. "Fine, tell me—what evidence do they have to prove Sadie killed their daughter?

"And how can they prove that the jewelry wasn't a gift from Elodie to Sadie but was stolen by her and my son?"

Anton pointed to Kelsey and said, "Show the police chief the video evidence you've kept hidden all this time, or this will become a public scandal—people will say we're bullying these poor people!"

Fear paralyzed Kelsey, preventing her from speaking. "I-I ... "
