Twins in Her Womb: Sir President, Please be Gentle novel Chapter 685

Madame Rose was not intimidated by Luke because she thought that she had the advantage in numbers.

She did not expect that Luke would be brazen enough to take her as a hostage.

"Let go of him, Matthew! Otherwise, none of you will survive!" Kassy pointed her gun at Luke's head.

Her hand was shaking. Evidently, she was conflicted.

She knew of Madame Rose's cruelty better than anyone else. Luke and his followers might be formidable, but they were already seriously injured, and they were not going to be able to successfully escape the heavily-defended island.

"If I'm not going to survive this, I don't mind taking all of you down with me!" Luke said coldly.

"Heh, you ignorant brat, you won't leave here alive even if you kill me," Madame Rose said brazenly.

"If that's the case, all of you can die!" Luke smirked coldly and tightened his vice-like grip on Madame Rose's neck. Her eyes were beginning to glaze over.

Madame Rose coughed, and her face turned red.

Even so, she yelled at Kassy, "Kassy, kill… kill that b*stard… quick…"

Luke bashed Madame Rose's face in with the butt of his pistol.

Several teeth fell out of Madame Rose's mouth. Blood flowed freely, and she gasped in pain.

That angered her even more. "Quick, Kassy, kill… kill him…"

Luke placed Madame Rose in front of his body. He was using her as his meat shield.

If the mercenaries opened fire, Madame Rose would be riddled with bullet holes.

Kassy aimed her gun at Luke and hesitated.

She hated Luke for his betrayal, but at the same time, she did not want to hurt him.

The mercenaries dared not act rashly and waited for Kassy's command.

Luke aimed his pistol firmly on Madame Rose's temple and commanded her, "Tell your people to back off, Madame Rose!"

He knew Madame Rose's personality very well. She might have caused the deaths of so many people on the island, but she was afraid of dying.

Madame Rose gritted her teeth, waved at her mercenaries, and wheezed through her missing front teeth, "Efferyone, shtand back… and let them go…"

The mercenaries who surrounded them took several steps back and opened up a path for them.

Luke brought Madame Rose to the middle of the hangar.

A helicopter was parked there.

"Get on," Luke signaled to Gale and the others.

The three people got into the helicopter in a single file.

Gale went into the cockpit while Rain and Thunder guarded the entrance with assault rifles, aiming them at the mercenaries.

"Get on the helicopter, Boss!" Thunder shouted at Luke.

Every second they stayed on the island decreased their chances of success. No one knew what would happen in the next moment.

Moreover, they had a traitor among them.

Luke tugged Madame Rose and took step by step up the helicopter.

Bianca had not rested well for the past few days because she was gathering information on Wayne Blatt. The results were disappointing. The man was too mysterious, and she could not find anything on him. That made her very frustrated.

Bianca got up very early and saw her mother working busily in the kitchen while her father washed the vegetables at the sink. They were a loving couple.

She envied her parents. They had been through so much over the years, but they were loving toward each other like newlyweds.

The stern and influential politician in public was so pliant and docile in front of his wife, willing to listen to whatever she said.

They had been married for more than twenty years, but Queenie looked young. When Bianca and Queenie stood together, they were often mistaken for sisters.

Bianca knew that her mother enjoyed a blissful marriage. Jack Norman pampered her and never let her down.

She envied that marriage, and she wished that her marriage would be like that too.

Unfortunately for her, she did not even know the whereabouts of her husband.

In the kitchen.

Jack tasted the soup and frowned. "I think it's a little too light. I wonder if our daughter would like it."

Queenie tasted the soup too. Then, she smiled at her husband. "It's your first time making soup for our daughter. No matter the taste, Bianca would appreciate what you've done for her. She's a sensible and empathic girl."

Jack grinned sheepishly. "Mm. I never knew that it's so difficult to cook. You should teach me how to cook sometime so that I can cook for you after I retire."

Queenie rolled her eyes at Jack. "Don't worry about it. I'd rather not get poisoned!"

Bianca felt envious when she saw that exchange. Perhaps that was what true love looked like.

She was about to step into the kitchen when she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her chest that made her double over…
