Chapter 22: It’s Not Time
"How about this?" Raine bluntly offered with an evil smirk. "I will let you take the girl if you take me with you as well."
"Boss?!" everyone from the other line burst. They knew their Boss was crazy, but her madness seemed to have no limits!
Raine knew that she was taking a significant risk in this bargain, but she wanted to trust her intuition about him. His voice was very different from Tyrone’s. However, they already lived with all sorts of high-level technologies around them that was more than capable of faking his voice. All she needed to do was remove that mask on his face.
"Tick tock tick tock... The clock is ticking, darling. Should I just go ahead and shoot this poor little girl in here?" Raine dared. "The police are coming, and I’m pretty sure that all of my men have already sealed this area shut. So I suppose escaping will be difficult for you?"
She wanted to know if he would let the little girl die or not.
"You won’t kill her and I know that for sure," the lollipop boy said. Raine couldn’t see the smile on his face because of his mask, but she could read his next move by staring intensely into his eyes. "You can take care of her for now. I’m sure you will keep her safe..."
"Shit! Block the glass wall on the east!" Raine exclaimed as she witnessed him break the glass wall in one swift motion and jump out of it.
Raine was about to follow him, but the little girl kept on desperately struggling over in the corner.
"Sedate her, now!" Raine shouted to Lyne, who was now behind her. Since she always brought a gun that could kill with her, she couldn’t aim past the little girl.
