Zachary stammered, “W–Wanda… She twisted her ankle…”
Shein’s brows furrowed, and he scolded, “So you abandoned her?”
“I’ll go get her right away…”
Zachary didn’t offer further explanation. He turned and ran back toward the hill.
He had promised Wanda he would return for her after informing Shein.
“Woody, Jose, Camden, Luca, go with Zac and make sure he and Wanda get out safely through the back route,” Shein ordered, keeping his composure despite the situation.
The four bodyguards had been with him for years and were highly skilled. They were capable of handling multiple thugs at once.
“Boss, what’s happening?” Woody asked, confused by the sudden urgency.
“We’ve got rats…” Shein said tersely.
Woody frowned.
“That’s odd. Mac is outside, he should have alerted us if something was wrong.”
Jose speculated, “There’s no signal in the mountains. Mac probably couldn’t reach us.”
Just as he finished speaking, a large, burly man came running from the distance.
It was Mac.
“Boss, there’s a situation outside.”
Mac panted, his face pale.
“How many of them?” Woody immediately asked.
“About 40…” Mac’s voice trembled.
Despite being with Shein for so long, he had never encountered a situation like that day.
Shein’s face darkened.
“First, ensure Zac and Wanda escape through the back!”
He was frustrated with his bodyguards‘ lack of awareness. Despite their professional training, they had been surrounded without even realizing it. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
“And what about you, boss?” Woody asked hesitantly.
As the team leader, it was his job to ensure everyone’s safety. He felt responsible for their failure to notice the threat.

“Do I need to spell it out for you?” Shein snapped,
failing.
Woody swallowed hard.
“Let’s go, protect Mr. Zachary and Ms. Wanda.”
truggling to keep his temper in check but ultimately
The four bodyguards headed toward the back of the hill.
Noticing the commotion, Trey approached Shein.
“Shein, what’s going on?”
Shein replied in a low voice, “It looks like someone’s trying to kidnap me…‘
Trey was momentarily stunned, then laughed.
“Trying to kidnap you here in our town? They must be out of their minds!”

He turned and shouted to his son, who was smoking nearby, “Joshua! Someone’s trying to kidnap Shein.
Get the men together and grab whatever you can!”
“Damn it. Are they insane?”
Joshua threw his cigarette butt to the ground and sprinted toward the town.
Within five minutes, 70 to 80 middle–aged and elderly townsmen had gathered, holding various farming
tools.
Joshua, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, swaggered over to Shein and boasted, “Shein, pretty good response time, huh?”
Trey beamed with pride, his hands clasped behind his back.
“Shein, you have nothing to worry about. With us here, no one can harm you!”
Shein glanced at the crowd of townsfolk, his mouth twitching slightly.
Out of the 80 or so people, over 60 were senior citizens, and the remaining 20 were middle–aged men with limited physical abilities.
“Boss, cars are approaching.”
Mac squinted toward the end of the road.
Shein followed Mac’s gaze and saw several unmarked black cars speeding toward them.
The roads in Trodie Town had been paved since the ‘90s. It took only moments for the cars to arrive.
Seeing this, Joshua shouted, “Townspeople, if they dare step foot in our town, we’ll teach them a lesson!”
“Alright!” the residents roared in unison.
Joshua grabbed a kitchen knife from an elderly woman and charged ahead.

Trey smiled and stroked his beard.
“My son may not be well–educated, but he’s loyal. If your company needs a security guard, Shein, you
should take him.”
Joshua hadn’t run far before he saw the assailants getting out of their cars.
