Chapter 391: I’m Here
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Although Mr. Guinn was injured, he had indeed won. He stood rooted to the ground even though he had spat out blood.
As for Lancelot and Guinevere, they were still lying motionless on the ground.
Before arriving, the couple had already known that Melanie Taylor would definitely have someone powerful and skilled by her side. However, they weren’t weak either. In fact, they had been tasked with protecting Master Peregrine in Peregrine Hall.
Logically speaking, that person shouldn’t be their match since there were two of them. Yet, reality had proved them wrong.
They had lost, and they were now at the mercy of the other.
“Mr. Guinn, should we kill them?” Just then, Melanie Taylor walked out with her brother.
“There’s no hurry to kill them now.”
They walked over and threw a glance at the couple. Melanie Taylor then stepped on them with her high heels. “How interesting. I didn’t expect Finn Taylor to send you two here. Doesn’t he know that I have people by my side? Did he send you guys here to get intel or to die?”
Lancelot bit back. “You’re wrong about our boss. We came of our own volition; he didn’t send us here.”
“Oh, that’s interesting. I was curious about why you guys are so willing to die for him.”
“I wouldn’t say that. We don’t know him that well, but he did help us. Hence, we have to repay the favor. Since you’re his enemy, we came to see if we could resolve the matter for him.”
“Well, it seems like you guys didn’t succeed. That’s fine; I’ll get him to do it personally then. Hand them their phones.”
To be honest, the couple didn’t want to make the call because they would be humiliated. It felt no different from having to call their parents to save them after a fight at kindergarten. However, they didn’t seem to have a choice.
While the couple didn’t have much to do with Finn Taylor, he was obligated to save them. They had already tried their best to help him, but it was to no avail.
However, the biggest problem the couple faced was that they weren’t from San Francisco, nor were they close to Finn Taylor. As such, they had no way of getting in touch with Finn Taylor or Andre Cavill.
“Do you know Gentle Breeze bar? Call their boss. We have no other way of getting in touch with them.”
Melanie Taylor wondered if the couple was playing with her. ‘Do they think they can trick us? But they don’t look like they’re joking around. Do you mean he’s being serious about it? But that’s interesting. Finn Taylor’s underlings don’t even have any way of contacting him after being beaten up and even need us to get in touch with their boss!’
“Do as they say and contact the boss of Gentle Breeze bar. Tell them that we have two of their men here. Get Finn Taylor to come here if he wants them alive.”
Andre Cavill’s heart skipped a beat when he received that phone call.
To be honest, he had already prepared himself for this situation. He hadn’t been entirely certain that Lancelot and Guinevere would be able to defeat Melanie Taylor’s men, and now, he had created trouble for himself. However, he didn’t regret his actions.
What was there to regret?
Life was full of choices. If one chose to back down every time they were faced with a choice, they would never be able to get anything done.
Left with no other choice, Andre Cavill could only contact his boss.
The latter was already fast asleep, and he was fuming when he learned of the situation. “Andre Cavill, go to hell! How many times have I told you that we aren’t capable of bringing South-East Asia’s Taylor family down just like that? It’s complicated even for me. Did you think you’d be able to turn the tides just like that? I’m going to save the two right now. I’m telling you that you’re going to pay if anything happens to them. If they die, you’ll have to die too.”
Finn Taylor cared the most about relationships. Even though the couple had only worked for him for several days, they were on equal ground with all his other subordinates.
If either of them got injured because of him, Andre Cavill would have to take responsibility and pay for his mistake.
The latter was calm when he heard that. After all, he had already mentally prepared himself for this.
Andre Cavill already knew about Master Peregrine’s personality and how the latter would resolve the matter, so those words didn’t come as a surprise.
Now, Andre Cavill could only hope that his boss would be able to resolve the problem. Perhaps the latter’s mood would improve with that, and his boss would then spare his life.
But if Finn Taylor failed or if anything happened to the couple, he was doomed.
Finn Taylor rushed down to the hotel and arrived at the top floor, only to see both Lancelot and Guinevere lying on the ground, their bodies battered.
“How interesting. I thought you wouldn’t come. I can’t believe you’re here.” Melanie Taylor looked down on her relative as though she was a high and mighty empress looking down on her subjects.
“Did you think I wouldn’t come?”
“Yes, I didn’t think so.”
“I’m sorry for disappointing you then. Who was it? I’ll have a duel with him too.. Let’s see if I’ll be able to save my men.”
