Chapter 274 A Blessing In Disguise

Bennett, his eyes clouded with confusion, echoed, “Sadness?”

He couldn’t grasp why Nathan saw sadness in his situation.

Nathan, speaking solemnly, pointed out, “The sniper’s real target was Finnegan. But why did he shoot you after hitting Finnegan? Can’t you see the reason?”

Bennett’s forehead creased as he began to understand the implication.

Stephen, catching on, exclaimed, “Grandpa, are you saying Reginald had a dual plan tonight? Mr. Sanchez as the front man and a sniper as backup?”

Nathan confirmed. “Exactly. If Mr. Sanchez had succeeded, the sniper would’ve eliminated him, erasing any trace back to Reginald. And if Mr. Sanchez failed, the sniper would finish off Finnegan and silence Mr.

Sanchez.”

He clenched his fists, “That’s why I immediately enforced martial law in the city, to capture the sniper and corner Reginald!”

Bennett, his expression turning icy, realized, “He wanted to kill me too?”

At that, he turned around, preparing to leave.

Stephen, concerned, inquired, “Mr. Sanchez?”

“Let him be. If he didn’t harm Finnegan, he’ll die for inaction!” Nathan instructed.

Stephen grasped Nathan’s meaning. In the event of Finnegan’s death, the fallout would be catastrophic.

Then, Doom Star followed suit, prompting Stephen’s surprise. “Doom Star, where are you going?”

Doom Star silently continued forward, ignoring the call.

Discerning his intent, Nathan remarked, “He’s a devoted follower of Finnegan. The Sable family… they’re likely finished.”

Stephen, apprehensive, asked, “Grandpa, shouldn’t we intervene?”

Alongside him, Doom Star, whose skills were on
