Alpha's Regret: The Seventh Time was Forever

Chapter 180 – I will trade my life for hers without thinking twice

Voren and Corvine followed the plan exactly the way they had mapped it out earlier, because the moment Corvine dropped Seraphine off at Santiago’s estate, he immediately turned the vehicle around and drove back to retrieve Voren.

Just as they had expected, none of the guards bothered performing a second inspection when the car returned through the gate, mostly because they had already searched it once and saw no reason to waste their time doing it again.

Even if they had gone through the trouble of checking the vehicle a second time, they still would not have found Voren or his FBI contact because both men had hidden themselves so carefully that nobody would have suspected they were there.

After Corvine was directed toward Santiago’s garage, which was packed with rows of luxury vehicles, he remained seated in silence while forcing himself to stay calm even though the pressure sitting on his chest was becoming harder to ignore with every passing second.

The entire garage smelled like polished leather, gasoline, and cold metal, while the expensive cars lined up around him made the place feel less like a parking area and more like some billionaire’s private showroom.

All he could do was sit there and wait for the signal from Seraphine.

Thankfully, it did not take long before his phone vibrated in his pocket, causing his pulse to jump instantly because the message he had been waiting for had finally arrived.

The network was about to be destroyed.

Corvine wasted no time forwarding the message to Voren before quickly pulling out his phone and calling Leon.

The call connected almost immediately.

"Sera said she told you to arrange ambulances," Corvine said without wasting time.

Leon let out a frustrated sound from the other end of the line. "It’s ridiculous because I still don’t understand what she needs twenty ambulances for."
