“Because we were just never meant to be.”

They came from different worlds, and values were one of the many aspects that they didn’t have in common.

Alex swiftly moved in front of Nicholas, but as soon as that happened, Sophie fired her gun between his brows.

The man collapsed to the ground, his eyes wide in disbelief.

“Go, Boss.”

If it meant letting Nicholas get away safely, he had no qualms about dying.

“Please, Boss… Go…”

He couldn’t return to Anglandur now. Furthermore, Tristan and his men had already barged in, so Nicholas could only leave with his remaining subordinates.

Tristan arrived upstairs to see the gun in Sophie’s hand along with a now lifeless Alex.

Sean and the others knew how skilled Alex was to be able to serve Nicholas all this while.

Yet, the man now lay motionless on the ground, his eyes wide open.

Completely uninterested in Alex’s death, Tristan dashed over to Sophie and got down on one knee.
