Coolest Girl in Town

Before he could even react, the Hellens had already launched another round of attack.

"This won't do, Mr. Morgan. They are heavily armed. If we fight back and use up our ammunition, we'll only end up as targets!"

Owen's subordinate hinted that they should retreat.

So, as indignant as Owen felt, he could only make the painful decision of retreating. "Fix the bombs! Blow whatever we can't take with us. Evacuate!"

"That's why he remains single till this day," remarked Alexander.

Elise grinned sheepishly at that. "As his boss, you should be held responsible for this."

Alexander was looking for an excuse, Raymond was gushing at the top of his lungs. "And guess what? A dozen or so people from different fields were imprisoned in Owen's outpost. After we rescued them—well, to stay alive and to thank us for saving them—they decided to join
