The three of them then felt a pain in the back of their necks. Their eyes rolled to the back of their head as they fell to the floor.
Sonny stared at the three unconscious bodyguards while Lonnie put the anesthesia gun back in his bag.
“Sonny, we can’t leave them here.
Let’s hide them first.”
Sonny put his hand to his lips and made the secret birdcall.
A minute later, there was still no movement inside the villa, and Nathaniel hadn’t opened the door.
Realizing something was wrong, Sonny said, “Let’s go upstairs and check on Boss first.”
The security door was locked. Sonny wanted to kick the door in but was afraid that it would be impossible to explain when Lucinda returned. Instead, he and Lonnie climbed a drainpipe to the second floor.
They opened the door of Nathaniel’s room. He was lying on a lounge chair near the window. The dark red puddle on the floor caught Sonny’s eye.
“Boss!”
The two men rushed toward Nathaniel. Their faces grew pale.
Sonny took a syringe from a small cooler box and injected the content into Nathaniel’s neck.
Lonnie looked at Nathaniel’s blood-soaked hand. His eyes filled with tears.
Two minutes after the injection, there was still no response from Nathaniel.
His body was cold, and there was no sign of Life.
Sonny put his fingers to Nathaniel’s throat, searching for a pulse, but his heart had stopped.
“Wake up! Wake up! Come on, boss. Don’t sleep!”

Roaring in grief, Sonny patted Nathaniel’s pale face.
Tears streamed down his cheeks, as he knelt beside Nathaniel, sobbing.
They were too late.
Lonnie felt his heart breaking. With no regard for his image or anything else, he sank to the floor and wailed.
Sonny became more and more desperate.
“Boss, please! Please don’t sleep! Wake up! If you fall asleep, you will never wake up again!”
Nathaniel’s face was serene. His eyes were closed, and his lashes did not move.
