“Good. I suppose we’ll also get to see how efficient Nathaniel is.”
She looked at the empty bottle of wine, her beautiful eyes glinting with anticipation.
Meanwhile, Kyson’s car was cruising down the road. It was late, and only a few other cars could be seen at this hour.
Pierre adjusted the air conditioner to the most comfortable temperature. The two guards were drunk and fell asleep shorty.
Only Kyson was sober, if one could call him that.
Pierre was keeping his eyes on the road when he suddenly felt the barrel of a gun pressed against the back of his head.
Then came Kyson’s voice.
“This is not the way to my house. Where are you taking us?”
He wasn’t quiet at all, and his bodyguards stirred at the sound of his voice. It only took them a few seconds to be fully awake.
They looked out the window and realized that Pierre had taken them out into the suburbs.
Tension filled the car.
“Oh, did I go the wrong way?” Pierre chuckled.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Shaw.
I didn’t dare to wake you up to ask for directions. I thought I was taking a shortcut.”
“Turn the car around,” Kyson ordered in a cold voice.
“Huh? Oh. Of course!”

The car was already going very fast, and instead of easing into a brake, Pierre slammed his foot on the accelerator. Then, without warning, he swerved the steering wheel sharply to the right. The car tipped on its side and almost toppled over.
Pierre was the only one who had fastened his seat belt. Kyson and his men ended up getting shaken into the car, slamming against the windows and the rear windshield.
In the commotion, Kyson dropped the gun he had been pointing at Pierre’s head.
The car ground to a screeching halt. Taking advantage of the confusion, Pierre hurried out of the car and fled.
Meanwhile, the three remaining people were still struggling to get their bearings.
Naturally, Kyson was the first to get back to his senses. He cast a vicious look in the direction which Pierre had escaped, pointed his gun, and pulled the trigger.
Bang!
The shot rang out in the otherwise quiet suburbs.
