Chapter 160
98.6 % Chapter 160 Chapter 160 Asher's expression turned serious as he replied , " I've called in two teams of mercenaries from abroad . They've received even more rigorous training than those at Malfoy's military base . With them protecting you and your family , Malfoy's people won't be able to harm you again . " Thalia was taken aback . " Mercenaries ? " " Yes . " Asher's thin lips pressed together , his eyes flashing with remorse . " I failed before .
I didn't protect you and your family properly . Lia , I promise you , something like this won't happen again . I'll keep you safe . " Thalia lowered her gaze , her feelings complicated . She had intended to respond with sarcasm , but then she remembered how Asher had risked his life to meet Tom Malfoy alone to save her . The biting words reached the tip of her tongue , but Thalia couldn't bring herself to say them . Seeing Thalia's silence , Asher assumed she didn't believe him .
His throat tightened as bitterness washed over him . They soon arrived at Asher's compound . Lucy had been brought back by Asher's subordinate , Leo Kim . Leo was the commander - in - chief of Asher's American base . Someone of his rank rarely participated directly in operations ; routine missions were typically assigned to his subordinates . Only extremely important and confidential missions warranted his personal involvement .
In his fifteen years of service to Asher , Leo had never been asked to rescue a young girl . When he received the assignment , he was gobsmacked . He double - checked to make sure , and even after Asher confirmed it , he still found it hard to believe . Tom Malfoy was powerful in Russia , but firearms weren't prohibited there , so their people wouldn't be restricted . Rescuing someone shouldn't be difficult .
He could have assigned a reliable deputy as commander and sent a few mercenaries over to handle it . The situation . hardly required the personal involvement of the commander - in - chief . Despite his confusion , Leo had always obeyed Asher's orders unconditionally . Since Asher had issued this command , he had no choice but to comply . Though Malfoy's men weren't as formidable as those in America , their strength was still considerable .

However , they had brought a top - tier medical team with them , and the wounded received professional treatment on the helicopter , saving their lives . The helicopter took nearly seven hours to fly from Poland to the compound in London . When they first rescued Lucy , she was unconscious .
The accompanying doctor performed a basic examination and found that she had merely fainted from hunger . The doctor administered glucose , and shortly after boarding the helicopter , she regained consciousness . The young girl was terrified . She huddled in her seat , trembling , hugging her knees , her small face deathly pale , and her doe - like eyes filled with fear . A ruggedly handsome young man under Leo's command gave Lucy an odd look before turning to Leo .
" Boss , what's so special about this girl ? Why did you have to rescue her personally ? " Leo shook his head . " I don't know . The young master didn't say . " The young man's name was Clinton Yates . He was one of the mercenaries involved in Lucy's rescue. Despite being only seventeen , Clinton had already undergone nine years of professional training . He had never failed a mission , and his skills surpassed many veteran soldiers . He was among the top three mercenaries under Leo's command .
Clinton's arm had been hit by a bullet , the white bandage soaked crimson with blood . Yet he showed no resentment , merely smiling and saying , " Then she must be extremely important to the young master . " When the young man smiled , his rugged features softened somewhat . Lucy looked up at him , the fear in her eyes diminishing . She recognized this brother . He was the one who had rescued her from that dark dungeon , and his arm had been injured while saving her .noveldrama
Seeing Lucy so timid and remembering what she had been through , Clinton felt sympathy for her . He pulled a fru candy from his pocket and offered it to her . " Little one , fancy a sweet ? " Clinton had a habit - whenever he was nervous or needed intense concentration , he had to eat candy . Eating candy helped him stay calm and collected . It was a habit he had developed as a child .

Tears streamed down Thalia's face as the choked out " Lucy " Sitting at the dining table , Lucy heard her sister's voice and turned to look . Her eyes instantly filled with tears . " Sister " Thalla hurried to Lucy's side and embraced her , crying " Thank goodness , you're finally back . It's so good , so good … Thank God you're safe … " Lucy leaned into Thalia's embrace , her quiet sobs gradually turning into heart wrenching cries .
Aster stood to the side watching for a moment , then gave Leo a significant look before turning and walking out Leo led Clinton and the others out behind Asher , leaving the sisters alone . ( 0 )
