After divorce, Ex-wife Revealed Identities

Chapter 760

Mrs. Maskelyne was soaked from head to toe, standing in front of the water feature, glaring at Sylvia.

Water droplets trickled down her clothes and splashed onto the ground beneath her.

She was drenched and looked disheveled. Her teeth clenched, chest heaving, and she gripped her

hands tightly, seething with anger. "Sylvia, you're asking for trouble!"

Sylvia sneered, "Let me take a look at what's inside, shall we?"

"You dare to open it!" Mrs. Maskelyne lunged at Sylvia, with her wet body sending water droplets

scattering onto the bystanders.

The onlookers quickly backed away.

Sylvia raised an eyebrow and raised her hand to meet Mrs. Maskelyne's punch. She effortlessly

countered Mrs. Maskelyne's attack with a palm, sending her flying once more!

A loud thud!

Mrs. Maskelyne's body followed a similar parabolic trajectory, landing heavily in the water feature

again. This time, a larger splash erupted.

After struggling for a moment, Mrs. Maskelyne crawled out of the water, knelt on the ground, and

coughed vigorously from having ingested some water. Standing by the water feature was a tall, elegant

woman with an icy expression, looking down at her.

Sylvia smiled like a demon from hell. "I remember telling you not to screw with my man."

She raised her foot and stepped on Mrs. Maskelyne's hand. "If you insist on behaving like a pest, don't

blame me for not respecting the elderly."

Anything Franklin couldn't do, she was more than willing to do for him.

"Do you know who I am?" Mrs. Maskelyne, her hand crushed under Sylvia's heel, stared at Sylvia with

a pale face, alarmed by Sylvia's unexpected improvement in martial skills since their last encounter.

She had become even more formidable!

Ouch!

A sharp pain shot through her hand.

She tried to break free, but Sylvia's grip was unyielding.

Just then, dozens of men in black rushed in from the entrance, each one looking menacing and hostile

as they lunged toward Sylvia.

Taking advantage of the chaos, Tyrell went over to Mrs. Maskelyne and pulled her to her feet. She

trembled and stood huddled in Tyrell's embrace, glaring hatefully at Sylvia as she grappled with the

men in black.

At that moment, Franklin joined the fray as well. Blake cracked his knuckles, making a popping sound.

"I haven't stretched my muscles in a while."

With those words, he leaped into action, kicking away the two men in black who were closest to Sylvia.

Arian watched in fascination. This guy had some serious martial arts skills. In just a couple of minutes,

the group of men trained by Tyrell were all on the ground, whimpering and defeated.

It was a humiliating defeat for Tyrell.

Blake clucked his tongue. "Oh well, anyone else want a turn? This is too easy."

"I'm disappointed," he added. He hadn't even broken a sweat yet.

Tyrell's face darkened. He glared at Franklin and said with bitterness, "What the hell is going on here?"

The hotel's security personnel and manager were hesitant to intervene. They watched from a distance,

fearful that getting involved might make things worse.

Mr. Mcguire and his group were all stunned by the spectacle. Sylvia's martial arts skills were incredible,

and Franklin's strength was astonishing. Katie silently thanked her lucky stars that she hadn't been

beaten to death by Sylvia on that plane – it was nothing short of a miracle.

Taking a deep breath, she moved closer to Mr. Mcguire for safety. Her own life was the top priority.

"Father, I'm no longer the same Franklin as before. I hope you understand that," Franklin said. He held

Sylvia's hand and continued, "We're leaving."

They turned and left, with Blake and the others following them out of the venue in a noisy exit. Tyrell's

sinister gaze stayed locked on Franklin's retreating figure, lingering long after they had gone.

Mrs. Wright and her family got into a car and headed their separate ways.

The Wright family sat in one vehicle, and Mrs. Wright, as usual, was thoughtful. "Sylvia is truly

amazing. If it weren't for Sylvia and Franklin, we wouldn't have had so many guests at our banquet

today."

"Jenna has been busy lately at the piano association," Brayden said. "There are events to organize,

and it's quite a hassle for her to fly back and forth between Larro and Urgford. Maybe our whole family

should move here."

"That's a good idea," Mrs. Wright agreed.

Just then, Mrs. Wright's phone rang, and she picked it up.

Vita's voice came through from the other end. "Aunt, have you arrived in Urgford? Have you met Mr.

Wright?"

Mrs. Wright replied gently, "Yes, we've met. He got promoted. He's now the secretary of Urgford. When

you have a break, come visit."

Vita was excited. "Really? I'll be on winter break soon. Can I come?"

"Of course! We have more than enough food at home. Just let me know when you're on break. Urgford

is quite cold, though. It's up north and has different weather compared to Larro."

"I'll bring lots of warm clothes, and as long as Uncle Wright is safe, I'm happy." Vita said her goodbyes

to Mrs. Wright and ended the call.

Brayden furrowed his brows. "Mom, who was that?"

Mrs. Wright explained, "Do you remember that child from the disaster area, Vita? She's the one who

received assistance and went on to attend college in Larro. You've been busy in Urgford with your

dad's work recently, so you haven't seen her, but she often visits me on weekends to chat and keep me

company. She's a sweet and kind girl."

Brayden felt that something was off. Vita didn't seem to be the kind and gentle person she appeared to

be. Jenna, overhearing the conversation, also shared Brayden's doubts.

Suddenly, their car braked abruptly, and they were thrust forward due to the inertia. The driver panicked

and said, "There are two black cars constantly tailing us! They almost caused me to crash into the

barrier."

Then, screeching brakes echoed once more. Two black cars stopped right in front of their vehicle, and

several men in black, armed with steel pipes, got out of the cars and approached menacingly.

Cody squinted and said, "These people mean trouble."

Brayden asked, "Dad, have you offended someone?"

Cody replied, "I just got out of prison. How could I have offended anyone? I think it's because I took the

secretary's position, and some people are getting impatient and unhappy."

The men with steel pipes began attacking their car relentlessly. The driver locked the doors, but the

attackers continued smashing the car doors.

Jenna and Mrs. Wright were terrified and huddled together, staring pale-faced at the violent attackers

outside. Brayden dialed 911, and as he spoke to the emergency services, a loud crash was heard as

the car doors were smashed open.

Jenna and Mrs. Wright clung to each other in fear while Brayden spoke to the operator.

Cody instructed the men to stop and approached the car door. After briefly negotiating with the

attackers, he stepped out of the car.

Seeing him leave the car, Mrs. Wright cried out, "Cody!"

Brayden shouted, "Dad!"

Cody told the attackers, "You don't need to harm my family; I'll come with you. But please, spare my

wife and son. They are innocent." Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Cody opened his car door and walked out calmly, standing his ground. Upon seeing this, Mrs. Wright

screamed, and Brayden, feeling powerless, instructed his mother and sister not to leave the car.

As Cody exited the vehicle, one of the attackers pulled out a gun and aimed it at Brayden. The gun's

dark barrel pointed directly at him. The attacker warned, "Don't move, or I'll shoot your dad in the

head."

With his words, he fired a shot at Brayden's feet, creating a hole in the ground and sending dirt flying.

Startled, Brayden raised his hands in surrender. He was horrified to discover that these ruthless men

were armed with guns.

The phone Cody left in the car played an important role during this crisis. Jenna picked it up and spoke

to the police dispatcher, explaining their situation. She provided their location, although she wasn't

familiar with the area, using the phone's GPS to determine their exact location.

Mrs. Wright, trembling and anxious, kept a close eye on the attackers, praying that they wouldn't

overhear Jenna's conversation with the police. The dispatcher assured Jenna that the police were on

their way and instructed them to keep the attackers occupied.

Meanwhile, outside the car, Cody was pinned to the ground by several attackers who brutally beat him.

His recent release from prison had left him physically weakened, and he was now paying the price for

that vulnerability. Seeing his father's condition, Brayden, full of rage, demanded that the attackers let

his father go, offering himself as a target.

In response, one of the attackers pointed a gun at Brayden's head, warning him to stay still. Cody,

struggling to breathe through the pain, tried to persuade his son to stay away and keep himself safe.

As the assault continued, the situation took an unexpected turn when a group of uniformed officers

arrived and surrounded the attackers. Their timely intervention marked a turning point in the dangerous

standoff.
