Chapter 89 Precision Strikes on William
At that moment, Joey realized that the most beautiful woman in Southlake City, Willow, was standing there. So, it had to be the useless Caspian standing before her.
‘Pretty lady, come and help me to get these handcuffs off!” William, a local from Southlake City, was touched by Willow’s beauty.
Me?” Zoey asked, sounding somewhat afraid.
‘No, it’s the person beside you!” William replied.
Willow appeared even more outstanding in comparison with Zoey.
“I refuse!” Willow firmly declined as she was afraid to approach William.
He was taken aback as he didn’t expect her to decline so resolutely.
“The car will be here soon. There’s no one else to help you with these cuffs. Should I do it?” Joey said.
William vehemently objected, “No! Anyone but you!” His encounter with Joey had left him a psychological scar.
Joey was in a dilemma. She held a gun and was uncertain about what to do next.
“My patience is wearing thin. If you keep stalling, I’ll have to take matters into my own hands! William tightened his grip on the glass shards. He was acutely aware that time was running out, and he needed to escape soon to avoid trouble.
“Wait, I’ll do it!” Willow shouted. If she refused to unlock the cuffs and caused Camen to lose her life because of it, she would carry the guilt for a lifetime.
“Wait a minute, I have another demand! Joey has to shoot herself in the leg!” William said viciously.
Yesterday, he had been brutally taught a lesson by Joey, and now he had a chance for revenge..
Simultaneously, he was setting up favorable conditions for his escape.
Joey was a formidable opponent, and even if he managed to break free later, there was a chance she might seize an opportunity to apprehend him.
The unexpected demand from William took Joey aback. But it seemed she had no choice but to save the hostage.
In the next moment, Joey grabbed her gun and aimed it at her left leg.
“Hold on!” Caspian shouted while swiftly dodging away. His sudden yell caught William off

Caspian seized this opportune moment and acted swiftly. Willow and Zoey, who stood nearby, were overcome with fear and couldn’t bear to watch the incident any longer.
A deafening gunshot reverberated through the air.
Joey stood frozen as she tried to understand what had just occurred. Yet, she could clearly feel that the gun in her hand had vanished.
The people around were filled with terror upon hearing the gunshot.
Joey glanced at Caspian, who was standing before her. She noticed him raising a pistol and aiming it directly at William and Carmen.
The spectators were frozen in shock and fixed their eyes on William and Carmen.
They witnessed the horror–stricken expression on William’s face. His eyes were wide, and his b*dy immobile, all because of the newly formed bullet hole on his forehead.
In a split second, Caspian seized the opportunity. He’d snatched the gun from Joey and fired a
shot at William.
Joey was utterly dumbfounded after witnessing the scene. The spectators around wore expressions of disbelief as they looked at him.
None of them had expected everything to unfold so swiftly.
Caspian’s actions were too rapid for anyone to comprehend, yet William had already been fatally shot. His extraordinary skills took everyone by surprise.
Although William held Carmen hostage and stood behind her, her petite frame failed to shield William’s head effectively.
Caspian had seized this opportunity to wrestle the pistol from Joey’s hands to deliver a lethal
blow.
He navigated the battlefield with expertise, eliminating countless enemies with precision using his firearm. It was his confidence in his abilities that allowed him to pull the trigger.
Dealing with societal menaces like William on the spot was deemed the best course of action.
During the crowd’s shock, Caspian dropped his pistol and swiftly took another huge step
forward.
William’s b*dy began to lean backward, but his hands remained on Carmen’s shoulders. The glass shard in his grip posed an imminent threat to her.
In a flash, Caspian materialized in front of Carmen and swiftly snatched the glass shard from
William’s hands to rescue her.

William’s lifeless form collapsed with a thud, a fate he could never have anticipated.
Willow was deeply impressed when she witnessed Caspian get rid of William with a single move. She knew he was highly skilled, but the extent of his marksmanship had caught her off guard.
At this moment, Carmen was overwhelmed with fear. She found it hard to believe that she had emerged unscathed.
In that intense moment just now, she felt something rush nasr above her head as she watched Caspian raise his pistol in her direction.
“You’re safe now,” Caspian said expressionlessly to the stunned Carmen.
She snapped back to reality. Her gaze shifted to William, who lay in a pool of blood, and her b*dy trembled with fear.
Carmen let out a startled cry and buried herself in Caspian’s arms. Then, she clung tightly to
him. Her voice was choked with tears.
Caspian was momentarily surprised as he hadn’t expected her reaction. Willow was standing right next to him, and there were still plenty of people in the hall watching them.
However, he understood Carmen’s emotional response. After all, she had been severely frightened by the recent events. It was a natural reaction for her to seek comfort after this
incident.
Caspian didn’t push her away
now.”
Instead, he reassured her by saying, “It’s all over. You’re safe
As he spoke, he gently patted her back. She continued sobbing loudly, as she had never before experienced such a terrifying ordeal.
Willow witnessed the scene and didn’t feel a hint of jealousy. After all, Carmen’s reaction was
solely due to the shock of the recent events.
Willow and Zoey approached and extended words of comfort to Carmen.
Both had witnessed too many gruesome scenes recently, making them somewhat desensitized
to this.
The battle Caspian had faced earlier had been a hundred times more gruesome than they witnessed now.
Joey took a moment to regain her composure. Then, she picked up the gun from the ground and approached William. She confirmed William’s death after she saw his lifeless state.
Soon after, more inspectors arrived at the scene. They swiftly established a perimeter to secure the area of the scene.

“Quick, help the injured! Quick, help them!” Joey shouted urgently as she witnessed her colleague lying on the ground in a critical state.
Doctors used a stretcher to transport the injured inspector to the emergency room.
At this point, Carmen’s emotions began to stabilize. She gently withdrew from Caspian’s
embrace.
“Thank you for saving me.” She expressed her gratitude.
“It’s nothing, don’t mention it,” Caspian replied.
They then introduced themselves to each other.
“Thank you all.” Carmen thanked him again.
“You’re welcome. You should go and check your wounds,” Caspian advised her.
She nodded and turned away.
Meanwhile, Joey approached Caspian and looked at him. Her voice was cold as she said, ” Follow me to the Office of Inspector General.”
