Wait, She’s a Billionaire (Sheena Lawson) novel Chapter 1685

Giorgio's men showed no respect for Nathaniel's people, provoking them repeatedly until tensions boiled over.

Soon, three gunshots rang out downstairs, and Giorgio's men hurriedly came upstairs to report.

"Mr. Hollis, their men just attacked us!"

Upon hearing this, Giorgio immediately chambered a bullet, bluntly stating, "Nathaniel, you brought this upon yourself!"

In truth, even if Nathaniel's men had not struck first, Giorgio would have claimed they did.

After all, he never had the intention of letting Nathaniel leave alive.

However, Nathaniel was no pushover.

During the pat-down, he had discreetly moved his concealed gun.

He glanced at Tommy, who immediately understood and threw a small package at him.

"Mr. Nicholls, catch!"

Nathaniel swiftly assembled the handgun and engaged Giorgio in combat.

Both men were seasoned fighters, having trained relentlessly over the years.

Neither could gain the upper hand immediately, and they were locked in a fierce struggle.

After trading blows several times, both men sustained injuries and paused, catching their breath.

Giorgio eyed Nathaniel with a hint of admiration.

"I didn't expect Froania to produce someone this skilled. I've underestimated you."

Nathaniel had no time for small talk and swiftly launched another aggressive attack.

The longer he stayed here, the worse it would be for him.

However, he soon realized something was wrong.

He felt his strength fading, his head growing dizzy.

He immediately discovered Giorgio had released a potent gas that could slow his senses.

Seeing Nathaniel's condition, Giorgio smirked.

"Damn it, he got away!" Giorgio cursed, staring at the shattered window.

His subordinates arrived in a panic and reported, "Mr. Hollis, their reinforcements are here. We're no match for them. Should we leave now? The basement is ready with your getaway car."

Giorgio heard the commotion outside.

Moreover, Nathaniel also managed to hit him earlier, and he was feeling the pain from his wounds.

With no other choice, Giorgio reluctantly decided to leave despite his frustration.

Ten minutes after Giorgio departed, Nathaniel's team seized control of the mansion and rescued the hostages inside.

However, Giorgio was a cunning old fox. He had only held half of the hostages there, and the whereabouts of the others remained unknown.

Tommy was rescued and given an injection to quickly clear his head.

He anxiously observed the torn fabric of Nathaniel's shirt near the window and shouted, "Initiate a blanket search in this area of the sea! We must find Mr. Nicholls!"

"Yes, sir!"
