Chapter 24 Listen to the Drop
Wrapped in Gabriel's clothes, Ava trembled in shock.
On the floor, seven black-clad figures moaned in agony, their eyes all gouged out.
The gruesome scene was almost too much for her to bear.
Gabriel was so ruthless. He was completely different from the mischievous guy she knew.
But she also knew that Gabriel did all this for her.
These people had seen her exposed chest and defiled her modesty.
At that, she was no longer afraid and suppressed her compassionate nature.
She kept telling herself that these people deserved what they got.
Whether it was the playful Gabriel or the merciless one, they were both Gabriel.
And he captivated her.
Mia furrowed her brows further and further.
She knew boxing, and her combat skills were quite good.
But based on what she saw today, she could only say that Gabriel's skills were terrifying.
And this was after he lost his memory.
He was fighting by dint of muscle memory and explosive power.
If Gabriel fully remembered his past and recovered his skills, it was unimaginable how terrifying his combat abilities would become.
This piqued her curiosity even more.
What was his identity before he lost his memory?
Why was he so strong yet ended up losing his memory?
The reasons were truly unfathomable.
And despite spending half a year with him, she still couldn't see through this enigmatic man.
"Please, let me go!" Samuel pleaded, dropping all pretenses and appealing to Gabriel on his last shred of consciousness.
Though he was involved in shady activities and had done many terrible things, compared to this demonic man, he was merely a small fish in a big pond.
He didn't want to play anymore. He couldn't afford to lose.
It was a foolish decision to cause trouble for the Foster sisters.
Now, all he wanted was to leave this hellish place.
"Let you go? It seems like you're still dreaming!"
Gabriel's cold words instantly crushed Samuel's spirit.
Once the game started, it wouldn't end so easily.
Gabriel looked around and suddenly spotted a window. Narrowing his eyes, he said, "Alright then. Things need to come to an end. I'll give you a chance! We're on the seventh floor. I'll throw you out the window, and whether you live or die will depend on your luck!"
Samuel was utterly terrified.
The Seventh floor!
In his current state, the fall would undoubtedly kill him.
He panicked, struggled desperately, and shouted in despair, "No, I can't die like this! If I die, the Davis family won't let you go. You're courting trouble!"
"Don't bother to worry about me!" Narrowing his eyes, Gabriel casually said, "As long as I don't want to, no one can do anything to me. Not even hundreds of armed policemen could kill me.
"So, killing you is not a problem for me!
"I'm not in a good mood right now. Besides killing you, I'm considering going to your house and killing every member of your family. That could be considered as getting rid of a nuisance for the people!
"I'm pretty sure that your whole family doesn't have any decent people."
At such a point, this idiot was still trying to scare him with the Davis family.
If he was afraid of them, he wouldn't have stepped into this mess.
Now, he could do anything he wanted.
After all, he was strong, and he didn't have many things to worry about.
If anyone annoyed him, they were done for.
No one in the Dragon Kingdom could catch him anyway.
Besides, he was using a fake identity.
So, whether it was the Davis family or any other force, he didn't care at all.
He did things purely based on his mood.
And those who provoked him were considered unlucky.
Upon hearing Gabriel's words, Samuel nearly passed out.
His last hope was dashed.
All his reliance had no effect on Gabriel.
"Gabriel, freeze! Raise your hands!"
Just when Samuel was feeling disheartened, Robert appeared.
In Samuel's eyes, the man was surrounded by a holy light.
Robert was his absolute savior.
Robert had come back with several police officers.
He aimed his gun at Gabriel, but when he saw everything in the room, his mind went blank.
'What the hell?'
All seven of Samuel's subordinates were lying on the ground.
They were in a miserable state, their eyes gouged out.
Even Samuel himself was being held up in the air by Gabriel.
Robert was dumbfounded, unable to comprehend the situation.
His hand holding the gun began to tremble.
Hearing Robert's voice, Gabriel turned his head.
His crimson eyes coldly stared at Robert. "What took you so long? Did you get lost in the courtyard?
"I'm not in a good mood right now. Get out of my face, or I'll deal with you too."
Originally, he was still thinking about going to the police station, having a cup of coffee, and challenging the power of the Davis family.
But Samuel messed it all up, and he was no longer in the mood to do that.
He decided to settle everything through violence.
His words struck Robert dumb.
For the first time, he felt his identity as a police officer was fragile.
"Gabriel, you've threatened a police officer, which is a serious crime. Release Samuel immediately and try to get lenient treatment. Otherwise, your fate will be miserable!"
His palms were sweaty, and even holding the gun felt slippery.
Although Robert spoke toughly, he secretly panicked.
"Go ahead and shoot me, or get lost!" Gabriel snorted, turning away from the man.
He tightened his grip on Samuel and walked toward the window.
As he pushed it open, a cold wind blew in.
In an instant, Samuel felt despair choking him.
"Gabriel, don't act recklessly. I'll really shoot!"
Completely intimidated by Gabriel's imposing demeanor, Robert trembled and sweated profusely.
He didn't dare move a muscle as Gabriel approached the window.
"Whether you live or die depends on your luck."
Gabriel treated Robert as if he were invisible, paying no attention to him whatsoever.
Slowly, he pushed Samuel's body out of the window.
Mia, Ava, and Robert were all on edge.
Once Gabriel let go, Samuel would undoubtedly meet his demise.
It would be a case of manslaughter and a matter of grave importance.
Just as everyone's hearts reached their throats, a sudden ding broke the tension.
Samuel's phone rang crisply and suspensefully.
"Oh, let's see who's calling!"
His curiosity piqued, Gabriel reached into Samuel's pocket with his other hand.
He took out the phone and looked at the caller ID: Grandfather.
Unexpectedly, it was the head of the Davis family.
Gabriel became interested and pressed the answer button.
A feeble voice came from the other end, "Samuel, how's everything going?"
Gabriel narrowed his eyes and slowly replied, "Sorry, I'm not Samuel."
"You... You're Gabriel?" Michael was startled.
Gabriel said, "Who else could I be?"
"Where's Samuel? What did you do to him?" A sense of unease filled Michael's heart.
"Oh, him!" Gabriel glanced at the disheveled man and smiled. "He's barely clinging to life. By the way, I was planning to throw him off the seventh floor. Since you called, would you like to listen to the drop?"
