Chapter 677 Didn't Blow Up?
Hearing those words, all four of them clenched their fists, ready to charge in and beat up those creeps.
They stepped out quickly, but suddenly, a tall figure blocked their way!
At first, they were on guard, but when they saw who it was, they were completely stunned!
It was Alex! He was still alive!
Alex turned his head and said, "I'll handle this!"
Then, they watched him storm towards the yard, kicking open the iron gate, startling the group of creeps indulging in drinks and meat.
Seeing Alex, Carl's accomplices were shocked! "Weren't you blown up? Are you a human or a ghost?"
Alex demanded, "Where's my wife?"
"Who's your wife? We don't know! Guys, let's get him! We'll capture him alive and hand him over to the boss!" one of the accomplices shouted.
Alex kicked over their barbecue grill with his long legs, and the coals spilled onto their bodies and faces, burning them and making them scream in pain!
Just as they were about to attack Alex, three strong men and a woman with gold-rimmed glasses came in behind him and surrounded them.
Ambrosia adjusted her gold-rimmed glasses, then bent down and grabbed one of the men who had been knocked down. "Where's the pregnant woman you kidnapped?"
The bruised and battered man spat out some blood and, with a missing front tooth, said, "In there!"
He raised his trembling hand and pointed to a small house.
Ambrosia let go of him and, after giving him a hard kick to knock him out, quickly walked towards the small shabby house.
After dealing with the two men in front of him, Alex also headed towards the small shabby house!
Ambrosia cautiously pushed open the door, wary of any ambush inside, but when she saw the scene inside, she paused for a moment.
Katherine, heavily pregnant, was straddling Carl, grabbing his collar, and viciously hitting his head. "Tell me! Where did you take Alex?"
Carl couldn't fight back at all.
Just now, he had turned to get some paper and a pen when Katherine knocked him out with some junk and started beating him!
Carl said, "Hahaha. He's dead, blown up."
Katherine, her voice hoarse with anger, said, "You're lying. He can't be dead. Tell me where he is, or I'll beat you to death."
Carl, with blood spurting from the corner of his mouth and his eyes swollen shut, still laughed maniacally. "Even if you beat me to death, it won't change anything. That bastard is dead. The police took his body away, didn't you know? Hahaha, you crazy woman, going mad over a dead man."
Katherine's eyes turned blood-red with murderous intent, and her voice trembled as she cursed, "You're the bastard. How dare you insult Alex? Tell me where he is now, or I'll beat you up!."
Carl was punched so hard by Katherine that he was left with ringing ears. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "He's dead, and beating me won't bring him back, you crazy woman."
Katherine was shaking all over. Since hearing the news, she had been trying to keep it together, forcing herself to stay calm, but now, she couldn't hold it in any longer. She was a mess.
She had tried to distance herself from Alex so many times, but she never thought he would die, never thought he would just disappear from this world. She couldn't accept it!
She lost it and grabbed Carl's neck. "If he's dead, I'll make sure you join him."
Carl's face turned red instantly, struggling to breathe!
At that moment, a woman's voice called out. "Katherine."
Hearing Ambrosia's voice, Katherine's hands, which were about to strangle Carl, loosened. She turned to look.
It was Ambrosia.
Not just Ambrosia, Frank was there too, along with Bernard and Sunny.
They had all come to find her.
But the main point was that Alex was there too!
Alex stood in the middle of them, looking at her with a somewhat bewildered expression, then he narrowed his eyes, half-smiling.
Ambrosia walked over to her first. "Katherine, don't dirty your hands with this guy. Come on, get up and rest for a bit. We'll hand him over to the police later."
Katherine looked at Ambrosia, then at her own hands on Carl's neck, and she instantly snapped back to reality, quickly pulling her hands away.
Heavily pregnant, she struggled to stand up on her own and reached out for Ambrosia's help, but before she could touch Ambrosia, Alex's rough hand grabbed hers!
Ambrosia was pulled aside by Frank.
Seeing Alex holding her hand, Katherine instinctively tried to pull it back.
As if anticipating her reaction, Alex tightened his grip on her hand and knelt down beside her, looking at her with a gentle gaze. "Were you avenging me just now?"
Katherine awkwardly said, "No, I just didn't like him."
"Oh, really?" Alex smiled as he raised his other hand to gently caress her face, which was still flushed with anger, as if he was soothing her emotions.
Katherine stared at Alex without blinking, feeling the warmth of his hand on her cheek, the rough yet tender sensation.
Her emotions suddenly collapsed. The extreme highs and lows were too much. She had thought he was dead, and then he appeared alive in front of her, just as real as before. Tears swelled uncontrollably in her eyes.
At this moment, Carl couldn't stand it anymore. "Alex, you bastard, you didn't get blown up."
Alex finally realized his wife was still sitting on another man. He frowned, then lifted Katherine off Carl and stomped hard on his half-brother! "You are far from being able to kill me."
Carl was in pain and anger, feeling like his insides were about to burst from Alex's stomp.
The police Alex had brought rushed in at that moment. They handcuffed the bloodied Carl and dragged him away.
At this moment, Katherine seemed to collapse, leaning against Alex, too exhausted to struggle or care anymore.
She didn't even know how she had the strength to beat Carl with such a big belly.
Alex bent down to press his forehead against hers and softly reassured her, "It's okay now. I'm fine. Don't worry."
