Chapter 507

Isabella Langley grabbed Vivian Laurent's wrist.

"Are you insane? The Dark Web has issued a bounty!"

Vivian shook her off with steely determination.

"I know."

Isabella stamped her foot in frustration.

"A ten-billion-dollar reward will mobilize the entire underworld!"

Vivian walked to the window, gazing into the night.

"So what?"

Isabella followed urgently.

"Liam is a ticking time bomb! If he stays with you, he'll expose your location!"

Vivian turned, her gaze sharp as a blade.

"I won't abandon him."

Isabella inhaled sharply.

"Do you even understand how the Dark Web operates? They're untraceable—even by Interpol!"

Vivian gave a humorless laugh.

"And?"

Isabella's eyes reddened with panic.

"They'll stop at nothing to find you!"

Vivian moved to the hospital bed, checking on the unconscious Liam.

"Let them come."

Isabella gritted her teeth.

"You're being unreasonable!"

Vivian adjusted Liam's IV line.

"His injuries are too severe."

Isabella lowered her voice abruptly.

"The Organization already has people searching for him."

Vivian's hands stilled.

"Since when?"

Isabella leaned closer.

"Two hours after we left."

Vivian smirked coldly.

"How efficient."

Isabella seized her arm.

"It's not too late to return him!"

Vivian shoved her away.

"Never."

Isabella paced wildly.

"You're signing your own death warrant!"

Vivian dialed a number on her phone.

"I need a safe house."

A deep male voice responded.

"Meet at the usual spot in three hours."

Hanging up, Vivian faced Isabella.

"I need a favor."

Isabella backed away warily.

"What now?"

Vivian flashed a dangerous smile.

"Distract the Organization's surveillance."

Isabella's eyes widened.

"You're out of your mind!"

Vivian patted her shoulder.

"Consider it repayment for last time."

Isabella stomped again.

"You'll get us all killed!"

Vivian was already packing supplies.

"Trust me."

Nathan Clementson entered abruptly.

"The test results are in."

He handed Vivian a file.

"It's worse than we thought."

Vivian scanned the report quickly.

"Can he recover?"

Nathan adjusted his glasses.

"He'll need prolonged rest."

Vivian closed the file.

"Thanks, Nathan."

Nathan hesitated.

"This patient... he's special?"

Vivian stuffed the file into her bag.

"An old friend."

Nathan took the hint.

"Call if you need anything."

Vivian nodded.

"Dinner's on me next time."

Isabella rushed over suddenly.

"They've tracked us to the hospital!"

Vivian's expression hardened.

"Take the back exit."

She lifted Liam effortlessly.

Nathan blocked her path.

"Use the staff elevator."

The three moved swiftly down the corridor.

Footsteps pounded toward them.

Isabella gripped Vivian's sleeve.

"We're out of time!"

Vivian passed Liam to Nathan.

"Get him out first."

Isabella clung to her.

"What about you?"

Vivian's smile turned glacial.

"I'll entertain our guests."
