Oops My Toyboy Is A Hidden Tycoon

It was only then that Pamela took out her phone, her hands trembling as she dialed the police.

At that moment, only Cynthia and the others had taken Lilian away, while the other guests remained gathered together.

Moments ago, everyone had indeed been terrified because the lights were off.

But now, with all the lights back on, everything was illuminated, leaving nowhere to hide, and security guard from the Yates family had also arrived in force,

Today, the Yates family had invited many distinguished guests, including some officials. Theodore, the chief of the police station in Roncrity, was among them.

While others were either panicking or worried for their own safety, Theodore had been observing the scene carefully. After the bride and groom left, he closed the ballroom doors.

At this moment, Theodore suddenly stepped forward, his voice cold and stern, “After the gunshot, apart from those four, not one else has left this ballroom.”

There was a murmur among the crowd as someone understood and chimed in, “Mr. Buck, are you saying the shooter is still here?”

Theodore replied, “From this moment, no one is allowed to leave. I am determined to catch the shooter.”

Shirley, witnessing the scene, turned pale.

She thought, ‘Luke has completely botched it. I’d instructed him to deal with Cynthia, but he’d hit Lilian instead!’

Shirley scanned the crowd, searching for Luke.

Luke himself was scared to death. Although he’d been on the streets for years, engaging in scams and thefts, he had never actually killed anyone.

However, the allure of 16 million dollars to fund a gambling spree in Damianus had convinced him to go along with Shirley’s lan, especially since he despised Cynthia for making him lose a finger.

Still, as he pulled the trigger, his nerves got the best of him, especially when he saw a white figure rushing forward. He couldn’t control his hand, and the shot ended up hitting the bride, Mrs. Yates.

Luke knew his murder plan had failed. He initially planned to escape, but the banquet hall lights suddenly came on.

Shirley had promised she would cut the power at the crucial moment to aid his escape. But she hadn’t done so. ‘What is that wretched woman up to?‘ Luke imagined.

To make matters worse, the police chief announced he would catch the shooter. Luke knew escape was impossible.

He tucked the pistol inside his coat and slowly moved toward the door, planning to slip out.

But in his anxiety, he stumbled and nearly fell, causing the gun to drop from his coat.

Those nearby paused in shock, and then someone screamed, “The shooter! He’s here!”

Luke reacted quickly, gun and pointing it at the crowd. “Don’t come any closer, or I’ll shoot!“.

Everyone backed away as Theodore approached. “Why did you shoot Mrs. Yates?” he asked.

“I don’t know. Just let me out. Let me out now!” Luke swung the gun wildly from one person to another, clearly panicked.

“Turn yourself in. There’s no way out for you today,” Theodore urged.

Surrendering would mean death for him. Shirley, panicking, knew she couldn’t let Luke be caught. If he was arrested, he would expose her involvement, and she’d be charged with hiring a killer–a serious crime.

Without anyone noticing, Shirley had already moved to the table next to Luke. She purposefully tripped over a chair and fell right in front of him.

Seeing Shirley, Luke immediately understood the situation.

He yanked Shirley from the floor, hooking an arm around her neck and pressing the gun to her temple. “Let me out, or I’ll kill her.”

Shirley’s fall shocked everyone.

Selena was petrified, and Justin, already under stress, began feeling chest pains. Selena was handing Justin heart medication, not realizing that Shirley had left her seat.

When they finally noticed, Shirley was already in Luke’s grasp, a gun pointed at her head. Seeing this, Selena felt like she was also going to have a heart attack. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

She thought, ‘What is wrong with Shirley? She has been acting so well–behaved tonight, not causing any trouble at all. But

now…”

Despite everything, Selena was most concerned for Shirley’s safety and ran forward, disregarding the danger. “Please, don’t hurt her! I beg you, don’t hurt my daughter.”

At this moment, apart from pleading, Selena had no other options.

Luke was retreating step by step, already at the door, while Theodore was closing in on him. “I suggest you don’t make pointless struggles, you can’t escape.”

Luke’s eyes were bloodshot with rage as he pressed the gun hard against Shirley’s forehead. “Open the door. Don’t follow me, or I swear I’ll kill her right now!”

Shirley kept crying out, “Stop provoking him, he might actually kill me. I beg you, please help me.”

With no other option, they watched helplessly as Luke dragged the hostage out.

Once outside the Caesar Hotel, a black van pulled up. Shirley whispered, “Quick, get in!”

Luke didn’t overthink it. This had been part of their plan all along. He carried out the killing, and Shirley handled the aftermath, arranging for their escape directly to the airport.

Shirley had already prepared the money, passports, tickets, and their new identities. He would soon be able to fly to Damianus with 16 million dollars and a new identity.

Once they were in the car, it immediately merged onto the highway, blending into the flow of traffic.

After they got in the car, Luke still remained in the position of holding Shirley hostage. Shirley said irritably, “Luke, can’t you let me go now?”

Looking out the rear window, Luke saw no

from Shirley’s head and slipped it into his pocket.

Shirley cast a glance at the pocket where he had placed the gun, then started speaking, “Luke, what were you thinking? I told you to kill Cynthia, and you shoot the bride? You’re useless!”

The more Shirley thought about it, the more upset she got. With this failure, they might never have another chance.

Luke was also bottling up frustration. “How was I supposed to k What’s wrong with her?”
