Chapter 1678
"I never expected, Emerson's daughter... to actually have some brains."
Wesley nodded, saying, "Exactly, that's my thought, and what I intend to do. Since you all know this is for the good of humanity, you shouldn't stand in my way."
"We're not standing in your way."
"Sophie!"
Harold's face turned sour.
Not standing in his way?
Could they really just watch this man destroy the whole world?
"I don't have an overflowing sense of altruism, I just want to save my friend. Whether you destroy the world or not doesn't concern me, as long as Jenna is safe, you can have the gemstone!" Sophie directly opened the lid of the gemstone, revealing a colorful stone inside, only missing a corner.novelbin
Sophie had guessed early on that the gemstones held by the four major families must have been cut from this original stone.
So, she had a craftsman cut off a corner temporarily.
Whether it was useful or not, at least it could intimidate Wesley for a moment.
Sure enough, upon seeing the original stone, Wesley's eyes flickered: "Reece, bring Ms. Jenna over."
"Yes, father."
Reece prepared to go down without changing his expression, but Kena suddenly said, "Lord, I just saw with my own eyes Reece taking Jenna away, he's definitely not trustworthy!" Hearing this, Adler's face changed: "Reece! Where did you take Jenna?"
"People, I just put her in the back room to rest, if you don't believe me, you can come and see for yourself."
Reece's expression remained calm.
"Alright then, I'll go with you. I really want to see how long you can keep up this act."
Kena sneered and followed in front of Reece.
Reece led Kena towards the door in the farthest corner behind the church.
Once Reece and Kena had both left,
Sophie tightened her grip on. Det

Reece and Kena were the two strongest fighters by Wesley's side.
With both of them gone, their chances of winning were much higher.
Adler was silent for a moment, tapping out in Morse code: What do you think? Should we rush them?
The next second, as if sensing the others' intentions, Wesley calmly said, "Gentlemen, no need to rush into action."
With one sentence, the four people who were eager to move were temporarily deterred from acting rashly.
Wesley continued, "Unless you're
confident you can break through these ten people in front of you within three seconds, of course, this is under the premise that your friend has been killed by me."
After saying that, Wesley aimed his gun at Odie beside him.
Odie had been standing by Wesley's side from beginning to end, without saying a word.
"The gemstone is very important to me, but I'm also not fond of deception, Sophie, Colby, you two should also know, if the gemstone is fake, what kind of consequences you'll face." en
