Chapter 186
Luke’s pupils shrank slightly. Obviously, he didn’t expect Xavier to actually do it.
He immediately raised his gun and pointed it at a child’s head.
Xavier stopped rushing forward, raised his hands, and a drop of sweat fell from his forehead.
A flattering smile appeared on his rough face.
“Hey, we are all surrounded by you. You asked us to do it just now, so I did it. I thought you were really happy to see me do it…. I just understood what you meant literally. Don’t hurt the child. I’ll just step back, Xavier spoke as he backed away.
But Luke had no intention of letting the child go.
Juliette knew that, in Luke’s eyes, other people’s lives were nothing. Killing a person was no different from crushing an ant for him.
He still had so many people in control, and Xavier’s actions had obviously angered him. He would definitely kill this child.
“Before Liam died, he left a sentence for Luke. Do you want to tell Luke what it is now?” Juliette suddenly asked, very loudly.
Liam was the name of their big brother, Luke
Xavier, Thora, and even Patrick didn’t understand why she said that.
Xavier looked at Juliette, his eyes full of doubts. Before Liam was executed, he didn’t leave any words.
It was Patrick, who quickly got what Juliette meant.
He immediately picked up Juliette’s words.
“Not only did he leave a sentence, he also left a relic. You brought it this time too, didn’t you? You were so busy rescuing children and girls that you forgot about it?”
Luke immediately asked, “What relic did my brother leave behind? Give it to me!”
“Well, if you want what you want, you have to negotiate with us, right?” Juliette said.
Luke’s gaze, cold as a for
ierced through his lenses and settled on Juliette’s face.
“Are you trying to trick me? He didn’t actually leave anything behind!”
Juliette raised an eyebrow. “If that’s what you think, there’s nothing I can do. If you kill us all, you’ll never know what your brother left behind, both in words and objects.”
Luke’s brows furrowed, his eyebrows appearing even sharper.
Xavier finally understood what Juliette meant.
He immediately said, “Liam told me on his deathbed that those words and the relic must be given to you personally.”
Luke was clearly torn between belief and disbelief.
Juliette said, “In your hands, we only have two options, run and be killed, or wait here to die. Similarly, in front of us, you

only have two options, to believe or not to believe.”

“What’s your condition?” Luke said, “don’t even think about trading my brother’s will and relics for your lives. That’s not going to happen,”
Ginger glanced at Patrick.
She was too weak.
Patrick pursed his lips and spoke to Luke on her behalf.
“If you want to know what Liam said to you before he died, let these children go first.”
Patrick’s voice seemed to come from his chest, very deep.
It gave people a sense of trustworthiness.
Luke laughed. “One sentence in exchange for so many lives? Human life is also very cheap in your eyes.”
Patrick said. “You are wrong, whether your brother’s words are worth the lives of so many children is actually up to you.”
Xavier added. “That sentence is bullshit to us, but it’s different to you.”
Patrick continued, “Besides, only if you meet our first condition will we talk about the second condition. Otherwise, you will never know what Liam left you.”
Luke thought about the last night he spent with Liam and was filled with rage, refusing to listen to any last words Liam might have uttered.
But just now, Juliette said that Liam had left a will to be delivered only to him. Luke’s heart stirred.
They are just a bunch of kids. It doesn’t seem that important to send them away as long as the three key figures are still on board, Luke thought to himself.
“Luke, they’re obviously lying to you! We never heard them mention any will or belongings before!” Jacob interjected.
Luke’s eyes were bloodshot, but he offered no explanation to jacob and still had the children released.
Xavier kept winking at Juliette.
Liam didn’t have any last words at all.
Now that they had reies the children, what was he supposed to say to Luke?
If Luke found out he had been deceived, wouldn’t he kill all the innocent girls on board?
“Sir, give me the belongings, and you go and tell Luke about Liam’s will. Don’t let him take the belongings.” Patrick said. loudly.
Xavier was speechless. There’s no such thing as belongings.
However, Xavier still went over to Patrick’s side cooperatively.
Luke had been observing their actions, but he didn’t step in to stop them.
Xavier pretended to take out the belongings from his pocket.

Finally, he took out his watch, held it in his hand, and handed it to Patrick, preventing Lake from seeing it.

“This is a birthday present my girlfriend gave me. I promised her that I would wear it when I went back to date her after completing the mission. Don’t lose it,” Xavier said in a low voice.
Patrick took the item and put it in his pocket.
Xavier looked at him eagerly, his voice low but with a roar, “What the hell am I supposed to say to him? There’s no such thing as a last word!“.
Juliette motioned him to come closer.
Navier leaned in, almost touching Juliette’s lips, when l’atrick pulled him back a little.
“Tell him this
Xavier frowned as soon as he heard the first sentence. He was sure to be killed by,
that.
He looked at Juliette, his expression clearly saying. Are you kidding me? Or are you sending me to die first?”
Patrick shot him a threatening look. Under this intense pressure, Xavier had no choice but to put his ear back to Juliette’s mouth and listen to her next sentence.
After finishing her instructions, Juliette looked at him and said softly, “Okay, you can go now.”
Xavier looked at Patrick. “Do you know everything she told me to say?”
Patrick thought for a moment and shook his head.
Xavier almost collapsed. He trusts Juliette that much?”
She didn’t have any actual combat experience, and the person they were facing was Luke, a ruthless killer.
You can’t be serious! Xavier broke down.
Patrick simply replied, “Go ahead.”
Xavier was speechless.
With that, he walked up to Luke. Jacob, who was beside Luke, pressed a gun against his lower back, a clear warning against
any trick.
As Xavier met Luke’s ga, several veins visibly bulged on his rugged face.
“What were my brother’s last words?” Luke asked. He could tell that Xavier was stalling.
He then pulled out his own gun and pressed it against Xavier’s temple.
“If you utter a single lie, I’ll kill you right here.”
Having seen his share of intense situations, Xavier wasn’t afraid. In fact, being held at gunpoint only fueled his anger, but he restrained himself.
“I wouldn’t lie! But you better brace yourself. Don’t cry here, Xavier said grutily.
A fierce look flashed across Luke’s eyes. What exactly did Liam say?”
