When Victor Morgan and his men raced to the research base, Ron, who had already set up an ambush, gave the order to open fire. The two sides immediately erupted into a fierce firefight.
Their firearms roared like savage beasts.
The battle instantly escalated to a fever pitch, brutal and merciless.
Hearing the thunderous sounds of battle outside, Vera Warner quickened her pace, desperate to escape.
At the same time, her reliance on and love for the man outside grew even deeper.
Although the defenses were formidable, Victor Morgan had brought his elite forces.
Half an hour later, the tide of the battle turned. Ron's forces began to crumble and retreat.
"Damn it, how could this be happening? No retreat! Don't you dare retreat! Hold the line! Defend!"
Ron was clearly on the verge of a complete breakdown. He had been so close to having Vera for the rest of his life, but now everything was falling apart. How could he possibly accept this?
