My Accidental Husband Is My Revenge Partner - Chapter 83

Chapter 83: Familiar
Immediately, everyone started running for their lives. The explosion had happened at the entrance of the building.

Men carrying weapons immediately infiltrated, but as soon as they stepped foot into the lounge, bullets were fired at them.

It turned out that the buyers had their little weapons on them for protection. Xavier wasn’t even surprised by that realization. The girls looked shaken up as they bent their heads low to avoid the bullets.

Five men carrying weapons came over and tried to take the girls away. They didn’t waste time thinking if the people were nice or not. They needed to escape from there before either of them got shot.

Xavier followed behind them, his eyes on the top where he had seen the red-suited man, but he found the place empty.

“Shit!” He cursed under his breath.

Reaching the front where there was a van parked, Maxwell immediately handed Xavier a gun.

The girls looked at him with curiosity. He had just bought them with a large amount of money and now, he was going to attack the bad people.

They wanted to ask him about his identity but found the time not so perfect.

“Get them out of here now,” Xavier ordered.

Xavier grabbed a mask and quickly wore it before returning inside the building. He passed the bodies of the security men who were supposed to guard the front entrance of the building.

Xavier headed upstairs, towards the place where he had seen the red-suit man. Indeed that spot was empty, but he found a door on the other side.

Opening the door, he was ready to shoot a bullet but didn’t find anybody, not a single soul. But he did find a staircase leading down. Immediately, he followed it, high on alert.

Surprisingly, the stairs led to two elevators. Xavier had ordered his men to secure both the front and back door, there was no way he was getting out without being seen by them unless he was going to the rooftop.

Immediately, Xavier entered one of the elevators.

The elevator door opened after reaching the top only for Xavier to see both the red suit and gray suit men about to board a helicopter.

“Don’t move,” he ordered, pointing his gun at the person. It was just the both of them plus the pilot who was still in the helicopter, waiting for them to get in. “Turn around,” he added.

Xavier felt an unfamiliar feeling when he made eye contact with the red-suit man earlier. His gaze was familiar but Xavier didn’t know where he had seen such eyes before.

The suited man turned his mask still on his face.

“Well, look at how we have here. Isn’t it the great X whose arrival we have been anticipating, hmm?” Asked the red suit, a smirk on his lips which Xavier couldn’t see since he was wearing a mask.

“Take off your mask,” Xavier ordered, glaring at the person.

The red-suit man stared at Xavier before his eyes landed on the suit he was wearing. Immediately he recognized the suit and the person who was wearing it earlier before they got attacked.

“Xavier…” the red suit man called, which caught Xavier off guard. “So you are X? That was unexpected,” he added.

The gray suit man stared at his boss, also surprised by what he had called X.

“Who would have thought you were X? Xavier…X, now I get it. You used the first initial of your name—-”

“Shut up!” Xavier snapped. He felt the person before him was messing with him. “Take off your mask and don’t make me repeat myself.”

Xavier took a threatening step, but the man didn’t look fazed at all.

“It’s obvious you don’t recognize me, but there’s no way I’m taking off my mask, Xavier. Now!”

Several men wearing black suits came out of nowhere, holding Xavier at gunpoint.

“Honestly, I never expected to see you here today. It didn’t cross my mind at all. But now that we’ve met after so many years, what should I do to you?” Asked the man.

A frown formed on Xavier’s as he tried to understand what the man was saying.

From the way he spoke, it seemed they had met before. But without seeing his face, Xavier couldn’t identify him. Forgetting that, he faced the current matter at hand—he was outnumbered but not for long. He heard the elevator ding open and some of his men came out, standing behind him as they pointed their weapons at the enemies.

Earlier, Xavier had informed them about going to the rooftop and asked for a backup immediately.

“Oh, you even brought your people here,” said the man in the red suit.

The one in the gray suit nudged the red one.

“Boss, we need to get out of here,” he said.

“Take off your mask and don’t make me repeat myself,” Xavier threatened. He wouldn’t want to shoot at the red one in this situation because he might be important to him later.

“I won’t,” said the one in the red suit. “Shoot.”

The one in the red suit turned, about to leave while his men followed behind him with cautious steps, their guns still pointed at Xavier and his men.

Xavier’s men waited for him to give them the go signal, but he stood rooted on the ground like a statue.

Xavier didn’t wait anymore. He didn’t like the way the one in the red suit was messing around with him. There was only one person who messed with him in such a way and he didn’t want to believe he was that person.

“Fire!” Xavier ordered, already taking out three men.

The red one turned and found Xavier running towards him, but he didn’t want to be caught. So he ran towards the helicopter. When he was about to climb, he felt a piercing pain in his leg—Xavier had just shot him.

“Fuck!” He cursed.

The one in the gray suit immediately helped him as they got into the helicopter and fled away.

Xavier fired at the helicopter with rage but the bullets didn’t do much damage to the helicopter.

He turned and found all the men in black suits already dead.

He took off his mask and cursed under his breath.

“You had better not be who I think you are.”
