As expected, the next moment, an explosion sounded not far away. Xander Instinctively protected Grace, and both of them fell to the ground.
“Watch the suspect. Don’t let him escape.” Immediately, several police officers guarded Darlen.
When Darien saw this, he smiled sinisterly and skillfully unlocked the handcuffs in his hands. As more explosions sounded, he disappeared in front of everyone's eyes.
The explosions continued one after another, but they were always at a certain distance.
When the explosions finally ceased, thick smoke filled the air. Grace suddenly realized what had happened. “Where’s Darien? Where did he go?”
People then noticed that Darien, who had just been handcuffed, had disappeared right under their noses. “Oh no, he escaped!”
At this moment, Xander took out a walkie-talkie and said coldly, “Block all exits and make sure to catch him.” Yes, Mr. Xander.”
Xander reassured Grace. “Don’t worry. All exits here have already been blocked. Besides the police, many of my family’s men are also here.”
But Grace was still on tenterhooks. “Darien is so cunning. He managed to escape right under our noses.” “Don't worry. The wheels of justice grind slowly but surely. He won't get far.”

Upon hearing this, Grace finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Darien laughed.
Looking up at Grace, he said, “Ms. Lewis, although your family is prestigious, you shouldn’t make enemies everywhere. Be careful. One day, you might fall and become a public enemy. | look forward to that day.”
Grace’s face turned grim and unpleasant. “But it’s a pity. You won't live to see that day.”
Undaunted, Darien said, “People like us who are ready to die anytime have nothing to fear.”
“Cut the nonsense and behave yourself,” the officer guarding him warned sternly.
Then, he looked at Grace with great respect. “Ms. Lewis, thank you for your cooperation. Thanks to you, we were able to crack this major human trafficking case. As for the suspect, we'll take him back to Frenda for the trial.”
Grace nodded. “Thank you.”
Darien was escorted onto the plane, with police officers guarding him throughout. After the
After the police force gradually left the small island by plane, only Grace and Xander were left.
Watching the direction the plane disappeared, Grace pressed her lips together, lost in thought.
Xander comforted her. “Don’t worry, he’ll definitely face legal sanctions.”
Grace hummed and nodded. She wouldn't feel sad for people like Darien, who committed. countless crimes, even if he died. “It's all thanks to you this time, Xander.”
Otherwise, if she had been working alone, she wouldn’t have been able to deal with Darien so quickly.
