Chapter 1665
That night, she had managed to sleep fairly well in the first half.
However, after midnight, as the latter part of the night approached, Chloe Collins was repeatedly jolted awake by the shaking of the bed.
At first, she thought it was just a misconception within a dream, but after a while, when a man picked her up, she realized this was not a dream.
The lights came on, and she saw Alexander Foster getting dressed.
And she was already clothed herself, thanks to Alexander Foster’s efforts just moments ago.
"It’s started again, put on your shoes, I’ll take you downstairs."
He was very calm and swift, not panicked at all.
Chloe nodded and also dressed as quickly as possible, donned her shoes, grabbed both of their cell phones, passports, and other items, and then hurried out, hand in hand with him.
Just as they reached the doorway, someone began knocking violently on the door.
The visitor was Maurice Willis.
"Boss, it’s not good, they’ve broken through!"
Alexander Foster’s expression turned serious, "Come with me."
Maurice Willis followed the couple, zipping up his clothes and trousers as they went.
"I just asked a few people who ran back from the main gate to find their families. They said they saw with their binoculars that a large army was heading this way, driving various tanks and even dropping bombs. They figure that our side won’t hold out tonight, the military is rapidly assembling people."
As they spoke, the trio exited the elevator.
Alexander Foster made his way to the general’s room door; it was the general’s call that had awoken him from his sleep.
The two had just entered when the general said, "Mr. Foster, we will send a squad to escort the two of you out of here. There’s a backdoor with a small path that’s temporarily safe. You should leave quickly."
"A hundred miles from here, there will be a plane to pick you up. In this area you are too conspicuous. Our planes coming here would be easy targets for their attacks."
"This is the directive from our superiors, in line with the wishes of the President of your country, as well as our own desire. You’ve given such significant help to Beraenia, we must ensure your safety and get you back to Grearon safely. Please cooperate with our actions."
Alexander Foster spoke a few words to him, implying that he would cooperate, then turned to Chloe Collins to calm her, "Timmy’s matter, we can only postpone."
Chloe didn’t want to trouble him and knew they must leave now, so she nodded.
The escort consisted of local troops and support teams, including James Cunningham and others.
In less than half an hour, a total of five vehicles quietly left through the back door, departing from the Safe Zone.
Not long after they left, the mutated people’s army began their siege.
The battle fully ignited.
The night was thick, and the five vehicles sped along a dirt road, the uneven surface making the ride uncomfortable for those inside.
Chloe’s car was in the middle, protected by other vehicles in front and behind.
Sounds of intense combat filled their ears, even from a great distance, they could still hear it.
Her hands clenched tightly together, palms sweating.
Alexander Foster’s hand wrapped around her shoulder, silently covering her ears.
Just then, the vehicle made an abrupt stop, and the two of them lurched forward.
Chloe looked ahead, the lighting dim; she could only see the rear of the vehicle in front of them.
Suddenly—
With a bang, a face appeared against her car window!
Quickly, the guards got out of the car to check the situation.
She and Alexander Foster exchanged a glance, rolled down the window, and she saw outside, a local man being pinned to the ground by James Cunningham.
It was a man.
He was dressed in local attire, with numerous bags hanging from his hands.
Apart from him, more and more people began to emerge in the surrounding area.
