Chapter 636: Safe Return Home
What does it mean to have teammates like pigs? Damien and his team had been waiting for an opportunity to find Terrence and Little Lucky and take Little Lucky back. Now, with the sound of gunfire, the entire airport was in chaos. The royal guards imposed martial law, sealing off the entire airport. If they didn't retreat quickly, they would all be captured.
Damien commanded through his earpiece, "Everyone disguise as passengers and blend into the crowd to retreat. If you can't retreat, fight your way out. If anyone gets caught by the police, end it yourself."
In this mission, Damien was in command, and everyone had to obey his orders. They quickly retreated. All entrances and exits of the airport were sealed. To divert the police's attention, members of Celestial Alliance fought their way out through different exits, injuring officers and driving away amidst gunfire from all directions. The entire airport was in turmoil.
Places like airports are not equipped to handle such emergencies. In situations like this, people were flustered and lacked the ability to control the situation.
As Terrence predicted, within two hours, news of the airport riot made international headlines.
...
Auroraville.
Meredith also saw the news. The videos released on major social media platforms about the airport were shocking and heart-wrenching. Worried that something might have happened to Terrence, she quickly called him.
At that moment, Terrence was on a plane and couldn't receive any calls. After the airport riot, Darcy DuMont arranged for a private jet from the French royal family to bring Terrence and his team back while he stayed in Japan to handle the aftermath.
Unable to reach Terrence, Meredith was anxious. She immediately contacted Darcy DuMont and learned that Terrence and his team were safe and on their way back.
Relieved, Meredith hurried to the airport to pick them up.
On the other side, Reginald was almost furious enough to spit blood. He had sent them to bring back Little Lucky, but instead, they caused trouble between two countries. Now Celestial Alliance was globally wanted.
This put Celestial Alliance directly on the hot seat. Over the years, many assassins from Celestial Alliance had already been globally wanted for their deeds. Now Japan, wanting to prove its innocence, dispatched significant police forces to hunt them down. France also had a reason to capture them.
With both countries issuing bounty orders, things got even more chaotic as other organizations also started causing trouble for Celestial Alliance.
Reginald was so enraged that he shot the sniper who fired accidentally and then led the others in retreating from Japan.
At over fifty years old, Reginald felt deeply troubled. It was his first time returning to his homeland only to be hunted by his countrymen. For a moment, he didn't know where he belonged or where his home truly was.
The airport riot also disrupted John Wilkinson's plans; how could he capture Reginald now? John Wilkinson received orders from his superiors to withdraw from Japan and cancel the capture mission.
Terrence arrived in Auroraville with his daughter at nightfall. Little Lucky was already asleep in his arms, resting peacefully and sweetly.
Meredith waited for them at the airport exit. When she saw Terrence's figure, she couldn't help but tear up.
"Terrence, Rowan," Meredith walked briskly towards them.
Terrence also walked quickly towards Meredith. "Meredith."
Seeing Little Lucky asleep in Terrence's arms, Meredith cried tears of joy. "Let me hold her."
Terrence handed their daughter to Meredith. The joy of reunion overwhelmed her like a tidal wave.
Meredith kissed her daughter several times. "Rowan, Mommy missed you so much, my darling. Terrence, Rowan is really back."
Terrence said, "Reginald didn't harm Rowan at all. After following him for so long, I found that Reginald liked Rowan very much and took good care of her. Before coming back, Dad had a doctor check her thoroughly; everything is fine."
