Tinder asked the bodyguards to stop and took the killer out of the sandpit. The sand sank, and the other four killers were buried in the pit forever.

The bodyguard pushed the killer, and he knelt in front of Tinder. Tinder stepped on his shoulder with his sandy shoes. He stepped on it so hard that the killer was in so much pain.

"Tell us who sent you!"

"I can't talk now. What will I do if I talk, and you kill me?"

The killer made sense. If he didn't talk, he would have the leverage. But if he did, Tinder would kill him whenever they liked.

"You don't have a choice. Talk or die."

Tinder then pointed at one of Evan's helicopters that parked not far away. He said," If you talk, I'll send you to a safe place. But if you don't, we can find it another way. It's just a matter of time."

The killer hesitated. Tinder was right. Evan's power in A Country was so huge that no party could challenge and question him. If the assassin operation was in A Country instead of H Country, the killer would be sure no one would dare to do it, nor succeed.

His only hope was to help Evan get away from here.

But if Evan decided to kill him, he had to admit to the bad luck.

The killer analyzed the situation and said," It's Charles Meyer."

Evan frowned. Was it Dr. Meyer?

What a surprising answer!

Avery thought she heard the killer wrong. She walked closer.

The killer just said Charles Meyer. Which Charles Meyer?

Tinder asked the question, Avery was puzzled," Which Charles Meyer?"

"The Doctor Meyer in the Meyer family."

Boom! The killer's words were set off a bomb in Avery's mind. All she could see was blackness. Her last hope was destroyed.

Dr. Charles? Charles Meyer?

Was it really him?

Why would he send killers to go after Evan?

No way!

Charles went to a lot of trouble to cure her daughter. And it was him that said only the Vando in the desert could heal her daughter.

So, Charles must know Evan would come to the desert for Vando. Then he could get rid of him?

Charles must know it was difficult to kill Evan in A Country. But he had a better chance to do it in the desert where the environment was harsh?

So was this a trap?

The Vando was a bait for lure Evan in the desert, so Charles could send killers to kill him.

No wonder Charles gave Avery the special glue knowing Evan had changed his identity.

Avery shook her head as hard as she could. She couldn't think straight. Charles was the one that she trusted the most. He was humble, elegant, and polite. How could he order the hit?

Avery charged over with her mini pistol," How dare you lie to us?"

"I'm not lying...It's really Charles Meyer."

Avery still wouldn't believe it. She put the pistol against the killer's temple," I'll kill you if you keep lying to us."

Avery didn't realize how badly her hand shook. But she really needed to hear another name.

She didn't want the guy to be Charles.

But the killer said," I'm not lying. It's really Charles Meyer. He would give whoever killed Evan 1 billion dollars."

Avery sat down on the ground, and her pistol fell too. She almost had a breakdown. And she was too shocked that she couldn't think calmly.

Why was it, Charles?

How could it be him?

Avery denied it in her mind for countless times. But every time she denied it, the more certain she was.

Evan turned his look at once. Avery always turned like this when it came to Charles Meyer.

Did he forget about whom she married to?

Evan was about to pull Avery up. But the killer beat him to it. He suddenly picked up the pistol and held it against Avery's temple.

Avery was still shocked by the news. She was held hostage by the killer before she could come back.

Avery suddenly froze. It was her fault. She would not let her guard down if she wasn't too shocked.

Her neck was pinched by the killer. The pistol on her head was hot. It fell on the ground, and sand passed the heat to the gun. It was burning hot when it was held against her head.

"Move! Do what I say, or you'll die."

"I'm just a maid. It's no use keeping me the hostage."

"I'm not stupid," the killer sneered," Why would a maid have such a nice gun? I'm afraid you hide your true identity like Evan. I'm curious about your true look since you make Evan worry so much."

Avery bit her lips. The killers were trained to read micro facial expressions. They knew about psychology.

So he wouldn't fall for it.

"What? Don't you have much to say? Play along. I won't do anything to you as long as I leave here. But if you do anything, I'll kill you. I've got nothing to lose."

The killer shouted at Evan," Move back and let the men come down the helicopter. Or I'll shoot her!"

Evan's look was aggressive. He asked the bodyguards to lower down weapons.

The killer wanted to fly away. His intent was clear.

But he couldn't tell if the killer released Avery before he got aboard or tried to kill her after he was safe.

But whatever, it was not time to let the guard down.

Seeing Evan and others move back, the killer pushed Avery to move to the helicopter.

Avery had to move back.

Tinder was asked by Evan to stop Android doing anything reckless. He stepped back as his bodyguards. The more he stared at the killer's pistol, the more familiar he felt.

He remembered the pistol. Evan sent Tinder to give it to Avery. He gave it to Avery on his own.

He would not make a mistake.

But why would that maid have Avery's pistol?

And why was the maid so shocked knowing Charles ordered the hit?

Did she know Doctor Meyer?

That was such a coincidence.

The questions bothered Tinder, and he tried to find an answer. When he came to, the killer held Avery and moved to the helicopter...
