"Our leader is dead! Someone has betrayed us!"
"Revenge! Avenge Captain Marco and our fallen brothers!"
"Revenge? Are you kidding me? That's Ali, the big boss?!"
"I'm backing out! Mr. Ali is not someone I can afford to mess with."
"I'm quitting too!"
"Count me in!"
"Fuck you cowards!"
"Sorry, Borkin, I have a family and children."
In the end, only two people chose to avenge the bodyguard captain.
Old Bryan pushed open the door to the luxurious master bedroom at the stern of the cruise ship and went inside.
"Daddy!"
Upon seeing him, Kim jumped out of bed in surprise and ran towards him.
" Kim, my baby."
Old Bryan opened his arms and hugged his daughter tightly. The feeling of having her back brought tears to the eyes of this tough man.
Reynolds watched this touching scene silently from the side.
At that moment, the monitoring Tablet he was holding suddenly emitted a 'beep beep' alarm sound.
Reynolds opened the book and saw two red dots walking towards the luxurious bedroom.
He quickly connected to the surveillance camera at the red dot location, and the footage showed two yacht bodyguards in black suits, carrying guns and moving quickly forward.
He opened his mouth to issue a warning, but a line of striking red text suddenly appeared on the Tablet screen.
[Do not issue warnings...]
Reynolds stared in astonishment, his mouth agape.
Want to win Kim Mills's heart? Then come and be the hero who saves the damsel in distress!
Reynolds frowned.
[There are only two people coming. You need to take them down the moment Mills and his daughter are ambushed...]
"No!"
Reynolds shook his head, his refusal unusually firm.
"I cannot allow Kim to be in any danger!"
[...]
[Idiot! Moron! Fool!!!]
Reynolds stared at the glaring red text, his face darkening as he turned off the monitor screen.
Then, he looked up and coughed lightly twice.
"Cough cough~"
" Kim, Mr. Mills!"
The father and daughter turned around when they heard the sound.
Old Bryan asked, "Something happened?"
Reynolds nodded, his expression very serious. "Two yacht guards have come over with guns."
Old Bryan immediately guessed the reason. "Looks like that bodyguard captain is quite popular."
Upon hearing this, Kim's expression instantly turned tense.
"Daddy?!"
Old Bryan patted her shoulder gently and comforted her, "Stay here, Daddy will be back soon."
Then he turned to Reynolds: "Protect her well, kid."
Reynolds pounded his chest and nodded emphatically.
Old Bryan pulled a pistol from his waist and turned to leave.
Kim looked worriedly toward the bedroom door, his hands clasped together, his fingertips turning slightly white.
Seeing this, Reynolds hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward.
He gently patted her shoulder.
"Mr. Mills is very capable, don't worry, Kim."
Kim shook his head silently, then suddenly reached out and hugged his arm.
" Kim, are you alright?"
Kim lowered his eyes and suddenly whispered, " Reynolds, I saw you on the plane to Paris..."
Reynolds froze for a moment, then became extremely panicked. " Kim, let me explain..."
Kim put his finger to his lips.
"No explanation needed..."
Thank you for everything you've done for me~
The girl stood on tiptoe and kissed the boy's cheek.
Reynolds ' face flushed red.
"Kay... Kim?!"
"You... I... we..."
He was rambling incoherently, unsure of how to express his current excitement.
At that moment, two short gunshots rang out.
Soon, the sound of unhurried footsteps came from outside the door.
Old Bryan pushed open the door and came in.
When she looked up, she saw her beloved daughter embracing and kissing someone passionately.
"..."
Old Bryan's face darkened slightly. " Kim, Reynolds ~"
The sudden sound pulled the two back from their passionate kiss.
"Ah!"
They shouted and were startled, scattering to the left and right as if ejected.
Kim blushed, lowered his head, and twisted his fingers, saying, "Daddy, I... I..."
Reynolds scratched his head, unsure what to say, and could only manage a sheepish smile.
Old Bryan remained remarkably calm. He simply said, "The cruise ship is docking; it's time for us to leave."
He then turned and left.
Kim thought his father was angry and felt uneasy.
At that moment, Reynolds quietly moved closer, boldly grabbed the girl's small hand, and held it firmly in his grasp.
So smooth... so soft...
Reynolds grinned so hard his eyes narrowed, as if he'd just eaten bee droppings.
Kim rolled his eyes at him and said irritably, "Hurry up and follow Daddy!"
"Oh, oh!" Reynolds grinned foolishly, grabbed the girl's hand, and chased after his future father-in-law.
Parallel World, Hong Kong.
Richard sat with his legs crossed in a coffee shop facing the street.
He chose a seat right by the window, where he could enjoy his coffee while admiring the unique street scenes of Hong Kong.
At that moment, the White Queen's furious voice rang out from her Comm Watch: "That idiot Reynolds is a complete moron! A moron!!!"
"Big data analysis isn't a panacea, Xiao Bai," Richard shook his head and chuckled. "Human emotions are incredibly complex. People often fall in love with someone because of a single word or a subtle gesture..."
"If Reynolds really did it your way, he would never have been able to win over Kim."
"At the very least, he can't get past Old Bryan."
"Hmph, love is such a hassle!" White Queen said sullenly, "It's not as fun as my Junior Wa in the online world~"
"I'm going to play games! Hmph!"
Richard shook his head helplessly. "This girl..."
He put down his coffee and turned to look out the window.
His deep gaze pierced through the towering buildings, 'looking' at a girl chained to a warehouse in a dilapidated building.
" Lucy Reynolds..."
"My counterpart and the female lead Alter Ego Lucy are actually siblings..."
"Tsk tsk, interesting~"
At this moment, Lucy, who was chained up, was in a drowsy state.
But then she suddenly jolted awake and instantly came to her senses.
"Who? Who is it?! Come out! Come out!"
The girl looked around in surprise and doubt, a look of fear on her face.
The Marvel Universe.
On the edge of the New Mexico desert, a Rainbow Bridge descends from the sky.
After the passage disappeared, a silver-colored metallic figure appeared out of thin air.
At the same time, inside the Mjolnir Base.
The energy monitoring device sounded a piercing alarm.
Base commander Phil Coulson quickly arrived with his team.
He looked at the real-time satellite photos and the location of the energy eruption displayed on the big screen and gasped in shock.
"Hiss~! It's the Destroyer of Asgard?!"
" Skye! Report to headquarters immediately!"
" The Destroyer of Asgard arrived on Earth three minutes ago!"
"Its target might be Thor the God of Thunder party, who are temporarily residing in the desert town of Haukem!"
"Requesting reinforcements!"
