Chapter 875
Azalea quickly said, "Dad, hurry up and give him back his phone."
It was only then that Sirius waved at his men, telling them to retrieve the phone.
Not a while later, Eugene finally got his phone back. He tried to call Olivia to inform her he was safe, but her phone
was turned off. Well, there's nothing I can do about that.
After seeing that Eugene had gotten his phone back, Hayes offered, "Come to my place. You should relax."
"It's alright. I need to look into the case. It's been a few days since I've come here, after all."
Hayes then put his hand on Eugene's shoulder. "I'll help you with the investigation. It's not every day you're in
Nambahd. You have to come over."

back of his head. The instinct inside him told him that it was a gun.
Right then, Sirius growled, "You did this to my daughter, and you've ruined her. Do you think I'll let you leave just like
that?"
Eugene stood still all the while.
Hayes hissed, "What are you doing, Sirius?"
With agony in his voice, Sirius demanded, "Hayes, she's your sister and our kingdom's princess. Are you just going
to overlook this matter and let Eugene ruin her?"
Hayes answered icily, "You set him up first. This is just his retaliation. Do you expect him to do nothing while you try
to trap him? Preposterous. Put that down, or I will make sure you die horribly."
"I'll drag him down with me before that," Sirius spoke with a hint of insanity in his voice.
And that scared his daughter. "Dad, you're going to kill me again if you do this. Let him go right now!" she
screamed at the top of her lungs. "I don't need your help. Not in this way!"
Sirius looked at his daughter and hesitated for one split second.
However, that was all Eugene needed. He turned around and held Sirius' hand. And then, he pushed it upward with
force enough to dislocate his wrist. Sirius' bone cracked, and a shot was fired.
Everyone looked in the direction of the gunshot in alarm. Everything turned blurry for a moment as the screen
shook.
Fear grasped Olivia's heart as well. Her heart skipped a beat, and she wanted to rush over to see if Eugene was
okay. However, her legs felt like lead. No matter what she did, she couldn't move. Her wide eyes trained on the

screen as she waited for Eugene to show up once more.
A long while later, he finally reappeared. She heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing that he wasn't injured, and time
seemed to start moving again.
That gunshot only hit the ceiling. Nobody was hurt, but it shocked everyone. The crowd ran out of the palace to
avoid getting caught in the crossfire. The drama was great, but they wouldn't want to risk their lives for it.
All the cops went to work; some evacuated the people, while some came to their king's rescue. The lobby instantly
fell into chaos. Hayes' troops had readied themselves for the battle. The soldiers on both sides were armed, and a
war would surely ensue if either side had made one wrong move. Ultimately, this battle was inevitable.
Meanwhile, Eugene finally managed to capture Sirius. He snatched the gun and pointed it at Sirius' head.
Sirius' retaliation came as a shock for Hayes, and he boomed, "Are you trying to commit a coup, Sirius?"
Azalea quickly pleaded, "Hayes, please, show mercy. He's only trying to help me. Please, show mercy."
