Gritting her teeth to restrain herself from groaning in pain, Carla sniggered. "Zayn Giblo, great one! See how hard-hearted all of you from the Giblo family are!"
"Carla…" Zayn was about to explain to her, yet she snatched his gun and pointed at Solara.
A panic-stricken Solara had the heart to pull Jombo over as her shield.
Zayn's heart skipped a beat, and he shoved Carla away hastily at the eleventh hour. Subsequently, Carla missed a shot. Furthermore, her arm was even scraped by the bullet from Solara's gunshot.
"Zayn Giblo!" At the peak of fury, Carla pointed her gun at Zayn and fired a shot at him right away. As a result, his arm was shot.
The bodyguards of the Giblo family lifted their guns and aimed at Carla instinctively.
"All of you, back off!" Zayn bellowed at once.
All his bodyguards stepped backward and dared not move at all.
On the other hand, the female bodyguards of the Lierger family lifted their guns and huddled over them.
When the situation descended into complete chaos, Solara was about to flee by holding Jombo hostage. At that very moment, an ear-piercing shriek from the eagle sounded.
The next moment, Dori the eagle darted toward Solara like an arrow released from the bow. A quick-witted Solara aimed her gun at it and fired.
One side of the eagle's wings was shot, yet it continued to dart toward Solara and attack her. As a result, she dropped her gun when it flapped its wings and struck against her. Waving both her hands frantically, she tried to shoo the eagle away.
Meanwhile, Jombo's legs gave way when Solara let go of him and collapsed on the floor. Zayn dashed toward him hastily to help him up.
In the meantime, Carla dashed toward Solara and the eagle. She yelled out, "Dori, move aside!"
In a split second, the eagle flapped its wings and flew away.
Bang! Bang! Carla aimed at Solara's knees respectively and fired twice.
Solara fell on her knees in an instant. Nevertheless, she supported her body with her arms and shrieked with laughter.
"What are you laughing at?" Carla narrowed her eyes and asked coldly.
"Did you hear the siren?" Solara's lips contorted into a creepy snicker. "There is an alarm system in my body. When I'm shot, it will automatically trigger the system and alert the police. Of course, I'm not willing to go to jail. Even so, I would rather be imprisoned instead of being shot dead by you. After all, getting a haven is the most important thing for me at the moment. As long as I can stay alive, I'm sure as hell that I will have the chance to escape! Carla Lierger, you will not be able to capture me!"
"I will finish you off now!" Carla pulled the trigger and was about to fire.
"Don't fire!" Zayn stopped her. "Just hand her over to the police."
"I will shoot you at once if you dare to stop me!" Carla glared at him with murderous intent in her eyes, and she was unmovable by his words.
"Carla Lierger, do you think you are still in Erihal? You will be charged for murdering here." Solara continued to provoke her, "If you kill me now, you will have to be prepared to rot in jail!"
"You deserve to repent your sins with your life! Go to h_ll!" Blinded by anger, Carla pulled her trigger impetuously.
"Wait a minute!" Jombo yelled out abruptly.
"Grandpa…" Zayn called out anxiously.
"Can you let me have a few words with her? Please…" Jombo pleaded with Carla.
"Just one minute!" Carla replied coldly without putting down her gun.
At the same time, all the bodyguards from the Lierger family huddled over them and pointed their guns simultaneously at Solara.
It was a sure thing that Solara would meet her end at any moment.
"You kept on asking me why I tended to bias toward your brother, although you are more outstanding than him since young. Do you know why I would rather nurture him and refuse to let you manage Giblo Group?" On the brink of tears, Jombo looked at Solara sorrowfully. "I sense that you are overambitious and materialistic since young. Apart from that, you have been eyeing the inheritance right of the Giblo family. Thus, I foresee that your senses will be easily prevailed by your greed for power and social status. That's why I tended to stand in your way most of the time. It never crosses my mind that this will trigger your rebellious nature."
Solara snapped at him impatiently, "Don't waste time lamenting on this! If you still treat me as your daughter, get them to let go of me and send me away from Aymo City!"
Jombo uttered bitterly with a self-deprecating smile. "Since this is my sin, I should be the one to put it to an end."
