Being pushed suddenly, Jim fell straight back to the seat behind him.

It hurt so much that he grimaced in pain.

"F*ck! Who was the one who pushed..."

Before he could finish his words, he was shocked by Monique's glare.

Monique looked completely different from before.

She looked so unapproachable that the cold look in her eyes could make anyone's blood run cold.

Petrified, Jim sat back silently.

There were police officers from the other side coming towards them as they noticed their vehicle's abnormal behavior.

Nelson pretended to attempt an escape by turning the steering wheel. It was just that the police were faster.

As he expected, the police reached them and stopped their car, saying, "Who are you? Don't you know that there's an event here today? Why are you still driving here? Show me your license!" Nelson gave Monique an inquiring look, and she looked back at him too.

Then, she threw him a driving license and said, "Use this!"

He tried his best to stay calm. After that, he rolled down the window, and looked at the policeman with a smile.

"We're just passing through. We're not doing this on purpose."

The policeman took over the license and observed it, asking, "Is this you?"

"Yes!" said Nelson while nodding, but he secretly winked at the policeman. He was uncertain if the policeman had managed to take the hint or not, but the police handed the license back to him. "Thankfully, no one got hurt. You guys have to be careful next time. Be on your way now!"

Nelson took back the license, and started to drive away shortly afterwards.

It was not until they were almost a hundred meters away from the police that everyone in the car let out a sigh of relief.

Nelson held the steering wheel tightly as he wondered what his actions could be if the policeman had failed to perceive anything suspicious.

"Miss Monique, is your hand injured?" asked Frida, who was sitting in the back seat of the car.

Nelson glanced at Monique's hand. The back of her hand had probably hit the inside of the car when she tried to stop Jim just then, and there was a bruise on it.

Monique waved her hand and said, "It's okay!"

The subordinates behind her saw that she was not as exasperated as she was just then, therefore they started to whisper among each other.

"Miss Monique, why did you stop Jim just now? If we simply drove through just now, it would have saved us the trouble of being questioned by the police. If they start to suspect us, well be in great trouble!" Hearing their words, Monique instantly became fierce.

"Shut up! I have told you that we are evil, but we can't hurt children."

The subordinate, who had stood up for Jim, shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and exchanged a look with his colleagues. To them, Monique being compassionate was the biggest joke they had ever heard. Meanwhile, Nelson was remaining silent.

He was thinking about the situation just then. What was the policeman doing at the moment? Did he notice Nelson's hints or not?

As he was thinking about that, he noticed a few cars behind them through the rear-view mirror.

The cars seemed to be very low-profile, but they moved rapidly and were about to surround their car in no time.

Nelson's initial surprise was soon replaced by delight. He wondered if they were the police. Just as he was thinking about that, Jim had also noticed that something was amiss.

"Miss Monique, what's the matter with those cars?"

Compared to the others, Monique was much more alert. She cast a glance behind and immediately frowned. She said, "It's the police! Hurry, speed up!"

Upon hearing that, Nelson pretended to step harshly on the gas pedal, but in reality, he only accelerated the car a bit.

It didn't take long for the police car to catch up with their car.

While the police were approaching, they heard the police sirens. Soon, they were surrounded by the police from three directions. There was near to zero possibility to escape. On the other side, Naomi and Charlie happened to pass by and saw this scene.

Originally, they were heading forward at high speed. However, when she rubbernecked out of curiosity at the scene, where there were police chasing after someone, she spotted Nelson. She was astounded and hurriedly called out to Charlie, "Turn around!"

Charlie was also startled. He looked around and made a rapid turn. After that, he drove towards them as well.

As a result, Nelson, Monique and her subordinates were being encircled from all four directions.

The people in the car were like cats on hot bricks. They shouted in unison.

They shouted in unison, "Bulldoze through them!"

Monique didn't stop them, and she was no longer as kind as how she had been just then when she said that they shouldn't hurt children.

Nelson blinked his eyes. Before he could think of what to do, the car in front was already hurtling towards them.

He was totally staggered at the sight of Naomi, who was sitting in the front passenger seat of that car. He subconsciously stepped on the brakes without hesitation.

With a loud screech of brakes, their car stopped within ten centimetres of Naomi and Charlie's car.

The people behind Nelson shouted in despair, "You're crazy! We're done for, we're absolutely done for! Now, we really have no way to run!"

On the other hand, Monique looked at Nelson composedly.

At that moment, Monique's subordinates intended to open the door and run out in haste, but it was too late.

The police, Charlie and his underlings had already surrounded their car and all of them pointed their weapons at them.

A policeman shouted, "Those who are in the car, freeze!"

"Miss Monique, what should we do?"

All of her subordinates, who had been complaining a while ago, were stupefied. They were all pinning their last hopes on Monique.

On the contrary, Monique remained collected.

She smiled faintly at Nelson and said, "This is your desired result, isn't it?"

There was a heavy silence in the car. After a long time, he nodded lightly and answered, "Yes!"

Monique gave a rueful smile and said, "At the end of the day, I still come to this miserable end because of men like you."

For a moment, there was a touch of sorrow in her eyes.

Furrowing his brow, Nelson said, "You lied to me and beguiled my mother into following your orders. You should have thought of such an outcome when you decided to manipulate us. After all, every bad guy will get their punishment sooner or later. If my manipulation didn't backfire on you now, it'd still happen eventually."

Monique laughed sardonically, saying, "Well..."

"Bad guy? Who wants to be born as a bad guy? Do you think I'm willing to be a bad guy? It's just that this world is so cruel, and I had no choice!"

After that, she took a deep look at Nelson.

"You really look similar to him."

Nelson was baffled and asked, "What did you say?"

Before Monique could reply to him, Jim had already begun to chastise him.

"Miss Monique, there's no need to waste your time talking to him. Let me just end this ungrateful b*stard's life!"

As he was speaking, he picked up a gun and pressed it against the back of Nelson's head.

The sound of bullets being loaded could be heard.

While in imminent danger of being killed, Nelson subconsciously looked in the direction of Naomi's car. Naomi just happened to get out of the car and was walking towards them.
