Return of the Crowned Heiress novel Chapter 533

The Russell family's subordinates who were left on the cliff were utterly stunned by what they had just witnessed.

It was just insane and absolutely reckless!

But there was no time to dwell on the matter. The explosives on the opposite cliff had to be dealt with immediately. Stanley's team didn't have enough manpower, and reinforcements were necessary.

"Let's move! Clear the explosives!"

Using the ropes, Stephan's men swung over to the opposite cliff. After meeting up with Stanley and his group, they were greeted by the sight of several bombs, their indicator lights blinking ominously.

These weren't ordinary bombs. They were remote-controlled!

This meant that whoever planted them could, from within a certain range, press a button and bring the entire cliff down. The falling rocks would bury everyone in the canyon below.

Who would do such a thing?

Stanley was already working on disarming the first bomb. His hands moved steadily, with precision and caution.

Even when under such high pressure and requiring complete focus, Stanley still managed to greet the reinforcements casually, "Oh, you're here? How's Mr. Russell? And the madam? Are they okay?"

"...They're fine," one of the men replied, though their eyes twitched at Stanley's nonchalance. He reminded Stanley, "Stanley, can you please stop talking and focus on the bomb? This is serious!"

"Oh, right." Stanley grinned, his expression suggesting that he would totally do something like this again next time.

Of course, they had long since gotten used to his demeanor and knew his competence. Otherwise, they would've bolted as far away as possible from this scene.

Once the teams regrouped, they shared information.
