Chapter 151

The Russo family had made their peace with the Santoris family, but both of their families still had many enemies, and today one of them was trying to assassinate Nicholas. His driver was skilled, but he was no match for the two cars that tried to run them off the road. They veered off an unmarked exit and hit a rock, immobilizing their vehicle, so Nicholas, his driver, and bodyguards decided to split up, to throw them off his scent. 

He called for backup and started walking deeper into a remote wooded area at least a half-hour from the city, it would take time for his men to get there, so he needed to hide.

Adelyn had been filming a periodic drama in the same area for a late-night scene when she saw a familiar figure walking down the road.

"Hello there! Were you at Hotel X a couple of nights ago?" she asked as the driver stopped the car in front of Nicholas.

"No," he answered. Which had her do a double-take, and look at him more closely.
