Chapter 1691: We Don't Want You to Fall Off a Cliff and Die

Athena Linton had just walked to the gatehouse entrance when the soldier on duty stopped her. The order from the leader was personally delivered, and the soldier dared not be negligent in the slightest.

“Why are you blocking me?”

Suddenly stopped by the soldier, Athena angrily reached out to push the soldier blocking her, but he didn’t budge an inch.

“The leader has ordered, please cooperate.”

The soldier raised his right hand, gesturing for Athena to follow him into the gatehouse.

If she doesn’t cooperate, he doesn’t mind roughing up a girl.

“The leader?”

Upon hearing the soldier mention the word “leader,” Athena immediately thought of Easton Holmes, and angrily started rebuking, “Easton Holmes! How can you turn against your own? I’m your sister, yet you side with an outsider.”

Hearing Athena directly call Easton Holmes’ name, the soldier was stunned. When he received the leader’s call earlier, he thought some bad person had infiltrated the military zone.

He was worried about what punishment he might face, but unexpectedly the plot took a big turn.

The girl the leader wants to control isn’t some villain; she’s the leader’s sister.

Is the leader’s sister trying to run away from home?

“Comrade! Please cooperate.”

Now that he knew her real identity, the soldier’s tone was much softer than before, and his attitude changed significantly.

Athena already felt a stomach full of anger, and now being treated like this by Easton Holmes, her rage grew even more.

“Move out of my way, I need to leave, let me tell you, if you dare delay my business, you’ll be in serious trouble.”

She reached out to push the soldier, but he still stood firm, blocking her way, making her so angry and anxious that she raised her foot to kick him, “I said move, did you hear me!”

Screech!

At this moment, the piercing sound of brakes came from behind, followed closely by Easton Holmes’ sharp voice, “Athena Linton! Do you think this is where you can cause trouble?”

As Easton drove over, he saw Athena and the soldier tugging from afar, and instantly got angry.

Both Athena and the soldier were startled by the voice, standing there dumbfounded, forgetting how to react for a moment.

“Return to your position!”

Easton stepped out of his car and came over, commanding the soldier to return to his duty position. Once the soldier was back, he grabbed Athena with one hand.

Regardless of her anger, he forcibly pushed her into the car.

“You better behave; otherwise, I’ll put you in confinement.”

Having warned and threatened Athena, Easton slammed the car door shut before going around to the other side to get in.

Athena’s face turned green with rage, but seeing Easton’s stern face, she knew he wasn’t joking.

Though her heart was filled with anger, frustration, and urgency, she didn’t dare say a word, knowing her brother could actually follow through; she couldn’t provoke him.

On the way back, the more Athena thought, the more she felt aggrieved, leading to tears of grievance and sadness streaming down her face.

“You all do nothing but bully me; it’s one thing for outsiders to bully me, but you and Sister Goddess bully me too, as do my parents.” Remembering the grievances half a year ago, Athena felt extremely uncomfortable and, not daring to lash out at Easton, vented and lamented to the front windshield.

Hearing her lament, Easton remained calm, “We’re not bullying you; we’re doing this for your own good. We don’t want you to fall off a cliff to your death.”
