Chapter 260

---- Chapter 260 The gunshot exploded through the room with a deafening crack. The bullet tore straight into the man's skull. In an instant, he collapsed, his massive body hitting the ground with a heavy thud. He lifted his head and glanced at the doorway where Giselle stood with the smoking gun. However, before he could even register what had happened, he was dead. Susanna shrieked at the horrifying sight, clutching her arms and shrinking against the head of the bed, trembling violently. It was the first time Giselle had ever killed someone. She hadn't expected her aim to be so precise.

Looking at the customer, who was lying in a pool of his own blood, she wasn't shaken or frantic; instead, she was unnervingly calm, as if she had just taken out an enemy on a battlefield "Giselle, you..." Susanna's face went pale with fear when she realized Giselle had killed someone with a gun. "Is he... dead? You killed him, didn't you?" Giselle tucked the gun back into her clothes and calmly walked over to the bed. While helping Susanna dress, she said, "Don't worry about anything else and get out of here!" However, this wasn't a silent ambush; it was a gunshot fired in plain sight.

The gunshot had already echoed throughout the building, startling everyone inside, particularly Orin. ---- He was on his way out to handle something else, but the moment he heard the gunshot, he rushed upstairs and burst into Giselle's room in no time. His eyes widened in shock when he noticed the customer lying dead on the floor and Giselle helping Susanna out the door. "What happened?" he asked hoarsely. There was no way she could hide something this big. Giselle pulled Susanna behind her and hastily spun a lie. "This young lady was terrified and refused to give in.

The customer pulled out a gun to kill her, but he ended up shooting himself." The man had been shot in the back of the head, and Giselle's evasive gaze gave her away. There was no fooling Orin. He seized her wrist and demanded fiercely, "Tell me the truth! Was it you?" "It wasn't me!" Giselle was well aware that she couldn't hide the truth, but she still refused to admit it. The truth was, she had acted on the spur of the moment. It was, in every sense, an impulsive killing. Giselle hadn't thought of the consequences; she had just wanted to save an innocent woman.

So, she hadn't even thought about how she would explain it to Orin. While they were arguing, two men in military uniforms burst into the room. When they discovered their fallen comrade , one of them lost control of his emotions. He immediately rushed to the body, tested for signs of life, and when he found none, he cried out and shook the corpse violently. ---- Then, the man sprang to his feet and questioned Orin, "What the hell happened here? Who killed him?" Noticing that his comrade had been shot, he even asked if Orin was the one who had done it.

He went as far as to whip out his gun, point it at Orin, and demand an explanation. Even with a gun pointed at him, Orin didn't lose his composure; he merely locked his cold eyes on Giselle Meanwhile, the other man in uniform spotted Susanna, the woman their comrade had chosen for the night. He directed his anger at her, grabbing her violently. Giselle hurriedly stepped between Susanna and the man and fearlessly said, "It's not her. She had nothing to do with it!" Just then, the man with a gun spotted a surveillance camera in the corner of the room and demanded that Orin pull up the footage.

Orin wanted to know the truth as well, so he ordered someone to check the surveillance footage.
