Chapter 2299

Kyrie hissed, “I’ll just kill Andrew’s women first and see if he cries about it.”

He slapped Noah aside with one strike, sending him flying. His aura roared like a beast as his hand reached straight for Aspen’s neck, making it clear he wanted her dead.

However, right when his claws were about to touch her, he froze. He asked, “What the hell are you laughing at?”

Aspen, at death’s door, was still chuckling. “I’m laughing at you, General Harding, for showing off your big, bad authority. You’d better kill me right now. That way, Andrew will have every reason to avenge me.”

Her voice sharpened. “Believe me, General Harding, if anything happens to me or Natasha, and he doesn’t kill you himself, then justice is dead.”

Kyrie ground his teeth. “Bitch!”

He raised his hand for a slap, but her mocking eyes held him back again. He snapped, “Take them away!”

Back in his vehicle, his face darkened.

Killing Aspen and Natasha should have been no different than crushing two ants. However, as the rage drained, he remembered the shadow Andrew had cast on him ten years ago.

If he really killed Andrew’s women, how would that devil respond?

A shiver ran down Kyrie’s spine against his will. He was not afraid, yet the nightmare of the past still haunted him, so he chose restraint.

“Once it’s confirmed that Andrew stole the Blackstar Crystal and he can’t talk his way out of it, I’ll torture those bitches to death right in front of him,” Kyrie muttered, slamming his fist into the wheel.

His grin turned vicious. “No… Before killing them, I’ll make sure to play with them for three days and nights. Watching Andrew break under my feet will be the greatest pleasure of all.”

Soon, Aspen and Natasha were dragged into the military headquarters.

Luna was already waiting, and the moment she saw their bruised faces, her brows furrowed in fury. “What happened here? I gave strict orders that they were not to be harmed. Who did this?”

Her voice was ice-cold.

Noah stammered, “General Phelan, there was a misunderstanding, it was…”

Kyrie stepped down from his car slowly, unconcerned. “Luna, stop making a big deal. I hit them, and frankly, they deserved it. If I hadn’t held back, they’d already be stripped of their skin.”

However, Luna’s fury did not fade. She exploded and yelled, “Kyrie! Do you realize how badly you’ve messed this up?”

Kyrie scowled at being shouted at. “Luna, aren’t you overreacting? Do you really think I was wrong? I’m a major general, a commanding officer. What’s the crime in slapping around two nobodies?”

Luna clenched her jaw. “I’ll deal with you later!”

She turned to Natasha with concern. “Madam Vostokoff, are you alright?”

Natasha shook her head. “It’s not too serious, but Aspen is hurt.”

Luna rushed to Aspen and saw her pale, pained expression. Her heart sank. “Ms. Stevens, let me get you treated right away.”

She reached for Aspen’s hand, but Aspen pulled back with a cold voice. “I wouldn’t dare trouble you, General Phelan.”

Luna narrowed her eyes. “Ms. Stevens, what’s that supposed to mean?”
