Chapter 638
Aria reacted in a flash. She whirled Flynt around and pinned him against the wall, with her forearm pressed hard against his
throat.
“Do you have a death wish?” she asked.
Flynt stared at her, but his face showed no trace of anger. “Last time I followed you, you treated me the same way. After all these years, you still haven’t changed a bit.”
Flynt didn’t resist in the slightest, which left Aria no chance to gauge his true capabilities.
“Keep your hands to yourself,” Aria warned and released him before leaving.
Flynt said, “Aren’t you going to ask why I set up this trap to lure you to the experimental base?”
“I’m not interested,” Aria said.
Even if the experiments weren’t harmful, confining and coercing people to participate was still illegal.
Flynt watched her retreating figure, and his smile vanished. He ordered his subordinate, “Get this place cleaned up.”
His subordinate replied, “Yes, Mr. Hartley.”
When Aria was walking along the concrete path, a chill shot up her spine. Instinctively, she moved aside.
“Aria!” Flynt’s voice rang out from behind her.
A bullet grazed Aria’s shoulder. She dropped into a crouch, snatched up a stone, and hurled it as she charged forward. The stone struck Ethan’s gun-wielding wrist dead center, sending his weapon clattering to the ground.
Aria kicked it slightly, sending the gun flying up, and she caught it midair. Without hesitation, she aimed at Ethan and pulled the trigger. The bullet instantly tore through his left shoulder.
Ethan let out a choked groan and clutched his wound as he staggered backward.
Not far away, Laura shrieked at the sight.
Aria swung her gun and fired a warning shot by Laura’s feet.
The bullet sparked against the ground. Laura’s eyes widened in terror. Her legs buckled, and she collapsed in a heap onto
the floor.
After the two shots rang out, hidden snipers had Aria in their crosshairs, and a few red dots bloomed across her body.
Aria stood her ground, lifted her head, and swept across the place.
Flynt feared the snipers might open fire indiscriminately. He rushed in front of Aria and, with a straight face, looked at Ethan. Flynt asked, “Uncle, why did you shoot at Aria?”
Ethan’s lips were bloodless. He said, “She ruined the experiment. Doesn’t she deserve a lesson? Flynt, this experiment is my life’s work, too. I won’t allow anyone to destroy it.”
Although it was his uncle who was injured, Flynt’s gaze was as cold as ice.
Suddenly, Ethan realized he didn’t truly know Flynt as well as he had believed.

Chapter 638
Flynt locked eyes with Ethan and warned coldly, “What if I shoot Margery?”
Ethan’s face changed in an instant.
“Uncle, this is your last warning,” Flynt said coldly. “If it happens again, I’ll return the favor tenfold to Margery.”
Listening to their utterly pointless and disgraceful exchange, Aria snorted in disdain and tossed the gun to the ground. She said, “If you dare, just kill your uncle. Resorting to threatening a woman is pathetic.”
