Chapter 284
Sean had been waiting for for a long time.
Joseph had finally fallen into his hands. He was this close to taking down Joseph and wiping out his entire crew in one clean sweep
Outside, Sean had stationed an entire tactical unit–dozens of men lying in wait. Beyond the snipers, he had even flown in a squad of mercenaries from overseas overnight.
When he first arrived, Sean had taken a moment to scout the area. Just as he had predicted, Joseph no longer had many men left in Jersey City. The ones gathered here were essentially all he had left in the country.
According to the rescue plan Sean had drafted the night before, If everything went smoothly, he could not only rescue Charlotte but also destroy Joseph’s entire operation in one move.
