Unstoppable Unforgiven (Shermaine and Joshua) novel Chapter 487

Simon had been holding back his rage for so long that the murderous aura around him was practically suffocating. He refused to believe that Joshua could handle these many highly skilled assassins and mercenaries all at once.

Besides, they were all equipped with top–tier weapons that Simon had paid a fortune to procure for them.

After the party ended, the competition to narrow down from eighty contestants to fifty officially began.

Jasmine sat in her room, anxiety gnawing at her. Even though Damien was there to keep her company, she couldn’t shake off her worries.

When the competition started, Shermaine had already taken her seat at the gambling table. She wasn’t wearing a dress this time–instead, she sported an all–black outfit with her blue hair pulled up high in a ponytail.

This heroic, spirited look attracted another wave of admirers who were completely smitten with her appearance.

At this point, nobody was really paying attention to the actual competition. Everyone desperately wanted the live stream cameras to stay focused on Shermaine so they could feast their eyes on her to their heart’s content.

Shermaine held her cards in her hands, but her gaze couldn’t help drifting toward the area outside the auditorium.

Joshua was nowhere to be seen outside the auditorium. After a quick glance, she pulled her attention back to the gam

But that’single glance didn’t escape Simon’s notice.

His eyes gleamed with meaningful intent. ‘So Boa was worried about that man, wasn’t she? Of course she would be. After all, Boa cared so deeply about that guy. It was truly maddening to watch.

Shermaine couldn’t be bothered to guess what Simon was thinking. Her focus returned to the card table, and after the dealer dealt another round, she pushed all her chips forward.

Meanwhile, Joshua, unable to attend the game, was surrounded by a crowd. No idler could approach this area, and the ship’s security simply ignored him. They wouldn’t interfere unless a VIP requested protection.

The air hung thick with the metallic stench of blood. One attacker lunged at him from behind, but Joshua spun around and delivered a devastating roundhouse kick that sent the man flying.

With a loud bang, the body sailed out of the cabin and plunged into the sea. The scream cut short.

Joshua’s trench coat billowed in the wind as his opponent aimed high–end mechanical equipment at him. The moment a red laser dot appeared on his body, a curved blade materialized in Joshua’s hand.

Before his enemy could pull the trigger, the knife flew through the air and plunged straight into the man’s heart.

The blade moved too fast for anyone to dodge. Another one down. This seemed almost too easy for Joshua.

“Boss, we’re here.” The Eagle Assassins arrived as backup.

Joshua retrieved his blood–stained curved blade. “No survivors.”

“Yes, sir.”

A drunk man stumbled out of the restroom in a daze, and when he saw the carnage, he nearly wet himself from terror. ‘Holy shit, it looked like a scene straight out of hell.‘

Bodies lay scattered across the floor- some dead, others badly wounded and unable to get up.

The man sobered up instantly, and when he noticed someone’s gaze on him, he stammered, “Sorry to bother you, goodbye!”

The tournament had been running for about an hour when the dealer slid another card across the felt. Shermaine didn’t even bother to look at it before

shoving all her chips forward.

Joshua’s business was wrapping up around the same time.

“Boss, we’re pretty much done here,” one of his assassins reported, stepping forward.

“Have Damien bring me a clean set of clothes,” Joshua said, washing the blood from his hands.

“Yes, sir.”

“And make sure you clean up the scene.”

“Got it.”

After Shermaine pushed all her chips into the center, her opponent across the table hesitated for a moment, glanced at his cards again, then gritted his

teeth and decided to go for broke–he shoved his chips forward too.

The dealer gestured for Shermaine to reveal her cards.

Shermaine slowly flipped over her hand, taking her time with each card.
