Chapter 7 - The Desperate Strike
Evelyn kept her hand completely hidden inside her silk pocket, tightly gripping the sharp surgical scalpel.
She knew she only had one highly dangerous chance to completely change the balance of power in the room.
Robert forcefully dragged her toward the stage, entirely focused on forcing Liam to type the passwords into the laptop.
Liam began typing incredibly slowly, intentionally stalling the massive financial transfer to buy them a few precious seconds.
As Robert completely turned his attention to the glowing computer screen, Evelyn intentionally stumbled and fell to her knees.
She landed directly next to David, who was currently restrained on the floor with heavy plastic zip ties.
In one incredibly swift motion, Evelyn used the sharp scalpel to violently slice completely through the thick plastic binding David's wrists.
David kept his hands perfectly still behind his back, brilliantly pretending he was still completely immobilized.
Robert angrily grabbed Maya by the hair, violently dragging the tied assassin toward the center of the stage.
"You have officially outlived your usefulness, my dear, and you are far too much of a loose end," Robert sneered coldly.
He raised his heavy pistol, fully intending to completely execute the bride directly in front of the horrified crowd.
Maya was a highly trained killer, and she absolutely refused to die quietly on her knees.
She violently threw her head backward, heavily smashing her skull directly into Robert's sensitive nose.
Robert screamed in pure agony, completely dropping his weapon as warm blood poured heavily down his face.
The sudden, chaotic movement provided the absolute perfect distraction for the undercover team to strike.
David violently sprung from the floor, aggressively tackling Robert's lead guard and stealing his heavy assault rifle.
Liam instantly abandoned the laptop, completely diving across the stage to recover his own discarded handgun.
A massive, incredibly deafening gunfight erupted instantly within the luxurious confines of the hotel ballroom.
Terrified guests screamed hysterically, frantically diving completely underneath the decorated tables to avoid the flying bullets.
Evelyn ignored the intense danger and completely threw her body over Arthur, desperately shielding her paralyzed husband.
Robert scrambled frantically across the floor, desperately searching for the dropped detonator remote in the chaos.

He spotted the blinking black device resting dangerously close to the shattered crystal of the champagne glass.
Liam saw his wicked uncle reaching for the deadly trigger and sprinted aggressively across the stage to stop him.
