Fortunately, Tawana’s camera could only vaguely capture the body on the ground, but not the tragic state of the body. Otherwise, the live video streaming platform would likely have blurred the image.
The commander, holding back the urge to vomit, led the soldiers who were barely holding on to the bar. As soon as he entered the door, he immediately said, “All terrorists, raise your hands and surrender immediately, or we will shoot them on sight!”
Bernard Elno stepped forward and said dismissively, “The surviving terrorists are gone. I don’t know if you can catch up with them.”
“What? Leave?!” The commander suddenly became anxious and exclaimed: “Why did you let him go?! Why didn’t you just leave them?!”
Bernard Elno pointed at his nose and asked with wide eyes: “You’re asking me? If I had that ability, why would I need you? I might as well form an army to protect you!”
The commander felt a little embarrassed for a moment. He touched his nose and immediately asked, “How are the people at the scene? Are anyone injured?”
“No,” Bernard Elno said sadly, “I really don’t know what your troops are doing. You don’t even know about so many militants sneaking in. This is simply outrageous!”
As he spoke, he wanted to flatter himself, so he said in a cold voice: “Thanks to my use of money at the critical moment to destroy these terrorists, otherwise, Miss Sweet, I, and so many guests of White Horse Island would probably have turned into cold corpses!”
For Bernard Arnault, once the money is spent, the goal is to maximize its benefits.
Although he didn’t actually give Kenji Zhao the 100 million US dollars, he did give White Horse Island to Charlie, and also bought JD Island from the Dubai Consortium and gave it to Charlie. With all these losses and expenses, more than 1 billion US dollars were lost.
However, Charlie was kind enough to give her a chance to be a hero this time, and a French hero who saved hundreds of people and superstar Tawanna Sweet.
As long as I take advantage of this opportunity, the profits I will get will definitely be much greater than the losses of tens of billions of rupiah, so from now on I must always mention this achievement.
The commander felt embarrassed and could only flatter him: “Mr. Elno, today is indeed thanks to you. Don’t worry, we will definitely strengthen the nation’s defense and security in the future and will not allow this to happen again!”
Bernard Elno accidentally noticed that Tawana had pointed the live camera on her phone at him, so he quickly cleared his throat and said loudly, “They are all our distinguished guests from White Horse Island. I am willing to spend as much money as possible for them, and I feel no guilt. It’s just that my bodyguard and Miss Sweet’s bodyguard were killed in this attack. My biggest regret is not being able to save them!”
After that, he accused: “The main reason is that you’re really bad. You know, so many tourists from all over the world come to you for vacation and consumption. Ensuring everyone’s safety is your most basic responsibility. I hope you can take it seriously from now on!”
The commander immediately nodded and said, “Mr. Elno, you’re right to criticize me. I will report this to the highest leaders and request an increase in national defense funding to ensure the safety of all tourists.”
Bernard Elno waved his hand and said, “How about this? After this matter is resolved, I will donate US$50 million to your defense department to strengthen your maritime defense capabilities. I hope this incident will never happen again!”
