Chapter 243 - End of a Traitor

Keith holds a knife at Cassidy's throat.

Edward curses out loud, turning instead to point his gun at him, but he soon learns he can't shoot without risking her safety. Her captor might act before him. Seven, on the other hand, observes Bryan staring stiffly at Asher - disbelief, fury and betrayal flashing across his eyes.

"Cassidy-"

"We could've escaped with Cassidy long before they showed up."
