The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 35 Ambushed on the Road

At this moment, three heavily modified armored off-road vehicles were speeding down the road leading

back to Southlake City.

Caspian and Sylvia sat in the vehicle in the middle.

Subordinates from Diadem Hall rode in the vehicles in front and behind them.

Just then, Sylvia got a call from Hugo Webber, the subordinate she put in charge of the wedding

arrangements.

“How are the preparations coming along?” Sylvia asked.

“General Frost, the prominent families from Dhord City have-arrived in Southlake City. All of the preparations have been made. We’re now awaiting further orders!” Hugo reported.

“There’s no rush. Tell them to sit tight. Lord Caspian and I are making our way back to Southlake City. Wait until we arrive before heading over to Stewart Residence to pick up the bride,” Sylvia instructed.

“Understood,” Hugo replied.

“You settled the suits and the rings, right?” Sylvia checked.

“Rest assured, General Frost. Everything’s ready,” Hugo assured.

“That will be all for now then,” Sylvia said before terminating the call.

The three vehicles entered a bumpy and rough stretch of road with mountains on both sides.

They were surrounded by dense shrubbery on all sides.

As soon as Sylvia’s call ended, she received another call from an unfamiliar number.

“Hello? Who is this?” Sylvia asked.

“General Frost, this is John Anderson!” Having procured Sylvia’s number, John immediately called her to

report the situation.

“I just received a report saying that Tigra’s Apex Legion has entered Southlake City. They’re planning on attacking Lord Caspian! They could be near you right now! I’ve deployed fighter jets and soldiers to act as

your reinforcements. Please be careful!”
