Bradford decided to make a run for it.
Without delay, tonight was the night.
He didn't dare take too much with him; despite his considerable wealth in Revival City, these tangible assets would obviously be a burden. Carrying them would hinder his escape.
His greatest asset was his own life, along with the connections he'd made over the years in business. As long as he made it out alive, lost wealth could be regained.
On the contrary, he took out a lot of money, giving it to his bodyguards and the skilled mercenaries he had hired, promising that if they could leave the city and get outside, there would be even more money waiting for them.
At night, Bradford headed to the northwest side of the city.
This wasn't where the city gate was located, but it wasn't impossible to leave.
His years of business experience, of course, had given him control over some special passages.
