Laura glanced back in silence, Henry had already sensed her thoughts, but didn't say anything. Maybe he, to some extent, also had similar thoughts. In times of crisis, most people think of themselves and their loved ones. People like them don't waste their thoughts on insignificant people."Are you really one of us?" The head of the American branch asked hesitantly. He had almost believed in Laura and Henry. If he was insignificant, he wouldn't have been locked up here, let alone tortured for so long by that old man.Laura gave him an unhappy look, "Believe what you want, don't ask if you don't. Haven't you seen Stone's wounds?"A big man being silenced by a small girl did cause some embarrassment. Laura was assertive and focused only on Henry, ignoring everyone else."Are you in pain?" Laura knew Henry was in bad shape, so she deliberately slowed down. A glimpse just now revealed many wounds, old and new, spread across his body."I can handle it." Henry had sweat on his face but held
These wolfhounds seemed to pick up on the tense atmosphere in the forest, lacking their initial vigor and sounding somewhat distressed, their howls jarring in the quiet night.Suddenly, the young men followed the direction of the wolfhounds, ready for battle at any moment.Camellia, hiding in the trees, smirked. She led them in here. Let's see if they'll be lucky enough to make it out alive.The silk dart flew straight and hit the tree trunk, Camellia looped the iron ring around it and slid past with the silk dart. At the same time, the silver gun shot eight times in a row, instantly killing twelve wolfhounds.This silver gun was given to her by Herman as compensation. Originally Herman's gun, but he lost hers. Camellia was furious and demanded compensation from Herman. Now Herman listened to Camellia's every word, so whatever she said went. Thus, this gun, the top-ranked silver gun, ended up in her hands.This gun was extremely deadly, and coupled with Camellia's prowess as the Gun K
"Is your master doing okay?""Shut your mouth, you're not worthy to mention my master." Camellia snapped coldly, her cold eyes piercing, wrist subtly moving as a chilling smile danced on her lips, "Leopard, I'm giving you a chance to prepare out of respect for your age, just don't die too miserably later."Leopard's pale face showed a fierce expression, his eyes that had been silent for years revealing a strong dominance.Being a figure like Camellia and Rose, it was clear that there was a strong killing intent emanating from Leopard.Leopard laughed heartily, his grey hair dancing in the night air, rustling without wind, and startling the birds in the forest, creating a menacing pressure in the eerie night forest."You two are her proud disciples, today I will eliminate you all," Leopard spoke with extreme coldness.Rose sneered, "Why not give it a try?"Camellia suddenly smiled seductively, holstering her silver gun, "After hiding for years, I didn't expect you to seek refuge with t
Meanwhile, in the forest, as soon as Henry and Laura entered the minefield, explosions erupted, and more than ten pursuers burst into laughter.The head of the American branch, with Henry and Laura, didn't even dare to catch their breath. Midway, Laura, weakened by blood loss, slumped to one side. Henry quickly reached out and pulled her into his embrace.Henry's fair face betrayed panic. Since he'd known Laura, she'd always been lively and fiercely strong. He'd never seen her so vulnerable before, and he was nervous.As soon as he held Laura, she regained some consciousness and immediately pushed Henry away. But it was too late. The warmth spread behind Henry's touch, his hands stained with blood...Henry's eyes seemed to glint red, his fingers trembling. Thankfully, it was night, masking his defeated expression. This was Laura's blood...Bloody, thick, and... cold..."Laura, are you okay?" Henry heard his own trembling voice. He forced himself to take deep breaths, trying hard to st
"Freeze!" one of the young men shouted.The head of the American branch swiftly put down the two children and pulled them behind him, his eyes sharp and cold. Damn it, after being locked up for years, his guard was significantly lowered."I knew you'd come up here. Do you think your little tricks down there could fool us?" the man sneered.They approached, guns pointed at their heads, coldly laughing. "Orders from the top: you get to live, consider yourselves lucky!""Orders from Leopard?" Laura's eyes were like daggers, exceptionally sharp.The man was furious, lifting his gun to shoot Laura, but Henry sternly intervened, "Stop it! A grown man like you hitting a girl, isn't that embarrassing?""You..." The man, ashamed and angry, lowered his gun.Another man said, "Enough talk, let's get them down."Laura gritted her teeth. They had come this far, so close to success. But in her current state... The head of the American branch... If something went wrong, it would be Henry's life on t
"Spit it out." Camellia looked at the head of the American branch, who, with red eyes, recounted the whole story. Even this tough guy couldn't hold back his tears, and silence fell over the entire cliff.Camellia's heart pounded. This fierce girl, whom she had only seen a few times in her life, had long known that the girl liked Henry. She had just been stubborn not to admit it, but little did she know that by not admitting it, she had admitted it with her actions.She was risking her life for someone she loved.For Henry, she took several bullets and, in the end, she didn't hesitate to sacrifice herself along with the enemy to save Henry's life. Laura probably knew she wouldn't survive, so she...But this scene happening in front of Henry was something no one could have predicted.Her nephew was so lucky to meet such a girl at such a young age. Yet, it was also unfortunate. They were destined to part in this life, and he didn't have the fortune to enjoy a lifetime with Laura.Out on
Jessica was excited all night and couldn't sleep. The next morning, she woke up early and sat waiting for the sunrise. Maybe it was because of her happy mood that the view of the sea from the second-floor window was extraordinarily beautiful.Breakfast was soon delivered, and as usual, Jessica did her morning exercises before returning to bed for some extra sleep to recharge. Surprisingly, Saxon didn't come to disturb her.After resting for a while, Jessica heard a loud argument in Italian. She woke up groggily and walked to the other bed to see two men arguing loudly in Italian, seeming quite agitated.Both men were Italian, speaking loudly in Italian. They seemed to be hiding and discussing something, behaving as if they were afraid of being discovered, probably discussing how to handle a mistake they made.There weren't usually many people around here, so they spoke loudly. Jessica quietly watched and listened from behind the window but couldn't understand what they were saying, ex
Wide-eyed with horror, Jessica watched their still bodies. She stood up abruptly and ran towards the forest. After running a few steps, she saw Mr. Marcus emerge from behind a tree, his face smiling. Jessica's eyes instantly reddened.It had been twelve days since they last met. He had lost weight, and his tall figure looked even more slender. In his black clothes, his thinness was apparent. There was a hint of worldly wisdom in his eyes, overshadowing his elegance. Seeing him, Jessica's eyes welled up."Honey...""Jessica, you've become quite ugly," Marcus tutted softly, extending his hand gently towards her.Jessica smiled brightly and ran towards him, but she dared not touch his hand, no matter how excited she was.Keeping her distance had become deeply ingrained in her."You've become quite ugly too."Marcus suddenly grabbed her and pulled her into his arms.The familiar scent enveloped her. At first, she sighed, then she trembled violently and struggled fiercely.Marcus restraine
