Chapter 429
The masked man fixed his blueish eyes on her body. His blood boiled while his Adam apple bobbed up and down in
his throat. Seizing the chance while he was distracted, Maisie moved away from the gun and rose to her feet.
Bang!
He missed his target.
Maisie turned to his back and strangled his neck with her arm, choking him. Her gaze was stern as she asked,
“Where is Nolan?”
The masked man said something, and Maisie knocked him out cold. She took his gun and continued to run inside.
Meanwhile, Nolan had taken down a few masked men. All of them were shot by him and were squirming on the
ground in pain. After making quick work of the last masked man, he kicked his gun away when he was reaching for
it. His well-pressed suit was torn and wrinkled. There were wounds on his arms and back, and there were beads of
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsweat dangling off the tip of his hair. He looked like a mess, but at the same time, he looked fierce and ruthless.
He stepped on the back of the man’s hand and asked,” Who sent you?”
The man on the floor winced in pain, and when he refused to say anything, Nolan kicked him, causing him to vomit
blood.
Nolan pointed the gun at him and asked, “TH give you another chance. Who sent you?”
The man closed his eyes as if he was waiting for his death to arrive.
‘Bang!
Nolan was stunned. He turned his head to look at the direction from which the sound of gunfire came and saw the
slowly falling body of the black-clad man behind him who was about to sneak up on him with a knife. Then, he was
stunned once again when he saw the person who fired the shot.
Maisie slowly lowered down the pistol and looked as if she had her energy drained from her. Her hands were
shaking profusely even after the man had fallen to the ground.
‘I just killed a man… But if I didn’t do it, he was going to kill Nolan. I was just saving Nolan. Yes, I was just saving
Nolan…’
“Zee!” Nolan ran up to her. She threw the pistol away and fell into his embrace. Her face was pale, but she forced
herself to smile at him. “Nolan, I’m not late, am I?” Nolan held her tightly in his arms and gnashed his teeth. “Are
you mad? What the hell did you come back for!?”
Maisie lifted her head to look at him and said, “I don’t want to leave you alone.”
Nolan’s heart skipped a beat after he heard what she said. He secured her tightly in his embrace and planted a kiss
on the top of her head. He did not know what he was going to do if he were to lose her.
Rowena, who was hiding in the dark, stopped the rest of the people. She said, “The police are here. We have to get
out of here immediately. Bring the virus to me.”
The person behind her then handed her a syringe. Rowena took the syringe and looked at Nolan again. In fact, she
had hesitated before. It was just all Nolan cared about was not her but Maisie.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe had been in love with him for 20 years. She looked up to him since she was a child and wanted to marry him
after growing up.
Unfortunately, she no longer was the little girl behind his back. He had met the woman he loved most, and that
woman was not her.
Rowena looked at Maisie, her gaze laced thick with hatred.
She put on an insulation glove and dripped the virus in the syringe onto a bullet.
Daniel had told her before that it only took one drop of this virus to the skin to start the infection. Normal gloves
would not be able to protect them from the virus. Besides, this was a newly developed virus, and its effect was
much quicker than the normal virus that had broken out 30 years ago.
Once infected, he or she would certainly die.
Rowena loaded the bullet with the virus into her pistol with shaking hands. Her eyes were bloodshot as she aimed at
them. “Nolan, you shouldn’t refuse to love me!”
Nolan inadvertently lifted his head and saw an infrared ray. He grabbed Maisie into his arms and turned around,
using himself as a shield to block the shot.
