now. While Phil was distracted, she threw the handful of soil into his eyes.
“Ah!” Phil covered his eyes.
Cordelia took the opportunity to run out, pulling Zennie with her.

went right through his scapula with a loud bang accompanied by a bright flare.
Phil fell to the ground with a thud, curling up in pain.
Cordelia pulled Zennie to run without turning back. Robert was outside to pick them up.

avoided it swiftly and kicked Phil’s wrist. The latter was wounded, so he was not able to last long, falling to the
ground again after some staggering.

“Oh, it’s fine! I know that you’re defending yourself…”
“I didn’t mean that.” Zephyr’s gaze was deep and dark as he stared at Phil. “I hope he can be treated first, and I’d

“So, you know me.” Seth turned around to gesture to two assistant doctors to come in. “I’m the surgeon today to
extract the bullet out of you.”
Seth pulled up a scalpel.
He thought of the grievances and humiliation Zennie had been through during this time and recalled the obscene
photos Zephyr had shown him… He had rushed back before he could finish his seminar in Jangasas.
The moment he was back, he met this sc*m.
Seth bit his lips, his hand holding the scalpel shaking.
“You… operate on me now!” Phil panted, drenched in sweat. “Do it now!”
Seth focused and looked at him seriously.
“Phil Nelson, as a doctor, I’ll ensure you live.
