NovelEnglishChapter 174:
Norah discreetly shifted her gaze.
Her heart thumped loudly, not just from the chaos outside the café but also from Sean's grip around her wrist.
She studied his pronounced knuckles and slim fingers, sensing the warmth flowing from him.
With a gentle shift of her hand, Norah felt his grip on her wrist tighten.
“Don’t move. Let's get out first,” Sean said without glancing back, his voice calm and reassuring.
“Mr. Scott, | spotted people with guns and explosives heading this way when | entered.
I've called for backup, and they'll be here soon.” Phillip swiftly approached them, giving a quick rundown of the
situation.
“We can use the underground parking lot to buy time.”
Explosions echoed as Phillip finished speaking.
Gunshots and terrified screams pierced the air outside.

Norah's heart sank.

In Otland, terrorist attacks happened often. With money and permits, one could get guns legally.
Upon arrival, Norah and Alice were both equipped with small lady pistols.
Norah stopped in her tracks.
“Wait—Alice is still in the café?”
“No tto worry about anyone else.” Sean kept tugging Norah along with a firm grip, his tone cold.
In his thoughts, Norah was the precious gem he needed to protect, and the rest didn’t matter much to him.
Putting their lives on the line just wasn’t worth it.
Sean believed the priority was to escape from this place safe and sound.
Yet, concerned for Alice's safety, Norah frowned at Sean’s words, freeing her hand and announcing sharply,
“Sean, you go ahead.
| need to find my friend.”
The terror attack spread rapidly.
Once Norah shook off Sean’s hand, she swiftly ran back. Before Sean and Phillip could react, she had
disappeared around the corner of the underground parking lot.
Phillip glanced at Sean, catching a glimpse of anger in the latter's expression.
Sean was displeased. He thought Norah gave up a lot for her friends. Last time, Norah boldly infiltrated the Fox
Alliance's stronghold alone for Kasan. Today, she fearlessly rushed to the attack site for her friend.
He felt Norah valued her friends more than her own life.
Phillip wanted to warn Sean. Those people were hardcore criminals.
Phillip and Sean were in Otland for work, not rolling deep with bodyguards.
Phillip had reached out to Sacredice, and it wouldn't be too long before Sacredice’s men showed up to handle
the situation.
Through clenched teeth, Sean asked, “How long will the people from Sacredice take to arrive?”
“They should be here in another ten minutes,” Phillip replied.

Sacredice, the biggest and most secretive foreign group, was highly skilled in both gathering information and
hunting bounties. If they decided to take on a job, nothing could deter them from accomplishing their tasks.
The most frequent task was to dig up information regarding the Supernatural Doctor.
As the Supernatural Doctor resumed the delivery of medical treatment across the world lately, interest in her
grew exponentially.
Having treated Otland’s princess and queen, the Supernatural Doctor had gained even more significant
attention, prompting inquiries about her through Sacredice.
The fact that the Supernatural Doctor was Norah, a young and gorgeous lady, was beyond the public's
expectations.
“Givethe gun!” Sean snatched the gun from Phillip and commanded, “After the people from Sacredice arrive,
clean up the situation.”
With that, he hurried off to chase after Norah.
Sean had a gun, but the lingering thought remained that he could run out of bullets.
Phillip observed Sean's actions with a complex expression, silently sighing at Sean’s unwavering commitment to
Norah.
