NovelEnglishChapter 736 The Cliff Emelie ignored William. She scanned the path ahead, getting ready to make a break for it.
However, William abruptly grabbed her arm. He raised his crossbow, wanting to fire a signal shot into the sky.
It was a prearranged signal for his team.
Emelie forcefully pressed his arm down. The shot veered off course, and the signal wasn't sent.
William looked at her in confusion as she slightly smirked. "Mr. Middleton, if you're scared, go hide. Don't get in our way." William instantly understood. "You cwithout backup on purpose." Emelie gave him a glance amidst the chaos, surprised at how fast he had caught on.
She didn't bother explaining. Instead, she rolled out from behind the tree and fired two quick arrows. That drew the attackers' attention and she sprinted into the woods.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was clear that she was their primary target. Wherever she went, they followed.
As Emelie ran, she fired arrows over her shoulder. As she reached for another arrow, she realized that her quiver was empty.
The attackers noticed and laughed as one of them shouted, "She's out! Get her!" Emelie was forced to the edge of a cliff with no way forward. Lyle stepped in front of her, facing the oncoming attackers.
The driver, Felix, sensed his victory and emerged.
He shone a flashlight on Emelie, grinning wickedly. "It's you. I remember you. Years ago, we were paid to catch you, but Frank got distracted by his desires and ended up dead. But it's alright. What he couldn't enjoy back then, I can help him enjoy now!" Lyle wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand, his expression growing feral.
"How about I show you what it feels like to have your tongue ripped out?" Lyle threatened.
Felix was taken aback by the fierce glint in Lyle's eyes. His countenance shifted slightly.
But then he remembered they were cornered, with no escape. What was there to fear? He quickly pointed at Lyle. "Grab him! I'll rip his fucking tongue out!" Emelie held Lyle back and turned to Felix, smiling gently. "Since we're here, can you satisfy my curiosity? Who ordered you to captureall those years ago?" Felix gave an obscene smirk. "Sure. Get in bed withand I'll tell you everything. Nice and slow." Lyle's eyes flashed with rage.
Emelie let out a sigh. "Well, it's better to die with dignity than suffer humiliation. Instead of falling into your hands, I'd rather... Take my own life!" With that being said, she turned and sprinted toward the cliff. Before anyone could react, she jumped off the edge.
Felix and the others were stunned. They were barely processing what had happened when another figure leaped after her.
"Eme!" A voice shouted.
