Chapter 379
Claudette couldn’t help but curse in a low voice.
Just an hour ago, this man, who had looked at her with tenderness and
professed his love for her, now wanted to blow her to pieces!
Instead of suspecting that Magnus had miscalculated or misunderstood that
Mackenzie and Emmanuel had fallen here, she preferred to believe that
Magnus was a hypocrite who wanted to destroy her because he couldn’t
have her.
“Perhaps, he doesn’t know that you and I are together!”
Emmanuel, on the other hand, was more inclined to believe in human nature
than Claudette. Regardless, it didn’t change the fact that they were currently
in a dangerous situation.
After all, the person now trying to assassinate them was not Magnus but that
darn traitor!
This type of explosive method was the specialty of that traitor, who was once
one of Emmanuel’s most respected comrades. Who would have thought he
would become Emmanuel’s mortal enemy?
Life was indeed full of drama!
While speaking, Emmanuel surveyed the surroundings like an eagle.
Meanwhile, he grasped Claudette’s hand in one of his, unwilling to let go.
He didn’t know when the next wave of attack would come, but he couldn’t
afford to underestimate the danger.
The two of them changed their positions in the darkness.
A gust of cold wind blew, causing Claudette’s already damp body to shiver
violently.
Emmanuel quickly turned to look.
The grassy area was wet, and Claudette, who had just been rolling on the
ground, was completely soaked with her clothes clinging to her body. Her
previously graceful figure looked even more alluring and had an unparalleled
impact on any man.
Emmanuel quickly took off his jacket and draped it over Claudette. “My
clothes are more waterproof. It’ll block the evening breeze.”
Claudette obediently nodded, pulling the jacket tighter around her and
inhaling the lingering scent of Emmanuel.
Dr. Lowe’s scent is truly warm and inviting. It smells so good!
Ave
“Ms. Lenoir, please don’t lose focus! Another attack could happen at any
moment!”
Emmanuel glanced at Claudette’s distracted state and gently tapped her
head, trying to bring her back to reality.
What kind of person is she?
We’re under attack, yet she seems so relaxed and is paying more attention to
my jacket?
“Oh, right!”
Claudette finally snapped back to reality. She wasn’t afraid of death, but she
had to find a way to save Emmanuel!
“Come with me!”
In the next moment, she pulled Emmanuel back up the hill and conveyed her
analysis, “Magnus is a genius. He’s good at deducing various things. It seems
that he still has this situation under his calculated deduction. He probably
doesn’t dare to kill anyone in plain sight, which is why he left a trap here to kill
you!”
Emmanuel agreed with Claudette’s deduction.
From their encounter at the restaurant, the attack at the project site, to the
explosion; it seemed like all these events were orchestrated by the same
person behind the scenes!
Dealing with a single traitorous expert in explosives was already difficult
-enough, but when one added a genius deduction master like Magnus,.
Emmanuel felt that his situation tonight was truly perilous, even more so than
when he carried out strategic missions in the Northern Region.
If it were just him alone, he might not worry so much, but he had to protect
Claudette. Furthermore, he didn’t even know how Mackenzie was doing at the
moment. It was inevitable that he would be filled with anxiety.
The two of them tried to quickly return to a populated area or a place with
public surveillance cameras. That way, the other party wouldn’t dare to act
so recklessly.
Unfortunately, Claudette was already experiencing a medical episode, and
after being exposed to the cold wind, she became even weaker. When
crossing the uneven terrain on the mountainside, she accidentally stumbled
and nearly lost consciousness.
“Ms. Lenoir! Stay with me!”
Emmanuel quickly lifted her up in his arms.
Blood continued to flow from Claudette’s mouth, and although her eyes were
weakly opened, it was clear that she couldn’t walk anymore!
