Just as Tommy finished his sentence, he heard a commotion behind him.

Ivan was fighting with the assassin, and every strike he delivered was fatal. If Ivan were not skilled in combat, the professional assassin could have killed him in just a few moves.

Tommy realized something was up, so he immediately wanted to grab Anne.

While Anne retreated, she was pulled into a person's arms.

"Let me go!" She thought it was a man she did not know, so she hated to be touched like that. "Anne."

Anne was stunned. She looked up and felt happy to see a familiar face. "Anthony?"

"It's me."

Tommy was infuriated as he watched the two of them looking lovingly at each other, Tommy became infuriated.

"As expected, Anne, you did leave a trace for Anthony." Tommy's expression darkened.

"You're the one who took me too lightly,” said Anne.

It was because she had always wanted to run away from Anthony in the past that he had the wrong impression, was it not?

"So what? You want to kill me? With just the two of you?" asked Tommy.

Upon saying that, he turned around and ran toward another exit. There were bodyguards standing in that direction, blocking Tommy's way. Tommy took out his gun and fired shots. One of the two bodyguards collapsed while the other dodged the shot and hid at the side.

A normal person would not run in that direction anymore. After all, there was someone hiding in the shadows.novelebook.com However, Tommy insisted on going that way, and he kept firing shots while moving forward. The bodyguard who was in hiding had no choice but to shoot back while hiding.

Tommy almost got shot. After firing another shot, he did not linger and ran immediately.

He had been staying on the cruise ship for so long, so he certainly was more familiar with the ship compared to Anthony's men, who just came onboard. After making a few turns, he arrived at a secluded area.

Tommy tried to contact his men, but he realized nobody responded.

He knew Anthony's men must have come onboard a long time ago, so there were probably not many of his men left.

If he could not escape, he would be captured by Anthony. He would rather die than end up in Anthony's hands.

Suddenly, a person appeared in front of him. Tommy instinctively raised his hand and pointed his gun at him.

"Don't shoot. It's me,” said Corentin.

"Why are you here?” Tommy gave it a thought before saying, "You're with Anthony.”

"He didn't have enough manpower. I wanted to notify you, but I don't know your contact,” said Corentin.

"Do you have a way to leave?" asked Tommy.

"Yes. Follow me. Did you bring the cure with you?" Corentin led the way.

"It's not on the ship," said Tommy.

He was infected at that moment because Anne had deliberately wiped the fluid from her ulcer on his hand. It was just that it was not time yet, so his symptoms were not showing. He was not in a hurry. He could just take the cure when he arrived at his destination.

"Where did you hide it?" asked Corentin.

"I'll tell you when I'm safe and sound.”

Corentin could understand, so he did not press any further.

Tommy climbed down a robe on the railings. Halfway down the robe, he heard Corentin say, "I can develop the cure myself. There's no need for you to be alive.”

Upon saying that, he fired a shot.

Tommy was shot. He fell into the sea from a great height.

Half an hour later, a bodyguard came to Anthony and said, "Mr. Marwood, we've found Tommy's body in the sea.”

Anthony and Anne rushed over and saw Tommy's body lying on the floor. There was a hole in his head.

Anne felt Tommy deserved to die, but she still could not accept it to see him dead so suddenly. novelebook.comHow could she have ever expected the person who protected her when she was a child would die like that?

She felt a hand being held tightly, which made her regain her senses.

"Let's go." Anthony took her away.
