Meanwhile, in the forest, as soon as Henry and Laura entered the minefield, explosions erupted, and more than ten pursuers burst into laughter.The head of the American branch, with Henry and Laura, didn't even dare to catch their breath. Midway, Laura, weakened by blood loss, slumped to one side. Henry quickly reached out and pulled her into his embrace.Henry's fair face betrayed panic. Since he'd known Laura, she'd always been lively and fiercely strong. He'd never seen her so vulnerable before, and he was nervous.As soon as he held Laura, she regained some consciousness and immediately pushed Henry away. But it was too late. The warmth spread behind Henry's touch, his hands stained with blood...Henry's eyes seemed to glint red, his fingers trembling. Thankfully, it was night, masking his defeated expression. This was Laura's blood...Bloody, thick, and... cold..."Laura, are you okay?" Henry heard his own trembling voice. He forced himself to take deep breaths, trying hard to st

"Spit it out." Camellia looked at the head of the American branch, who, with red eyes, recounted the whole story. Even this tough guy couldn't hold back his tears, and silence fell over the entire cliff.Camellia's heart pounded. This fierce girl, whom she had only seen a few times in her life, had long known that the girl liked Henry. She had just been stubborn not to admit it, but little did she know that by not admitting it, she had admitted it with her actions.She was risking her life for someone she loved.For Henry, she took several bullets and, in the end, she didn't hesitate to sacrifice herself along with the enemy to save Henry's life. Laura probably knew she wouldn't survive, so she...But this scene happening in front of Henry was something no one could have predicted.Her nephew was so lucky to meet such a girl at such a young age. Yet, it was also unfortunate. They were destined to part in this life, and he didn't have the fortune to enjoy a lifetime with Laura.Out on

Wide-eyed with horror, Jessica watched their still bodies. She stood up abruptly and ran towards the forest. After running a few steps, she saw Mr. Marcus emerge from behind a tree, his face smiling. Jessica's eyes instantly reddened.It had been twelve days since they last met. He had lost weight, and his tall figure looked even more slender. In his black clothes, his thinness was apparent. There was a hint of worldly wisdom in his eyes, overshadowing his elegance. Seeing him, Jessica's eyes welled up."Honey...""Jessica, you've become quite ugly," Marcus tutted softly, extending his hand gently towards her.Jessica smiled brightly and ran towards him, but she dared not touch his hand, no matter how excited she was.Keeping her distance had become deeply ingrained in her."You've become quite ugly too."Marcus suddenly grabbed her and pulled her into his arms.The familiar scent enveloped her. At first, she sighed, then she trembled violently and struggled fiercely.Marcus restraine

Jessica and Marcus soaked in the hot spring for a while before coming ashore. The young men who had searched this area wouldn't be back for a short while, so for the time being, it was relatively safe. Mr. Marcus wasn't someone to be taken lightly, naturally he could sense any movement. After soaking in the hot spring for a while, Jessica felt dizzy from the steam. She lay in the sun for a while before feeling better.Mr. Marcus took out a mini folding telescope and opened it. The helipad was right below."You're crazy with this idea," Jessica said. After sunbathing for a while, her clothes were almost dry. Feeling energetic, she followed his gaze downwards. They had climbed up a small cliff and were halfway up the mountain. From above, they could see the buildings below clearly.Mr. Marcus scoped out the terrain and chuckled lightly. "You think it's impossible?"Jessica nodded honestly, "My room has a window facing the helipad, the defense there is very tight, you couldn't possibly s

"I always thought my world was simple, never imagined I'd experience life and death like this," Jessica said with a nervous laugh, trying to ease her tension. "When I'm old, I can brag to my son, 'Hey, your mom's life has been quite the adventure.'"Mr. Marcus smiled, freeing up a hand to gently pat Jessica's shoulder, slightly calming her anxious heart. His woman had always been so courageous; most ordinary women would have been trembling in such a situation.From the back hill to the airstrip, buildings were being destroyed left and right, screams filled the air, and flames raged wildly. Amid the chaos, Jessica saw machine gun fire spraying everywhere. Few women could remain as calm and fearless as Jessica in such a situation."It's like a movie scene," Jessica chuckled. She used to find scenes of action movie heroes bombing terrorists from planes so cool and inspiring, but now that she was experiencing it herself, she realized they were just ordinary people. Such scenes were really
