Never Late, Never Away Chapter 549
“Help!”
“Someone please help us!”
“Get us out of here!”
Everyone in the hall was desperately calling out to Vivian for help when they noticed her. They assumed she was the police coming to their rescue.
However, their cries for help agitated the robber, so he fired a warning shot towards the sky. “Everyone shut the f*** up!”
Bang! The anxious hostages screamed as soon as they heard the gunshot but immediately silenced themselves right after, allowing quietness to ensue once again. All the hostages were crouching with their hands on their heads, shivering for fear that the robber might point the gun at them.
Seeing that crowd was under control again, the robber pointed his gun towards Vivian with a restless look on his face. “Stay there and don’t move! Don’t come any closer!” His voice was clearly trembling.
At the same time, as soon as Vivian saw the gun pointing at her, she immediately became weak at the knees, barely holding herself up with those legs of hers. She swallowed hard and just stood there, afraid to move even an inch forward.
“Who are you! Why are you here!” The robber’s heart was racing. All he could think of at that moment was how he should escape if the police had actually arrived.
Before Vivian could say anything, Finnick roared at her, “What are you doing here! Leave!”
The man who wore a straight face even at gunpoint was currently covered in a cold sweat. No one knew how terrified he was just now when Vivian suddenly appeared.
“Stay quiet!” The robber pulled his hand back and bashed Finnick on the head with the handle of the gun. As blood flowed down the side of Finnick’s face, the gun was once again pointing back at him.
He was secretly relieved when he felt the gun pressed on his temple. A moment ago, Finnick was going insane when the gun was pointing towards Vivian. She was the only one on his mind, and he could not stand seeing her in such a dangerous situation.
