Attracted By My Ex-wife novel Chapter 454

Almost as a reflex action, Kevin stood in front of Anne to protect her. He then pierced his sharp, cold eyes at Kim's subordinates and warned, "The police are coming soon. If you don't want to die here, you'd better leave as soon as possible!"

"We know!" Kim's personal bodyguard sneered. Then, he looked around his accomplices and shouted, "Guys, tell them that we are not afraid of death!"

"Yeah!" Everyone answered in unison.

Obviously, they were all loyal to Kim, even with his current situation of being locked up in jail.

But then, this kind of loyalty was troublesome and toxic.

Looking around, Kevin saw that there were more than 30 men armed with guns in their hands. Although he too had a gun on his waist, he was clearly outnumbered. Although he could use the gun to shoot, he was not as familiar with weapons as these people were.

More than that, these men didn't have any families to protect, so killing was basically child's play for them.

"Have you even talked to Kim? Did your boss really agree to this?" After hearing the siren from afar, Kevin thought of asking those men questions to buy some time.

"You don't have to worry about it. Just stay still and let us kill you now!"

After saying that, everyone immediately rounded up their guns and aimed at Kevin and Anne.

The bullets deep from the dark muzzle would definitely take a person's life in one fire.

Anne bit her lips tightly. At this point, she would be lying if she said she was not afraid at all.

"You can choose between the two of us and Kim!" Suddenly, Anne managed to speak after trying to conceal her fright.

And although Kim's subordinates were ready to shoot at any time, they suddenly paused upon hearing her proposal.

"What do you mean?" the bodyguard asked, eyeing her in confusion.

"What if I tell you that we can help you save Kim if you let us get out of here safely, what will you choose?" Anne asked as she gazed at everyone while firmly holding Kevin's hand. She was clearly trying to gain their trust and establish rapport.

Kevin looked at her and immediately understood what she was doing.

"News that our boss is in jail has attracted the attention of the public. We can't save him at this point!" That was why these bodyguards were willing to risk their lives to kill Kevin and Anne.

In the distance, the police siren was getting closer and closer, and everyone was getting more and more anxious.

"Yeah, you can't save your boss, but it doesn't mean that Kevin couldn't!" she persuaded in a firm voice as a gleam of hope hinted in her eyes, The bodyguards looked at each other in utter confusion. Clearly, they were faced with a dilemma and did not know how to choose.

They didn't dare to underestimate Kevin's power after he completely beat Kim––the boss of an underground mafia.

They were willing to risk their own lives to kill Kevin and Anne because they had no other choice.

"Do you really have a solution?" The bodyguard gazed at Kevin, his expression wavering but a hint of hope was evident on his face.

"If you don't believe me, then I can't help you. We're on the same boat now. It's either we die together, or we live and save your boss." Kevin continued to cajole while concealing his nervousness.

The calmer he was, the more confused the bodyguard was.

Seconds later, Kim's bodyguard sneered and raised his gun again, pointing it at Kevin's head. "You'd better keep your promise, or we will definitely come back and take your lives. For now, we'll teach you a lesson first so that you won't forget to save Kim!"

Kevin was surprised to see that the bodyguard shifted his gun and pointed at Anne!

Yes, they had grasped Kevin's weakness!

If he were shot, he wouldn't care about it. But if Anne were to get severely wounded, then Kevin would definitely lose his mind.

Being the gangsters that they were, these men clearly knew how to make Kevin keep his promise!

Meanwhile, Anne's body became stiff. Suddenly, a sharp and life-threatening bullet was shot from the dark muzzle towards her leg!

Her breathing fastened while she could feel that time had slowed down.

The bullet flew so fast that Anne's body could not move.

No!

She tightly closed her eyes, but before she could even feel the burning sensation of a bullet, a strong force had pushed her. The next second, she felt falling into a warm embrace, followed by a muffled groan that penetrated her ears.

Feeling no excruciating pain at all, she opened her eyes and trembled at what welcomed her sight.

Kevin, who was holding her tightly, had turned pale. And although he was clearly tormented with throbbing pain, he still managed to smile at her.

"Anne, don't be afraid. I'm here with you." His voice was still so gentle and reassuring.

Meanwhile, Kim's subordinates were all dumbfounded. They didn't expect that Kevin could move so fast to block the bullet meant for Anne.

At the same time, the police siren was fast approaching. These bodyguards knew that if they didn't leave now, there would really be no chance to escape anymore.

"Remember, this shot is just a small lesson. Next time, we will come with more people, and not only Kevin will get hurt!" After the cold voice, everyone immediately dispersed and hurried to their cars.

"Kevin, where did you get shot? Tell me! Will I graze your wound if I move?"

There was a bit of sob in Anne's voice as she stayed still under his embrace.

Kevin smiled and shook his head before struggling to sit on the ground.

As Anne watched him search his legs, she couldn't help but cover her mouth in shock. Because Kevin was wearing black suit pants, the stain of blood was not evident. But his whole leg had become wet!
