In Love, Never Say Never (Ashton Fuller and Scarlett Stovall) novel Chapter 1857

I saw Nathaniel’s expression as he threw threats at the police earlier. That reminded me of how terrifying of a person he was, and my sympathy for him now would turn into a weapon against my family and friends in the future.

“No,” I admitted to it calmly. “Just as you’ve guessed, this is just a trap. You’ve fallen right into it, Nathaniel.”

Having heard that, Nathaniel smiled bitterly. “Really? Luckily…”

“It’s not good news for you.”

“Now that I’m here, I’m not afraid of anything.” Nathaniel gave me a faint smile as if he had seen through the world.

Just then, Ashton arrived and pulled me into his arms. He was afraid to lose me.

Yet, right at that moment, a jeep rushed toward us from the road on our left side. It hit all the police cars which surrounded Nathaniel and instantly came to a halt beside him.

The driver was wearing a bulletproof vest as he fired at the police, trying to force them back.

In the middle of the shower of bullets, the back door of the jeep was pushed open. Garrett suddenly stepped out of the car.

While gripping the back of the front seat with one hand, he shouted at Nathaniel, “Do you believe me now? That woman wants you dead. Get in right now! You’re putting everyone here in danger!”

Once he finished his words, a bullet shot through his head.

Many snipers were hiding on top of the building, and they were all waiting for that moment.

When Garrett collapsed, everyone else panicked. One of them started screaming, “Nat! Get in, or else we’ll have to leave you-”

Before that man even finished speaking, those men collapsed one by one.

In no time, Nathaniel was the only person left alive.

It seemed like he had expected all this as a faint smile was still plastered on his face. Then, he slowly opened his arms, and the gun on his hand was revealed.

At that moment, I clearly saw that he was mouthing some words to me. Yet, before I could see properly, Ashton covered my eyes with his hand.

Bang! Bang! After several gunshots sounded, I heard the sound of a body dropping on the ground.

When Ashton moved his hand away from my eyes, Nathaniel was lying on the ground. He had lost the ability to move.

Under the protection of the crowd, one of the police approached Nathaniel and kicked the gun away from the latter’s hand. He checked Nathaniel’s pulse before he announced, “He’s dead!”

Just then, everyone else rushed over and started cleaning up the mess.

Ashton did not want me to witness such a brutal scene, so he led me back to the hospital. Vaguely, I could hear a police shouting, “Boss, his gun is not loaded…”

I could guess that they were talking about him, but I did not ask them further.

How is it possible? He knew that he would die. Nathaniel wasn’t stupid.

The only thing I was certain was the Fullers would no longer live in misfortune anymore.

Two months later, a wedding was held.

Alexander got down on one knee and started weeping. “I’m Alexander Zimmerman. I promise to take care of you for the rest of my life. Emery Moore, will you marry me?”

Even though Emery had been through many struggles in life, she was still moved. She nodded fervently in response. Worrying that she might embarrass herself, she pursed her lips as she stretched out her hand to take the ring.
