Let's Get Married novel Chapter 555

In the lowland, Lily is imprisoned in front of Hawk, her hands behind her back. Hawk stretches out his arm from the side of her face. He holds the gun straight with his arm, without any shaking even he keeps his gesture for more than 10 minutes.

He purposely knocks on the back of Lily's neck with the hilt of his gun. Lily lets out a cry of pain, but she regrets the moment she yells.

She knows Hawk intentionally stirs up Rex in this way. This is the effect he wants.

After that, no matter how hard Hawk tries to force her, Lily doesn't make any sounds. She fixes her eyes at the top of the lowland. ‘Fortunately, he doesn't come over, otherwise...’

Then she looks down at where they are. It is a corner of the lowland near the edge. Only people who walk to the edge could see them. But once Hawk catches sight of them, he would pull the trigger without hesitation.

Lily's heart is burning with anxiety. She knows that as long as she is in Hawk's hand, Rex's movements would be restricted. However, she could not free herself from Hawk’s grip. There is still a bomb tied tightly to her body, which is enough to destroy them.

The air is still and silent. At such a night, after a torrential rain, the dimming water vapor and the mist interweave together. Every breath and every small movement would be infinitely amplified in this deathly silent forest.

Everyone keeps silent. Hawk doesn't have any allies, only with Lily as his shield. However, he would risk Lily's life only as a last resort, and he himself knows the reason behind it.

10 minutes later, Hawk seems to be tired of the endless dull waiting. He raises his hand and fires another shot. He turns around and looks behind him. The way behind is a half meter higher than the way ahead. He could make it to escape from there. Of course, the premise is that Rex would not be able to stop him.

Police officers are all over the mountain, so he has no time to waste and must get rid of Rex as soon as possible.

Hawk's mind is spinning. He doesn’t feel panicked at all, but even gets calmer. It is not the first time he has been into such a tribulation. In fact, he has been used to it.

However, when he looks behind again, Lily in his arms suddenly smashes her head into his arm with all her strength. The muzzle of the gun deviates. Hawk feels extremely nervous. He presses her firmly against the mud wall in front of him.

Rex hears a knock clearly from the lowland. He stiffens, and gets flustered because he can't see anything ahead of him.

Lily...

Rex's dense eyebrows are furrowed fiercely. He is so panicked that every hair on his head is almost going to stand upright. He puts his pistol into the pocket beside his lap and rushes towards the nearest tree to the lowland.

Once again, the bullet lands at his feet. Finally, he sees the edge of the lowland from this distance.

Without any hesitation, Rex raises his pistol to shoot at the nearest mud of the lowland. He slightly narrows his eyes and says—

"Hawk, stop resisting. I see you."

The air is quiet. Two minutes later, just as Rex thinks Hawk would not respond, a hoarse voice comes out from the lowland. "You find me much later than I thought."

As soon as Rex hears him, he looks at the southeast corner of the lowland. After confirming the location of Hawk, he could move in a larger space. The tall and strong Rex crouches down, his expression extremely serious and sharp. "You are making useless struggles. Let her go."

"Let her go?" Hawk seems to hear a joke. "She's my best shield."
