My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 398

Frantically, Stanley went through the dead bodies spread out all over the floor. Seeing the bullet shells scattered around, he tried his best to suppress his urge to throw up while he tried to find someone who was still alive.

From the broken parts of the bodies, he found the emblem of the Mitchells on them and he reckoned that the people who were dead were all from the Mitchells.

Men from the Mitchells! Stanley began flipping through the dead bodies like a mad man and from the dismembered parts, he finally found one which was complete and covered in blood. When he saw that person, he felt that the sky had collapsed and was speechless for a long while from the shock.

Still dressed in the white shirt from earlier when they parted ways, Sean’s shirt was now drenched red, just as his face, and his eyes were shut tightly as he lay among the pile of dead bodies, not moving an inch.

Frowning, Abel stepped into the sea of dismembered bodies, finding this scene to be highly familiar. Six years ago, his team of well-equipped elites were ready to attack with a comprehensive plan to capture the Phantom Wolf and get rid of the remaining forces.

Initially, they thought that they could crush them with one blow; little did they know that what awaited them was a massacre.

The craftiness and brutality of the other party was beyond their imagination. With his own eyes, he witnessed his comrades falling one after another. People who were alive just a second ago became lifeless on the ground in a blink of an eye, including his beloved wife.

Although he didn’t know if the people on the ground were Natasha’s or Sean’s, Abel knew that they were all from the Mitchells.

They faced their savage enemy without even thinking of surrendering, using their bodies as shields in what looked like an attempt to protect someone. As he walked in the blood-soaked mud, he was fully aware that he was stepping on the blood of his family with every step he took.

Despite the fact that he had left the Mitchells by faking his death, it was undeniable that the blood of the Mitchells still flowed in his veins. In that moment, he could feel the blood in him boiling as he saw red, a brutal look in his eyes. Reaching the middle of the bodies, he saw who the men were protecting—Sean and Natasha.

Still holding Sean in his arms, Stanley could now speak as Abel lowered himself to feel Sean’s pulse. Then, he patted Stanley on the shoulder and assured, “It’s alright, he’s still alive. Send him to the hospital quickly.”

It was then that Stanley snapped out of his daze and got men to carry Sean out so they could open up his shirt to check on his wounds.

Fortunately, Sean was fine and he regained consciousness after some rescue efforts. On the other hand, Natasha seemed to have been shot and was carried away.

Opening his eyes, Sean saw the bodies strewn all over the ground. Not only the men he brought with him were dead, even Natasha’s men had lost their lives. Furthermore, they all died without their bodies intact.

Just a little more than ten minutes ago, they were all alive and kicking. In order to protect himself and Natasha, they had used their bodies as shields to block the enemy’s bullets so that they could buy them time to escape. Sadly…

Sean shut his eyes with immense sorrow, two streams of tears flowing from the corners of his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, they had turned bloodshot. Gripping Stanley’s hand firmly, he was breathless when he spoke because he was also wounded.

However, his delicate face, which was prettier than a woman’s, was filled with unprecedented heroism and resoluteness. “Stan, I’m sorry that I was not able to save Sophia.”

Choking a couple of times, Stanley yelled at him, “How can you say such silly things at a time like this! It’s already a miracle that you’re alive!” Just a couple of minutes ago, he had thought that Sean was dead!

Sean struggled as he described what happened, “Earlier… I brought some men with me to negotiate with Natasha, so that she would release Sophia if I brought her the amulet. Originally, she had agreed that she wouldn’t hurt Sophia as long as I gave up the amulet to her.
