To Ashlyn’s surprise, the woman had gone crazy to the extent of smudging poison all over her body. She regretted her action——she shouldn’t have underestimated her foe.
“Lilian, you’d better give me the antidote at once! Otherwise, I’ll kill you!” Ashlyn warned Lilian, fastening her grip on the latter’s chin. Consequently, Lilian’s face puckered due to the racking sensation she felt.
“Ashlyn, to hell you go! No one can possibly save you because I have purchased these from those affiliated with the NN Terrorist Group. There’s no antidote to the poison. Soon, you’ll turn into a hideous-looking old woman. I’m sure Mr. Nolan will be disgusted by your looks! Hahaha!” Lilian laughed to her heart’s content.
Crimson blood gushed out of the crazy woman’s nostrils and mouth. All of a sudden, the stench of blood permeated the air.
Ashlyn moved away from her immediately. Her eyes widened in disbelief. “Since you have smudged the poison all over your body, the toxin has long made it into your system. Therefore...”
“I’d rather die along with you! Once you’re dead, Mr. Nolan will keep me in his mind forever... I-I’m sure he will avenge me... H-He definitely will avenge me...” Lilian puked a mouthful of blood.
Bam!
A gunshot could be heard.
Lilian curled up on the ground in pain while blood gushed out of her chest; she had been shot in the chest.
Ashlyn turned around and saw Lucas nearby. Exuding a menacing aura, he stared at Lilian on the ground.
“Lucas? That’s your maid.” Ashlyn frowned. “She has to bear the consequences of her actions since she has hurt you!” The moment Lucas finished his sentence, he sprinted over with his slender legs, stretched his arms, and held Ashlyn.
“Are you okay?” Lucas asked in a serious tone, expressing his concerns.
Ashlyn shook her head. With her eyes on Lilian, who was drenched in blood, she told Lucas, “No matter what, she will die soon because she has been poisoned.”
Lilian lost herself gaping at Lucas’s stunning visage in awe, as if she weren’t aware that he was the one who had shot her in the chest. Drenched in blood with a horrifying hole through her chest, she started muttering as she stretched her arm in an attempt to reach Lucas.
As if she wasn’t aware of her pathetic condition, she murmured, “M-Mr. Nolan, have you come to bring me back with you?”
Like a leech, Lilian wriggled her way over to Lucas with all her might in spite of the difficulties.
Ashlyn was afraid Lilian would poison Lucas, so she stepped in front of him instinctively and bellowed, “Get the hell out of our sight, Lilian!”
“B****, you’re the one who should get the hell out of our sight!” Lilian rebuked with an atrocious look.
On the other hand, Lucas was stunned for a moment as he stared at Ashlyn’s back. He did not expect her to react this way.
Is she trying to protect me? I can’t believe it... She actually got in Lilian’s way without any hesitation.
It seems like she hos reocted instinctively to defend me.
All olong, Lucos deemed protecting her beloved womon one of his duties due to his identity ond sociol stotus.
