Eudora gritted her teeth. "Fabian, know your limits!"
Fabian snorted, "Am I going too far? You're my woman. I haven't said a d*mn word when you two were being so close just now. Don't you dare lecture me about going too far!"
"You..." Eudora paused. "You're shameless!"
Fabian grabbed her wrist and said, "I'll show you what shameless is! Amos, are you kneeling or not? Else, I wouldn't mind consummating our marriage in front of you!"
Eudora felt a buzz in her head as blood surged up towards her head.
She lifted her leg in a fit and attacked Fabian's private part. However, evidently, her skills left much to be desired.
It might have been sufficient if she was dealing with inexperienced hooligans who didn't know anything about martial arts. However, Fabian had been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and her efforts were futile. She did not stand a chance at all.
Amos could taste the blood in his mouth.
"Hold on!"
Fabian finally smiled. "What's the matter? Have you made up your mind?"
He then turned his head and looked down at Amos. He pulled Eudora over and smiled.
"Didn't you say that he is a man of indomitable spirit? I'll have you witness today how such a man kneels at my feet!"
Eudora couldn't break free from his grip, and tears were sliding down the corners of her eyes.
"Amos..."
"Good girl, close your eyes. Don't look."
Eudora sniffed. "No! I want to," She wanted to see how this man would do his best for her, and how he would abandon his dignity for her.
That way, she would be able to understand that in this world, she could doubt anyone apart from him. She would never have a trace of doubt about his sincerity.
"Let's begin!" Fabian said.
Amos walked towards Fabian slowly and gradually got down on one knee.
Fabian laughed out loud and said, "Amos, finally, I have you at my feet!"
While Fabian was caught off guard, Amos suddenly stretched his hand out and pulled Eudora over. Fabian quickly reacted. Just as he was about to retaliate, a pitch- black muzzle was aimed at him.
"Don't move!"
Fabian was slightly stunned, and he smiled. "As expected of you. I should have thought that you wouldn't beg for mercy so easily!"
"You lost this time, Fabian!" Amos lowered his head and said to the hidden microphone in front of his chest.
"Come in! The hostage has been saved!"
Fabian sneered, "Do you think that it's going to be that easy? Callum!"
Callum had already entered the room with Vivian tied up. Fabian was slightly stunned when he saw Vivian. He did not expect that Vivian would fall into Amos' hands too.
He had initially ordered Callum to tie up the bombs. However, it seemed that he didn't need to anymore.
Eudora was taken aback. "Vivian, why did you..."
Vivian smiled at Eudora. "I'm fine. You don't have to worry about me."
Fabian snorted. He whispered as Vivian and Callum made their way to him, "Are you sure that you'll be fine? Callum, remind me again, how does the organization treat its traitors?"
"Yes, you heard me," Vivian smiled bitterly. "I used to think that I hated you so much that I couldn't wait to kill you. Because you killed my parents and my brother.
So when I knew that I was pregnant with your child, I really wanted to terminate the pregnancy. However, in this world, I have no relatives, and he will be my only family in the future. So, I took him to see you."
The other three were all stunned, and the room went completely silent.
Callum lowered his head and stared at Vivian's belly. His face was filled with doubt and confusion.
"My... child?"
"Yes!" Vivian nodded. "This is your child. Do you want to touch him?"
Callum trembled and reached out, and then he froze in the air. "Are... you still willing to give birth to my child?"
"This is my child as well," Vivian replied.
She slowly took Callum's hand and put it on her stomach.
The intimacy and warmth gradually made Callum lose his vigilance. His hands were about to touch Vivian's belly when she suddenly grabbed the gun from his hand.
Then came the sound of a gunshot.
His hand that was about to touch her belly left slowly. Callum looked at the gun and saw blood flowing out of his chest. His face was filled with shock and disbelief.
Vivian's tears flowed down her chin and dripped on the handle of the pistol in her hand.
"I could have had a brilliant life and a bright future, but all of it was destroyed by you. Isn't it enough to have me taken away and turned into a pet? Why did you hurt my parents? Although my parents weren't killed by you, they still died because of your subordinates. Even my brother, who is both good-natured and talented, was led astray by your subordinates and got addicted to gambling!"
With a loud gunshot, Callum fell straight onto the ground. His pair of eyes still staring rigidly at the belly. Vivian snorted and stated, "I am indeed pregnant, but rest assured that I will definitely get rid of him after this! Also, I came here with the sole intent of killing you! I don't have any intention of letting you see your child!"
