No 1 Supreme Warrior novel Chapter 4

Silence.

Dead silence.

Except for Leo, everyone was staring dumbfounded at the mysterious woman now standing behind him. Four thoughts came to their minds.

Who was she?

Where did she come from?

How could she be so powerful?

What was her relationship with Leo?

Before these questions could be answered, their faces became filled with deep fear.

Before they could even see her attack, Chris's bodyguards had already been taken care of.

Moreover, judging from the varying level of damage to the guards' joints, it was not difficult to see that this woman had been lenient on them.

If she really wanted to kill them, they were under no doubt that she could have done so easily.

This made Caroline and the rest of the Fords look at Leo in shock.

It was apparent that this woman was protecting him. They would not believe it if she said that she had nothing to do with him!

"You must be sick of living to dare attack him!"

Nadine's voice was as cold as ice and her crimson eyes were fixed on Chris as if she was looking at a dead man.

"Who... Who are you?"

Chris was so scared that his legs were trembling and he could not even speak properly.

He could tell that he was on the brink of death.

"Why did you come?"

On the contrary, Leo was frowning in displeasure. He scolded, "Don't meddle in my business. Get out."

His words made everyone even more nervous. Caroline even glared at Leo and gestured at him to keep quiet.

They did not know anything about this murderous woman who had shown up out of nowhere. What if Leo angered her and she ended up killing everyone?

To everyone’s surprise, however, the woman was not angry at all. She even lowered her head with a nervous expression.

"Yes."

Nadine then disappeared without a trace. It was as though she had never been here.

Even though Nadine had left, the tense atmosphere within the room did not disappear, but grew stronger instead.

The Fords began to see Leo in a new light. They looked at him not with disgust or disdain but with shock and awe.

Raymond, on the other hand, was shaking all over. His forehead was sweating profusely.

He was shocked that a word from Leo was enough to make that assassin-like woman leave. Was she one of Leo's subordinates?

"Leo, I have a question for you," Rebecca said, stammering. She squeezed out a weak smile. "Is that woman your subordinate?"

The others looked nervous, for fear that Leo would say yes. They had been so harsh on him and even wanted to kick him out of their home. What if he wanted revenge on them?

"Mom, did that scare you?"

Leo helped Rebecca and Caroline back to their feet and smiled. "She's my guardian. I'm a witness for an important case."

"I see."

"I knew it. How could Leo be doing so well as to have such a powerful woman as his subordinate? Hahaha..."

Leo's denial prompted the others to look at each other and exchange stiff smiles. Relief finally washed over them.

That powerful woman was only guarding Leo, presumably because of his involvement in an important case. It was a common scene in movies, where the police would arrange for experts to protect important witnesses from being assassinated.

"Important case?"

Caroline became suspicious. "Don’t tell me you’ve been involved in this case for five years?"

"Pretty much, yeah."

"Oh..."

Realization finally dawned on Caroline. This explained why Leo would return as a skilled fighter.
