Not twins novel (Natasha and Kenneth) novel Chapter 719

Chapter 719 For Better Or For Worse

“Kenneth!” Mike called out to him from behind.

“My savior,” Alexia called out to him as well. Her brows inched closer together as her worries grew. Steadying herself, she surveyed the surroundings with great caution, ready to protect Kenneth at any time.

Ignoring them, Kenneth continued to walk toward Boss without hesitation.

Despite knowing that it was just a trap, Kenneth meant what he had said. Even if it was a one-in-a-million chance that it might be real, he would not let it slip.

What if it's real? If it is, Natasha will be saved. She wouldn't have to endure such excruciating pain anymore.

Because of that, he had to go.

Natasha watched as Kenneth made his way to Boss. The few strides seemed to last for an eternity.

Just as Kenneth was about to reach him, Natasha took a step forward.

She made her way toward Boss as well.

No matter what was waiting in front of them, she would rather the two of them face it together. They had to deal with it together.

She had never been one to hide behind a man. Never had been, never was, and never would be.

As Mike watched her walk toward Boss, he could not help but frown. Panic could be heard in his voice as he called out to her. “Natasha!”

Still, his voice did not stop Natasha.

Her footsteps were firm and sure.

The love that she had always desired was one where they would both face things together, for better or for worse.

No matter what the future held.

Thus, at that moment, she could not allow Kenneth to be her shield in that fight.

Alexia stood behind and kept her eyes on Natasha. As she watched Natasha inching closer to Boss, her brows drew together as mixed emotions fluttered across her gaze.

At the same time, Kenneth heard Mike's voice behind him. He stopped, inches away from Boss, immediately understanding what was happening and quickly turning around to look.

When he caught sight of Natasha moving toward him, he frowned.

“Nat...”

The corners of Natasha's lips lifted into a smile as she looked at Kenneth. Before she could say anything, she caught sight of the smirk forming on Boss' lips and the light reflecting off the barrel as Boss pointed his gun at Kenneth's back.

Widening her eyes in shock, Natasha rushed forward and lunged at Kenneth, shielding him with her body before she could even make a sound.

Bang!

Natasha held on tightly to Kenneth. Just as she was certain that it was the last of her, she realized that her body was not in pain at all.

“Alexia!” Mike's voice echoed in the silence, followed by a gunshot next to Natasha's ear.

Stunned, Natasha whipped her head around to look behind her. All she saw was Alexia standing in front of her with arms stretched wide.

Natasha was dumbfounded.

Immediately after, Alexia's body went limp as she slipped to the floor. At that sight, Natasha quickly reached out to grab the girl before she hit the floor. “Alexia, are you okay?”

Alexia sat on the floor with a tight frown. When she saw that Natasha was fine, she curled her lips upward into a smile before answering, “As long as you are.”

Natasha stared at the girl. Upon seeing Alexia's injury, Natasha immediately applied pressure on the wound with her hands.

Alexia panted heavily and gritted her teeth as she tried to get the words out. “If you're fine, my savior would not be worried or upset anymore...”

Natasha did not even feel the slightest hint of jealousy when she heard what Alexia had said. Instead, she tore off a piece of fabric from her shirt and wrapped it around Alexia's wound in a composed manner. “Hang on. We'll send you back immediately.”

With that said, Natasha raised her head to look at Kenneth. “Alexia has to get back for treatment immediately.”

By then, Kenneth's eyes had already turned bloodshot. Glaring at Boss, he lunged forward and began fighting Boss with his bare hands.

Before Boss could react, he found himself being hit by Kenneth multiple times. Once he regained his composure, he threw himself into a fistfight with Kenneth.

As the two men wrestled with each other, Gavin was at the side, clutching his wound and watching helplessly as his comrades fell dead one by one. He was certain that they had to fall back. Otherwise, they would suffer a loss so devastating that they would never recover.

At that thought, he bared his teeth and stood up with all his energy. Upon seeing Natasha wrapping up Alexia's wound, he ran toward them while pointing a gun.

“Freeze!” Gavin thundered.

Nevertheless, Kenneth seemed to have been consumed by a crazed murderous intent. He continued to throw punches at Boss with no intention of letting Boss off the hook.

Boss was already on the losing end to begin with. Combined with the fact that Kenneth was consumed by rage, Boss found himself on the ground with multiple ugly wounds covering his body.

“If you don't stop, I'm gonna shoot!” Gavin roared furiously before shooting twice at the ground.

It was only after hearing the gunshots did Kenneth seem to regain his senses and halted his actions.

Whipping his head around, Kenneth focused his bloodshot eyes on Gavin.

At that moment, Kenneth looked like a demon that had just emerged from the depths of hell. His eyes glowed red with malevolence. It was as though he would rip someone into shreds in the next second.

“You better move the gun away from her,” Kenneth threatened.

Keeping his eyes on Boss, Gavin showed no hint of fear. “Let Boss go, and I'll let them live,” he bargained.

“And if I don't?”

“Then don't blame me for showing no mercy.” With that said, Gavin placed his finger on the trigger.

“You're courting death!” Kenneth growled at Gavin.

Seeing that Kenneth did not say anything else, Gavin turned to his allies behind him. “Get Boss away from here. Now,” he urged.

A few of them immediately ran forward and helped Boss up.

When he saw that they were about to leave, Kenneth called out to them. “Wait.”

The men immediately stopped in their tracks. No one dared to take another step.

Kenneth kept his gaze on those men as he walked toward them. “You can go, but leave the antidote here!” As he spoke, he yanked the bottle out of Boss' grasp.

Despite being covered in his own blood, Boss continued to glare at Kenneth with eyes filled with fury and hatred.

“Don't look at me like that. No matter how many times we'll encounter each other in the future, you will always be defeated,” Kenneth enunciated.

Boss clenched his fists. Just as he was about to lunge forward, Gavin interfered, “What are you idiots waiting for? Send Boss away!”

The few men immediately dragged Boss into the car despite his protests.

Once Boss was inside the vehicle, his subordinate started the engine. Just then, something crossed Boss' mind. He quickly turned his head around to look behind him. “Gavin!”

In the meantime, Kenneth and Gavin were at a standstill. “Can you move your gun away now?”

Gavin curled his lips up into a sneer before throwing Natasha a look of contempt. “This woman here is nothing but trouble!” As he spoke, he aimed the gun at Natasha and pulled the trigger.

As if he had already known what Gavin was about to do, Kenneth charged forward and kicked the gun out of Gavin's hand the moment the trigger was pulled. With another kick, Gavin fell to the ground with a thud.

Staring at the man on the ground before turning to look at the gun a few meters away, Kenneth slowly walked over to pick up the weapon. Standing up slowly, he turned to look at Gavin on the ground. “Letting you die by your own gun is the biggest form of mercy I'll show you.”

Bang! As he spoke, a shot was fired right between Gavin's eyebrows.

Boss widened his eyes instantly from inside the car. “Gavin!”

Unfortunately, Gavin could no longer hear him.

The car sped off into the night as Boss kept his gaze behind him. The motionless figure on the ground became smaller and smaller until it was a blurry dot in his field of vision.

Kenneth Hamilton! I will make you pay ten thousandfold for this!
