Too Late to Hold Me Back novel Chapter 147

Lucas was stunned. “How could Mira be so powerful?”

He regretted not going himself. If he had been there, he could have caught Mira off guard and knocked her out with a tranquilizer dart.

“So, she should just let you people do whatever you want to her?”

“What’s wrong with you, Ethan? You go out once and come back with such a short fuse.”

“Don’t you think we’ve become unrecognizable?

Since we’ve already cut ties, she has nothing to do with us.

Now you want to use her, so you try to kidnap her? Did you ever consider her feelings?

If I were her, I would have done the same thing.”

“But we can’t just watch Mara die.

Besides, we wouldn’t be using her blood for free. We’d give her plenty of compensation.”

“What does Mara’s life or death have to do with Mira?

As for your so-called compensation, she doesn’t need it.

If this continues, the relationship between her and the Mercer family will turn into one of mortal enemies.”

At this, Lacey suddenly interjected, “Mortal enemies, then! For Mara’s sake, we have to take her blood.”

Ethan stared at Lacey for a moment. “In that case, my dear mother, you can go if you want. I won’t.”

“Ethan, do you really want your sister to die that badly?”

“This is absurd.

By the way, Mira is not to be trifled with. Her bodyguard took down those six masters in a single move, beating them half to death.

If I had been even a little more stubborn today, I would have ended up just like them.”

With that, Ethan left for his company, no longer bothering with the hospital's affairs.

After her class, Mira went to the company with Owen. Today, she mainly wanted to check on the employees they had recently hired.

She just didn’t expect that as they passed a certain stretch of road, they would run into a car accident up ahead, with police tape blocking the way.

Owen turned to take a detour down another road.

Owen found her nervous state amusing.

“It’s okay. While I may not be on Master’s level, I can still protect you here in Melvion City.

Are you carrying that many potions on you?

Master is so biased. He’s always so stingy when I ask for potions, but he gives you so many!”

“I’m in more danger right now, so I need them more.

Besides, I’m an aspiring chemist now. There are many potions I can make myself.”

“Alright, study hard. When you become a senior apothecary, I’ll just come to you whenever I need potions.”

“Then you’d better protect me well now.”

Because of her past life’s experience, Mira was especially vigilant.

Sure enough, it wasn't long before Mira sensed a car tailing them.

It was identical to the vehicle from her memory.

However, in her previous life, the incident had happened a year later.
