Oh No! They're Salivating Over Me! novel Chapter 5

Daphne was walking slowly, so she dodged a bullet. However, Lenko was not as lucky. He was sent flying because of the explosion.

Because the explosion was silent and was within a controlled area, robots in the distance could not detect that an explosion had happened on this end.

In the blink of an eye, a man in a black suit that made him look like a bodyguard jumped over the wall from the outside. Water was dripping from his body onto the sand.

Britney was incredibly diligent and stayed by Daphne's side the whole time.

Seeing that the assassin was getting closer and closer, Daphne protected her belly with both her hands. She kept calling out to the system in her head, telling it that nobody would be completing its mission if she were dead.

She did not get a response from the system, but the assassin suddenly left voluntarily.

Was he not holding a gun and trying to kill them earlier? Why did he suddenly leave?

"Stay right here, miss. I'll call for the troop to come over," said Britney.

Daphne immediately went forward to check on Lenko's injuries after Britney left.

He had a few scratches on his face, but his clothes were completely torn. Fortunately, he protected himself with his psionic strength.

Britney used the Robo to contact the troop. A flying car arrived in half a minute, and a troop of soldiers stepped out. A few of them quickly carried Lenko into the car while the others followed the tracks and went after the assassin.

…

The dim room suddenly became bright because a subordinate opened the door. Immediately after that, the room was covered in darkness again.

Eric glanced at the curtains that were drawn. Herkoen would always lock himself in darkness whenever he was in a bad mood. Then, Eric greeted Herkoen with respect.

The Beastkin's vision would not be affected by darkness, but Herkoen did not even bat an eye at Eric. He had a cigarette between his fingers. He could not even begin to think that the woman from that night was still alive and that she was pregnant.

The reason they had a member of the coalition infiltrate Hildi was to kill all those people who were detained. They also wanted to intimidate the people in Hildi, which included Daphne.

However, after the feed was transmitted and he saw that she was pregnant, he told the assassin to leave.

At that moment, he was regretting terribly that he had suddenly spared her life. His psionic strength was Rank SSS, which meant he had no hope of having a child in the future. That woman must be pregnant with another male's child.

Then, he panned the feed until it was showing an image of Daphne, and he said, "Kill her."

Eric felt that she looked very familiar, and then it hit him. He was very shocked as well. "Mr. Wenley, if she's really pregnant with your—"

"That's impossible," said Herkoen.

Eric lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry. I misspoke."

"Forget it. She's in Lester's manor. Their defense will definitely be stronger after this attack. Bring some men along, and I'll end her life myself."

"Yes, Mr. Wenley," Eric replied.

…

Daphne, who was far away in Hildi, had no idea that the father of her child wanted to kill her himself. All she could worry about at that moment was Lenko.

He was a very sincere young man. He would not look down on others because of their family status, and he treated Daphne with sincerity.

She asked the Robo from time to time if Lenko had returned from Hildi Beastkin Hospital or if there was any news about him.

The Robo would answer her the same thing every time. "I'm sorry. I don't have any information about Mr. Waltzan for now. I'll inform you as soon as I receive any information."

Britney comforted Daphne, saying, "He's a good person, so he'll be fine. Besides, when I protected you, I saw him using his psionic strength to defend himself. He probably won't be seriously injured. Don't be too sad. It's not good for your child."

"Let's hope so." Daphne looked at the scenery outside the window, lamenting that things were simply unpredictable in this world.

At that moment, the Robo said, "Colonel Lester is back."

Lester was back?

Daphne went to his study with the help of Britney.

The study was filled with classified information. Machines would have a chance to be hacked, no matter how advanced they were. That was why soldiers were standing guard on either side of the door instead.

"The study is for permitted personnel only. Please leave at once," said a soldier.
