Wrong marriage and sweet love (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 1870

Chapter 1870: Buying Time

Felix desperately shook Vicki, questioning her loudly.

At this moment, Luther gave a signal to Mr. Ball.

Seren was dead, and now was the best time to take control of the situation.

Mr. Ball understood and immediately had his men surround the area, quickly subduing all the men in black.

Vicki was almost dizzy from Felix's shaking.

"Stop shaking me. I'll throw up if you keep doing that!" Vicki muttered lowly. Being pregnant made her uncomfortable, constantly feeling nauseous. Felix's shaking made her even more uncomfortable, causing her to retch repeatedly.

She pushed Felix away, leaning to the side, feeling waves of nausea. Since she hadn't eaten anything, she couldn't vomit, only feeling the discomfort of dry heaves.

Felix quickly soothed her by gently patting her back, helping her relax.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Should we go to the hospital?"

"No, don't touch me. I won't feel uncomfortable if you don't touch me!" Vicki waved her arm backward, pushing Felix away. Any kind of touch would only make her feel worse. She had been enduring it to hide her pregnancy, but now she couldn't bear it any longer.

Meanwhile, Cloud stood by, looking down at the two people embracing each other on the ground. Suddenly, he felt like an outsider with no connection to them. Even though he still held a gun in his hand, capable of threatening them at any moment, they didn't acknowledge his existence. They acted as if he was insignificant, one angry and the other complaining, just like a normal couple should be. And he was the one who was unnecessary.

After Mr. Ball and Luther had their men control the surroundings, they quietly approached Cloud.

As Mr. Ball was about to approach Cloud from behind, trying to subdue him from an advantageous angle, Cloud contorted his body into an almost impossible position, evading Mr. Ball's attack.

Immediately after, Cloud pulled out his gun and aimed it at the back of Felix's head.

Mr. Ball dared not move anymore, muttering under his breath, "Impressive evasion, Cloud. I underestimated you. Don't act rashly. Let's have a good discussion. Look around you, Seren is dead, Seren's people and the ones you brought with you are all under our control. The helicopter has also been grounded and controlled by us. You alone can't handle so many of us. How about we talk about the terms?"

Cloud coldly glanced at Mr. Ball but didn't say anything.

Mr. Ball cleared his throat and continued persuading, "Since you killed Seren yourself, it means we might not be enemies, right? Put down your gun, and let's talk."

Although Felix had a gun pointed at the back of his head, he remained calm instead of panicking.

Even with a gun against him, he slowly turned his head, fearlessly exposing his forehead to the muzzle. He looked at Cloud, his words clear as he spoke, "Thank you."
