You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 1743

Chapter 1743: Irreconcilable Hatred

"Ugh." Felix groaned as he was struck in the chest, the pain taking his breath away momentarily.

He tasted the metallic tang of blood in his throat.

He immediately retched and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. It was clear that Cloud had intended to take his life today. Damn it, Felix didn't enjoy fighting. It had been a long time since he had experienced the pain of being injured. There was a difference between competition and real combat. Moreover, he hadn't trained his skills in a long time.

Felix took several steps backward, steadying himself. He bent his body, trying to alleviate the pain from the earlier strike.

Cloud's gaze turned frigid as ice, his fists clenched, and the veins on his temples bulged, almost on the verge of bursting.

It was an obvious expression of hatred, poorly concealed.

"That's right, I'm Cloud, the leader of OGW. So what if you know? In hell, you won't have anyone to speak to!" Cloud laughed coldly.

Felix squinted his eyes. Cloud's expression was unusual, clearly burning with hatred. This was not simple; it was not just because of Vicki. There must be other reasons. Suzuki had mentioned the Saunders family multiple times, suggesting that Cloud was familiar with them.

"Do you know me? What grudge do you have against the Saunders family?" Felix asked while stalling for time, quickly thinking of a strategy. He wouldn't necessarily be Cloud's match in a head-on confrontation.

"Have we met before?" Felix asked again when Cloud remained silent.

"Stop the nonsense. You don't need to know. Just die!" Cloud no longer wasted words and swiftly kicked towards Felix as he got up.

Felix had merely diverted Cloud's attention earlier. Suddenly, he lifted himself onto his tiptoes, gently flicking the ground, causing numerous pebbles to be sent flying towards Cloud.

Cloud instinctively shielded his eyes.

Little did he know that Felix had seized the opportunity to strike, landing a punch directly on Cloud's chest.

Cloud winced in pain, retreating several steps. Damn it, he had been careless. Felix had a few tricks up his sleeve, and Cloud had underestimated him. He had thought he could easily deal with Felix, but it seemed unlikely now.

Simultaneously, Felix drew his pistol from his waist, pointing it directly at Cloud's forehead. Luckily, he had brought his gun with him today. The earlier fight had been too intense, and he hadn't even had a chance to draw his gun.

Finally finding an opening in Cloud's defenses, Felix moved swiftly to draw his gun.

His marksmanship was decent, although not on par with Joyce's exceptional skill. After all, the Saunders family owned the largest handgun collection museum. The limited edition Pavona Witness pistol that Joyce wielded had been snatched away by Luther from him.

Cloud furrowed his brow. Although he hadn't anticipated this, he believed that a mere pistol couldn't harm him. He had stationed his men in the surroundings, and Felix probably hadn't noticed them. The one who couldn't escape was Felix himself.

Felix firmly stated, "I don't know how you're related to Vicki or what your past grievances with the Saunders family are. I don't care. All I know is that she is my woman now. She belongs to me, and you have no connection to her. OGW is a wicked organization, and since you've appeared in Khebury, the Saunders family will never stand idly by. I will eradicate you completely. Just wait! Hand Vicki over, and maybe I'll consider letting you go."

Cloud laughed, "A wicked organization, huh? Talking as if the Saunders family is a group of righteous individuals. Do you know why Vicki was sentenced to probation for who she was involved with? How she suffered because of the Saunders family? She will never be genuinely with you!"
