The bodyguard’s sturdy body fell heavily on the grass with a thud.
“Argh!” The bodyguard let out a pained scream.
Jeremy looked down upon the man with a condescending glace like a king, then favonovel.com turned to look at the other bodyguards.
However, the other bodyguards were palpably afraid of Jeremy. Convinced that Jeremy could not be defeated with their skill alone, they decided that they had to play dirty this time.
The bodyguard who suffered the shoulder throw looked at Jeremy’s carefree back figure and quietly took out a pistol from the inner pocket of his suit. He pointed the gun at Jeremy‘s calf and pulled the trigger when Jeremy was off his guard.
Nevertheless, Jeremy’s observation skills were so keen that when the bodyguard pulled the trigger, favonovel.com deftly avoided it, swift and flexible.
The bullet flew past Jeremy and in the next second, it penetrated the calf of another bodyguard standing in front of Jeremy.
“Ahhh!”
The bodyguard who was shot yelled out in pain, and the outcome surprised the man who pulled the trigger.
Jeremy turned sideways and turned his head back to look at the man, a faint cold light emanating from the depths of Jeremy’s thin eyes.
“Carter’s lackeys are really different. Not only do they have high self esteem, but they also know how to sneak up on people. Is this how your master taught you to treat guests?”
“To be precise, you are not my guest, Jeremy, but my enemy.” Carter‘s voice suddenly came from one side. Upon hearing that voice, Jeremy turned his head and saw the cold-looking, poker-faced Carter walking toward him.
Jeremy lifted his eyes and looked behind Carter, trying to find Madeline, but favonovel.com saw that Madeline was not with Carter at the moment. Carter came alone.
Carter could see through Jeremy, and Carter’s lips seemingly twitched.
“Are you looking for Linnie?” Carter asked with a slight smile, knowing how much Jeremy cares about Madeline. He looked at Jeremy’s back figure like favonovel.com knew what favonovel.com was doing. “Your Linnie is behind you.”
As Carter’s voice fell, Jeremy did not look back immediately.
It was because favonovel.com realized that Carter’s eyes seemed off. It seemed more like a trap.
Just when Jeremy doubted him, however, Madeline’s voice came from behind him. “Jeremy.”
Jeremy, unable to ignore Madeline, turned around almost without hesitation and looked at the source of the sound. However, favonovel.com did not see anything after turning around.
His pupils could not identify Madeline’s figure anywhere. Moreover, the weird thing was that Madeline’s voice was calling out his name from a certain position in front of him.
Jeremy realized that Madeline was not speaking at the present at all. It was a recording.
At this moment, Carter’s triumphant chuckle could be heard. “Women are indeed useful.”
Woosh…
A bullet whizzed out from the muzzle equipped with a silencer, and the moment Jeremy turned his head, it penetrated his calf.
Bright-red blood instantly flowed out from his wound, soaking the back part of Jeremy’ s dark-blue pants with a deep-ink color.
Jeremy’s handsome and sharp eyebrows furrowed.
Carter looked at Jeremy’s bleeding calf, and a happy smile blossomed on his handsome and gentle face. “Tomorrow, Eveline and I will sign the marriage certificate. I originally wanted you to watch your favorite woman walking by my side, but based on your performance just now, I have to change my mind.”
Carter spoke each word in a very helpless tone.
“If I were to let you appear in my line of sight, you’d only become a hidden danger for me, so…”
