“Don’t you find that question hilarious?” Jameson chuckled and flung her hand away. “If I’d known youwere this shallow, I would never have rescued you all those years ago.”
With a slam of the door, Jameson left the room.
Amber crumpled into a heap, weeping painfully and feeling more. pathetic than the torn pieces of fabricon the floor.
Cold island rain fell on Jasper as he continued moving forward. Jonah walked beside him in silence,secretly surprised at how swift. Jasper was.
Jasper’s military years did him well. His training as a special ops soldier had neither worn downthroughout his CEO career nor dulled his steely will.
As long as the circumstances deemed necessary, Jasper would eagerly dive back onto the battlefield.
Jonah couldn’t help but admit that Jasper was the only other man in this world who could protectAlyssa besides himself.
“Pity,” Jonah sighed.
“What?” Jasper asked, having heard Jonah even though they were moving fast.
Jonah was about to speak when he suddenly fell sideways.
A spray of bullets flew through the air where they were standing seconds ago, right after Jasper shovedJonah to the ground. The bullets left deep pits in the dirt.
Though Jonah had had his fill of encounters in his life, the close brush with death still made cold sweatbead on his forehead. One second slower, and he would’ve been riddled with holes. Jasper saved him!
“Are you alright?” Jasper asked.
“Yes, I’m fine,” Jonah replied, heaving a sigh of relief. “Thank you.”
“There’s an ambush around here somewhere. We can’t keep our guard down in the slightest right now,or else Lyse might lose two of her loved ones tonight,” Jasper said. His eyes scanned theirsurroundings in wide alert.
He couldn’t really see, even with his soldiers’ flashlight, but his night vision and hearing were stillphenomenal, making him able to identify the threats in their vicinity.
“Mr. Jasper, Mr. Taylor, we’re being ambushed! Hurry up and-”
A soldier cried, running toward them. He was quickly shot in the chest with a bullet, making him buckleto the ground, eyes wide.
What followed was a relentless wave of bullets that attacked every single one of Jasper and Jonah’smen. They swiftly scattered for safety in the pitch-black jungle, no longer able to cover Jasper andJonah.
The two quickly ducked behind a large boulder and readied their firearms.
They swiftly killed four enemy shooters, but the situation remained dangerous.
“What’s going on? Did Jeffrey’s men find out about us?” Jonah asked, switching mags as he glancedbehind the boulder. “Our whereabouts were kept secret. No one would’ve been told about it!”
“But it still seems like someone has let that information slip tonight!”novelbin
Just then, another round of bullets were fired at them. They flew past Jasper’s ear.
Jonah’s heart clenched at the sound. Jasper remained calm, however, and quickly fired two shotsbehind them, killing yet another enemy shooter.
Jasper really was experienced on the battlefield, being able to hold himself steady and react calmly.
No wonder Alyssa fell in love with him so deeply.
“Who could have done that?” Jonah hurriedly asked.
“There might be other people in Cyrris besides Sophia that Jeffrey is in cahoots with, and they arehelping him right now. They might even be taking the opportunity to kill both you and me,” Jasperreplied.
For some reason, a name Jasper didn’t want to think about surfaced in his mind-Jameson Schmidt.
