Chapter 389 Doomed As Suitor; Destined As Beloved (Part Two)
"I will drag you to hell if I die!" He growled the words, and it felt like a hammer smashing her heart. For a while, her brain turned blank.
At the foot of the mountain...
Through her night vision binoculars, Jenifer watched Brian and Molly flirting. Her lips twitched with a hint of mockery as she put the binoculars down and took her phone out. The call went through and with an icy tone, she said, "Mr. Yan, I've taken care of the first part of the plan. The rest is up to you."
Justin chuckled but his face hardened. "Ah, so we can pull out two thorns in our flesh this time. Then we can relax," he said.
Her laughter stopped him momentarily. "It's too early to jump to that conclusion. I don't think Mr. Brian Long came here alone," Jenifer advised him.
She ended the call with a brittle laugh. Jenifer walked down the hilltop opposite Phoenix Mountain. Everything she did had a purpose. After being told Molly had left the hospital, she borrowed Edgar's car and drove around town in search of the woman. When she found her, there was only one goal, and that was to let Brian know Molly got off from Edgar's car.
She knew very little about Mr. Brian Long. But she knew what men were like, especially when it came to women they love. They wanted to control everything, and jealousy consumed them where their beloved was concerned. No matter how smart they were, men were all the same when it came to love. Jenifer was sure Brian would come to Molly's rescue as long as he still loved her. Even if he knew he could be falling into a trap.
She kept running the plan in her head as she made her way down to the bottom of the hill. Someone was running towards her. Jenifer halted when she recognized who it was.
Edgar slowed down when he passed Jenifer but continued to rush up to the mountain.
"It's too late," Jenifer called out with a sneer as she watched him slowly take off. Shots continued to be fired without pause, making Edgar pause. "You should know the fighting between the conservative and reformist factions have been very intense. Brian stirred things up, so both factions want him killed."
Her words caught Edgar's attention. He suddenly turned around and looked at her fiercely through his glasses. "I don't care about him. But how dare you use Molly to seduce him! I promise you this. I will kill you if anything happens to Molly," he yelled at Jenifer.
The threat given, Edgar ran towards the mountain without turning back. He left Jenifer clenching her fists and face distorted in fury.
As she watched him disappear, she growled, "Let's see who will win!" Then she sprinted towards the mountain, too. As one of the excellent soldiers in the female special force, Jenifer could compete with men when it came to physical capabilities. Her advantage over Edgar was her familiarity with the terrain. It didn't take long for her to catch up with him, even with his headstart. When she was less than five meters away from Edgar, Jenifer put on a burst of speed then jumped to kick him from behind.
The man sensed something wrong was about to happen before Jenifer's legs landed on his back. He managed to twist his body to avoid the full impact of the hit. "Don't make me hate you!" he yelled at her between gasps of breath.
"Hate me?" Jenifer grunted. "That's still better than you forgetting me!" She was determined to block Edgar's ascent. She must thwart his attempt to reach Phoenix Mountain. Otherwise, he would ruin her plan.
His training in the Wolf SWAT Team was still no match for Jenifer's determination to subdue him. She played her ace and locked Edgar in a hold so masterful that he couldn't break free.NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
The fight between them was intense, but the situation in Phoenix Mountain was even more thrilling.
Eric knew something was going on after learning that Molly met with Edgar yesterday. Then Tony reported that they lost track of Brian through the GPS location system when he reached the foot of Phoenix Mountain. The signals around the mountain were all jammed now. In A City, only one person other than Mr. Shen was powerful enough to do this: Justin.
"Young Master," Lenny approached with a frown. "We are unable to take over the foot of the mountain," he reported.
Shadow Organization was a group established to safeguard Dragon Island. But by no means could it take on a special force. Besides, its people in A City was very limited, far less than their rivals.
This update was very disturbing, and Eric's face turned bleak. Brian and Molly, both trapped in the mountain, were very important to him. The way things were going, no one from the team could come to their rescue. Still, he had to do something.
As they reached the half-way point, the air was becoming heavier making it more difficult to breathe. Beneath the sweat, Brian's distinct features remained sharp. He kept advancing with Molly right behind him. He knew the situation was becoming increasingly dangerous the closer they were to the enemies.
Nearly breathless, Molly couldn't understand why Brian refused to head down the mountain even though it was more dangerous at the bottom than at the top. The girl was trying not to imagine how disastrous it would be for her and Brian if they were trapped there.
Suddenly, Brian seemed to have read her mind. He asked, "Do you hear gunfire down there?"
"Yes," Molly replied while biting her lips. The sound of gunshots nearly made her heart jump.
"Our men down there must have thwarted their main firepower," Brian said. He was hoping it would finally spell death for the enemies. "Now, its time," he grunted.
