A Film Queen

Chapter 354

Unfortunately, just as she was trying to get closer, the person behind her quickly pulled out a gun, effectively stopping her midway towards Raiden.

D*rn it! They were ready for anything; she was just a bit too slow.

Milly bit her lip, eyeing the goons starting to surround her, quickly trying to figure out what to do next.

She basically had two choices. Either give up and deal with even more eyes on her now that they knew what she was capable of, making any escape later a no-go. Or, she could leap and try to flip the situation in her favour.

Feeling like there wasn’t much she had to lose, she hoped they’d hesitate to hurt her. Staying alive meant there was still a chance. Maybe she could pull this off.

Seeing capture as the only option, she shot in the dark.

Milly wasn’t the type to wonder if she made the right call.

In a quick move, before anyone could touch her, she gave a sharp kick to the closest guy, sending him flying.

That move really got everyone heated.

“She just kicked me!”

“Let’s get her, everyone!”

“Can you believe she’d attack us? She’s got a death wish!”

Watching them put away their guns and come at her with fists ready, Milly couldn’t help but smirk.

Alright, it looks like I played my cards!
