Chapter 379 Freeze To Death

Roger had exerted a great deal of effort to catch up. Seeing that Calista had reached a cliff and had nowhere else to run, he felt a sudden surge of relief. It seemed as if his eyes weren't hurting as much anymore.

He advanced step by step. In Calista's ears, she distinctly heard the sound of a handgun being cocked.

Am I going to die?

The chilly fog had long since soaked her clothes, its coldness piercing her bones. Yet at that moment, she was enveloped by a killing intent that was even colder.

It was undeniably a critical moment, yet Calista's heart remained steady, and her breathing was slow and calm. She could hear someone calling her name, but the sound seemed distant. She also heard the man's heavy, hurried breathing, which indicated he was likely exhausted as well.

With a calm demeanor, Calista asked, "Who are you? Who sent you? Why do you want to kill me?"

Roger hadn't expected that Calista, even at death's door, would remain so composed. He sneered, "You have the audacity to ask?"

The bandage over his eye was already soaked with blood. It trickled down in a scarlet stream that resembled tears of blood. At that moment, he looked as terrifying as a demon from hell, a sight unfortunately unseen by Calista.

A gust of wind blew, carrying with it the scent of blood. She surmised that he must have been injured by a hidden weapon earlier, and the wound seemed rather serious.

It's a shame. Why didn't he die?

"Why can't I ask? Even as death looms, can't I at least seek clarity?"

Upon hearing her words of self-surrender, Roger gave a cold laugh. He put away his gun and drew a knife instead.
