Inherit Billions (Seraphina and Orion)

Chapter 240 The Pirates Attack

"Run into the forest!"

Seraphina spoke slowly, but her feet were constantly moving.

"Aren't those savages there?"

"They're kinder than pirates!"

True enough!

The two ran without looking back, their steps determined and resolute. The cold wind lashed against their faces, biting and painful.

They ran breathlessly and dared not stop for a second. The situation was far more perilous than it had been that night.

They could hear the chaotic footsteps and wild laughter of the pursuers behind them, along with the occasional gunshot warning.

They were the targets of the hunt.

Seraphina had never felt so grounded in her life. Every nerve in her body trembled with terror.
