Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine

Chapter 41:In the serene hills near Athton, where the air was fresh and the landscape a lush embrace of nature, Allison and Kellan shared an unusually peaceful silence.

They worked in unison, packing the dried bamboo shoots into Kellan's wheelchair, savoring this rare moment of tranquility.

It's time to go back, Allison said, putting her hands on the wheelchair, ready to push Kellan.

But suddenly his movement stopped.

His instincts, sharpened by experience with lethal threats, kicked in.

Allison pushed the wheelchair forward, guiding Kellan to safety.

A man dressed all in black appeared out of nowhere, pointing a gun at Kellan.

Don't blame me, Kellan.

You've made too many enemies, he scoffed.

Just as the man was about to shoot, a cold wind blew through.

With a deft lateral movement, Allison struck her wrist, sending the weapon spiraling off target.

Come on! Allison ordered urgently, her voice strained with worry.

The assassin's skill was surprisingly professional, a rare trait these days.

Allison, although bewildered, focused on ensuring Kellan's safety first so she could confront the threat without hesitation.

Kellan, brows furrowed in worry, gripped the handles of the wheelchair with a grip that bulged the veins in his hands.
