Chapter 616 She Saves Waverly

Zeke grimaced.

Right as he was about to retort, a voice came out of the radio, “Ms. Bailey, there's an ambush, and there is quite a number of people around.”

Bailey had her head lowered as she used her phone while listening to the mother and son's argument. When she heard Andy's report, she pursed her lips.

Here they come. Good. I was afraid that they wouldn't show up.

“T-There's really an ambush? S-Someone's really out to k-kill you?” Waverly asked in a shaky voice.

Bailey spared her a glance and uttered in an indifferent voice, “What were you expecting? Did you really think that I enjoy having this many people tagging along?”

Waverly gulped before shooting out her hand to grab her son's arm. She hissed, “Why did you come out with her if you knew that there was going to be an ambush? You should have stayed at the medical base!”

A hint of fury flashed across Zeke's face.

She's only concerned about me? What about Bay? What if something happens to Bay if I didn't come with her?

However, when he lifted his head, he saw the smile on Bailey's face. He froze.

He knew that there was sadness in her bright smile.

Bailey Jefferson was not a cold-blooded creature. No matter how trivial the concept of parents was to her, she still could not avoid feeling upset to see the lack of concern her mother was for her.

“Bay...”

Bailey lowered her head a little and shoved her phone into her pocket. She then cut him off by saying, “Let's get out of the car and meet them.”

Zeke nodded and opened the door on the other side of the car.

At that, Waverly snatched Zeke's arm and cried out, “You'll be caught in the crossfire, so stay right here in the car.”

Zeke used his other hand to peel her hand away.

“I'm a man. If I need a woman to cover me right now—if I'm going to make a woman face the battle outside—then I'm nothing but a coward.”
