Will You Marry Me, Again by Pear Heart

Chapter 172 She Was Wary of Him!

The moment the window was ajar, she jumped out. Right at that second, the door to the game room opened as well. The shadowy figure lifted his hunting gun and pointed it at his prey.

Maia did not know what was happening behind her as she dashed as fast as she could without looking back. There was nothing she could do aside from run for her life!

The

rain continued to pour and water splashed onto her as she ran. Maia’s eyes were red, and her legs were threatening to give way as she could feel her adrenaline pumping from the fear.

Seconds later, the man fired a shot as Maia tripped and fell to the ground. The bullet missed her by an inch, hitting a tree trunk and falling to the ground with a clink sound.

Maia pushed herself up as she knew that the man would try to fire another time. She had to keep moving. She needed to get out of firing range!

Maia trembled in fear as tears and rain streamed down her face. She ran as far as she could. At that moment, 3 minutes seemed like an eternity. Maia did not know if she would be able to hold out until Cedric got here.

As her body felt heavier and heavier, Maia tripped on something and was about to fall when a pair of strong arms grabbed her.

Her nose hit a sturdy chest as she was pulled into a warm embrace. Cedric’s hands covered her ears as shots were fired.

The perpetrator’s hunting gun dropped as he was shot in the thigh and arm. He fell to the ground in the game room.

“Baz!” Cedric cried and threw his handgun to him.

Baz caught it and nodded his head as he instructed the bodyguards to move into the game room and restrain the perpetrator.
