Chapter 555: Chapter 555: Baron Stuart Swears!
The two men looked at each other upon hearing this, and then released their grip on Emily Walker’s arm.
With her body finally free, Emily let out a deep sigh of relief.
Now that her goal had been achieved, was she supposed to leave through the front door?
She glanced at the black-dressed men on either side of her and swallowed, her footsteps moving lightly.
Just as Emily took a step forward and hadn’t yet reached Baron Stuart, a series of gunshots suddenly rang out in the garage like a meteor shower, throwing everyone present into chaos.
Emily and Baron Stuart were no exception.
“Ah!!” Having never experienced such a situation, she was already crying in fear, her feet feeling like they were glued to the ground. She was completely powerless to move and was also scared that the bullets would pierce through her body, killing her.
Just as she was trembling with fear, her body was suddenly embraced by a warm, strong chest. Before she could react, Baron Stuart had already pulled her away to hide in a corner behind an old sedan.
“Be good, stay with me, and don’t run around,” Baron Stuart reassured the woman in front of him, giving her a light peck on the forehead and stared at her with smoldering eyes.
It was only when she clearly saw his handsome face that Emily desperately nodded her head, feeling at ease with him beside her.
Only then did Baron Stuart turn around and notice that the people who had burst in were his grandpa’s men.
Could it be that his grandpa was here too?
As Baron Stuart was lost in thought, Zachary Stuart’s personal bodyguard, Flying Hawk, had already hurried over to them.
“Young Master, we’ll cover you. Take Lady Carter and get out of here,” Flying Hawk said as he made a sweeping motion towards the enemies and spoke to Baron Stuart.
Seeing Flying Hawk approach, Baron Stuart’s star-like eyes immediately filled with anger, and he roared at him!
“Couldn’t you fucking wait for her to leave before opening fire!?” Just now, Emily could’ve left safely if it weren’t for his grandpa’s men suddenly shooting, thereby trapping her here!
After being scolded by Baron Stuart, Flying Hawk hesitated for a moment. At that time, he hadn’t seen Emily from his line of sight, so he didn’t know the situation.
He fired then because someone had targeted Young Master’s heart with a laser gun.
If he didn’t shoot to stop them, the Young Master’s life might already be hanging in the balance!
However, in front of the Young Master, he would be wrong even if he was right.
“I’m very sorry, Young Master!” Flying Hawk apologized and then immediately began to cover the two of them as they escaped the hail of bullets.
Baron Stuart pulled Emily up, his sharp gaze sweeping the surroundings, taking down every obstacle in sight with a single shot per target!
Seeing that they were almost out, Emily’s heart was pounding with excitement!
As long as they left through that door, they would be safe, right?
Uh, according to what she’d seen on TV, there might still be an ambush outside, right?
However, it seemed like Baron Stuart’s men had come from the outside, so there probably wasn’t an ambush, right?
Emily followed closely behind Baron Stuart, her hand gripping his, her palm gradually filling with cold sweat, but she didn’t dare to slacken for a moment. She was afraid that if she wasn’t careful, she would let go of his hand, and then…
She furrowed her brow, listening to the gunshots ringing in her ears from all around, which made her unable to open her eyes and look up. She could only occasionally open her eyes and look at the tall, imposing figure in front of her.
Just as she opened her eyes again to check if they had made it out of that door, she suddenly noticed a red dot targeting Baron Stuart’s heart from the left side of his back…
