Chapter 7 You Are Going To Do This

  • Emmett also didn’t expect to meet Alyssa here. He was little stunned.
  • What was she doing here?
  • With multiple gang members and criminals crawling under the shadows, it was not a safe place for women. Well, it was not a safe place for anyone no matter what, unless she’d like to be killed.
  • He was tracking a man to this place, but he didn’t expect to be attacked instead.
  • At this point, it was impossible to escape. Therefore, they had to find a place to hide.
  • The dwellings were densely packed and the terrain was complex, so he quickly got disorientated, and it was almost impossible to tell where they were.
  • He tried to take one of his attackers hostage and then use that man to get away, but somehow he encountered Alyssa by accident.
  • He didn’t know why but when he saw the tiny, dumb face of Alyssa, he left an inexplicable sense of trust.
  • He put his gun away and fixed on her with his gloomy eyes. His voice was low and cold. “What are you doing here?”
  • “I live here.” Although he had already put his gun away, she could still feel the cold remnants of hard metal rubbing against her forehead. Alyssa was frightened to the point to tell the truth.
  • A flash of surprise flashed through Emmett’s eyes. What?
  • How could the daughter of the Moore family live in a terrible place like this?
  • However, he soon regained his composure and coolly ordered, “Take me to your house.”
  • “Impossible!” Letting this man to her house was equivalent to sign a death contract!
  • “Fine.” Emmett had expected this before. He sneered and his voice was deep as a ghost, “Then do you want me to tell the dear cousin of mine that you seduced me?”
  • What? She seduced him?
  • Did this man threaten her just now?
  • Alyssa clenched her hands, her face was flushed with anger, but there was nothing she could do. Emmett would definitely believe ‘Justin’. After all they were cousins. So, she had no option but to listen this man and take this shameless man to her place.
  • “Fine.” Alyssa turned around and walked down the way she came. “Follow me!”
  • This entire conversation had only lasted for one minute.
  • The two of them had just walked down the alley for a few seconds when another loud bang echoed across the streets. After that, two men in black showed up at the spot where they just were.
  • Alyssa froze. Her face paled even more.
  • What was happening? Why were there multiple gunshots?
  • As soon as Emmett heard the footsteps, he reacted quickly and pulled Alyssa into another alley. He dragged her into a random room to stay in.
  • The house was already deserted, so there was no chance of getting caught. He put his finger on his lips, indicating her to be quite as he peeked by door hole.
  • They both waited in the room until the two men left and then he pulled Alyssa out.
  • What the hell was that?
  • Alyssa was both nervous and worried. She didn’t know what kind of people ‘Justin’ had been provoking. But she knew it wasn’t time to interrogate him, so she forced herself to keep quiet.
  • A moment later, they reached to Alyssa’s small single apartment.
  • Alyssa stood at the door and looked around like she was breaking into her own house. Seeing everything was right, the adrenaline in her veins dulled out and see retreated into the room.
  • She closed the door and turned around to ask, “What the hell are you…”
  • Before the next words of her could be come out of her mouth, she saw his tall body suddenly collapsed to the ground. He put one of his hands on his chest as if he was trying to restrain himself from moaning from pain. His forehead was covered with sweat.
  • “Hey! What’s wrong with you?” Alyssa’s expression changed instantly as she hurriedly walked over to help him.
  • However, Emmett was too tall, his body was muscular and tight. Her small arms and legs not only could not lift him up but also got covered in blood.
  • Only then did she see the face of ‘Justin’ was as pale as a paper sheet. His black suit had hidden the fact very well that his whole body was covered by the blood.
  • “What. . . What happened to you?” Alyssa widened her eyes and her words shuttered as well.
  • Looking at her flustered face, Emmett suddenly reached out and grabbed her hand, and his thin lips parted, “What are you so afraid of? Relax! If I die, they will just bury you with me. Nothing much.”
  • His tone was so indifferent that it was hard to tell whether he was comforting her or threatening her.
  • Alyssa also did not care to listen to him. She thought about the gunshot that she had heard before. So those people shot ‘Justin’ before.
  • Although she was curious about the reason, she knew she absolutely could not ask this man about that.
  • She said with a straight face, “Get your hands off me. I’ll get my cell phone and call an ambulance for you!”
  • He had lost so much blood. He needed treatment blood as soon as possible.
  • Hearing her words, the man’s face, however, suddenly went dark as the grip on her hand become tighter. His voice was very cold. “No ambulance.”
  • With the way he spoke it was hard to argue with him. Her hands trembled as she asked with a tentative voice, “Then how about I bandage your wound?”
  • Although she had it, she herself wasn’t sure if she could really stop the bleeding by bandage.
  • Emmett ignored her words directly and commanded in a deep voice, “Blade, lighter, candle, bandage, towel.”
  • What?
  • Alyssa was stunned for a moment before something occurred in her mind. He wanted to fetch the bullet by himself?
  • Thinking of this, Alyssa shook her head in fright, “No! You can’t take the bullet yourself. You can die!”
  • “Who said that I am taking it myself?” Emmett looked at her. His deep eyes were as thick as the dark night, like a black vortex. With one glance, he could suck people in.
  • Just when Alyssa was almost sucked in by those eyes, she heard him faintly saying, “You are going to do this.”
