Samantha’s ferocious face changed dramatically when she saw Ernest holding Florence’s hand.
She screamed excitedly, “Ernest, I’ve said so much. Are you still going to be with Florence? If you choose her, you’ll die!”
Ernest then raised his head and took a glance at Samantha. The coldness in his eyes was frightening.
He sneered, “so what?”
Samantha was stunned by his unscrupulous manner.
She couldn’t believe it, as if she had been struck by lightning.
She had never thought that in such a situation, at the moment of life and death, Ernest would stand with Florence regardless of his own life.
Didn’t he care about his own life?
Was Florence so important to him?
No, it’s impossible.
There would be such a person in this world that is willing to sacrifice his own life for the life of the one he loved. But if the one he loved must die, it was stupid to choose to die together when he could survive.
No one would make such a stupid decision.
Moreover, Ernest was a wise man. He would never do such a stupid thing.
He must be plotting against her. He must have thought that she didn’t want to shoot at him or let him die, so she wouldn’t have done anything to him if he had tied her up with Florence.
He was setting her up and forcing her.
She couldn’t let him and Florence be together!
“Ernest, if I can’t get you, I don’t mind destroying you!”
Samantha’s eyes turned red and her face looked extremely ferocious.
She raised her left hand and ordered, “shoot! Kill them!”
Florence was shocked and stunned.
She didn’t expect that Samantha was so cruel and merciless. If she couldn’t get it, she would kill Ernest as well!
They were surrounded by guards and dozens of guns were fired at the same time. Even Ernest was so fast, he couldn’t dodge them.
She was scared and unwilling.
Magnolia Liliiflora was right in front of them. They could escape from the Raflad soon, but she didn’t expect that it would be ruined by Samantha in the end.
And she and Ernest will die together.
Florence was desperate. She watched the bodyguards in front of her pull the trigger and the bullets flew over–
Bang! Bang! Bang
The gunshots were so loud that Florence’s mind went black. At that moment, only despair was in her heart.
However, Florence’s waist was suddenly held by Ernest. He lifted her up from the ground and spun her.
At the same time, Ernest rushed forward vigorously.
The bodyguards in front of him were knocked out to the ground almost in an instant. With Florence in their arms, Ernest jumped into the forest behind and hid behind a big tree.
Florence was holding by him and her mind went blank all the time.
Until her feet fell on the ground, she still couldn’t react. She was still alive?
How could Ernest take her out alive in the encirclement of so many people?
How was that possible?
It was unbelievable.
Still in a state of shock, Florence looked at Ernest. In panic, she saw that Ernest’s face was as pale as paper, and his forehead was covered with sweat, rolling down like a pillar of water.
Florence was stunned and suddenly realized something.
She screamed in panic, “Ernest, did you get shot?”
Ernest seemed to be suffering great pain, with his eyelids barely supporting, and his voice was hoarse as if it had been ground.
“I just get one shoot. Don’t worry.”
But he looked terrible.
Samantha cried out desperately, “Ernest, do you really want to die for Florence? Damn it!”
“How dare you gamble with your life? You bet that I won’t let anyone shoot you and will only kill Florence. How dare you block her with your body and save her!”
“Do you think she can live after you get shoot and save her? It’s impossible. She can’t escape from here. If you die, I want her to die a thousand times more miserably!”
With her eyes wide open, Florence looked at Ernest in shock. Her emotions were surging and almost drowned her.
No wonder she wasn’t hurt.
It turned out that Ernest had foreseen that Samantha would only ask people on the other side to shoot her, so he picked her up at the first moment and took her half way around.
He blocked all the bullets that hit her with his body.
Dozens of bullets… Ernest’s back…
Florence didn’t dare to imagine what a tragic situation it would be. A few more were shot at the fatal position.
Florence’s nose was sore and painful, and her vision was blurred by tears in an instant.
She knelt down in front of Ernest, held his arm with her trembling hands and sobbed, “Let me see, let me see your back…”
Ernest looked at Florence with concern and comforted her in a hoarse voice, “They didn’t hit the vital position. I won’t die. Don’t cry…”
He said he only got one shoot. How could she believe him now?
Florence cried even harder. Her eyes were so blurred that she couldn’t even see clearly.
Trembling, she turned her head and wanted to see Ernest’s back. “Let me have a look. Waah… Let me have a look…”
Just as Florence was about to see it, a hand suddenly covered her eyes.
Everything went dark.
Florence reached out and pulled down Ernest’s hand, but Ernest whispered in her ear, “Florence, don’t cry. You have to be strong to survive and save me.”
Save him?
This sensitive word made Florence stop crying.
Then, she felt that a cold and piercing pistol was put into her hand, which was stained with blood.
Ernest slowly put down his hand covering her eyes, looked at her seriously and said, “I’ll hold them back here. You run from behind, go out to find Hector and ask him to bring his soldiers back.”
As if afraid that Florence wouldn’t agree, Ernest stressed, “the two of us must die if we both stay here. If you call for help, I can still have a chance of survival.”
With a pistol in her hand, Florence stared at Ernest in a daze.
Her face turned paler and paler.
She opened her mouth and said in a trembling voice, “you, you want me to leave alone? Leave you… leave you here?”
Ernest frowned and a hint of sadness flashed across his eyes.
He pulled his pale lips and tried his best to raise a soft smile to comfort her, “Not leave me alone here, but to look for someone to save me. Florence, I’m waiting for you here.”
Wait?
Florence looked at him with red eyes.
Could Ernest still wait for her to save him? It was difficult for him to speak now. Even when he opened and closed his lips, she could see the blood in his mouth.
She was afraid that he would fall into a pool of blood as soon as she left.
