Nilson and Micaela’s hearts fluttered at Gerardo’s hand-wringing comment about the woman behind you….
This man’s purpose was not only the position of city lord, he had other purposes from the beginning….
Perhaps, he was directed by someone….
Nilson’s words falling to the ground also made Micaela admire Nilson a little for a moment, in such an isolated situation, his move was to immediately attract the enemy and turn him into an ally….
She was not wrong, the City Lord position was not something Gerard could sit in just because he had gotten a transfer deal, there was also a commissioner to conduct the examination, Gerard had a dozen lives behind him, it was impossible to sit in the City Lord position, unless he had the means to abolish this investigation system, but that was even more unlikely, perhaps, there would be hesitant people among his men?
-Nilson you’ve got some balls, how dare you dig me up when you’re dead.
Gerardo heard what Nilson had to say and became furious.
Nilson scoffed and turned up the volume.
-Not everyone is as unscrupulous as you, and there are many of your kind who want to leave the dark side and join the light. I, Nilson, am a man of my word. If you help me today, you will be granted freedom. Instead of following him and being a street rat, why don’t you surrender to my name and be honorable.
Those men at once a people who looked at each other….
Micaela’s heart rejoices that someone has really moved forward….
Gerardo looked at his brothers in exasperation and raised his hand in anger.
-Give me a chance! Shoot Nilson and leave the pussy behind! There’s a big reward for a good job today!
Nilson took the opportunity to push Micaela in one direction and broke the ice by saying:
-Run that way, Moya come on, call Carlos, he’ll come and get you.
As he was speaking, several of Gerardo’s staunch henchmen rushed at him, and with a sudden movement Nilson kicked away the first one who jumped on him, then punched the next one and bellowed:
-Fight me brothers who want to follow me to get clean!
Without turning around, Micaela grabbed her phone and held her stomach as she struggled to run in the direction Nilson had pointed her in, knowing that was the way Nilson usually went to make his phone calls….
Behind them punches, kicks and wails could be heard, and a shadow was seen on the ground rushing towards him, and soon someone stopped the man in his tracks….
Great, Nilson was not alone in his fight, Micaela appreciated it and quickened her pace, the moon was now peeking behind the clouds, allowing her to see the path under her feet more clearly, several times she reached for her cell phone, but it showed no signal….
She gasped, feeling a vague dull ache in her stomach, not daring to slacken her pace, rubbing her stomach with one hand and saying in her inner self: -Baby, don’t be afraid, daddy will be coming for us soon….
She didn’t know what kind of situation was behind her, and didn’t dare turn around, listening as if no one was coming after her at that moment, with only her own panicked footsteps and heavy breathing in her ears….
When she looked at her phone again, she saw two bars of signal, ecstasy rose in Micaela’s heart, and the next thing she knew, the call had come in!
It’s Ian!
She immediately swept the screen and, with trembling hand, swiped it a couple of times before picking it up.
-Hey Ian, get some men over here now to meet up with them, Gerard has found his way over here with his men and the fight is on….
Ian on the other end of the phone was surprised, the person speaking was undoubtedly Miss Moya, but how had Gerardo found his way there?
At that moment he had no time to ask questions, and hearing her tone he knew it was absolutely urgent, and immediately said:
-Miss Moya, find a safe place to hide and keep in touch, I’ll have the nearest men come right away!
And she hung up the phone.
Micaela could not take it anymore, the uphill walk was already more physically demanding and the dull ache in her stomach was intermittent, she was getting better and clung to a tree on the side before looking back, the yard was visible in the moonlight and headlights, Nilson was so visible, he and the few new helpers were struggling to stop the people charging uphill, the opponents had baseball bats and Nilson’s bare hands….
Micaela’s heart beat fast, waving her hand to call Carlos, glad that Nilson’s phone was not set to lock the screen….
She had just dialed the number when she felt someone approaching from behind, gave a start and stepped back.
True to form, a man came creeping in the other direction, avoiding the way she had come, and in the moonlight the man had a mischievous grin on his face.
-Where’s the help, little beauty? It’s late.
In the moonlight, the woman was simply beautiful, and he reached out to tug her hand…..
-Don’t touch me!
Micaela took another step back, her eyes filled with a stern aura that made the man flinch….
The body of this seemingly soft woman instantly emitted a strong and good aura, not losing at all to Mr. Nilson who had just….
Micaela kept an eye on the phone but it remained silent and seemed unreachable….
That should be it, it should be almost there, right?
When you get to the no-signal zone, maybe he’s not far from here?
Micaela’s heart soars with rage, the big bad, he’s so slow, I’ll give him a good kicking when we get there!
-Little beauty, either you come back with me or, you give me a taste of what it’s like to be pregnant, your choice?
Micaela almost gagged and got goosebumps….
You can’t hit or run away from it, back there with Nilson to keep circling them and wait for Carlos and the help to come….
Micaela gripped her phone tightly, turned around and went back, felt her stomach hurt again, held back, took a deep breath, pushed the fear down and prayed in her heart, Carlos, come quick, the baby is afraid to be born….
Nilson was still in the middle of a fierce battle, he had several paint stains and blood running down the corners of his lips, but he did not dare to let up, he had to buy time and try to repel all those who tried to chase him in Moya’s direction….
Gerard pulled a stool out of the house and sat down, laughing as he watched them fight, getting angrier and angrier as he spat in disgust.
A few mutineers, plus Nilson, only five in all, three times more than his own men, and only a draw, no, technically a disadvantage….
Nilson is really leaving no stone unturned by that woman, the corners of Gerardo’s lips turned up in a sneer, wait till she lynches you!
Nilson tried his best to stop the people trying to rush up the hill, but out of the corner of his eye he saw Moya coming in that direction. If you can’t, you won’t engage….
Looking at Nilson, bruised and battered, held by several men and on one knee, Micaela’s heart clenched….
Gerardo saw his man return with the pretty little pregnant woman, he smiled triumphantly, stood up, walked slowly and stood in front of Nilson, his eyes on Micaela, his hand went to his waist, he pulled out a pistol and loaded it.
-Future Lord of Echave City, come here.
Micaela snorted in place and stopped dead in her tracks, her body trembling slightly, from tension and from bouts of pain in her stomach, holding the phone in one hand and braying with the other, gritting her teeth and holding back….
Gerardo smiled and looked at Nilson with murderous eyes.
-Nilson, today I come, first, to take away your position as Lord of Pesla City, and second, to avenge my leg!
Nilson, still breathing hard, looked at Micaela, the pain so evident on his face that it made his heart ache, and looked at Gerardo with defiance in his low voice:
-Gerardo you have some revenge come to me?
Gerardo laughed long and loud, unmistakably happy.
-Of course I’m coming for you, I just want to torture you today! You like this woman so much that you can even give up your position as city lord for the sake of this woman, right? Let me help you see if this woman likes you too.
He pointed the gun at Nilson and turned his head to look at Micaela.
-Future Lord of the City, come here.
Micaela struggled to adjust her breathing and took two steps forward as instructed, her heart pounding….
Gerard watched Micaela with a gleam of emotion in his eyes….
-Little beauty, take off your clothes, not a single one.
Micaela is startled, her eyes full of horror…
The people around them look at each other with two eyes…
-No, Moya, no!
Nilson growls and struggles, like a lion trapped in madness and unable to escape from its confinement…
Gerardo had his finger on the trigger, threatening:
-Or I’ll shoot him in the head!
Micaela gasped and shuddered, her stomach lurched in pain and her mind went blank as she stared at a struggling, snarling Nilson….
She hated Nilson for feeding her the chronic poison she couldn’t leave Salamonsa with, for bringing her back to Salamonsa, for trying to kill Carlos, for giving Natalia the number 2 of Antinolol, for bringing her here, for everything that happened today thanks to him, for what she deserved to die for….
She forced herself to hate him, and to hate him even more!
But she might never have met Carlos if he hadn’t interfered;
She tried to kill Carlos, but in the end she did not succeed;
He brought her here, and took care of her without fail; O
Besides, he’s part of her childhood memories, he’s Nilson ah….
She only likes who she shouldn’t….
Tears came to her eyes, her heart ached beyond words….
But, get undressed…
She trembled, her hands formed fists, clenched, unclenched, clenched again, she slowly raised them and clutched her jacket to her chest….
-No, Moya, don’t listen to him, I’d rather die!
Nilson’s roar rang through the sky, his eyes were red, this moment, heart wrenching pain, regret, he shouldn’t have brought Moya here, he shouldn’t have interfered in Moya’s life, he shouldn’t have fed Moya that vaccine, she should have grown old with Carlos in Anlandana, it was all hers
Looking at Nilson, who was struggling and suffering, Gerardo enjoyed it immensely and looked at Micaela with an unbridled smile on his face.
-You don’t want to take it off do you? Haha, it doesn’t matter, whether you want to or not, there are many people here willing to help you to take it off, first, let’s get rid of this annoying Mr. Nilson….
Gerardo looks at Nilson, his eyes flash with murderous intent, and pulls the trigger….
-Bang!
