    Chapter 1191


    Neera was somewhat dazed by that sudden turn of events.


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    She looked at the towering figure before her, a strange sense of familiarity rising within her.


    The man turned around to meet her eyes as if sensing her gaze.


    He was the man with the scar on his face who was always by Caleb’s side!


    Neera was utterly astonished. “It’s you… Howe you’re here?”


    The man didn’t respond immediately. Instead, he looked deeply into her eyes. His gaze seemed to be


    mixed with a myriad ofplex emotions, making it hard to discern.


    After a few seconds, he finally spoke in a low voice. “I’m here to protect you. Now, go back to the tent


    and wait. You cane out when it’s time for you toe out.”


    After he finished speaking, he lifted the tent p for her. Without another word, he gently ced his


    hand on her shoulder and guided her inside.


    Then, he zipped up her tent for her, turned around swiftly, and quickly walked off into the distance,


    joining the fray outside.


    Neera watched the figure illuminated by the firelight inside the tent, her gaze following its movements.


    She was still somewhat dazed. Did that mane here to protect me because of the Medicina family?


    If he’s here, then Caleb should be here, too, right? They must have heard themotion over here, so


    they came over to help on purpose.


    At that thought, she gradually returned to her senses, her heart still pounding nervously. Who exactly


    are those people in ck? Which faction sent them? Also, why do they have so many people? The rule


    clearly states that each family power is only allowed to send ten people into the secret forest, but this


    group has at least sixteen or seventeen people. Could it be that family forces have joined hands, or


    perhaps there’s another reason…


    As she hid in the tent, filled with fear yet unable to stop her thoughts from racing, the struggle outside


    grew increasingly intense.


    The tables had entirely turned.


    The group of men in ck clearly didn’t anticipate that the Medicina family’s forces woulde to the


    rescue. Their advantage was instantly lost, and they were quickly driven into a steady retreat.


    In the end, they didn’t linger for a fight. Realizing they were outmatched, they quickly fled.


    Once those people had disappeared from sight, Shane wiped the corner of his mouth and immediately


    headed to Neera’s tent.


    To his surprise, the man with the scar had entered the tent before him. He found this act quite impolite


    and immediately furrowed his brows.


    However, the other party had just saved Neera and even helped them. He couldn’t say anything and


    could only follow behind with a slightly stern face.


    Neera stayed hidden in a corner of the tent the whole time.


    When she saw someone unzip the tent, her heart nearly leaped out of her throat. Her hand tightly


    gripped the dagger, ready to face whatever was toe.

    Luckily, the person who came in was not an enemy.


    She inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the man with the scar.


    “Neera, how are you?” Shane quickly followed, striding over to check on her condition.


    Neera suppressed her wildly beating heart, saying hoarsely, “I’m fine. I’m not hurt.”

    She nced at the scar-faced man as she spoke and whispered, “Thanks to this gentleman, I was


    saved from a predicament…”


    Once Shane was sure she was truly all right, he finally rxed. Helping her to her feet, he said, “Come


    on. Let’s go outside. Mr. Medicina has arrived.”


    Neera nodded slightly, propping herself to stand up.


    The shock she had just experienced was so intense that her legs were still weak. As she tried to stand


    up, she stumbled, nearly falling over.


    Shane quickly supported her. “Be careful!”


    Neera felt a bit embarrassed. “I’m sorry. I was really scared just now…”


    Shane pursed his lips. “That was indeed a close call. We were almost wiped out. There’s no need for


    apologies.”

    As they conversed and walked away, the man with the scarred face stared at the slender figure, his


    hands at his sides clenched tightly into a fist. I almost lost control just now and nearly extended


    my hand…


    Outside, it was aplete mess.


    Sure enough, besides their own people, Neera also saw members of the Medicina family.


    Shane first took a headcount. Seeing that no one was seriously injured, he breathed a sigh of relief.


    “Mr. Medicina, thank you for your assistance.” He turned his head toward Caleb, expressing his


    gratitude earnestly..


    Neera also walked over at that moment, slightly bowing toward him, her attitude sincere and solemn. “If


    it weren’t for you bringing help today, we might have faced disaster. I am truly grateful to you. Once we


    leave this dense forest, I will repay this kindness in full.”


    Caleb waved his hand, still maintaining that nonchnt demeanor, clearly not taking it to heart. “Ms.


    Garcia, there’s no need to worry so much. I’m d I could help. Didn’t I tell you? I didn’te here to


    fight for the white g. I’m just passing through. We happened to cross paths, so I lent a hand. It’s no


    big deal.”


    Even though he said that, Neera still kept his favor in mind.


    “That was a close call just now. If we were a momentter, who knows what could have happened? I


    saw that person in ck almost hurt you. Are you okay?”
