Chapter 1160
Chapter 1160 Lee
Arron’s POV:
I was just a few precious feet away from my escape! Furious and disappointed, I struggled to break
free from this new captor. “Let me go!”
The person shook me without breaking a sweat, disorienting me. Then he tossed me aside, and I fell
right on lop of the clown-faced trio. “You worthless idiots! Do you even know what would happen to you
if this little boy escaped?”

They proceeded to apologize profusely. “We’re very sorry, Lee. We were too careless. We didn’t think
anyone would be stupid enough to cause any trouble, but this brat is clearly an exception.”
I rubbed my aching back and hurried back to my feet. I was about to dash to the gates again, but as
soon as I turned in its direction, I ran into a pair of legs.
The man called Lee red at me before getting on his haunches to my eye level. He sized me up and
pinched my cheek. “You’re quite nimble, aren’t you?”

I was on full alert. I pressed my lips together and bit my tongue. Mommy had told us that when faced
with the enemy, we should keep our wits about us and not divulge anything about ourselves.
“You see, Lee?” the man in the red clown mask said, obviously trying to pass on the me. “The kid
runs too damn fast. We were caught by surprise, really.”
Lee straightened and strode over to the trio. The next thing we knew, he had taken out a pistol and shot
the burly man in the thigh.
The poor guy clutched his leg and howled, while the other two could only gape at him in shock. My
heart stuttered. Judging by what I had seen so far, this Lee was the boss around here.
He held the gun to his lips and blew the smokeing out of its muzzle. “You’re telling me that you
can’t even outrun a child? That can only mean that you don’t need your legs anymore.”
To my surprise, the wounded man disregarded his injury and got down on his knees. “I apologize. We
should have been more careful.”
As he spoke, he threw a ferocious re at me, as if he couldn’t wait to get his hands on me and pull
me apart.
I knew that they would never let me off easily. T needed to escape. But they had guns No matter how
fast I was, I couldn’t possibly be safe from bullets.
But if I stayed here, then there would be no hope left for me. I needed to grab what little chance I had.
I looked around and took note of my surroundings, and then quickly darted over to one side.
Gunshots rang almost immediately. I was terrified, but I let my fear propel me forward. Just like Mommy
had taught us, I didn’t run in a straight line, but zigzagged my way toward the gate instead. Despite my
efforts, I was still captured shortly. This time, it was the red clown who pulled me back. It seemed like
he wanted to prove himself by pursuing me despite his injury.
“You little bastard. I’ll kill you!”
He was in a full-blown rage. He raised his meaty hand and pped me in the face.
He had used so much force behind it that my ears began to buzz. I reached up and pressed my hands
against them to stop the ringing. Tears sprang in my eyes. I was so scared and I wanted to see -
Mommy. “Bring him here.”
Lee toyed with his gun as we approached. When I was right in front of him, he pointed the weapon to
my head and ced his finger on the trigger.
I was trembling. I didn’t think I would survive this time. “I’m sorry, Mommy,” I murmured to myself. “I
won’t be able to protect you in the future.”
The gunshot rang out with a deafening bang. I flinched hard that I dangled from my captor’s hold, but
the pain I was expecting did note.
Lee had turned the gun away at thest second, and the bullet went through the gates.
He burst outughing, and the three other clowns follow’ed suit.
I understood then that Lee was taunting me. He wanted to see me scared.
My breathing was short and shallow, and my forehead was beaded with cold sweat. I was still afraid
that he would shoot me next.
Sure enough, Lee leaned close. He grabbed my chin with one hand, and pressed the muzzle of his gun
against my throat.
