Chapter 1448
He''d be undoubtedly locked behind bars once they found out what he had done. Despite having
been conducted secretively, he''d still killed the enemy without hesitation. Yet, his mission and
responsibility were to protect us. Indeed, Bobbie was an evil person who deserved no mercy from
all of us. But for Hendrix, it was a justice that would torture him for the rest of his life.
With a nce at my pale face, he smiled as he held me in his arms. "Don''t worry, I''ve my own ns
on this matter. Don''t get flustered."
At this moment, Pedro came down and informed us with excitement, "Anne''s bone marrow has
sessfully matched with a woman who died in an ident earlier. Everything will be alright! She''s
saved now! Don''t be worried!"
I couldn''t get anything out of my mouth as I bit my lips. It was a moment when I felt thoroughly
suffocated by my heavy guilt. Ever since my incident, I was d that Hendrix didn''t take any
vengeance. He was a person who would have tortured all of these people to death with his rage.
Yet, he didn''t do that, which made me happy and relieved.
Unlike him, evil had been running through my blood. I wouldn''t have minded squishing those people
who have hurt me to their deaths, it didn''t bother me too much. But that wasn''t Hendrix''s character.
He had always abided by thew, viewing his responsibility and mission as his lifelong goals.
Hendrix would settle things in the gentlest way possible no matter what happened.
But this time, he had made an exception. It wasn''t an ident, what happened to the Hathaways.
He even had the intention to kill someone just for me, something that I''d never wanted to see.
People have always said that a couple would grow together and support each other as they became
better people. But I...
At this moment, Evan once again appeared before us, seemingly in a hurry. This time he went
straight to the point without avoiding. "Mr. Roberts, something has happened at the Oand ports.
They found illegal drugs and military weapons in the imported goods, which alerted the police from
Zuckerburg."
Hearing this shocking news, Hendrix scowled and pursed his lips. "Alright, noted!"
Pedro paused for a moment before he continued, "It seems that the Milton family is ready to take
action. I''ll deal with the things here. You better get to Oand right now. It''ll be a tough battle to
win."
Holding me in his arms, Hendrix looked at me tenderly and spoke in a low voice, "No matter what
happens, protect yourself before anyone else, understand?"
I nodded. His gentle behavior urged me to give him a tight hug.
Seeing he was about to depart, I swiftly caught up to him and said, "I''ll send you off!" I had no idea
why I was so reluctant for him to leave. It wasn''t like we hadn''t been separated before. But
somehow, this time it felt different. I was reluctant to have this separation between us.
Hendrix smirked when he saw me trailing behind him. He held me in his arms before getting in the
car and said with a smiling face, "Why do you still act like a child?"
Hisment didn''t bother me too much. I hauled myself into his arms and hugged him with all my
strength. "I really can''t have you leaving me. Promise me that as soon as the problems in Oand
are resolved, you''ll spend some time with me, alright?"
He smiled faintly as he stroked my hair. He answered, "Alright, I promise you. But before that, you''ll
need to take good care of yourself."
I nodded and cuddled him.
Time felt extraordinarily short when people were parting. In just a split second, Evan had already
collected the air ticket. I held onto Hendrix, unwilling to let go.
Knowing my insecurity, Hendrix didn''t leave but hugged me tighter and spoke to me in his tenderest
voice, reminding me to take good care of myself, to take my meals on time, to remember to shut my
windows before I sleep, not stay upte, to watch my diet...Owned by N?velDrama.Org.
