Chapter 1177


    “Bang!” A loud noise echoed.


    The ss shatteredpletely, and Bruce jumped in through the broken hole.


    “Roar!” The two mastiffs let out muffled roars and snarled, lunging at him with bared teeth.


    Driven by the desperation to save his daughter, Bruce quickly grabbed one of the mastiffs’ necks with


    his hand and exerted a strong force.


    The mastiff let out a miserable whimper as its neck was instantly broken.


    With a “thud,” he tossed the lifeless dog carcass aside.


    The other mastiff was frightened, arching its back in fear, and its fur standing on end. It took a few


    steps back, intimidated by the sight.


    Bruce’s eyes turned crimson, and a murderous aura filled the air as he nced at the remaining


    mastiff.


    “Woof.” The mastiff trembled in fear, turning around and running back into the room.


    Animals were very smart and knew what danger and fear were.


    Bruce had no time to chase after and kill the dog. He rushed to Lilia’s side in anguish. “Lilia!”


    “Sob, sob, sob, Daddy, pleasee and save me…” Lilia was so frightened that she almost lost


    consciousness.


    Lying on the ground pitifully, she kept calling for her daddy.


    She didn’t know that her daddy had indeede to save her. She was just instinctively calling out for


    him.


    After all, in her subconscious mind, her daddy was her guardian angel, her superhero who could do


    anything.


    Of course, Bruce truly lived up to that image in front of his daughter.


    “Daddy, pleasee and save me, I’m scared…” Lilia cried out in panic.


    Seeing her like this, Bruce’s heart ached as if it would shatter. He immediately rushed over and tightly


    embraced his daughter. “Darling, it’s

    okay now, it’s okay. Daddy’s here to save you!”


    “Ah, help!” Lilia was so frightened that she couldn’t recognize her dad. She was in a state of panic.


    “Darling, don’t be afraid. I am Daddy, don’t be scared. Daddy’s here.” Bruce lovingly rubbed his


    daughter’s head.


    “Is it really you, Daddy?” Lilia, with teary eyes, weakly looked up.


    “It’s Daddy. You’re safe now. With Daddy here, there’s nothing to fear.”


    Even though Bruce wore a mask, she could still recognize his voice. “Waah!” Lilia burst into tears.


    “Daddy, I knew you woulde to save me. I knew it, I knew it, sob, sob, sob!”


    “My sweet baby, it’s alright now, it’s alright.” Bruce’s throat tightened as he tightly embraced his


    daughter, his eyes intensely reddened with emotion.


    Meanwhile, Marlowe took the gun and walked out of the room with a sinister expression.


    As a super-rich second-generation heir, he naturally had many bodyguards and assistants. However,


    this was an apartment building with security guards at the entrance and regr patrols, and the


    security measures were well done.


    Therefore, there were no residential bodyguards but only two beautiful female nannies in the house.


    “Bang!” A gunshot rang out.


    Marlowe aimed at Bruce’s back and fired a shot.


    Bruce reacted swiftly, rolling on the ground with his daughter in his arm. He narrowly avoided the


    bullet.


    Seeing this, Marloweughed sinisterly. “Bruce, is that you?


    “Hehehe, you’re still wearing a mask. Are you too ashamed to show your face?”


    “Bang, bang, bang!” Three more gunshots echoed.


    Marlowe relentlessly fired at Bruce, leaving him no chance to fight back.


    Fearing that the bullets might harm Lilia, Bruce could only hug her and

    take cover around the house.


    Soon, the box of bullets was emptied.


    Marlowe swiftly reloaded.


    “Bruce, you have some skills dodging bullets like that. Let’s have apetition today to see if you can


    dodge faster or if my bullets are faster!”


    Marlowe sneered as he limped with his prosthetic leg and kept shooting at Bruce.


    As sworn enemies, they were filled with intense hatred.


    Today, they had to fight to the death.


    Bruce hid behind the sofa with Lilia, temporarily ensuring his daughter’s safety.


    His eyes narrowed, and he grabbed a fallen bottle, deliberately tossing it


    outside.


    Sensing the opportunity, Marlowe immediately aimed and fired.


    “Bang, bang, bang!”


    Seizing the moment when Marlowe fired, Bruce pounced out from behind the sofa like a ferocious tiger.


    He knocked the gun out of Marlowe’s hand with a powerful palm.


    His strength was astonishing, and Marlowe was sent flying with that p.


    “Ah!” Marlowe screamed in agony as he flew out.


    ng! Marlowe’s body crashed through the broken window. He was halfway outside the building.


    His scalp tingled, and he quickly grabbed onto the window frame, preventing himself from falling.


    Bruce stepped closer to the edge of the window, ominously staring at Marlowe hanging outside.


    Marlowe’s back was covered in blood, his hands bleeding from the shattered ss, but he dared not let


    go.


    If he did, death awaited him.

    Bruce sneered, holding Marlowe’s tie like fishing, teasing him by swaying him outside the window.

    It made Marlowe feel the fear and despair of being on the verge of death.


    Marlowe’s couragepletely shattered, and he desperately begged for mercy. “I was wrong, I was


    wrong!


    “Please pull me up. I don’t want to die! I surrender, Bruce! I won’t dare to cause you trouble again!”
