Chapter 439 Perish Together


    "You know me well, Emma. James doesn''t know me at all." Michelle fiercely red at James.


    Even though she had the makeup screaming arrogance and cool, she did not look threatening at all


    when she scowled.


    Amused, James said, "You look as cool as Aunt Nina when you don''t speak and show any emotion.


    But you lose your cool as soon as you open your mouth."


    "Who cares about your stinking opinion, James?" Michelle rolled her eyes, bent over, and took


    firecrackers out of her trouser pocket. She showed them to everyone and said, "I''ll use these to


    mess up the wedding."


    "Are those firecrackers?" James walked over and picked up one of the firecrackers in Michelle''s


    hand. "Why isn''t there a fuse? How are you supposed to set them off without fuses?"


    "You really don''t know anything, do you?" Michelle snatched the firecracker from James'' hand. "This


    is the most powerful rubbing firecracker. You ignite it by rubbing it against a piece of phosphorus


    paper. All the firecrackers I''ve brought are this kind."


    With a curious look on his face, James asked, "Where did you get them?"


    "We used to buy them when we went to our grandma''s in the countryside during the Spring Festival.


    A child in the vige blew up his fingers ying with these." Staring at the firecrackers in Michelle''s


    hand, Emma found her mind flooded with fond memories of her childhood.


    "They''re that powerful?" James had never seen such firecrackers before, so he was interested.


    "Let''s go and set them off together."


    "It''s your uncle John''s wedding. Do you dare?" Michelle turned and looked at him.


    Patting his chest, James replied, "I do."


    Michelle looked down at her clothes again, put the firecrackers on the table, and opened her coat.


    "Do you want the rubbing firecrackers or normal firecrackers?"


    Michelle had a bunch of firecrackers in her coat. It reminded James of those people in the movies


    with bombs strapped on themselves.


    It frightened him so much that he took a step back.


    While he pulled away, he tucked his wife in his arms and shielded her.


    He could not help cursing. "Shit..."

    It looked like Michelle was going to mess up everyone around her.


    "What the hell, Mimi?" James growled at Michelle. "Honey, let''s stay away from Mimi. We''ll be


    doomed if we stay close." Then, with Emma in his arms, James took two more steps back.


    He kept his posture on the defensive,pletely blocking Emma from Michelle.


    Even if Michelle''s firecrackers exploded, his wife would not be hurt.


    "Oh, cool your jets, James. I haven''t even ignited them yet." Michelle took one step toward James


    and Emma, and James took another step back, desperately holding onto his wife.


    Michelle snorted and said, "Coward."


    "Coward? I don''t care if you blow me up, Mimi, as long as Emma doesn''t get caught in the crossfire.


    I swear you can''t afford that," James said through gritted teeth, still shielding Emma.


    Her boyfriend''s actions just now knocked the breath out of Emma. She pressed her face against his


    chest, letting his scent fill up her nose. Her ears thundered with his strong, steady heartbeat.


    Although she was already having a little difficulty breathing at the moment, she felt happy.


    Just now, when James pulled her into his arms to protect her, her heart skipped a beat and then


    galloped.


    He always protected her like this, and it made her feel like the most valued person in the world.


    "It''s okay, honey. Mimi doesn''t have a lighter with her." Emma patted his waist, and James let go of


    her.


    She finally could breathe, but then, the air became thin again as he grabbed and shielded her once


    more.


    "Shit! Put the damn lighter away, Mimi!" With one hand on the back of Emma''s head, James held


    her in his arms and more tightly this time.


    He turned his back to Michelle.


    Mimi lit the lighter in her hand, smiling mischievously. Seeing James'' stiff back, she could not help


    giggling.


    "Stop ying, Mimi! It''s not funny anymore, okay? You''re putting all of us in danger, and Auntie and


    Uncle are here."


    "Ha-ha!" Seeing that James was so terrified, Michelle almost burst into tearsughing. "What''s


    wrong, James? Just a while ago, you wanted to set them off with me."


    "Mimi!" ine finally intervened, snatched the lighter from Michelle''s hand, and red at her. "Stop


    acting like a child. And why are you even carrying firecrackers? What if you identally ignite


    them?"


    "Ouch!" Michelle got burned by the lighter as ine took it away.


    "Lose the firecrackers. Now," ine warned.


    "I can''t. They''re tied to my clothes." Michelle did not want to untie them. They were the weapons


    she would use to get justice for Nina.


    ine pressed, "Then take your coat off."


    "No!" Michelle tugged her clothes and ran away. In a sh, she was gone.


    "Mimi! Come back!" When ine was about to chase after her, Adam stood up and stopped her.


    "Let Emma and James chase after her. You are unable to catch up with her.


    Emma, James, please get Mimi back. She might hurt others with those firecrackers."


    "No problem. We''ll catch up with her." James let go of Emma, changed his shoes, and followed


    Michelle with Emma on his heels.


    As soon as she was out of themunity, Michelle stopped running and waited for James and


    Emma to catch up with her. When she finally saw them, she waved her hand and called, "Over


    here."


    Emma walked over to her, shaking her head. "We''re here to catch you and bring you back."


    "But you won''t." Michelle held Emma''s arm. "Let''s go buy a lighter. Mom just took mine away."


    "Are you serious?" Emma let Michelle drag her to a supermarket. James just followed them.


    Michelle nodded, "Yes, of course I''m serious."


    "I didn''t think you weren''t," James remarked. Then he turned to Emma. "How about we get some


    firecrackers, too? Let''s go to blow up the wedding with Mimi."


    "Really? Wow. Only you cane up with such an idea." Emma smiled, mischief shing in her


    eyes. "Let''s go then."


    "Let''s go!" Michelle''s eyes lit up.


    James put his arm around Emma''s shoulder and smiled proudly. "I find that we are bing more


    and more alike."


    Emma smiled and asked, "How so?"


    "We''re starting to have more and more things inmon."


    "Oh, dear. You''ve grown up," Emma praised him in a teasing tone.


    As long as someone praised him, James was happy and proud, but he did not forget to tter his


    girlfriend as well. "It''s because you''ve taught me well."


    "Kiss ass," Emma backfired, rolling her eyes.


    James saidcently, "I have no choice. Handsome men have to have some shorings, or


    others will feel inferior."


    Michelleined, "Oh, get over yourself, James."


    Emma chuckled.


    At the moment, she felt much more alive than she ever had.


    On the other hand, James was more mature than he was before, but he still retained his boyish


    passion.


    The two of them had been affecting each other, helping each other be better each day.


    Michelle, James, and Emma found a ce to arm themselves. Dressed in the same style, they


    walked toward the Mist Water Park.


    When they arrived at their destination, they were shocked by the scene in front of them.


    How could this be?
