    Chapter 213


    He didn’t do anything other than sleep with his fiancée in his arms.


    In the ward, Marie obediently took her medicine. Looking at Gavin’s darkened expression, she asked


    cautiously, “Gavin, are you angry again?”


    Gavin roared, “How dare you ask me that! Both of you are pissing me off! I’m so angry that my head


    hurts!”


    “Please don’t be angry. I’ll sleep alone tonight,” Marie replied.


    Hearing that, Gavin bellowed, “Do you even get the main point? I’ve had enough of your public disy


    of affection! I’m so done!”


    Marie cowered. “It’s over now.”


    As Marie sat down obediently, Gavin suddenly asked, “Marie, do you know that Dennis hasn’t seen


    yton for three days?”


    Stunned, Marie lowered her head and said, “I don’t know.”

    Gavin sighed and added, “It’s true that yton was reckless this time, but Dennis saved his life. They


    are best friends who have a bond that goes beyond ordinary friendships. I hope you won’t hold any


    grudges against him.”


    Hearing that, Marie nodded and didn’t say anything. Gavin knew that if he continued to say anything,


    he would make her even more sad. After all, when she was risking her life for Dennis, yton was still


    thinking about how to finish her off.


    Then, Gavin walked out of the ward, and Marie looked up at the sky outside the window. It was a sunny


    day, and she decided to go out for a walk.


    Although Marie wanted to change her clothes, all she had were the vest and pants she took off, which


    had been washed and returned to her. After changing, Marie picked a coat from the base and wore it


    over her outfit. Finally, she put on ankle boots and walked out.


    She hadn’t properly enjoyed the sunshine for many days, so she leisurely strolled until she reached the


    shooting range. Several new recruits were practicing shooting, and Marie stood on the side, watching


    with great interest.


    The new recruits noticed Marie. In fact, it was hard not to notice her. The girl was dressed simply in


    ck pants and an oversized coat that appeared to belong to someone else. The loose fit of the coat


    entuated her petite and delicate figure. She was bare-faced. With her hair draping down her back,


    she looked beautiful and somewhat alluring.


    Seeing that the new recruits were absent-minded, the instructor looked aside and shouted at Marie,


    “This is the shooting range! No outsiders allowed!”


    With a smile, Marie walked over and asked, “Can I practice with them?”


    The instructor looked at her small figure and said, “The gun at the base has been modified. You won’t


    be to handle them.”


    Get Bongs


    Hearing that, Marie tilted her head to look at the guns in their hands and said, “I haven’t even tried.


    How can you be so sure that I can’t handle them? Let me give it a try. I’m a sharpshooter, you know!”


    When the trainer heard that, he became interested and shouted at the group of new recruits, “Hey! This


    girl


    said she is a sharpshooter and wants topete with you all!”


    The new recruits waved their hands and yelled, “Bring it on!”


    Marie walked over and took hold of a gun. She aimed at the target, took a moment to align her sights,


    and


    fired a shot that hit the fourth ring. The result was rather disappointing and far from impressive.


    The new recruits and the instructor allughed. “Is this what you call a sharpshooter? We can shoot


    better


    than her!”


    Marie didn’t get upset either. She had been injured, and the modified gun was unfamiliar to her. It was


    just a


    matter of not adapting immediately.


    She adjusted herself, aimed at the target once again, and fired a shot that hit the ninth ring.


    The new recruits looked stunned for a moment and shouted, “It must be luck! It’s just luck!”


    Another shot rang out, hitting the tenth ring.


    Before the new recruits could react, three consecutive shots were fired, all hitting the tenth ring.


    Marie dropped the pistol and smiled triumphantly, saying, “Is this still luck? I’ve told you, I’m a


    sharpshooter!”


    The new recruits and the instructor looked at Marie as if they had seen an alien. They gathered around


    her, observing closely. The girl appeared delicate and fragile, but they were astonished to discover just


    how


    skilled she truly was.


    Marie was not reserved either. She engaged in conversation with everyone, quickly forming a bond with


    them.


    She even took the time to teach them how to handle a gun, how to maintain stability, and how to aim


    properly.


    When yton arrived at the shooting range, he noticed that it was much livelier than usual. He


    furrowed his brows and looked at themotion inside, asking, “What’s going on over there?”


    One of his subordinates hurriedly went to investigate and returned, saying, “Ms. Spence is over there. I


    heard


    everyone saying something about her being a sharpshooter.”


    yton frowned. Why is Marie here at the shooting range instead of resting?


    yton walked over and saw Marie surrounded by people. Some were asking her about aiming


    techniques; others were curious where she had trained to be so skilled. There were even those


    who asked if she was


    a mercenary.


    At times, Marie obediently answered their questions, and at other times, she yfully bantered with


    them, as if she had instantly be acquainted with everyone.


    Upon seeing yton approaching, everyone immediately fell silent and returned to their respective


    positions, focusing on studying firearms and shooting with utmost seriousness. No one dared to make


    a fuss


    Get Bogos


    yton approached and looked at Marie, asking, “What are you doing here?”


    Marie smiled and replied, “The weather is nice; I’m just taking a walk.”


    “So you came to the shooting range for that? A sharpshooter?” yton asked,


    With a smile, Marie looked straight into yton’s eyes and replied, “Yes, I am the renowned Rose, Is it


    so


    strange that I’m a sharpshooter?”


    When yton heard that, he was taken aback. He had assumed that with the protection of Dennis,


    Marie


    would stay quietly with him, and no one would dare question her identity. He never expected that she


    would


    directly confront him and not feel the need to exin anything.


    Surprisingly, Marie ran up to yton and openly admitted that she was Rose.


    Looking at yton, Marie said, “I’ve heard that the person in charge of King Organization is very


    skilled. How


    about we have a shootingpetition? Best of five rounds.”


    Without realizing it, yton nodded and agreed, “Sure.”


    His subordinate brought two guns for them, and everyone gathered around to watch thepetition


    between


    their revered boss and Marie, who had just showcased her sharpshooting skills. They were all curious


    about


    who would emerge victorious.


    yton and Marie took their positions, lifted their guns, aimed, and simultaneously fired their shots.


    All five shots by yton hit the tenth ring.


    The new recruits cheered as if they themselves had achieved victory. In their hearts, yton was the


    unbeatable alpha wolf, and no one would question his decisions and abilities.


    After tallying Marie’s score, everyone was stunned. Just like yton, all her shots hit the tenth ring as


    well. She had managed to tie with yton in thepetition.


    Marie smiled and said, “Thank you for the lesson!”


    yton looked at Marie and said, “You’re too modest.”


    After Marie returned the gun to the new recruit, she walked over to yton’s side. She gazed at the


    distant target and said, “Back at Witton Manor, the weapon I held wasn’t just a pistol. It was a genuine


    Barrett sniper


    rifle. If I wanted to, I could have taken down Dennis.


    yton listened quietly without saying a word. Seeing that, Marie smiled and continued, “You can


    certainly think that I have ulterior motives for staying by Dennis’ side, but let’s not forget that you have


    made things


    difficult for me multiple times. Back then, I could have easily put a bullet through your head.”


    yton turned his head to look at her, his eyes filled with anger. He appeared to be very upset by


    Marie’s


    arrogant words.


    Marie locked eyes with him and said, “But I didn’t, yton. I have never had any Intention to harm


    anyone. This time, I could have stayed silent and hidden behind Dennis, but you have been


    Investigating for days. So now, I will tell you directly that I am Rose. The only reason I stay by Dennis’


    side is because we love sech


    Get Bonus


    other, and that’s it. I have taken lives in the past, but I will never aim my gun at Dennis or his friends/


    Gavin


    told me that you and Dennis are best friends.”


    Looking into her crystal clear eyes, yton remained silent for a long time. Eventually, he nodded


    quietly and


    said, “Yes, Dennis saved my life, and I have no way to repay him. If anything were to happen to him, it


    would be my fault.”


    With a smile, Marie said, “That’s great. Dennis is blessed to have a best friend like you.”


    yton shook his head. “No, it’s my fortune. And his fortune lies in having you.”


    Marie was about to respond when she noticed Dennis walking toward them, supported by Cullen. The


    girl’s once imposing and majestic figure appeared to have weakened on several levels.


    The next instant, Dennis walked right past yton, whose gaze darkened. yton remained silent,


    knowing it was his fault. It was understandable for Dennis to be upset.


    Suddenly, he remembered that Marie had also saved his life. Dennis and he reconciled after Dennis


    punched him thest time. This time, however, he had visited the clinic three times, but Dennis had


    never agreed to meet him even once. Dennis was genuinely angry that yton had treated his fiancée


    like a criminal and had locked her up for interrogation.
