Bab 1859: Escape (4)

Stella was leading the way with Julius and Allen and she was not sure why Owen tagged along. He is not a fighter, but he didn't want to stay behind. Doesn't he know that he can be a burden more than help? Stella went on so many missions without Owen. Why did he insist on joining this one? Is it because this is to rescue Sarah? Or because all her daughters are involved? Stella was not sure. 

Through their tunnel-journey, Stella was trying to persuade Owen to give up, but he was not willing to listen to reason.

"I can use a gun, and if they shoot, use me as a shield.", Owen said before they exited the tunnel that leads to the main base of the Voronin family.

Stella rolled her eyes. "You are too heavy to drag around as a shield."

Owen ignored her sarcastic comment. "Sarah is my niece. How can I sit behind and watch everyone risking their lives to get her out? Don't tell me that you will miss me if I die."
