章節 199: I Can't Leave You Behind

"Ethan Montgomery!" Avery Miller's eyes widened in shock as blood suddenly sprayed from his shoulder, splattering her face with its warm dampness.

Horrified, she watched him spin around and disappear into the wall beside them.

Outside, several more gunshots rang out, and Avery saw sparks fly from the opposite wall as bullets struck the brickwork.

Indeed, someone knew they were here. Just moments ago…

"Ethan Montgomery, why are you so foolish?" She almost cried out, realizing how narrowly he had missed being critically wounded by the bullets.

"Don't cry, I'm okay," he reassured her, gently wiping the tears that had spontaneously fallen down her cheeks. It turned out she wasn't as stoic as she seemed; she could cry for him, worry about him.
