Love at the Wrong Table - Season 4 Episode 81

In such a situation, Claudette was still apologizing to Emmanuel.

“No, I will protect you. I promise!” Emmanuel quickly reassured her, but he had

to temporarily leave her on the ground.

He needed to find a way to divert the enemy’s attention to ensure

Claudette’s safety.

He had to put other matters temporarily aside.

Claudette looked at Emmanuel’s face and felt his current tension. Instead of

being afraid, she tried to comfort Emmanuel, “Emmanuel, you will definitely

win!”

Emmanuel lowered his head and met her gaze, nodding solemnly.

Then, he picked up a stone from the ground and threw it into the distance.

Bang!

As soon as the stone hit the ground, it caught the enemy’s attention. Bullets

started raining down on that area one after another!

Not only that but bombs also dropped from above, turning the surroundings

of that stone into a chaotic mess!

“That guy’s firepower is too much. Looks like he didn’t underestimate me,”

Emmanuel said with a bitter smile, reminiscing about the feeling of being on

the brink of life and death, which was a sensation he hadn’t experienced for a

long time.

He was no longer the same Wolf Warrior from the past. Now unarmed and

with a wounded person to take care of, how would he find the confidence to

fight back and kill the enemy?

They were practically trapped. Unable to move even an inch, they were filled

with a sense of impending doom.

At that moment, Claudette seemed to understand his thoughts. She

suddenly spoke weakly. “Emmanuel, you are not alone, are you? Don’t you still

have me?”

Emmanuel was momentarily taken aback. He knew Claudette wasn’t joking.

What is she planning to do?

“Ms. Lenoir, what do you want to do? Please don’t do anything reckless!”

Emmanuel quickly looked at Claudette, fearing that she might make an

impulsive decision.

“Seeing you so worried about me, I feel that I’m worth something!” Claudette

smiled softly, gently pushing Emmanuel away. “If I can distract the enemy for

you, you’ll have a chance to escape or even counterattack, won’t you?”

“Claudette, what are you thinking? Do you want to go out as bait? No,

absolutely not! Magnus may not be here, and if you reveal yourself, you

might be mistaken for the enemy and get killed!” Emmanuel hurriedly held

her, not allowing her to do anything foolish.

“You’re the person I love. How can I let you fail because of me?” Claudette

said as she struggled to get up from the ground. Half–kneeling, she held

Emmanuel’s determined face in her hands. “Emmanuel, for the last time, let

me help you complete this magnificent turnaround!”

Her breath was gentle as it brushed against Emmanuel’s face.

Emmanuel desperately shook his head, his eyes indicating that she shouldn’t

do anything reckless.

“Magnus, I know you can hear me! I know you’re still here!” Claudette

suddenly called out.

At the same time, their surroundings were already hit by sniper rifle shots,

and soil flew everywhere. If luck wasn’t on their side, they would already be

lifeless bodies!

However, Claudette wasn’t afraid. She continued to shout loudly, “Magnus,

even if you kill me, it only proves that you’re a failure! I will never like you, not

even in death!”

津

After her words, the bullets indeed stopped; the bombs didn’t continue to rain

down either.

Emmanuel was slightly surprised and started to appreciate Claudette more.

He had always thought that she lacked wisdom compared to Mackenzie, but

now he realized that she was not inferior to Mackenzie in terms of intelligence

and courage.

Claudette knew that Magnus was an extremely proud man. He desired not

only her beauty but also a status–a title he had set for himself. Her title as a

princess was not something she was born with but rather came about after

Magnus proclaimed himself her knight.

After all, what else could a woman protected by one of Zovince’s top four

men be if not a princess?

There was a saying that went, ‘What you can’t have will always stir your

desire.‘

Claudette’s deliberate rejection of Magnus now ignited his desire to conquer

her, making it impossible for him to bear killing her.

With the bullets no longer firing and the bombs no longer dropping, that was

the best proof!
