When Jared saw Xavier aiming that gun at him, a mocking smile played on his lips.
Seeing that Jared was not afraid at all, Xavier roared furiously, “I'll really shoot! The moment I pull the trigger, you'd be lying in a pool of blood instantly.”
“Shoot, then. Your hand is trembling so much that you probably can't aim well, right? Why don't I move closer so that it's easier for you to aim?”
Jared even inched closer to Xavier so that he could get closer to the gun.
Xavier flushed in fury when he saw Jared's reaction. “Jared, I will actually shoot. If you leave Horington now, I might still spare your life. Otherwise, I'll kill you.”
Xavier's face was completely red. He had never killed anyone, let alone shot someone with a gun. He had assembled this gun after buying the individual parts. When he was overseas, he used to have a fascination for guns. After returning to home country where guns were strictly
regulated, he had secretly assembled one.
Despite liking guns, he had never shot or killed someone. Xavier was trying his best to control himself, but his hands kept trembling.
Looking at Xavier, Jared sneered, “Someone like you won't even dare to kill a chicken, let alone a human.”
“Don't force me. I'll actually shoot!”
Xavier's head was beaded with sweat.
Although he had already made up his mind, he was still overcome with anxiety when the moment came.
“If you put down the gun now, I might still spare your life. If you shoot, you'll definitely die.”
A cold expression crossed Jared's face as he uttered those words.
“What nonsense are you talking about? I can shoot you right now and flee overseas. No one can do anything about it!”
Xavier did not believe Jared. Since the gun was in his hands, he reckoned that he had everything under control.
“If you don't believe me, just go ahead and shoot me!”
Jared suddenly raised his volume, shocking Xavier.
