Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 626

"Miss Murphy, I always have a strong hatred for people who bite the hand that feeds them. I've saved your life, so I'm gonna kill you… so that we're even," said Antheena. Then, she raised her hand, aimed her Desert Eagle at Veronica, and fired at her.

At the sight of this, the bodyguard immediately stepped forward to shield Veronica with his body. "Watch out, Mrs. Kings!"

In the nick of time, Veronica shoved the bodyguard away with all her might and fell to the ground with him to dodge the bullet. However, as soon as she fell over, she saw the other bodyguard getting shot with no ability to fight back. The bodyguard collapsed, whereas the other two dodged the bullet by quickly hiding behind a big tree.

Lying prostrate in the thorny bushes, she aimed her gun at Antheena and her men and fired a few shots with quick precision, taking down two of the mercenaries.

The bodyguard who had fallen over with her quickly fought back by shooting the mercenaries. He said in a whisper, "Run, Mrs. Kings. We'll be hanging on here."

"Okay." Not daring to keep on fighting, Veronica hurriedly crawled away on her belly.

She was naturally nervous when such a fierce battle happened at close quarters, but she quickly regained her composure and crawled to the side in an attempt to leave the battlefield. On the other hand, the few bodyguards fled in a direction opposite to hers in order to draw the gunfire to themselves and divert the attention of those people.

Seeing that they'd gone far, Veronica finally got up and ran forward quickly while keeping a protective hand on her belly for fear of hurting the babies in her womb. She had been hospitalized for two weeks in order to keep the babies, so she was really afraid that she would lose the two adorable babies this time.

Not daring to pause for a second, she quickly passed through the dense forest. However, before she could run far, a voice spoke behind her. "Are you running so fast because you're afraid of me?"

It was Antheena's voice.

Veronica's eyes narrowed slightly. Suddenly, she made a bolt for the big tree on her left and hid behind it right away.
