Willa had already expected Black Rose to toss a grenade. Hence, she could react quickly and swiftly found shelter.
Kaboom!
The grenade exploded, dust and dirt flying everywhere. Black Rose noticed the grenade missing Willa and was about to exit the place in frustration. She was already hurt and acknowledged the difference in strength between her and Willa.
However, Willa wasn't going to let her go so easily. She charged towards Black Rose and gave her a flying kick.
Black Rose frowned at Willa's incoming kick, and quickly got up to defend herself. The two ladies started engaging in intense combat.
Any man would be captivated by the scene instantly.
All of a sudden!
"Auntie Logan..." It was Chuck's voice.
He sounded anxious and panicky!
"Chucky?" Willa was dumbfounded. Why was he here?
In a split second, Black Rose seized the opportunity and gave Willa a forceful kick!
Her strength was indeed that of a world-class female assassin. Willa was sent flying. She crashed onto a wall and slid to the floor in a slump, coughing out a mouthful of blood. Her beautiful eyes were stained with crimson blood.
She was already injured a while ago, but now her wounds had worsened after being kicked.
Black Rose sneered wickedly, "Humph, I guess you have forgotten rule number one in combat: don't get distracted!"
Willa got up and wiped away the blood at the corner of her mouth. Her eyes darted around the room anxiously as she tried to say calmly, "Chucky, I'm fine. Don't come up..."
Black Rose's kick had landed on Willa's chest and probably punctured her lung. She couldn't really breathe properly.
Black Rose strutted towards her triumphantly. Her blue eyes were filled with extreme hostility as she commanded, "I'm giving you one more chance, since it's difficult to find a good opponent. As long as you say it's none of your business, I will let you go!"
Individuals like Black Rose were already one of the world's best killers. Apart from constantly losing to Karen, Willa was one of the few people who could match up to her.
After all, experts of the same field wouldn't want to lose a worthy opponent.
Black Rose cherished Willa as an elite!
Willa stubbornly insisted, "Don't you think it's too early to say that? You only landed a kick on me once."
"Then you're playing with fire!" Black Rose once again kicked her.
She was a master of martial arts as well. She was proficient at killing someone with one strike!
Willa immediately retaliated and the two of them started fighting again. Out of the blue, the sound of someone pulling the trigger could be heard, and a bullet whizzed past Black Rose from a hidden corner.
Bang!
Right then, Willa turned around and the bullet rammed into her body with a loud bang. She slammed onto the wall from the impact, blood draining from her face and flowing out of her wound.
Black Rose was startled, a deep frown forming on her forehead. The person who fired the gun walked out, only to be an exhilarated Frieda Olmedo!
She had just gone down and attacked both Chuck and Yvette. When she fled, she saw Willa battling with Black Rose. Hence, she sniped Willa out of the blue in an attempt to end her life. She didn't really know who Willa was, but all the people who came together with Chuck had to perish!
Frieda strode across the room with a sneer and remarked sarcastically, "You're pretty skilled, but can you move quicker than a bullet?"
Willa clutched the wound with her hand, her body already numb from the pain.
The cold muzzle was aimed directly at Willa, but she was not afraid at all. She remained expressionless and stared at Frieda, unwilling to give in to fear.
"Who gave you the permission to shoot?" Black Rose said coldly.
Frieda cackled, "No one, but a gun is the best way to end her life. After all, fistfights are outdated. Best to kill her with one shot to her brain!"
There was a trace of anger in Black Rose's eyes. She was a killer who upheld her principles. Although she could kill anyone, she made sure to enjoy the process of doing it. Someone like Frieda, who had just started becoming a killer, would not be able to comprehend what she felt.
To a killer, the most important part of killing was enjoying the process.
Yet, Frieda had interrupted her midway.
Frieda pointed her gun at Willa arrogantly as she taunted, "Black Rose, just look at her current state. She's useless now! My shot just now probably pierced a vital, so there's no way she can get back up. Let me finish her off for you."
She was determined to kill off whoever was acquainted with Chuck!
