My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1612

The hostages were rescued and brought to safety within a short time. It was all thanks to Levi and his team for luring the enemies away and making the task a lot easier.

Once all the hostages were safe, Monique and Cecil followed the commander and rushed to support Levi and the others. To their dismay, they saw Ronald being shot upon arriving at the scene. The gunshot thundered across the street, and he collapsed onto the ground, blood oozing out of his wound.

Monique dashed forward like a madwoman and dragged the injured Ronald to the side of the ditch to dodge the enemy's attack. "Ronald, hang in there. Please!"

Ronald clasped her hand and said in a quivering voice, "Monique, remind Levi of his promise to me. Tell my parents that their son is not a coward. He is a responsible soldier who sacrificed himself for the sake of his country and its people. Tell them not to grieve."

It was the first time Monique saw her comrade getting injured on the battlefield. She was scared stiff but she mustered her courage to hold on. She pressed on his wounds to stop the blood from gushing out. "Ronald, cut the crap, you'll be fine. Reinforcements are on the way. The military doctor will arrive soon."

Ronald was shot near his heart. His strength was fading and he knew that he was near death. There was a lot he wanted to say, and he would never get the chance to say it again. Hence, he continued, "Monique, it was an honor to be in the same team with the three of you. If I could go back in time, I would still have made the same decision and become your comrade."

Monique wept hysterically. "Ronald, I'm telling you to hang in there. You'll be fine. Do you hear me?"

"Monique, don't cry. It's an honorable death. There's no reason to grieve," Ronald tried to comfort Monique as he forced a smile. However, due to the pain, his smile came out as a grimace. There was still a lot that he wanted to say. "Monique, there are some things that I don't dare to say in the past, but I must tell you now. Levi is a reliable man. If you have feelings towards him, then seize the chance or you'll regret it in the future."

Monique was in no mood to discuss her relationship with Levi. She urged, "Ronald, please... Don't speak. Hang in there. Once you are all right, we'll talk about it."

"If I don't say it now, I won't have a chance to say it anymore." Ronald held her hand tightly and continued, "You've always wanted to know how Levi removed the snake venom for you on the deserted island. He instructed me to keep it a secret and I dared not disobey his orders. However, I want to tell you now. He risked his life to save you by sucking out the snake venom from your wound."

Yes, Monique was indeed intrigued with how Levi saved her. She pestered him many times but to no avail. She finally knew the answer, yet, she was more concerned about Ronald's injury. Other things did not matter right now. "Ronald, thanks for letting me know. Now, stop talking and hang in there. I'll bring you to the military doctor right away."

"No, Monique... I want to say that... Levi treats you really well. Although he often calls you a tomboy, he admires you. He told me that you are more incredible than a man and you will definitely accomplish great things in life." Despite their blatant attraction to each other, they did not admit it. Ronald really hoped that they could be together. He did not want them to regret it in the future.

"Ronald, I know. I'm begging you. Don't talk anymore." Tears coursed down her cheeks. She knew what he meant but she could not afford to act impulsively.
