The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 2268

Abel’s attitude was completely different from when they were in the lounge earlier.

Perhaps Abel never wanted to follow Jeff since the beginning.

Even if Sebastian could not protect him, he was still better than a weird cripple like Jeff.

What was more, the situation was still unclear because they did not know what was going on outside.

How could Nicole and Luca ruin Sebastian’s career so easily?

Abel was not a fool.

If he did not do something at this time, he did not know how he would explain it to Sebastian later.

Nicole did not dare to move for fear that Abel would accidentally pull the trigger.

People like Abel who carried weapons with them abroad disregarded human life, so Nicole did not dare to test his limits.

Just as Luca was about to come over, Nicole winked at him.

Thus, Luca stood there dumbfoundedly and stared at Abel coldly.

Luca was on guard as if he was ready to attack.

Jeff was the closest to Abel.

However, it was a pity that he could not even stand up, let alone save Nicole from a professional assassin like Abel.

Abel also expected this. That was why he dared to be so unscrupulous.

Soon, they heard voices coming from outside the room.

Someone was approaching their room.

Abel had a complicated expression, but the muzzle of his gun was still pointing at the back of Nicole’s head. He did not dare to relax for one second.

Suddenly, someone opened the door of this room from the outside.

Abel’s eyes flickered, and he looked over excitedly.

Then, a muffled sound suddenly pierced the air.

Abel looked back in disbelief at the man in the wheelchair who had an extra gun in his hand at some point.

That gun even had a silencer.

Abel noticed a bloody wound on his own chest.

He looked at his wound with a distorted, complex, and shocked expression.

Jeff’s face was extremely cold and calm. A chill permeated from his eyes. They look dangerous and mysterious like the unknown seabed, which made people shudder.

The gun on the back of Nicole’s head fell to the ground. Abel knelt on the ground in defeat and pointed at Jeff as blood dripped from the corner of his mouth.

Abel looked unreconciled.

However, no matter how unreconciled he was, he no longer had a chance to regret his decision.

He had been with Jeff for so long and only regarded him as a useless person.

Abel did not even know that Jeff had a gun.

Luca walked over in a few steps, pulled Nicole behind him, and pointed the gun in his hand at Abel, who was lying on the ground.

That was because Luca was afraid that Abel would attack from behind.

Nicole’s face was calm, and she did not seem to be frightened by this accident.

The whole situation lasted merely two minutes.

The noise outside was getting closer and more chaotic.

The seawater looked as if it could swallow everything at any time.

Nicole fixed her gaze on Jeff. She was about to say something when someone pushed the door open.

It was Leighton.

Leighton narrowed his eyes and saw the person who was lying on the ground.

He pursed his lips and looked at Nicole and Luca.

“You guys alright?”

Nicole nodded.

Leighton looked at Jeff. “Ms. Stanton, is he the one you’re looking for despite the danger?”

Jeff’s face changed slightly.

His eyes darkened for a moment.

What that man implied was that Nicole came specially to look for him.

It was not a passing thing.

Jeff’s heart tightened.

It was as if someone had squeezed it hard.

He felt unspeakably bitter.

Jeff looked at Nicole, who turned her head slightly and looked away.

“How are you guys doing?”

“We caught him, and we’ve restrained most of the others. We can go up first and leave some people here to search for the rest.”
