The Deserted Rich Beauty novel Chapter 276

In that moment of confrontation, the situation changed. Dark clouds hung heavily above the sea, and the sea seemed exceptionally calm despite the storm brewing.

It seemed to foreshadow the intense situation that was about to occur.

In the dead silence of the stand-off, the cold and heavy atmosphere was extremely tense and dangerous, as if it would ignite at the slightest spark.

These were trained pirates who would kill without batting an eye.

Nicole was just a survivor stranded here.

However, she did not have the slightest fear, and her hands wielding the gun did not tremble. She pointed the gun at the pirate she was stepping on to make sure that he did not dare to struggle!

Raising her eyes, she looked at the dozens of guns aimed at herself with a firm and composed gaze.

Nathaniel's face went miserably white when he saw this scene.

His legs could not help but go limp as he involuntarily slumped to the ground.

Nicole glanced at him and whispered in a voice that the pirates could not hear.

"Don’t be scared. Stand behind me. Once you hear the gunshot, turn around and run, and don’t look back."

The jungle was right behind them. They would have a greater chance of escaping there!

Nathaniel froze. He was an explorer. What dangers had he never encountered?

He had overcome the endless difficulties brought by nature, such as having no food, no water, and no fire...

Whether it was being attacked by indigenous people, falling off a cliff, or getting robbed at sea by pirates, Nathaniel had experienced all of it before.

However, right now, he was terrified. He trembled with a bone-chilling fear.

It was a suffocating feeling of impending death that made his scalp numb and his feet cold.

Humans were always scared and powerless in the face of death!

Not even Hollywood would be able to film such a scene.

However, what did this dainty and melodramatic woman say?

'Don’t be scared? Stand behind her? Don't look back?'

Nathaniel gritted his teeth and stood up stiffly, gradually suppressing the panic in his eyes.

How could he let a woman stand in front of him?

"I won't run. I told you that I'll protect you!"

Although he just said it casually at that time, he still remembered that promise.

Nicole wanted him to run so at least one of them would be able to survive.

However, before she could speak, the pirate on the other side impatiently barked out an order.

"Cut the crap and shoot!"

Nicole's expression changed dramatically as she cursed in her heart.
