1111 Edward and Kingsleys Alliance

Jeanne returned to Kingsleys side with her vision blurry.

Kingsley just looked at her coldly and said, Jeanne, I told you to be prepared.

She knew, but

Jeanne was trying so hard to hold it in that she bit her lips until they bled.

Nevertheless, Kingsley was unmoved as he left Jeannes side and walked toward Edward.

Nox was standing behind Edward and was well aware that they would definitely die in that situation.

However, Nox still stood in front of Edward.

He was not very capable of much, but the only thing he could do was take a bullet for Edward. The only thing he had was to die before Edward.

Nox! Edwards tone was heavy.

Dont try to persuade me,

I order you to leave! Edward enunciated every word.

I wont listen to orders. Nox was very determined. I wont let you die in front of me. Theres no way!

His eyes were bloodshot as he faced the black gun in front of him.

Kingsleys gun was already pointed at Noxs forehead.

However, Nox did not move.

Nox! Edward called out to him.

I dont have any pursuits in my life, nor do I have anything I like. Playing with women is just to pass time. The only thing Ive decided to do in this life is to be able to help you.

No need! Edward said bluntly, I chose this path myself. I dont need you to be buried with me.

Since youve chosen it, its the right choice.

Nox! Edwards expression sank.

Since its the right choice, Ill die... With no regrets.

Before Nox could finish his sentence, his vision turned black.

He was knocked unconscious by someone behind him and fell to the ground unwillingly. Just like that, he passed out.

Edward had schemed against him.

Of course, Nox could die for him, but it could not be because he wanted Nox to die with him when he chose to die.

The only reason why Nox would die for him would be because he could still live. He had more important things to do, so he could not die.

Nox sacrificing himself like that was not worth it.

Kingsley watched Edwards every move.

Edward said, Without me, Nox wont be of much use.

It was not that Nox could not do it. Rather, Nox would only listen to his arrangements, and once he had no orders, Nox would not do anything.

Kingsley did not make any promises to Edward.

Killing Nox was something he could do with a single thought.

He could let Nox die with Edward, but he could also let Nox live. It all depended on his mood.

He aimed at Edwards forehead.

Once the bullet was fired, Edward would die instantly.

Jeanne, Lucy called out to Jeanne.

She watched as Jeanne stared at the scene in front of her, where Kingsley was about to kill Edward.

In the end, she could not bear to let Jeanne see everything.

Dont look, she said.

Dont look at such a cruel scene.

However, Jeanne bit her lip and shook her head in refusal.

She did not hate Kingsley, but she wanted to send Edward off on his last journey. Even if it was too horrible to look at, she still wanted to look.

As she straightened her back, she felt Edwards gaze on her.

The moment Kingsleys gun touched Edwards forehead, his eyes were fixed on her.

The two of them stared into each others eyes.

Edward opened his mouth and did not make a sound. However, he was saying, Goodbye.

They would never see each other again.

In the quiet night in the vast wilderness, a deafening gunshot suddenly sounded.

The loud noise did not come from Kingsley, but from behind him. Suddenly, after a gunshot, a barrage of gunshots followed one after another.

At that moment, everyone hid behind the car.

The next moment, a few cars drove over, and they threw a grenade at them.

Edward dragged Noxs body and jumped to a slope at the edge of the field to hide. Meanwhile, Kingsley and the others also quickly retreated and dispersed.

The two cars were set on fire.

War seemed to have broken out at that moment.

Edward patted Noxs face.

Nox opened her eyes and felt a sharp pain at the back of her head.

Wake up, Edward said to him.

Noxs eyes widened as he looked at Edward.

Why was he not dead?

Edward hurriedly explained, I dont know whose men they are!

What do you mean? Nox was baffled.

What had happened in the second that Edward knocked him out?
