A Pigeon Pair: Sweetheart, Let's Get Married

Chapter 205 Everly Is Innocent

Byron knew that Maverick wanted to impress Jack with emotion.

It turned out that Maverick had collected a lot of information about Jack before coming here.

Therefore, the person that Byron admired the most in his life was Maverick.

Maverick had suffered a lot, and to this day, no one can do so well like him.

He said, "I know you took Edmond away to protect him. If you want to hurt him, you don't have to wait

until today. You cannot solve the root of the problem. I can help you, Jack. I will not have any

complaints against you, because you have taken care of Everly for five years. Therefore, it is not too

late for you to come out. You should know clearly that you have no other choice."

Byron thought, 'Well done. Act tough and talk softly.'

Byron estimated that this American dude would not be able to hold on for long. After all, it was true that

there was no other choice.

There was a man behind the small slope.

Jack had a serious expression.

He had heard everything that Maverick said. It was difficult for him to make a decision.

After being chased for a long time and living a life of hiding, Jack had already lost trust in the people

around him. He looked down at Edmond who had been knocked unconscious by him. He seemed to

have thought for a long time.

That's right. He delivered the baby himself. Deep down in his heart, there were still flowing with the

spirit of being a doctor and people-oriented.

For such a long time, he had always regretted the decision he had made back then, even if he had no

choice at that time.

Perhaps, this was all retribution.

The indignation in Jack's heart seemed to be slowly eliminated under his self-comfort.

After ten minutes of stalemate, Jack finally moved his body. Then, he carried Edmond and stood up

from the slope.

Byron saw Jack coming out from the back of the slope, holding a child in his arms, and the child

fainted.

He elbowed Maverick and said, "Well, he is persuaded by you. Do I need to let someone come up?"

Just as Maverick was about to say something, there was a dull sound in the air.

His brain tightened at the same time.

In fact, Maverick discovered the sound of a silenced sniper rifle at the first moment. No one knew

where the shot was fired. This place was too empty, surrounded by hills.

Maverick realized that something was wrong. When Byron instinctively wanted to lie down, Maverick

held his breath and rushed to Jack.

That was right.

The person who was shot was Jack, but Edmond was still in Jack's arms. The shot did not hit the vital

point. Jack vomited blood and slowly fell to the ground.

When Maverick rushed over, the first thing he did was to hold his son in his arms and protect him.

"Jack?" Maverick called him, only to find that the bullet had hit his abdomen, so he was bleeding.

He immediately turned to look at Byron. "Hurry up! Take him away!"

Byron had been pampered since he was young. He was different from Maverick. He was not familiar

with these gunfights. At this moment, he was shocked, but his reaction was quick. He quickly stood up

and ran over.

Maverick immediately gave Edmond to Byron, "Take Edmond down first and let the people below go to

the opposite hill as soon as possible. Someone wants to kill Jack."

"Then you..."

"I will be fine!" Maverick said calmly, "Help me take care of my son. I will be grateful to you for the rest

of my life,"

The corners of Byron's mouth twitched. At this moment, he felt that he was laden with heavy

responsibility.

Byron knew that at this critical juncture, Maverick would rather let him have an accident than let the

child have an accident. So he did not waste any more time and carried Edmond to the foot of the

mountain.

Maverick was not completely at ease, but at this time, he had no choice. He could sure that the person

who just shot was aimed at Jack. The others were safe for the time being.

Maverick asked, "How are you?"

Maverick checked the wound on his abdomen. The blood flow was very large. Even if he was not sent

to a hospital, his life would be in danger.

Jack closed his eyes and said nothing.

Maverick seemed to understand something. He frowned, "Do you know something? Who just shot

you? Do you know?"

Jack was still indifferent.

Maverick was even more certain, "You know that someone has been chasing you, so you hid in China.

Who are these people? Is it related to me?"

He thought this idea was terrible. But it was very reasonable. He had never seen Jack. None of the

other possibilities were enough to make him get involved with Jack.

Maverick wondered, 'Unless it is the power of Italy.'

'But what is the bond between them?'

"Jack?" Maverick took a deep breath and was about to say something, but found that there was a red

dot on the back of Jack's head.

That was the aiming point of the sniper rifle. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

Maverick thought, 'That man is so arrogant!'

It seemed that the shot just now was intentional.

'But now, he is warning me that he can take Jack's life at any time.'

Maverick's eyes instantly turned cold and looked at Jack, "If you are not willing to say anything, I can

also find a way to investigate. But now, if you still want to live, listen to me and do it, okay?"

The man whose breath was extremely weak finally opened his eyes.

Despair flowed in those deep blue eyes.

Maverick's heart tightened.

Jack opened his mouth at this time, and his voice was extremely weak, "I don't want to live anymore,

I'm especially tired. I've been hiding all the time. I thought I could do it. It seems that I was too naive.

Their power is too great. They can kill me at any time. Maverick, you have to protect Everly. She is the

most innocent person. Also, when I was a doctor at MD Zender Hospital, I delivered the baby, but at

that time, she was pregnant..."

Maverick heard a noise.

There was another gunshot.

Even the silencer gun could be heard.

They were very close. The moment Jack was shot, hot blood spilled.

Maverick's pupils contracted.

He watched helplessly as Jack fell in front of him, with no chance of survival.

His world was full of the smell of blood.

However, Maverick did not show any fear. He only became more and more certain that this person was

doing it on purpose.

He thought, 'That person may be able to read lips, so he knows what Jack is talking about. And what

was Jack's last sentence that didn't have time to say?'

'Playing with me, right?'
