Reborn Wife

Chapter 25 

At that moment, Olivia thought that she would die without a doubt.

However, she felt nothing and only heard a crisp ding sound as if two sharp weapons were crashing together.

Olivia opened her eyes to take a look and saw an arrow and an iron ball landing at her feet.

As she turned around, she saw an incomparably conspicuous hole in the floor-to-ceiling window of the private room.

It was originally a floor-to-ceiling window for guests to admire the scenery, but at this moment, it had become a perfect opportunity to be spied on and be assassinated.

Olivia imagines that if it wasn't for Bruce's arrow, that iron ball would have smashed her head into pieces.

"Let's go,’ Bruce commanded.

He took a step forward and grabbed Olivia by her hand, preparing to leave.

The little girl's palms were covered in sweat.

It was obvious that his actions had frightened her until now.

But the situation was urgent and Bruce didn't have that much time to explain everything to her.

To comfort her, he could only hold Olivia tighter.

Because of the sudden action, Olivia's heart began to race.

But she cannot define the fact that no one could remain calm after what had just happened earlier.

She even thought that Bruce wanted to kill her but clearly, it was a huge misunderstanding.

Still, she was confused.

Like how the iron ball was able to pierce through such a thick glass.

Was it aimed at her or Bruce? Olivia asked Bruce, waiting for his response, "Is there someone who wants to kill you, Bruce?"

"What?"

Bruce raised his eyebrows and asked in confusion. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

"What about the formalities? I am your brother."

His voice was still magnetic and pleasant to the ear.

Olivia scrunched her nose and replied, "At least we're on the same boat.There's no need to be polite in this kind of situation.I repeat, is there anyone who wants to kill you?"

She asked again with concern.

Without hesitation, Bruce nodded his head, "Yes.”

These past few years were truly no surprise.

After Bruce answered her question, he turned around to look at Olivia and asked her this time, "Are you afraid? Do you still dare to say that we are from the same boat?"

Olivia always felt that his words seemed to have a different meaning to him.

However, she didn't think too much about it.

She only raised the bow and arrow in her hand, with a look of contempt similar to his.

"What are you afraid of? Whoever dares to come and seek death, then they will die."

These words were so heroic that she completely forgot that the person who had almost been in danger was herself.

Bruce curled his lips, his pitch-black eyes dyed with a smile.

"Alright, if that's what you said."

"Of course!"

Olivia had always been a conscientious person.

Even though it was true that she wanted to hug him tight once she got close to Bruce, she naturally had to pay him back with 10% of her kindness! It was only after walking ten miles away and being blown away by the cold wind that Olivia regained her senses.

She had realized that Bruce had been holding his hand tightly.

His fingers were slender, clean, and warm but in his palm, could vaguely feel a thin layer of cocoons formed on it from years of practice.

Everyone said that Bruce's status was noble, everyone could only see the scenery on the surface, but who knew how many arrows were hidden behind his back.

Olivia originally wanted to pull back his hand but then she thinks that he had good intentions to protect her.

Finally, Bruce personally sent Olivia home.

"Rest early." He said.

Olivia nodded with a smile.

After she got out of the car, she bent down and stretched her head through the window, and said, "Bruce, you should pay more attention to your safety.” With a sincere look on her face.
