Chapter 483: She Wrongly Accused Kelvin
"I'm sorry, I did my best," Cheyenne said tearfully as she handed the kitten to the tiger. The tiger lifted its head and licked the kitten's head with its rough tongue, then licked Cheyenne's hand in a gesture of appeasement. It was as if it begged Cheyenne to take care of its baby before its death.
Suddenly, they heard heavy breathing behind them. Cheyenne turned around and saw that the vast rainforest behind them had been burned down. The leader wore a mask with green fangs and held a new black weapon in his hand while shouting, "Quickly! They're here!"
"Damn it, they're coming!" Kelvin cursed under his breath as he picked up the kitten and pulled Cheyenne up by her arm.
"No, no! Kelvin, how can we leave Dumb Cat here?" She struggled and looked back at the tiger with tears in her eyes. She remembered its contemptuous gaze when it looked at her before; its disdainful posture when she tried to pet it; even how cute it acted sometimes...
Cheyenne couldn't bear to watch the tiger turn into ashes.
Kelvin felt just as painful inside because he was one who first accepted the tiger. But now they could barely save themselves.
They reluctantly turned their heads away from the tiger without looking back at its dying body.
"Bang!"
The bullet whistled through the air with an ear-piercing sound accompanied by hot smoke from burning gunpowder.
The target? Cheyenne's head!
Kelvin shouted out loud instinctively to alert her but his voice became faint amidst all this chaos around them. For a moment, Cheyenne didn't hear what he said to her.
"Cheyenne! Watch out!" Kelvin wanted to step forward using his own body as shield for hers against that bullet but found himself unable to move!
He watched helplessly as the bullet passed him.
Cheyenne, run!
Kelvin couldn't bear seeing what would happen next, so he roared loudly while tears streamed down his cheeks...
At that moment, the barely alive tiger suddenly stood up from the ground and leaped towards the black-clad men. Its open mouth was enough to intimidate everyone present. The sound of bullets continued to ring out in this fiery scene, as the bullets pierced through the tiger's body. It had given its last bit of strength just to buy them some time.
Cheyenne understood why it did this and tears couldn't help but fall down her face. "Dumb Cat!"
She immediately clenched the knife in her hand, wanting to rush up and avenge the tiger. "You bunch of bastards! I'll fight you all!"
Kelvin withdrew his gaze from the tiger and ordered Cheyenne with a choked-up cold voice: "Cheyenne, run!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he held onto the cub with one hand while pulling Cheyenne's wrist forcefully towards the mountaintop. While running quickly, he explained what she needed to do next. "Cheyenne, follow this small path until you reach a small reef at the end. On your left side... there is a lifeboat hidden inside."
"And I entrust the kitten into your care."
"Afterward, let me lead them away while you take the kitten on board and leave together."
"After getting out safely, go to my personal apartment's second-floor kitchen... the third cabinet on your left-hand side has my shares plus 5% that Grandpa transferred over to you you will become The Foley Group's new CEO."
He forced himself calm step by step as he analyzed what Cheyenne needed to do next.
This speech made Cheyenne feel blank for a moment; it buzzed in her head... She stopped walking forward incredulously looking at Kelvin with tears surging up within her eyes. "What do you mean?"Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
They had just arrived at the
mountaintop when Kelvin stuffed
the kitten into her arms, then greedily looked at her stunning face before gently caressing her cheek with his rough hands. Then he lowered his head, planting a kiss.
"Cheyenne, forgive me for repaying what I owed you in this way." "No, Kelvin! What are you trying to do? We can leave together!" "Cheyenne, there isn't enough time; you are their only target!"
Kelvin was the only one who could distract the group of people, giving Cheyenne a better chance to escape. She felt something heavy in her hand and looked down to see a furry little tiger wrapped in banana leaves, nestled in her arms.
Kelvin turned around and opened his arms resolutely, blocking the path of the black-clad men.
"Mr. Foley," said one of them, "I advise you not to struggle recklessly. You're worth so much money, we don't want to lose such a good deal."
"As long as you switch sides now, everything can still be salvaged," replied Kelvin.
The man with fangs on his mask had just finished speaking when Kelvin gave an eerie chuckle and slowly walked towards the edge of the cliff.
The cliff was about ten meters high from sea level and there were black rocks beyond the blue sea water. A wave splashed onto one of these rocks creating countless droplets that made an unceasing sound.
Kelvin glanced at the black-clad men behind him before fixing his gaze on a small path opposite him where Cheyenne had reached the end and found a yellow lifeboat waiting for her.
Seeing that she had safely boarded it, Kelvin slowly moved towards the top of mountain and then jumped off while spreading out his arms!
"Do you want to catch me? Dream on!" he shouted.
"Damn it!" cursed the young man as he rushed over to where Kelvin fell off.
He fired a shot but wasn't sure if it hit or not. "Damn it! We let Kelvin get away again! He's worth more than Cheyenne!"
Meanwhile, when Cheyenne saw that boat, tears welled up in her eyes. She mistook Kelvin earlier on.
This lifeboat was very small with several leaks... barely able to withstand an adult woman's weight.
Cheyenne put aside the tiger cub, then gritted her teeth before using all her strength to drag this lifeboat into water.
This place was where ocean currents converged; there were also many hidden currents inside caves nearby, which made Cheyenne feel uneasy as soon as she sat on this boat. She didn't leave immediately; instead trying to reach for Kelvin, but just after leaving the cave entrance, she suddenly saw someone falling from above!
"No! Don't do this! Kevin... No!"
