Free Web NovelChapter 445: Chapter 445: From This Moment On, I Say I Love You (45)
Hearing the voices inside, Cassian Jennings stopped in his tracks, his handsome brows furrowing tightly.
’Why isn’t it Amelia Avery??’
"Ah..."
The woman’s agonized cries ignited the sense of justice buried deep within Cassian Jennings. Without a second thought, he charged inside.
Once inside, Cassian Jennings froze when he saw the woman. "Gia Miller?"
The moment Gia Miller saw Cassian Jennings, it was as if she’d seen her savior. She cried out emotionally, "Cassian, save me! Save me!" freewёbnoνel.com
When Amelia Avery heard the name "Cassian," it was as if her world had shattered and plunged into darkness.
She wanted to struggle free with all her might, but she couldn’t move at all.
At this moment, she couldn’t even cry.
’Cassian Jennings is here... but he’s not here to save me...’
’Gia Miller, you truly are vicious...’
’So this was what Gia Miller meant by a fate worse than death...’
Cassian Jennings spoke calmly, "Don’t be afraid. I’ll get you out of here." Even though Gia Miller had set him up once before, he was still going to save her.
"Mmm-hmm... Cassian, with you here... I’m not afraid, I’m not afraid..."
Every one of the woman’s fragile cries was a dagger to Amelia Avery’s heart.
’Cassian Jennings, oh, Cassian Jennings, when will you ever open your eyes? Is the only type of woman you like the kind who just cries and plays the victim?’
The sounds of fighting erupted outside. A while later, Amelia Avery heard Gia Miller being rescued. She wanted to laugh in mockery, but her mouth was gagged so tightly she couldn’t even make a sound.
"It’s okay, it’s okay. I’ll take you home."
"Mmm-hmm... Cassian, thank you..." With that, Gia Miller’s head lolled to the side, and she passed out.
Worried, Cassian Jennings scooped her into his arms and headed for the door. He didn’t spare a single glance for any other corner of the room.
Amelia Avery couldn’t find the words to describe how she felt. It was as if the pain in her heart had become so intense it had turned to numbness...
’I’m not scared. I’m not sad. If I die, I die. There’s nothing to be afraid of, nothing to be sad about...’
Not long after Gia Miller and the others had left, the men who had been playing dead on the floor all got up. One of them rubbed his chin, glanced in the direction where Amelia Avery was hidden, and remarked with a sigh, "Looks like this Amelia Avery is a goner."
"Yeah, no kidding. A real pretty girl, too. A damn shame she has to die."
"Heh, what’s there to be ashamed of? Once we’re done with that bitch’s business, we can have any beautiful woman we want."
"You’ve got a point." freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
...The men laughed as they left the factory.
The air fell silent. So quiet, the only sound left was her own faint breathing.
She slowly closed her eyes, tears trailing from the corners...
’A book once said that when you truly love someone, you’ll find them instantly. No matter where they’re hidden, you’ll find them, sense their presence, in a heartbeat...’
From the moment he walked in, Cassian Jennings hadn’t noticed her at all.
’If Leo Joyce had been the one to come here today,’ she thought, ’he definitely would have realized something was wrong.’ She didn’t know why she was thinking of Leo Joyce right now. ’Maybe I just don’t want to die such a pathetic death, so I’m trying to comfort myself...’
At that moment, Cassian Jennings’s words to Gia Miller echoed in her mind.
’It’s okay, it’s okay. I’ll take you home.’
’So... they went home...’
