Chapter 21 I Pledge Myself to You

“Where did you come out from, bitch? Get lost. You’re in my way.”

With her ears still ringing, Jessica could not hear what the person in front of her was saying. It was not until she saw a shadow that she realized someone was approaching.

Looking up suddenly, she narrowed her gaze when she recognized the man.

It was the scarred-face man who had attempted to take Alfred’s life in the stairwell the other day.

He was still dressed in the same black casual outfit.

“Oh? It’s you again. Good. I’ll get rid of you together with him. Both of you can keep each other company on your way to Hell.”

Just as the man spoke, he kicked Alfred, who had his hands bound, toward the wall.

Even though she couldn’t make out what he said, she knew that he was there to eliminate Alfred. Enduring the thunderous booms in her ear, she whipped out the combat knife she carried with her all the time.

Having lived in a war-torn country for the last five years, she had made it a habit to carry the dagger with her.

“I was caught off guard the last time. But this time, let’s see what tricks you have up your sleeve.”

With a knife in hand, the man charged at her. Nevertheless, Jessica didn’t need any fancy moves at all. She simply dodged the attack in a flash before plunging her knife right into the man’s abdomen.
