Angeline said in a gentle tone, "Kid, move away. You're still young. You still have a long life in front of you. There's no need for you to sacrifice your life for an old woman like me. I've lived a long life. I've seen everything in the world that I'd like to see. I've enjoyed all the love that I'd like to receive as well. I won't have any regrets even if I die here today."© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Laurel turned around to look at Angeline. Her obsidian black eyes were clear and bright. “Madam Angeline, if you die here today, just imagine how tormented the people who are still alive would be. You're a kind and generous person. There must be a lot of people who love you dearly. Even if you aren't willing to think for yourself, you should think about them."
Angeline was slightly stunned. She stared at the girl in front of her. She was thin and petite with tanned skin. However, her eyes were deep and dark. She spoke in an extremely straightforward manner as well. She was a clever person who was capable of seeing the bigger picture in such a situation. "Kid, I don't want to die either. But I don't have a choice here, right?"
Laurel said, "I'll save you, Madam Angeline."
After speaking, Laurel leaped up and started fighting the few men.
Hecate stared at them nonchalantly and commented on Laurel in a mocking tone, "You've overestimated your abilities."
The men by her side were all mercenaries the Bell family hired with a hefty sum of money. They were all extremely skilled fighters.
However, soon after, she realized that Laurel was not as useless as she expected her to be. She was extremely agile, and her kicks were as fast as lightning. The men might not be a match for her if they fought her individually.
Angeline fixed her gaze on Laurel. Laurel was extremely skilled in martial arts. This was way beyond her expectations.
She seemed to be a few years younger than Baby Robbie. Baby Robbie was already a genius in martial arts. However, given how familiar Laurel was with her martial art techniques, her abilities might not be beneath those of Baby Robbie's.
Was she also a genius in martial arts?
Just as Laurel was occupied in battle with the other men, Hecate thought of something. She suddenly ran in front of Angeline and tried to hold her hostage in order to force Laurel to stop fighting the men.
However, Laurel had been paying attention to Angeline's safety at all moments. She turned around and pushed Hecate away. However, her arm accidentally got scratched during the process.
"Kid," Angeline called out in an upset tone.
"Don't mind me. They won't dare to hurt me."
However, Laurel's face paled as she said, "Madam Angeline, I won't let them hurt you."
Laurel decided to fight them off. She unleashed her lethal moves and started fighting the men.
Angeline stared at her odd moves and found them rather familiar. After some time, she finally realized that her martial art moves were similar to one of Baby Robbie's fist techniques.
Angeline took in a sharp intake of breath. She guessed that this young lady might be related to the military intelligence division.
Laurel fought the men with all her
might and made them fall to the ground. Hecate ran away when she noticed the situation at hand.
However, Laurel leaped up al no
landed in front of her at lightning speed.
"Are you trying to escape? There isn't a door here."

She captured Hecate and brought her in front of Angeline. “Madam Angeline, what should we do with her?"

Angeline stared at Hecate. A look of fear appeared on Hecate's face. Angeline walked in front of her and advised her wholeheartedly, "Hecate, you must first value yourself if you'd like other people to value you. People aren't divided by how lowly or noble their family backgrounds are. They're divided between good and evil. The women of the Ares family don't dislike you because of your lowly family background. In reality, some of my foster daughters have family backgrounds that are worse than yours. However, they have dignity and are grateful. Therefore, Sir Ares and I love them a lot.
"Do
you think we would've treated you that way if you hadn't approached Baby Robbie with ulterior motives?"
Hecate lowered her head as her eyes turned red-rimmed. She said, “But I've really fallen for Baby Robbie now. Can't you accept me?"
