Chapter 358 His Blessing
Nico lunged forward without thinking about the consequences and held the serum securely in his arms. He ended
up knocking his back on the armrest, rolled around, and crashed onto the ground.
The wounds on his body bled profusely, staining his shirt red. At the same time, his face had turned pale due to the
pain, and he coughed out blood on the spot.
However, the Super Antiviral was still held safely in his arms.
When Nico lunged forward, the two troops of soldiers brought by Cedrick noticed that Kylie’s guards were about to
shoot him.
Cedrick’s men quickly killed all the guards before they could pull their triggers.
Evidently, the tables had turned, and Charles and Kylie were at a disadvantage because they were all on their own.
Charles couldn’t be bothered, nevertheless. He glared at Nico and dashed toward him before sending a powerful
kick in his abdomen.
Nico trembled and curled up into a ball. After coughing out another mouthful of blood, he passed out on
he spot.
¡efore Charles could deliver another kick, he was apprehended by the soldiers from Erihal.
The Chanacan soldiers, on the other hand, quickly rushed toward Nico and surrounded him.
Ithough Nico was unconscious, he was still gripping the serum tightly as if he was determined to rioritize his mission
over his own life.
he soldiers from Chanaca were Nico’s subordinates, so they were all eager to have a go at Charles.
drick calmly ordered his man to bring Nico out of there because there was a miniature emergency om in his private
plane.
eing that Nico was being brought away along with the Super Antiviral, Charles realized he had lost his t bargaining
chip.
laughed wildly, despite having both his hands in handcuffs. His laughter was so loud that it filled the ire cathedral.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtanwhile, neither of the troops dared to lay their fingers on Kylie.
ce her movements weren’t restricted, she tried her best to pull Charles away from Cedrick’s men.
/iously, her efforts were futile. She whipped out a dagger and pressed it against her own neck. While ing at Cedrick
and Gwendolyn, she thundered, “Hurting the princess is a heinous crime! If you dare to another finger on Charlie,
I’ll make sure none of you leave Erihal!”
rick kept mum in response.
e’s threat to commit suicide put both parties in a stalemate.
fless to say, the cathedral plunged into silence at once.
The situation only changed when Gerhardt arrived with his men, and he told Kylie to stop what she was doing.
“Lower your weapon. Kylie! Stop fighting this. Cedrick came with an international arrest warrant and has already
gotten a clearance from the king. You can’t stop him from bringing Vidar away!”
“What?” Kylie was in disbelief, her eyes filled with tears. “How could this be? They can’t take Charlie away! I won’t
allow that!”
Gerhardt approached her and took her dagger away.
In desperation, Kylie gripped the hem of his clothes and humbled herself for the first time. “Help me, Gerhardt!
Help Charlie! If they bring Charlie away, they’ll torture him! Help me kill all of them!”
While she was crying and distracted, Gerhardt heaved a sigh and struck the back of her head to knock her
out.
Kylie fainted there and then.
Gerhardt carried her in his arms and exited the cathedral without looking back. He didn’t even spare Charles a
glance as if he no longer cared about Charles’ survival.
With Kylie gone, so did Charles’ last chance of surviving.
Cedrick’s expression turned grim when he recalled Charles kicking Nico. “What do you have to say for rourself?”
Charles looked devastated when he laughed sadistically and shouted, “You have everyone helping you! I
ave nothing left to say!”
Cedrick ordered his men coldly, “Put him in handcuffs and legcuffs. We’re bringing him back to Chanaea.”
Wait.” Gwendolyn, who had been keeping quiet the entire time, piped up.
edrick took off his black coat and put it over her shoulders. In a gentle tone, he asked, “What’s the hatter,
Gwenny?”
wendolyn glanced at Charles. “Ceddy, what are you going to do to him after this?”
edrick answered instantaneously, “I’m sending him to a secret jail to torture him. He’ll live an sufferable life.”
zdrick’s voice was stern, and his gaze was vicious when he said those words.
harles laughed even louder upon hearing that. “I told you, Gwen. Cedrick hates me as much as I hate m. We’ll
never be able to reconcile.”
‘drick didn’t deny that statement because that was the truth.
hile Charles was laughing like a maniac, Gwendolyn uttered, “Ceddy, I don’t think imprisoning him is a od idea. His
existence will cause more issues in the future.”
drick frowned and tried to read Gwendolyn’s expression. “What do you mean?”
vendolyn pursed her lips and smiled. She wrapped her arm around his waist and grabbed his pistol. “I nt to kill him
myself!”
“Gwenny- Cedrick shouted but caved in when he met her gaze. “All right. Go ahead and do whatever you want to
do.”
Gwendolyn loaded the pistol, lifted it, and aimed it at Charles.
Seeing that, everyone backed away from Charles at once.
Charles, on the other hand, straightened his body. When he looked at xo.com fast updateGwendolyn, a ripple
of emotion. appeared in his eyes.
He pointed at his heart and said, “Gwen, shoot here.”
“Or here,” he added after moving his finger toward his forehead. “Come on, show me your marksmanship one last
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmtime.”
Gwendolyn suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of bitterness. “Charles, you taught me how to shoot at decade ago.
Did you ever think I would kill you ten years later?”
Charles looked at her affectionately and flashed a faint smile. “I’m incredibly honored to die in your hands. If I were
given a chance to do everything all over again, I would still love you as hard as i have for the past ten years. Let’s
get on with it.”
Charles stood there without moving a muscle.
Gwendolyn’s fingers trembled slightly as she stared at him with teary eyes. Charles wronged everyone but me.
However, he has committed such heinous crimes. If he returns to Chanaea, he’ll be tortured endlessly, and his life
will e a living hell. Ceddy has suffered a lot and escaped death repeatedly because of Charles. I can’t possibly ask
Ceddy to + Charles go. I should just grant Charles an easy way out to repay him for taking the bullet for me.
With that in mind, Gwendolyn pulled the trigger.
ang!
gunshot rang out.
he moment she pulled the trigger, Gwendolyn saw the relieved look in Charles’ eyes, and she suddenly iderstood
something. I know why Charles hid the Super Antiviral in the church and why he decided to reveal it. he were to
keep it hidden, we wouldn’t be able to find it in time, and Ceddy could die. Charles did it to give me his ssing!
Charles knew that Ceddy would still go after him even if he were to give the antidote willingly. He provoked ddy
intentionally so that Ceddy would kill him!

Gwen…” Charles called out with all the energy he had left.
ore he collapsed to the ground, he saw Gwendolyn’s eyes brimming with tears. Well, she’s feeling sad tuse of me
for once. Perhaps that’s all I can ask for.
