Chapter 298
Tiffany Kelley took a look at the list. When she saw Melody Princeton’s name, her eyes glinterl.
The assassins could not have come up with such a list out of the blue without basis. Therefore, they must have spent a lot of effort to investigate every target beforehand.
Did this mean that there was something fishy about Melody’s background?
Wasn’t it too much of a coincidence?
Tiffany frowned and handed the list to Jeremy Cooper. “Take th. It may come in useful”
Jeremy had remained in Lovell City for the sake of his mission, which was to locate this young princess. In that case, this list might be useful to him.
Jeremy did not reject Tiffany’s gesture. After putting away that piece of paper, le remained silent for the rest of the journey. as the car continued onward.
After what happened earlier, Tiffany had a splitting headache. She leaned back in her seat and closed her eyes to rest.
Suddenly, a bullet whizzed past. It pierced the car windscreen and headed straight for Tiffany’s forehead.
Tiffany’s car was moving so fast yet the sniper’s aim was still spot–on.
Tiffany’s eyes snapped open as she dodged sideways suddenly. Pow! The bullet pierced through her seat and instantly leh a hole.
That was closel
This sudden turn of events made June swing the car in another direction. Jeremy said in a deep voice, “Don’t stop. Accelerate. There’s a sniper on the mountain opposite us.”
The mountain opposite was very close to Royal Bay.
So that could only mean someone connected to Royal Bay wanted Tiffany dead.
Unfazed, Tiffany switched places with Jeremy. Jeremy objected at first but he could not dissuade the stubborn girl.
After switching places, Tiffany sat at the outermost seat and allowed herself to become the best target practice for the sniper.
On a hill not far away, Yvonne Shaw smiled scornfully.
This wretched girl was really arrogant. She was so confident. Did she think that a sniper could miss? She would prove that girl wrong today.
Yvonne adjusted her aim and looked at Tiffany’s smooth forehead through the sniper scope. It would be perfect if this shot went straight through Tiffany’s forehead.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
She was very confident of her marksmanship and patiently waited for the next opportunity to shoot.
To her surprise, as she watched through her sniper scope, Tiffany raised her head and gave a sinister smile in Yvonne’s direction…
Yvonne’s heart skipped a beat.
Had her location been discovered?
Before she could react, sheraw Tiffany loading her bow with an arrow in the car. The arrowhead was aimed in her direction.
Tiffany set the bow up swiftly and with practiced ease. Her exquisite and beautiful fare was filled with murderous chilliness, She then focused at a certain spot and raised her chin slightly, her expression was calm, but a trace of ruthless killing intent was already brimming in her eyes.
So this sniper thought he was very skillful and could never miss, did he?
Tiffany gave a scornful snort. Brimming with rage, she drew her bow and fired three arrows concurrently without even batting an eyelid.
Yvonne heard the sound of flesh being pierced.
She couldn’t dodge in time. The wretched girl had fired three arrows in one go. Yvonne did not even have the chance to catch her breath in between arrows.
One arrow had grazed her arm while another pierced her shoulder blade. The third sliced past her face, leaving a trail of blood.
Yvonne was incredulous.
She had always been proud of her excellent marksmanship. This was also the biggest factor that allowed her to stay on as a subordinate.
However, she never thought that a mere girl like Tiffany Kelley could be more ruthless than her. Her archery skills were even more formidable than hers.
Her move appeared so random yet it was so lethal
In particular, considering that it was in the middle of the night when vision was limited, strong winds were blowing, and that Yvonne had concealed herself, the arrows could deviate from their path at any point.
Under such circumstances, Tiffany did not hesitate yet her every arrow was filled with immense fury as it tore through the sky.
This was the mark of a true expert.
Yvonne fell to the ground in pain, her face full of disbelief.
She had lost to a mere girl?
After firing three shots, the car had already traveled far away. Tiffany was in no mood to worry about the sniper’s condition. She only stared blankly at the Galaxy bow in her hand.
This bow was also a gift from Richard Hampton.
Now that she had returned the bracelet, should she return the bow as well?
It would be such a pity to return this bow now that she had gotten the hang of it.
Tiffany leaned back in her seat quietly.
“Is it
As she drove, June Spencer was still a little wore one of those assassins again? They still haven’t given up!*
“No. That mountain is very close to Royal Bay,” Tiffany replied indifferently.
There was no need to say anything else.
June understood the underlying meaning in Tiffany’s reply.
Those assassins had been badly injured. Even if some of them were still alive, they would never come to court death under such circumstances. Therefore, the only possibility was…
That sniper was someone from Royal Bay.
As for who it was. That was an intriguing question.
June glanced at Tiffany in the rearview mirror. She knew better than to say anything else. She only spoke again after they arrived at Cedar Ridge Villa. “Miss Kelley, we’ve arrived,”
After getting out of the car, Tiffany instructed, “If anyone asks for medicine over the next few days, don’t reject them. As long as they can afford to pay, accept all of them.”
Many people came to seek the Miracle Healer’s help but she did not accept every patient.
But things were different now. She needed money and power.
As long as she could rise further, she would not stop.
June acknowledged her instruction.
Before entering the villa, Tiffany had a look at the external areas
The driveway was clean and there was nothing abnormal about it No one could tell that a fierce battle had taken place here.
She was very glad that she had arranged for people to protect her family.
It was precisely because she had done this that the assassins were eliminated so rapidly.
Tiffany entered the house. The lights in the living room were still on. She saw three figures huddled together on the sofa. They were clearly dozing off and could have fallen asleep at any moment, but they still forced themselves to wait for Tiffany’s return.
She wanted to laugh but she also felt a lump in her throat.
The night seemed interminably long. Tiffany blinked and held back the tears in her eyes. She walked up and hugged the three figures. “I’m back.”
Charlie Kelley was the first to wake up. He immediately laughed. “Gosh, my precious daughter is back! Why are you so late today? Are you tired after attending classes?”
“Mm–hmm. I’m a little tired. Tiffany nodded. Even her smile was a little jaded.
Charlie was not so muddle–headed as to tell his daughter to drop out if school was too tiring. He turned to the servant, “Quick, prepare a hot bath.”
After that, he patted Tiffany’s head. “Sweetie, go take a bath and have a good sleep.”
“Okay.” She smiled at her father, her heart filled with warmth.
At this point. Eric Kelley rubbed his sleepy eyes and hugged Tiffany happily. “You’re back!”
In the next instant, he realized that something was wrong. That was because when he leaped into Tiffany’s arms, he felt her flinching slightly. Eric got a fright and asked, “Tiffany, are you feeling unwell?”
“No.” Tiffany knew that her family would be waiting for her so she had treated her injuries and put on a fresh coat before entering the villa.
Therefore, the injuries from the earlier fighting were covered by the long–sleeved coat and long pants.
Despite doing that. Tiffany still could not fool Thalia Kelley’s sharp senses. She thought she detected the smell of blood and reached out to pull up Tiffany’s sleeve. “Let me take a look. Are you hurt?”
“No.” Tiffany immediately evaded her mother’s touch.
Then she said with a smile, “I’m going to take a bath first. There was a school event today and I’m a little tired. Dad, Morn. Eric, you guys should go to bed too!”
With that, she slipped away.
When she returned to her room, the servant had already filled the tub with hot water. She locked the door before undressing and getting into the bathtub.
The hot water cleansed her exhausted body. Even though the injuries all over her body hurt a little, they did not hurt as much as the hollow emptiness she felt…
Tiffany closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
She had a dream. It was a very chaotic dream.
In her dream, there was complete darkness. Tiffany walked aimlessly in this darkness. Suddenly, figures appeared in front of her eyes/but no one seemed to notice her…..
