The President’s Stubborn Love

Chapter 163: Not wanting to go back into the fire



Nola moved in for the kill.

This is a steep mountainous area and it would be difficult to carry out an investigation in the event of a traffic accident, not to mention that Sherry has no one to turn to and her mother is in the countryside.

If she had been knocked off the cliff by these trucks, it would have been at least ten days and a half before she would have been discovered.

In every respect, Nola has counted.NôvelDrama.Org © content.

Sherry clutched the steering wheel, no longer able to see Nola in the darkness, and her eyes were dazzled by the headlights of the trucks in front of her.

“Sherry, this is what happens when you don’t know any better.”

The night breeze sent Nola’s words soaring, and then the trucks barreled into Sherry’s car.

In the nick of time, all of Sherry’s nerves were tense, clutching the steering wheel as if she had lost consciousness, and it was useless to resist any longer.

She resigned herself to her fate and closed her eyes.

The face that was etched in her bones and blood swung through her mind, and it was only in this moment that she finally realized that, it seemed, she had let it go a long time ago.

However the expected crash did not come.

The moment Sherry’s car was pinned by the truck, intense lights lit up in the distance, followed by a loudspeaker shout, “This is part of the high security armament zone, please leave immediately, leave immediately.”

Then there were two more gunshots.

Bang, bang.

Sherry’s soul was blown away as she looked around, saw the right moment, and drove sharply in the direction the voice had come from.

Stay, and there is only death.

She could only gamble.

By now, a dozen machine guns in the armament area were aimed at Sherry’s car.

Her pretty face was overflowing with severity as she appeared on the huge screen in the armament area, desperate for a moment to die, she had no time to think about anything else.

The man sitting in front of the screen couldn’t help but lock his brow.

“Nobody move, tell her to drive to parking area 3 and get the man under control.” Someone gave the order from behind Edward, then pulled off his headset and asked in a deep voice, “Edward, what’s your little friend’s deal, how dare you break into the military reserve?”

Edward’s fingers tightened and he rose to apologize, “Uncle Samuil, I’ve caused you trouble, I’ll go over and take her away now.”

Samuil waved his hand, “And I’ll make this one exception just for you, go ahead.”

If the two families hadn’t been family friends and if Edward hadn’t happened to be here on business today, I’m afraid …

Sherry has been buried on a 10, 000-foot cliff.

After Edward left, someone came up and reported, “Commander Samuil, Command asks you what the situation is, to transfer people to shoot late at night.”

“What are you asking for! I’m saving people, can’t I see? If they weren’t so poorly deployed, why all the fuss? I’ll go over and tell them, really, that THE Colin Family won’t even help with this? They’ve really got their wings.”

Naturally he wanted to help Edward hold things back.

Although he couldn’t understand how Edward, who was always cold and serious, could make an exception for a little girl.

You know that it is forbidden to move troops privately.

Sherry sat in the car, not daring to move a muscle, she didn’t know how many eyes were watching her outside, but she could see the red positioning dots sweeping past her.

If she moves.

Die faster.

Her hands were sweaty and the tears just wiggled and shifted in her eyes until, in the end, she saw a certain car coming from a distance and then saw the figure get out of the car and take a step towards her.

The folds of fear in her heart were gradually smoothed out.

It’s him!

Edward bent down and knocked on the car window, a pair of deep eyes covered with a chill, and spoke, his muzzle drenched in uninhibited laughter, “Sherry, you’re getting bolder by the minute.”

He was about to say something else, but when he saw Sherry’s innocent and expectant eyes, his usual deep, cold countenance moved a little in the night.

“Get out of the car and go in and explain everything.”

Even he could not just take her away.

This was, after all, within the boundaries of the military reserve, and it was only natural that she should give an account of her intrusion when she had clearly received a warning.

The moon shifted in the night and Sherry tried her best to keep her sanity.

“Can you help me? I can’t seem to move.”

From just now, her hands and feet were cold and numb because she was too nervous.

Edward looked her in the eyes and without saying a word, reached out and pulled open the car door and picked her up by her entire waist, “Not quite stupid.”

Sherry didn’t understand what that meant and lifted her eyes to look at him.

“Close your eyes, there are too many things you shouldn’t see here.”

Sherry closed her eyes tightly and pressed her head against his chest.

Edward gave a faint, soft laugh and took a step towards the army green tent at the back.

Sherry took a detailed statement and also signed a confidentiality statement before finally being allowed, at dawn, to leave as the place was to be moved soon and she needed to sit in the tent until 8am.

She is not allowed to go out during this period, she is being used as a spy.

It hadn’t been a difficult for her, but it had been a long one. The sound of a car swept past outside in a puff, the curtain was lifted again and Edward approached her with a bottle of water.

Without speaking, he handed her the water and sat down opposite.

When they met, the deep meaning in his eyes was impenetrable, and after an unknown amount of time, he spoke slowly, “Last night, Nola tried to kill you.”

He used an affirmative sentence.

Sherry looked up at him and didn’t answer.

“Thank you, for helping me once again.” She had figured out that since Edward could come and go freely here, it meant that there was a connection to this, and that her success in getting out was also linked to him, otherwise he wouldn’t have stayed here and not left.

Edward suddenly smiled.

But the smile is not as cold as the eyes.

“Is your life worth that much?”

Sherry’s heart thumped, “I don’t know how I can repay you, if there’s anything you need me to do, just ask and I’ll try to …”

“Your relationship with Aaron, is it broken?” Edward changed the subject.

His eyes fell on Sherry with a scowl.

Very direct, belonging to the sight of a man.

Sherry was an adult too, and she could read the assessing scowl in his eyes, and her heart couldn’t help but feel lost, so men, they were all the same.

“Mr. Edward, what do you mean?”

She played dumb.

Edward leaned forward half a point, his hand just enough to rest on Sherry’s shoulder, his smiling face gave off an air of lapel coldness, “I can give you a chance to be mine.”

I wonder if the distance between the two is too close.

Sherry’s body froze once again.

After a long time, a few sneers surfaced on her white face, “Playing with what’s left of other people’s play, you’re interested too?”

In an instant, Edward changed his face.

“It seems to me that you lack nothing, are of noble birth and have a magnificent fiancée, and if it were only a little curiosity, Mr. Edward would be better off not dealing with a man like me, it would dirty your hands.”

If he hadn’t saved her several times, Sherry wouldn’t have been able to say such a self-deprecating thing.

She was not foolish enough to think that Edward had developed feelings for her after just a few meetings, if anything, it was probably because the young aristocrat was bored and wanted to find something to relieve his boredom.

On the contrary, she did not want to go back into the fire.

Even if she had to fill it with her life and return his kindness with the rest of her life’s freedom, she would not let herself fall into the hands of others again.
