Chapter 126: Human Shield (1)
Suffocated with the pressure from this man’s firm hand on her neck. Rose raises her hand and tries to pull his hand. But she was too weak. Her exercises with Evan haven’t been able to give her the strength to fight this strong man behind her.
Rose was actually dragged behind by the man like a lifeless mannequin. She cannot do anything, not even scream, because her mouth is gagged. Rose could smell the tobacco aroma from the man’s palm, making her stomach churn. She was forcibly dragged by his sturdy step.
After a few minutes of dragging, the man opened her mouth. Rose took the opportunity to inhale as much air as possible from her mouth. She almost ran out of oxygen because the man covered her mouth and nose.
Her mind was still a mess. Rose tried hard to string words to ask him why he attacked her? She will give him as much as he wants if he needs money.
"M-Mister... why are you dragging me? Please let me go!" The man in the black hat remained silent. Making Rose’s heart feel restless and chill run up her spine.
Rose couldn’t count how many times she had tried to calm her mind down. So that she can think more clearly. Looking for a way out of this dangerous situation.
She is aware by now that this man in the black hat makes her a shield.
But why did he do that? There’s no one around them. There are no snipers in the surrounding area because the two buildings flanking this road are so high, about 30 floors and above, she can clearly see if someone is pointing a sniper rifle at them.
The man’s footsteps in the black hat were getting faster. Rose almost fell but the man tightened his grip on her neck to prevent her from falling.
