Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 815

A woman in a ruined champagne gown launched herself toward Serena, moving with reckless abandon.

It was Isabella. She looked frantic, playing the role of the desperately devoted sister perfectly.

But as she hurled herself forward, screaming about protection, her true intentions were obvious. She positioned herself at a vicious angle, using her entire body weight to shove Serena directly into the line of Kane's assault rifle.

While trying to push her, Isabella shrieked, "Don't you dare hurt Serena! Take me instead!"

It was a ruthless, calculated shove. If Serena lost her balance, she would stumble right into the crosshairs.

The sudden movement was also highly likely to make the tightly-wound mercenary pull the trigger on reflex.

Isabella's eyes flashed with venomous delight. As long as Serena ended up crippled or dead, she didn't care how this circus ended.

However...

Serena didn't even bother turning around.

Beside her, a strong, athletic arm snaked around Serena's waist, pulling her firmly against a solid chest. It was Nicholas.

At that exact moment, Serena subtly flicked her left wrist.

Before Isabella even registered what was happening, something slammed hard against her elbow joint. Her body completely lost its balance, propelling her forward with unstoppable momentum.

Right into the barrel of Kane's gun.

"Ah!" Isabella screamed in absolute terror. "Nicholas, help me! Nicholas!"

The dark muzzle of the rifle was inches from her face. Isabella turned deathly pale. The scent of gun oil and impending death filled her nostrils.

She was paralyzed by fear. Was she going to be the one who startled the mercenary into firing?
