Chapter 1773
The First Heir
17, who had not made a move, grabbed the two butterfly blades on the coffee table.
Two swishes!
The butterfly blades flew across the air while rotating in circles before steadily slashing across Ernieâs
thigh!
After that!
The blades turned around and returned to 17âs hands!
As for Ernie, he had already fallen to his knees with a thud, blood pooling under his feet!
He stared in disbelief at the aloof woman striding over from behind him.
She was like a black rose that bloomed amid killings!
âY-You areâ¦â Ernie asked incredulously. The shock in his eyes was like a raging ocean!
A woman with such skills was definitely not an ordinary person!
Ernie had been in this line for many years and was used to doing underground assassination missions.
He had done more than 50 missions without failure!
However, he had lost in the hands of this young lady today. Moreover, the woman in front of him had
clearly not displayed her full capacity just yet!
Boom!
Just when Ernie was still in shock, 17 strutted up, raised her leg in a sweeping motion, and kicked
Ernie viciously in the jaw!
Instantly, the teeth in Ernieâs month were knocked out and he sprayed a mouthful of blood!
17 stared coldly at Ernie who was sprawled on the floor and asked, âWho sent you here?â
Ernie laughed miserably. His legs were gone. He had never been in such a wretched state as he was
today.
âHehe, I wonât betray my employer. Just kill me if you want to.â Ernie sneered. He was quite tough.
17 blinked her big eyes and folded her arms across her chest. An excited smile appeared at the corner
of her mouth as she said, âVery good, I was afraid you were going to be a coward.â
While saying that, 17 clenched her fists until they creaked. She walked toward Ernie step by step while
saying, âI havenât done this in a while, so I can use you as my guinea pig.â
Ernie was startled and looked suspiciously at 17 who reached out to grab him. He instinctively felt an
unprecedented fear and asked in surprise, âWhat do you want to do?â
17 said, âForced interrogation.â
With that said, 17 dragged Ernie out of the suite and into the next room.
Within five minutes, miserable howls could be heard from that room. Anyone in the hotel who heard it
was creeped out.
Wynn stayed in the suite. Several bodyguards had cleaned up the scene and were now guarding her
closely. Not long after, Philip hurried back. He trotted up to Wynn who was sitting on the sofa, squatted
down, and grabbed her delicate, cold hands. He asked, âAre you frightened?â
Wynn shook her head, but her shaking hands betrayed her fear. With reddened eyes, she said, âNo,
Iâm fine. How is Anne?â
Philip gently held Wynnâs hand and comforted her. âAnne is fine. Iâve invited some experts to treat her.
Sheâs already out of danger.â
Wynn burst into tears when she heard this. She threw herself into Philipâs arms and cried bitterly, âItâs
all my fault If not for me, that wouldnât have happened to Anne.â
Philip gently patted Wynn on the back and said, âDonât blame yourself. Itâs not your fault, itâs mine.
Promise me that youâll stay in the hotel. Iâll arrange for someone to protect you.â
With tear streaks on her face, Wynn nodded and asked, âHave you also made arrangements for Mila,
Mom, and Dad?â
Philip wiped away the tears at the corner of Wynnâs eyes and said, âDonât worry. Iâve made
arrangements for them as well. Theyâll be fine.â
After talking for a while and putting Wynn to sleep, Philip cautiously left the suite. He said to the
bodyguards at the door, âTake good care of Madam and donât let any more accidents happen.â
The several bodyguards there nodded respectfully and stood at attention while saying, âPlease rest
assured, Young Master Clarke.â
Philip nodded, turned around, and went to the suite next door.
