Chapter 249

The snow in Ireland lasted only for a while and the temperature dropped to slightly below the freezingpoint. The weather hadn't gotten too cold, but I was chilled to the bone.

It might have something to do with my frail health.

WT's base was situated in a forest located in the northern region of Ireland, and luckily it wasn't very farfrom us. By the time we got there, it was around 6.00AM.

The first light hadn't reached Ireland yet. Joseph parked the car about 200 yards from our destinationand got out of the car.

I followed suit and got out of the car in thick clothing. The rearview mirror reflected my pale look, andmy red and glassy eyes. My long hair was swayed by the breeze, setting off my pale face.

Taking a deep breath as I stood in the snow, I turned to the side and watched hundreds of Xenoses'armed men following Joseph's lead.

Once all the men departed from my side, I whispered a question to Anthony, who was next to me. "Am Idoing the right thing?"

I put many to death for my vendetta.

It didn't seem like a wise choice.

He understood my concerns and gave me an objective answer. "Both of us are reluctant to see themsacrifice, but it can't be helped. A member of the Xenoses will pay back everyone who wronged them.It's also a warning to other authorities around the world. Otherwise, they'll treat the Xenoses asweaklings and bring us more trouble in the future. Miss, you're doing the right thing."

I wasn't thinking of warning them at all.

I only wanted to replace a resting place for the twenty-three people who were sacrificed. Due to theirsacrifice, they did not deserve to be forgotten by the world.

Presently, WT's base was still out of sight. I waddled through the snow with slow and cautious steps.The men followed behind closely to ensure my safety, except Joseph and the other twenty-two men heled.

We traveled for about another five minutes and got past a snowbank before the base came into viewfrom below. It was a massive dome-like structure, and the wall circling was tall enough to preventinvaders. Other than that, the base was heavily guarded by their lackeys.

At that moment, a hundred men from the Xenos Family rushed to the wall and tried to blow the doorwith dynamites. The men of WT immediately reacted to the invasion by sounding the alarm.

As the alarm resounded through the compound, my legs began to wobble, and I instantly reached out ahand to hold Anthony's shoulder out of reflex. Noticing my condition, he immediately helped me tostand on my feet and asked worriedly, "Miss, your health—"

I interrupted him before he could finish, "Don't. It'll hurt the morale."

I was barely holding it together. I needed the time to rest well more than anything else, but I had to waita bit longer until everything settled before I could get a good rest.

I wanted to see Colin kneel before me.

Shawn, too. He would be here as well.

After all, I still had to pay him back for stabbing me. Or else I could never get over it for the rest of mylife.

A fight broke out between the two sides. The sight was unbearable to watch as the blood slowlydrenched the snow. The feeling of nausea in my throat grew stronger over time.

I wanted to throw up, but I had to restrain myself.

The Xenoses were bleeding because of me.

I ordered the man behind me, "You guys break through from behind."

"Miss, they have to stay here to ensure your safety."

However, I gave him no scope to argue. "Just do it."

The men beside me making a breakthrough would gain us the upper hand. It would do them no goodguarding a sick person like me.

The twenty-three people left my side and hurried to the battlefield, leaving me and Anthony alone. Fromthe spot where I looked down, I found a man staring back at me with a cold glare on the watchtower.

As expected, he was here.

It's been a month since I last saw Shawn, and he looked more distant than ever.

Standing next to him was Colin, and he was armed.

Colin showed no hint of fear on his face as he used the phone to make a call. Not long after he dialedthe number, the phone in my pocket rang.

I didn't bother to pick it up. There was no need to answer it at the moment.

My sarcastic gaze landed on him. He was taken aback for a moment before he smashed his phone onthe ground. Shutting my eyes, I asked the man beside me, "How long until it ends?"

"Miss, ten more minutes."

I hummed a response and shut my eyes as I was unable to bring myself to watch the scene that wasunfolding beneath my feet. About seven to eight minutes later, Anthony's voice brought me back toreality. "It's over. Miss, we have Colin being held captive."

"Okay. What about Shawn?" I asked.

"Mr. Xenos turned himself in. Our men will bring them to you. Only a few more feet until they are here."

Anthony addressed Shawn as 'Mr. Xenos' the whole time.

Even though Shawn was now our enemy, he always held respect for Shawn.

Thereafter, I asked him, "Where is the so-called Alfie?"

"He's not in Ireland."

I opened my eyes and found nobody was holding Shawn down. I guess it was Joseph's way to showhim respect. On the contrary, Colin looked like a mess. He was tied up with a death knot and coveredin bruises.

My men threw him like a sack next to my feet, while Shawn stood next to him the whole time with aneutral expression.

There was nothing wrong with his attitude. A man like Shawn was afraid of nothing. Moreover, he wasnow facing me—a merciful person.

My presence would never frighten him.

I forced myself to approach them and kneeled next to Colin. He gave me a giddy smile when he said,"Ms. Felix, you're Shawn's woman and I'm his friend. We aren't strangers. You don't have to go this far.About the other day, I—"

My slender fingers touched his cheek and caressed it with delicate movements. He stared at me insurprise before stealing a glance at Shawn.

Colin began in confusion, "Ms. Felix, what are you doing?"

"You killed my men and humiliated me the other day. Today, I came all this way to Ireland and sacrificedmost of my men to capture you. What makes you think I'll let you go? Don't be ridiculous. I have betterthings to do."

My fingers slid down his body and almost reached his belt.

As my hand was about to land on his belt, Shawn chided me. "Ray."

I couldn't believe he was still calling me by that name.

The name was a sign that he saw me as one of his own.

He was no longer my man, but he was trying to act like a brother to me.

He could dream on because I wouldn't want him back as my man at all.

I took the knife from Joseph and stabbed it into Colin's waist with force. He grunted and bore the painwithout making another sound.

I had never harmed a person in my life before, and my hands were shaking uncontrollably. However,my hatred got the best of me. I drew the knife out and pushed it into his shoulder before I aimed it at hislegs quickly, then his abdomen.

I stabbed him a few times as if a demon possessed me, but he never begged for his life other thanletting the grunts escape. When I withdrew the knife, he laughed all of a sudden. "You're a fierce

woman."

I reminded him, "I planned to kill you."

But I couldn't bring myself to kill him.

However, tearing WT down meant Colin had no longer the place to prove his usefulness to theorganization. He couldn't stir up trouble by himself. Thus, the punishment was enough.

After that, I cast a cruel look at Shawn, who watched the scene unfold indifferently all the time.Struggling, I got up from my current position and walked toward him with the knife in my hand.

Colin chuckled as he caught his breath. "What is it now? Are you trying to stab your man? Are you notafraid of the consequences?"
