My Substitute CEO Bride
Chapter 900

Chapter 900

The bodyguard’s pupils shrank.

The next second, a strong force pulled him down.

“Ah!!!”

The bodyguard fell off the cliff while screaming.

His cry would attract the others.

Mireille dared not waste time. She grabbed the vines with both hands and moved forward quickly.

About ten minutes later, Duncan led more than 20 bodyguards to the place where the bodyguard fell off the cliff.

From the traces of saxifrage on the ground and the lopsided vines on the rock wall, Duncan imagined that the bodyguard was lying on the ground trying to pull Mireille up, and Mireille dragged the bodyguard

down the cliff.

“Chase her!”

Duncan’s face was so gloomy that he almost shed tears.

He thought that her sincerity could win Mireille’s heart.

He never expected that in the end, it was only his delusions.

That woman who looked gentle, sweet, and harmless was more scheming than himself.

It was also because he loved her so much that he let go of all his

defenses, allowing her to take advantage of him.

Duncan led more than 20 people to pursue her.

At this time, Mireille had climbed up from the cliff.

The exposed shoulders and fair arms were already dripping with

blood.

Mireille ran forward desperately when she noticed the Duersons’ men were chasing after her. The soles of her feet had been worn out by stones. She was limping as she ran. Every step would cause her heart- wrenching pain.

Soon, Duncan and his group closed the distance.

Bang!

Accompanied by a gunshot.

Mireille’s knee was penetrated by a bullet.

Blood splattered everywhere.

Mireille fell to the ground. She endured the pain, gritted her teeth, an crawled to the edge of the cliff.

Duncan was worried that Mireille would fall off the cliff, so he raised

his hand to stop the bodyguards from coming forward.

“Mireille!”

Duncan shouted with a sullen face.

Mireille looked at Duncan with cold and emotionless eyes. “If you

dare to come over, I will jump without hesitation!”

pp6-900.

“Why? Why did you lie to me?”

When Duncan saw Mireille’s miserable state, it stabbed him in his

heart.

Alas, he knew that he could not relent now, otherwise all his plans

would fail.

“If I didn’t lie to you, how would I get the Eight-Part Scepter?”

There was no warmth in Mireille’s cold eyes, but there was a look of regret on her face.

She regretted that she had gotten the Scepter but could not deliver them to Nash and the others.

Without the Eight-Part Scepter, it would be very difficult for Nash and the others to deal with the ghoul overlord.

“Don’t you have any feelings for me?”

There was a trace of expectation in Duncan’s intense eyes.

He would forgive Mireille for her betrayal even if she had just an ounce of affection for him.

Now that the matter had come to this, there was no need to continue pretending. Mireille sneered and said, “You are full of evil and have no regard for human life. How could I have feelings for such a heinous

animal?”

When Duncan heard this, his face was filled with disappointment.

“I told you about my past. I just don’t want to be

led or looked down upon anymore. Why can’t you understand me?”

Chapter 900

“Which of the ancient rulers did not ascend to power built on mountains of corpses and seas of blood?

“I would rather fail the world than let the world fail me!”

With that said, he slowly turned around.

At the same time, all the bodyguards around him raised their guns.

Duncan took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and said, “I’ll give you one last chance. Hand over the Eight-Part Scepter, and I’ll forget the

past!”
