Chapter 720

Chapter 720 Wait For Your Payback

Natasha was still kneeling on the ground and applying pressure on Alexia's wound.

Fortunately, she had picked up some first-aid skills from Spencer after knowing him for so long.

Upon noticing that Alexia was losing more blood, she lifted a panicked gaze to Kenneth. "Kenneth, she needs treatment immediately! Otherwise, she'll bleed to death!"

Kenneth finally turned around and rushed over.

At that moment, Alexia was so pale that even her lips looked white. Even so, a look of joy sparkled in her eyes when she saw Kenneth. "My savior, you're finally willing to look at me..."

Ignoring her statement, Kenneth glanced at her before saying, "Hang on. I'll send you back immediately!"

"Kenneth, I'll send her back. You should go to Dave as they're still in danger," Natasha suggested.

"But-"

"No buts! Boss has already left. He won't be returning any time soon!" Natasha analyzed calmly.

Even so, Kenneth was still worried. After a brief moment of consideration, Kenneth turned to look at Mike, who was standing a distance away. "Mike."

Upon hearing his name, Mike rushed to Kenneth's side immediately. "Kenneth."

"Send them back for treatment. Be careful on the way back," Kenneth instructed Mike.

"What about you?" Mike asked.

Kenneth narrowed his eyes. "Even though Dave and the others might be temporarily out of danger, there is no guarantee that Boss would not change his mind. I have to go make sure that they're really in the clear."

"Can't I go with you?" Mike protested. "We can just let them drive Natasha and Alexia back to the base!"

Lowering his gaze, Kenneth looked at Natasha in silence before turning to look at Mike once again. "Mike, I'm entrusting you with the lives of the most important people here."

When Mike heard that, he finally understood that there was a more important task at hand than protecting Kenneth's life. He nodded. "Understood. I promise I'll send Natasha and Alexia back safe and sound."

"Send them straight to the base for treatment. There is better equipment there," Kenneth advised.

"Okay. Got it!" Mike nodded.

With that, Mike immediately carried Alexia to the car while Natasha and Kenneth trailed behind them, hand in hand.

After Alexia was placed inside the car, she called out to Kenneth, beating Natasha to it. "My savior, take care of yourself. Please be careful."

Even at a time like this, she was still thinking about Kenneth.

Staring back at her, Kenneth did not know what he should say in return.

On the other hand, Natasha was unbothered. Turning around to look at Kenneth, her gorgeous eyes sparkled in the night. "She's right. You have to be careful. Please come back safe."

Kenneth fixed his gaze on Natasha's small face, his eyes filled with tender affection. After a second of silence, he nodded. "I will, for I still have a score to settle with you."

Of course, Natasha knew what he was referring to. She beamed at him. "In that case, I'll wait for your payback."

Kenneth gently caressed her face with his long fingers before leaning in to plant a deep kiss on her forehead. "I'll be going now."

With that, he kept the gun in his holster and turned around to walk toward another car.

An unfathomable glint flashed past Natasha's eyes as she stared at Kenneth's diminishing silhouette.

Suddenly, Mike cut in, "Natasha, how about I send Alexia back and you follow Kenneth?"

Blinking, Natasha turned to look at Mike before answering, "No need. He'll be fine. Let's go." With that said, Natasha got in the car.

Seeing that, Mike followed suit as well.

Inside the car, Natasha continued to apply pressure on Alexia's wound. By then, her hands and shirt were covered in fresh blood. Nonetheless, there was no trace of disgust or fear on her face. Instead, she kept encouraging Alexia every couple of minutes. "Stay awake. You have to hold on."

Alexia looked up at Natasha. Her face grew exceedingly pale with each passing minute. "You don't have to care about me, you know."

Tossing Alexia a mere glance, Natasha hummed in acknowledgment.

"I wasn't protecting you. I was protecting my savior!" Alexia argued.

"I know."

"Then why are you helping me?" Alexia looked at Natasha.

"No matter what your intentions were and who you did it for, in the end, you still took a bullet for me. Hence, I am already involved in this affair, and I will not turn a blind eye to it!"

Alexia's frown deepened as she continued to look at Natasha. "You really don't have to help me."

"I'm not doing it for you either." Natasha was finally starting to feel impatient. A hint of annoyance flickered across her pretty eyes.

"What do you mean?"

"I'm doing it for Kenneth. If I don't take care of you, then he will. Do you really think that I'll leave him alone with you?" Natasha asked Alexia.

The answer took Alexia completely by surprise. "Why you-"

"Hush, now. As mad as you are right now, wait till you've completely recovered before taking your anger out on me," Natasha cut her off.

Alexia glared up at Natasha, so furious that she was at a loss for words. When she pondered over the matter a little longer, a memory crossed her mind. "Back then, this was how my savior saved me..."

When Natasha heard that, she nodded. "You were still a child at that time, right?"

Alexia fell silent.

"However, he does have the terrible habit of putting himself in danger for me. He even stabbed himself a few times in order to save me in the past," Natasha stated flatly.

When Alexia heard that, she frowned.

Her encounter with Kenneth was nothing in comparison to what Kenneth had done for Natasha.

In the driver's seat, Mike was listening in on the ladies' quarrel. When he heard Natasha's statement, he could not help but gape in disbelief. "Is that true, Natasha? Kenneth did that to himself?"

"Of course it's true. Why else do you think we call him a psycho? Someone wanted him to stab himself once, but he decided to toss in a freebie," Natasha mocked. Despite her words, she lifted the corners of her lips smugly.

From Alexia's perspective, Natasha was bragging shamelessly.

As for Mike, he could not help but burst into laughter. "Kenneth sure is something else. Even his method of courting a woman defers so much from the general population. Oh god."

Natasha's smile widened when she heard Mike's comment.

On the other hand, Alexia was huffing. "What's so special about that? My savior has always been a good man, forsaking his own safety for the sake of others."

Upon hearing that, Natasha chuckled. "Ms. Harper, do you really know him well, or are we not talking about the same person?"

"What do you mean?" Alexia asked.

"What I mean is that the guy is just a b*stard that will achieve his goals by any means possible. He's not as righteous and selfless as you think he is. Don't be fooled by that face of his," Natasha said.

At those words, Mike could not control himself and burst out laughing.

On the contrary, Alexia furrowed her eyebrows. "How could you say that about my savior? He loves you so much—"

"I'm just telling the truth."

Alexia shot a venomous glare at Natasha. "And to think that for a moment back there, I thought that you could be a suitable match for my savior. But now, it looks like I've thought wrongly. He would do anything for you, yet you talk about him in such a degrading manner!"

"Back there? When?" Natasha caught onto the keywords immediately.

"It doesn't matter anymore, for I've realized now that you don't deserve him at all!" Alexia huffed.

"So?" Natasha asked. "Are you gonna tell him that?"

Alexia hesitated. After a while, she replied, "He loves you so much. If he replaces out, he will be heartbroken, so I won't tell him. But, if you have any conscience left in you, please leave him of your own accord."

To her surprise, Natasha started laughing.
