Chapter 751: Miranda’s Passion
“Beautiful!”
Cara, standing on the second floor of the Western restaurant, couldn’t contain her excitement as she watched her daughter display her prowess, clapping and exclaiming.
“Miranda, you’re amazing!”
Hazel was equally thrilled.
Meanwhile, Alice was completely stunned!
But just as Cara looked on with pride at her daughter, she suddenly felt a numbing sensation and a chill down her spine.
Intuitively, Cara glanced back.
Before she could turn her head, she felt a sharp pain at the back of her neck, and she blacked out.
Before she knew it, a tall and strong figure had silently appeared behind Cara.
With a gentle pat on Cara’s neck, she fainted immediately.
Then, without a sound, the figure effortlessly lifted Cara and leaped off the platform.
“Cara!”
Hazel felt a rush of wind and then Cara was gone, prompting her to shout in alarm.
“Speak! Who are you? Who sent you?”
“What is your purpose?”
Miranda ruthlessly interrogated the white-clothed young man.
The sharp heels of her shoes caused a trickle of blood to appear on his chest.
The stunning and formidable female CEO seemed to have transformed into a female tyrant at this moment.
The white-clothed young man appeared weak and pained as he glanced in a certain direction, his face showing a sinister smirk.
“Release her, or I will kill your mother!”
At that moment, a rough and icy voice interrupted.
Miranda turned to see her mother, her face instantly changing. “Mother!”
“What have you done to my mother?”
Seeing her mother being held by the intruder, Miranda trembled visibly, her face showing an inexplicable fear.
“Rest assured, your mother has just passed out, not dead yet! However, whether she lives or dies depends on you! Now, release my hostage.”
Silas sneered, speaking sternly.
Indeed, the visitor was none other than Silas, the elder of the Reclusive Willis family, an immensely powerful figure at the peak of Nascent Soul later stage. He had joined in just in case.
Initially, Silas had thought that he wouldn’t need to take action at all.
However, Lachlan’s wife had given him a “surprise.”
It turned out that her combat power was comparable to Nascent Soul early stage.
“Release my mother! Otherwise, I will kill him!”
Miranda’s eyes flickered as she stepped on the white-clothed young man, her tone cold and stern.
“Release my hostage first!”
“What, do you want to watch your mother die?”
Silas held onto Cara, unyielding.
Upon hearing this, Miranda’s expression changed multiple times, before she finally took a deep breath and said, “In that case, we release both hostages at once. Will you agree?”
Unlike this white-clothed young man, Miranda sensed a great threat from Silas. She knew that she was no match for him.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
In this situation, if she didn’t immediately release the white-clothed young man, the other party would undoubtedly have no reservations. Both she and her mother would likely not survive. So the last resort was to exchange hostages at the same time. This way, Miranda might be able to escape with her mother, with a glimmer of hope.
However, as she finished speaking, Silas glanced at the white-clothed young man, his eyes showing a hint of coldness and indifference.
“You, woman, do you have the right to negotiate with me? Do you think you can threaten me with Casworon Willis? Today, you won’t escape from my grasp!”
Without another word, the elder of the Reclusive Willis family casually threw Cara aside like trash.
However, he did not throw her towards Miranda!
An expert at the peak of Nascent Soul later stage tossing someone aside like trash was indeed terrifying!
Thud!
Cara’s body slammed heavily into the outer wall of a nearby shop.
The sound of bones breaking and tendons snapping filled the air.
In her unconscious state, Cara coughed up a mouthful of blood, and then fell into stillness.
“Mother!”
Seeing this scene, Miranda was dumbfounded for a moment.
Then, she let out a heart-wrenching scream.
Her exquisite face twisted with intense anger and fear, a terrifying intent to kill and rage rising from her heart.
“I’ll kill you!”
Miranda screamed, and with a powerful stomp, her high heel pierced through the white-clothed young man’s throat. Blood gushed out, and the man convulsed before surrending to death.
“Mother!”
In the next moment, Miranda sprinted to Cara’s side.
She crouched down, her trembling hands gently touching Cara’s face.
At that moment, Cara weakly opened her eyes, as if to smile at her daughter.
“Miranda…”
Cara tried to speak but coughed up blood mixed with internal organs.
Then, she closed her eyes and remained still.
“Mom!”
“Mom, don’t scare me! Don’t…”
“No, don’t…”
“Mom, wake up!”
“No! No!”
Miranda’s voice choked with sobs, her body trembling, tears streaming down her face.
She could feel her mother’s life slipping away rapidly.
“Ha-ha, dead? I’m sorry, I just casually tossed her aside. But don’t worry, I won’t kill you. At most, I will incapacitate you, because you still have a use for me!”
At that moment, a sarcastic voice sounded.
Trembling, Miranda wiped the blood from her mother’s lips, then slowly turned to face Silas, who stood there with a smug smile on his face.
Boundless sorrow, anger, and hatred consumed Miranda’s heart.
“Ah!”
“I will kill you!”
At that moment, Miranda let out another piercing scream and charged at Silas with the Soulsummoning Banner in hand.
At that moment, she didn’t care about the huge gap in their strengths. Like a tragic moth to the flame, she threw herself at it.
