Falling in Love : I love you, Today and Forever
Chapter 618: Intense fight - Part 2Chapter 618: Intense fight - Part 2
Maggie let out a smirk after listening to Jared's overconfident words. He had no idea what was awaiting him and who his opponents were.
Maggie believed in Aria's abilities for it was her who had trained the doctor. The woman, at first, had been quite difficult to train. Not only did Aria have to bear with her intense workload, she even had to submit her reports and study for her exams to get a permanent posting in the hospital.
It was in this midst that she had decided to train and practice and it was her determination that compelled Maggie to help her learn and master the art to handle guns. Aria had balanced her work and her training with such finesse that Maggie herself was rendered speechless. All she had was admiration and respect for her.
Once she finished her learning, Aria had even surpassed her in handling guns and Maggie knew what the outcome of the unavoidable fight would be. But what worried her was she did not know how many men among Jared's group were lurking around them.
Maggie already had an inkling that was close to his turf and this added more to their troubles for they did not have much manpower with them. All she could do was hope for Aria to have been smart enough to alert Noah and anybody in her group, without alarming the spy among them.
Maggie waited for Jared to take action. But to her dismay, he just sat still as he waited for the people for the other car to take action. He just glimpsed at Maggie before he stared at the waiting for the fight to begin.
However, even after waiting for long, he did not detect any movements from them. It was as though the occupants had no intention of moving away from the place whatsoever. Neither did they intend to fight him.
Jared was losing his calm slowly and he held onto his gun tight, unable to bear the situation he was thrown into suddenly. Every time he had been the man in control and this unexpected detour was getting onto his nerves slowly. His frown deepened and he tapped his thighs in restlessness.
Maggie's stifled a smile when she noticed Jared's condition and she realized what Aria was trying to do at once.
'Brilliant!' She cheered in her mind as she too waited for the man beside her to have a mental breakdown in anticipation and commit errors.
'Well done, Aria. Let the bastard suffer in anticipation and suspense.' She humphed and looked at the car, her eyes twinkling in delight.
Fortunately for her, neither man in her car noticed her strange reaction as they stared at the car ahead of them.
A long time passed and when nothing happened, Jared lost it completely. He could not sit still anymore and wait for his prey.
"What scoundrel is driving that car!! If you want to attack me, just come to me directly. Why do you need to play around?" He barked and Maggie flinched and covered her ears on hearing him roar. She gave him a sardonic and averted her gaze away from him before the man's eyes fell on her.
Jared was now beyond redemption. He was livid and all he wanted was to kill the man for even daring to follow him all till here, let alone force him to stop his car before he reached his destination.
Unable to sit still anymore, Jared looked around him first to make sure there was no one lurking in the dark. He then gestured for the driver to get out of the car and take action.
Barely had he stepped out of the car when they heard a bullet shot from behind them and the driver fell dead to the ground immediately. It was a clean shot and one kill.
Maggie was too stunned to speak at the sudden but thrilling attack. For a moment, she could not comprehend what had happened before realization dawned upon her. She had misunderstood Aria's plan. It had never been her intention to wait for Jared to attack first. She was waiting for him to leave the car before she attacked him.
Who knew it would not be Jared but the driver who would be hit first? Yet, Maggie was not disheartened by it. With their driver gone, Jared would now have to step up and jump to the battle field himself. And to make matters worse, Jared had no idea where his hunter was while Aria's prey was lying out in the open.
Maggie now had the chance. The doors were unlocked and Jared was distracted. Aria would not fire at her, Maggie trusted her on this. Without hesitating anymore, she opened the door and jumped out of the car, utterly startling Jared.
In the blink of an eye, his driver had been shot dead and Maggie had escaped from his clutches and Jared had been unable to do anything. Moreover, he was all alone and it would take a few minutes for his gang members to appear.
Jared barely had barely prepared himself mentally to fight the battle alone to stall for time when he heard a gunshot again and he ducked in time to avoid being its victim.
"Dammit," He gritted his teeth and cursed at his state. "Where the fuck are my men? They must have been here by now."
Just as he was about to scold them for their languid actions, he heard a car reversing and he lifted his head immediately to see what was happening. He saw red when the car started moving and without caring about anything else, he lowered the window, pointing his gun at the unknown victim.
He could only make out a silhouette at most for it was too dark around him and the driver had been too fast for him to even see clearly. In his desperate attempt to stop his opponent, he fired a shot. But the bullet that swooshed in the air, not even anywhere near his victim.
Jared again, heard a bullet shot and this time, he was not quick enough to dodge it. It accurately hit his arm and Jared gnashed his teeth in pain. However, he did not let go of his gun and fired recklessly again, in the direction the car had driven only to miss his target again.
