Chapter 610 - There are Prices to Pay (1/2)

After Jason pounced on Ivan, Laura dragged her feet towards the bedroom. Her heart was pounding hard at the thought of dying and tears continued to fall like a waterfall. It was so scary.

Behind her, she could hear the sound of punching from Jason. Trying her best to ignore it, she made her way to the next floor. The mansion was large, so it took her quite a long time to arrive in front of Jason's bedroom.

'I have to open the door.'

Laura's hand trembled as she put her finger on the scanner. The bedroom needed Jason's fingerprint to be able to get inside. Only recently did he add hers because he wished for her to come inside, which of course, she rejected. This would be the very first time she used the scanner.

After a short time that seemed like forever, the door opened. Laura opened it to reveal a large room with little furniture. There was only one bed, one large table with its chair, sofa, and cupboard. The others were Jason's items that he placed neatly.

Wiping her tears, Laura proceeded to come inside. She was about to close the door when a hand appeared before her, forcing the door to stay open.

”Kyaaaaaaaaa!”

The sight of a hand appearing out of nowhere caused the girl to freak out. She attempted to close the door, but her strength was not a match for the hand in front of her.

The door was flung open as Laura skidded back from her position. Her eyes were unfocused as she could only see one hand in front of them. Slowly, a man appeared before her starting from the right hand, head, body, left hand, and lastly the lower body.

”It seems that I startle you, little miss,” the man chuckled.

Fear crept up on Laura's body as she inched further from the door. The sight of this man terrified her. How was he able to appear out of nowhere? He couldn't possibly disappear, right?

The man watched Laura move away from him as he shook his head. He didn't really like the task that was given to him this time, but he had to follow his master's order. From his pocket, he took out his knife.

”We bear no grudges, but you have to die, so pardon me.”

With that, he stepped forward as he swung his sword at an alarming speed. Laura was shocked by his movement and stumbled to the side. Pushing her body up, she tried to get away. Anywhere was fine as long as she was not near the man's reach.

'Jason, come here quickly!'

Internally, she wished for Jason to come and helped her as soon as possible. She was running when she felt something slashed her shoulder as pain followed it. Her feet tripped with one another as she tumbled into the bed, falling straight on top of it.

”There's no use running,” the man chuckled. He smiled when he saw the deep knife's wound on Laura's back. The girl was writhing in pain as blood continued to pour down on her shoulder, dyeing her white clothes in red color. There was nothing fun with killing a little girl, but he had to do it.

Laura was crying hard as all she could feel was pain. Her body refused to move no matter what she did.

The man raised his knife, intending to end the little girl's life when he heard a gunshot right behind him.

BANG!

His knife was flung far away from him. He turned around and saw Jason standing behind him. He was holding a gun with a blood stained hand. His eyes were filled with deep hatred towards the man.

”You bastard!”

He lunged forward, reaching the man in a split second. The man was planning on using Laura as his shield, but Jason was too quick. Laura had shifted her position, not letting him grab her.

”Laura, hang in there! Do you hear me?” Jason yelled.
