Chapter 443 - Four Hundred And Forty-three: They Were Finally Saved (1/2)

The third point of view:

Everything happened so quickly that Miguel couldn't comprehend what was going on until he saw his men dancing? However, in reality, they were not dancing - although it looked that way- but trying to grab the creatures on their body.

Mr. Smuff aka Neon's home-trained soldier mouse was relentless in his attack as he climbed into the men's shirt and continued to explore other areas of his body. The man yelped, searching hysterically for the mouse that made him squeamish and uncomfortable - he had to get rid of the disgusting little creature.

The other man was also left in a similar position. Not only did the spider bite him but it traveled to his lungs, its movements tickling him.

Miguel upon realizing the tide has changed and that it was as a result of the kids, changed his mind immediately. The kids were too dangerous to be kept alive else they foil his plan. He decided to switch from plan A to B; he had to kill them.

His hand traveled down to his waistband and pulled out a gun which he focused on the most lethal kid - Isabella. Unfortunately, Reina saw through his plan, and just when he was about to pull the trigger, she kicked the gun out of his grasp.

Miguel turned to her with furious eyes, ”You bitch!” he raged and tried to hit her but Reina dodged him this time, albeit with difficulty - she had to get her arm treated.

One of Miguel's men finally got his hands on the spider tormenting his life. He pulled it away from his chest forcefully and tossed it against the wall.

”You idiot!” The man then pulled out his gun and from frustration, aimed to shoot at poor Allen.

Jean hardly recovered from the laser attack from the robot when he looked around and from the corner of his eye caught one of his men about to shoot at the little boy. Call it instincts or something, but the instant he saw that scene, Jean's hands went to his gun and before he knew it, shot at his partner.

A man's pained groan was next heard as he was shot in the chest and died at the spot instantly.

Everyone was shocked by the turn of events. Heck, Jean didn't even realize he pulled the trigger until the shock wore off seconds later. All he knew was that when his partner had tried to harm the child, a protective feeling rose in his chest and he knew that moment that he couldn't allow the child to die. So he did the rightful thing - even if it meant going against his own people.

Isabella who had planned to go help out her mother halted in her footsteps when she heard that gunshot and turned to Jean with wide eyes. Did he just kill one of his own people for them?

As if testing the waters to ensure he was completely on their side, she asked him, ”What happened to the favor you were obligated to pay?”

But Jean said itself, ”You got it wrong, it's a little niece,”
