Chapter 184 - 184: 184: The Other Side of This Man
She was the one who applied medicine to Baron Lawrence’s wounds, and no one Imew better than her how seriously injured he was. Despite the pain from his old and new injuries combined, he was crawling on the cement ground, using his abdominal strength to move forward. Enna clenched her fists, unable to describe the feeling in her heart.
Even if it wasn’t her who was crawling, she could imagine how painful it must be.
Her eyes were fixed on the man who moved like the wind, showing no sign of pain. She watched as he crawled towards the bus, leaped up like a cheetah and threw the smoke bomb through the window. He was the first to climb into the bus, his movements quick and agile!
Gunshots were heard from inside.
Enna knew it was a drill, and no casualties were possible, yet she couldn’t help but clasp her hands, gripping her bag’s strap tightly, her knuckles turning white.
People around her were pointing and discussing the events in the center of the field.
The buzzing of the crowd around her felt close, yet distant. Finally, there was movement inside the bus. Led by Baron Lawrence, the special forces calmly walked out, holding several men who looked like gangsters.
“Hostage rescue mission successful! Time taken: 2 minutes, 35 seconds! Casualties: o! Hostage casualties: o! Gangsters captured: 6! Total number of gangsters: 6!”
It was too perfect, too amazing, too thrilling!
The audience automatically stood up, applauding thunderously.
Enna also stood up and clapped. She didn’t know if it was her imagination, but the man leading the team, standing tall like a blade, seemed to glance towards her.
However, when she looked again, he was already gone.
After the first round of hostage rescue drills, there were other military performances.
Enna’s gaze followed the man at the center of attention as he changed back into his military uniform. His face was slightly pale, but his features were sharp and commanding, standing tall at the Command Post, giving orders calmly. She watched him shining brightly, getting all the attention on stage, as if she was seeing him for the first time, understanding the determination and strength behind his dominance!
Finally, under the frenzy of the flashing camera lights and applause from the audience, the military performance came to a successful conclusion.
The man at the command post calmly removed his earmuffs, looking towards the stands. As his gaze fell on her, others noticed and followed suit. In the blink of an eye, all eyes were on Enna—
“Who’s that woman? How come she’s sitting in General Lawrence’s seat?” “Yeah, who is she? What’s her relationship with General Lawrence?”
“I’ve never seen her before, why is she here now? Could she have chased him all the way here, clinging to General Lawrence?”
“Look at her weak and tender appearance, how could she be worthy of the General? A man like the General needs a woman like Ms. Young at least to be a match, right?”
A tidal wave of gossip swept over her.
Enna felt as if her clothes had been stripped off, and she was suddenly exposed to the public, completely helpless as people pointed at her.
Some rumors reached her ears, and she tightened her lips.. Although the corners of her mouth turned white, she still straightened her back, as if she hadn’t heard anything, sitting upright in her seat!
