You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther)

Chapter 1870: Buying Time

Chapter 1870: Buying Time

Felix desperately shook Vicki, questioning her loudly.

At this moment, Luther gave a signal to Mr. Ball.

Seren was dead, and now was the best time to take control of the situation.

Mr. Ball understood and immediately had his men surround the area, quickly subduing all the men in

black.

Vicki was almost dizzy from Felix's shaking.

"Stop shaking me. I'll throw up if you keep doing that!" Vicki muttered lowly. Being pregnant made her

uncomfortable, constantly feeling nauseous. Felix's shaking made her even more uncomfortable,

causing her to retch repeatedly.

She pushed Felix away, leaning to the side, feeling waves of nausea. Since she hadn't eaten anything,

she couldn't vomit, only feeling the discomfort of dry heaves.

Felix quickly soothed her by gently patting her back, helping her relax.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Should we go to the hospital?"

"No, don't touch me. I won't feel uncomfortable if you don't touch me!" Vicki waved her arm backward,

pushing Felix away. Any kind of touch would only make her feel worse. She had been enduring it to

hide her pregnancy, but now she couldn't bear it any longer.

Meanwhile, Cloud stood by, looking down at the two people embracing each other on the ground.

Suddenly, he felt like an outsider with no connection to them. Even though he still held a gun in his

hand, capable of threatening them at any moment, they didn't acknowledge his existence. They acted

as if he was insignificant, one angry and the other complaining, just like a normal couple should be.

And he was the one who was unnecessary.

After Mr. Ball and Luther had their men control the surroundings, they quietly approached Cloud.

As Mr. Ball was about to approach Cloud from behind, trying to subdue him from an advantageous

angle, Cloud contorted his body into an almost impossible position, evading Mr. Ball's attack.

Immediately after, Cloud pulled out his gun and aimed it at the back of Felix's head.

Mr. Ball dared not move anymore, muttering under his breath, "Impressive evasion, Cloud. I

underestimated you. Don't act rashly. Let's have a good discussion. Look around you, Seren is dead,

Seren's people and the ones you brought with you are all under our control. The helicopter has also

been grounded and controlled by us. You alone can't handle so many of us. How about we talk about

the terms?"

Cloud coldly glanced at Mr. Ball but didn't say anything.

Mr. Ball cleared his throat and continued persuading, "Since you killed Seren yourself, it means we

might not be enemies, right? Put down your gun, and let's talk."

Although Felix had a gun pointed at the back of his head, he remained calm instead of panicking.

Even with a gun against him, he slowly turned his head, fearlessly exposing his forehead to the muzzle.

He looked at Cloud, his words clear as he spoke, "Thank you."

He genuinely thanked Cloud because at a critical moment, he had changed sides, killed Seren, and

saved Vicki. Otherwise, Vicki would have perished along with Seren.

Regardless of Cloud's motives, Vicki was safe, and Suzuki Toshi wouldn't harm her. Felix was satisfied.

Cloud didn't expect Felix to thank him. He was momentarily stunned, and even the gun in his hand

moved slightly. He coldly said, "I didn't save you. Why thank me? Can't you see that I'm about to kill

you now?"

Felix chuckled softly, "Thank you for saving Vicki. As for what you want to do with me, I don't care. Go

ahead and do it."

After speaking, he turned around and embraced Vicki from behind, holding her tightly. He spoke with

warmth, one word at a time, "Vicki, don't do anything foolish anymore. Put your life first. Remember to

eat on time every day, and protect our child."

Cloud's expression changed. He didn't know about Vicki's pregnancy before, as she had kept it a

secret. He had discovered it when he secretly infiltrated and heard the subordinates discussing it when

Seren ordered them to bring the female subordinate. He never imagined that they already had a child.

After Vicki had finished retching, she felt much better. Upon hearing Felix's words from behind, it felt

like a farewell.

She became instantly annoyed, "What nonsense are you talking about? Shut up!"

Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of Cloud pointing the gun at Felix, and she instantly

understood.

At this moment, Luther stepped forward cautiously and spoke, "Cloud, no, should I call you Rayan?"

Cloud paused, his expression tense, and didn't answer.

Luther continued, "Rayan, Seren and Athena cooperated. Athena providedaddresses and secret

passage routes to help Seren kidnap Vicki. You were probably unaware of this, right? Including today,

when Athena sent people to assist Seren, it was all kept from you. You found out on your own and

tracked them here, am I right?"

Cloud furrowed his brow. Of course, he was unaware. How could he let someone take Vicki right under

his nose? Let alone let her fall into the hands of that scum Seren.

"Yes, so what?" he replied.

Luther took a breath and continued, "It's evident that you have deep feelings for Vicki, and I've heard

some things about your relationship. Since you saved Vicki, put down your gun. You can have a proper

discussion. Look, everyone around us is on our side now. Even if you kill Felix, you won't be able to

leave here alive. Your actions today have betrayed OGW, and I don't think you can go back. I have a NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

solution. Listen to it and see if it works."

"I know that OGW has been searching for the blueprints for the electromagnetic pulse. I can give them

to you. Take them back and fulfill your duty, misleading them. You can claim that Seren accidentally

killed himself today, and the people from OGW arrived too late. Everyone present today is under our

control, and no one will reveal the truth. This way, you can buy yourself some time. Then, you can

leave OGW, change your name and identity. I can provide you with new documents and endless

amounts of money, guaranteeing that no one will be able to find you. Are you satisfied with this

condition?"

After Luther finished speaking, he took out a USB drive from his pocket. It contained the blueprints for

the modified version of the electromagnetic pulse. At first glance, it appeared normal, and only upon

closer examination would the flaws in the blueprints be discovered. But it would be enough to buy them

some time.

Felix's immediate reaction was to refuse, and he frowned deeply.

"Luther, classified information concerns national security. How can we easily hand it over to Cloud? I

won't allow it. If you dare to do this, we won't even be friends anymore."

Luther extended the USB drive forward. "I can't just watch you die. You and Vicki are involved, and it's

hard to separate me from this. So, what do you think, Rayan? Think carefully."
