Chapter 271 If I Let Go, You Will Die
Kiera watched as Lachlan took the marble back from her hand, her expression freezing on her face. The next second, she became emotionless again and let out a cold hum.
For no reason at all, a hint of annoyance surged in her heart!
“Daddy, are we playing with Chloe and Kiera this afternoon?” Little Nora asked expectantly at this time.
Lachlan glanced at Kiera’s cold face and coughed awkwardly. “Miss Ward, what a coincidence to run into you! How about we have lunch together and let the two kids keep each other company in the afternoon?”
“Auntie…” Chloe tugged on Kiera’s hand with an eager look on her face. Although this little girl was sometimes quite stubborn, she had a very pure heart. After playing with Nora for a while just now, she had already forgotten about their previous unpleasantness and wanted to find someone to play with.Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Looking at the two children’s hopeful expressions, Kiera glared at Lachlan before reluctantly agreeing. Well… since he helped her deal with Jude earlier, she would give him some respect.
Kiera had never eaten alone outside with another man before; even though there were two children present it still felt somewhat ambiguous. However, she wasn’t worried that Lachlan would do anything to her – she knew he didn’t have any intentions towards her.
Thinking like this made it easier for Kiera…
The two adults left the restaurant accompanied by the two children and went to another one instead since they might be talked about here due to what happened earlier.
At this time, however, there were pairs of eyes secretly watching every move that Lachlan made…
“This guy is really lucky! That beauty beside him is so damn pretty!” Dagger sneered as he spoke.
“Lucky? I’ll make sure he lies flat soon enough!” Makhi gritted his teeth angrily in response.
“Mr. Davis … they’ve entered that restaurant! When should we make our move?” Dagger suggested impatiently
“Why don’t we just cover our faces and go in there straight away?” Makhi scolded him sternly. “This isn’t Middle Truyas battlefield you know!”
“How many times do I need to tell you? We’re assassins now! What does assassination mean? Killing people is an art form!”
…
The restaurant they entered was similar to those breakfast pie porridge shops where customers couldn’t order dishes but rather served themselves then paid later upon leaving.
After the four of them finally found an empty seat, Lachlan casually placed the Bentley car keys on the table to reserve their spot. It was a weekend and there were many customers in this restaurant near the amusement park.
Since it was so difficult to find an empty seat, they had to occupy it quickly. Then, Lachlan and Kiera took Nora and Chloe respectively to get some food.
With people coming and going here, they naturally didn’t want to leave their children alone at the booth.
On their first trip back, Lachlan and Kiera each brought some food back to the table including two bowls of seafood dumpling soup. Then they left again to go choose more dishes.
After they left, a young man wearing a mask stopped by their booth among the crowd. “Let me add something for you! Drink until you die! Hahaha…”
This young man was none other than Makhi, president of Blood Slaughter Association. He had been monitoring every move that Lachlan made.
Now he quickly poured half a bag of white powder into one bowl of dumpling soup where he had placed Lachlan’s Bentley key earlier before stirring it with his spoon several times.
The powder dissolved in water instantly but from its surface appearance, there seemed no change in the dumpling soup whatsoever.
Makhi sneered then blended into the crowd before leaving quickly.
A little over a minute later, Lachlan and Kiera returned, carrying several dishes of food. Nora and Chloe each held two bowls of rice.
This time, the four of them, two adults and two children, finally sat down to start their meal.
Perhaps due to convenience, Kiera directly sat in the seat where the Bentley keys were placed.
Lachlan didn’t say anything either. He put aside his car keys and sat across from Kiera.
Since the food had just been served and no one had touched it yet, it didn’t matter where they sat.
In the next moment, before starting her meal, Kiera picked up the seafood chowder and took a few sips.
Seeing this scene unfold right before him made Makhi’s face suddenly change color as he exclaimed, “What? How come she drank it? Damn!”
He cursed angrily with an expression mixed between anxiety and struggle since he originally intended only poisoning that guy but now might end up killing innocent people too?
At this time though when Lachlan ate some bites then glanced over at Kiera unintentionally; his eyes suddenly changed too – full of surprise mixed with suspicion!
“Why aren’t you eating your own meal? What are you looking at me for?” Kiera felt Lachlan’s gaze and furrowed her brow, asking him.
She could feel the aggressiveness in Lachlan’s eyes at this moment, staring at her so intensely that it made her feel a bit uneasy.
The next second, without saying a word, Lachlan directly swapped his own bowl with Kiera’s seafood chowder.
Kiera was stunned for a moment, her delicate face showing a hint of embarrassment, “What do you mean?”
“No problem! I think your bowl is delicious with lots of seafood in it. You can have mine!” Lachlan shook his head and said with a smile.
Kiera blushed and glared at Lachlan, feeling both embarrassed and annoyed. “Who wants to drink yours? You’re not allowed to touch my bowl either!”
What did this bastard mean?
Wasn’t this… like wanting to indirectly kiss her?
Originally, Kiera thought that this man had no ulterior motives towards her.
Now it seemed that…
Men are all the same, after all.
At first, he acted like a gentleman and always talked about his wife, making it seem like he had no other thoughts.
Originally, was he just a reserved man?
She gave Lachlan a cold stare, filled with contempt and disgust towards the man.
As he spoke, he reached out his hand, intending to snatch back the bowl of seafood chowder that she had already sipped from.
However, at this moment, her slender and fair hand was grabbed by Lachlan.
Not only that, but Lachlan’s other hand also directly picked up the bowl of seafood chowder and he gulped it down completely, making a “glug glug” sound!
“You…”
“You scoundrel! Let go!”
Upon seeing this, Kiera’s blush spread from her face to her ears.
Eyes widened in embarrassment, staring at Lachlan!
This jerk, so impatiently, drank down the seafood chowder that had been contaminated with her own saliva?
Was the taste really that good?
Not only that, but he also grabbed onto her delicate and slender hand and refused to let go!
“If I let go, you’re going to die!” he said.
After drinking the bowl of dumpling soup, Lachlan wiped his mouth and smirked.
A pure and refined dragon’s true energy flowed through Kiera’s hand, entering her body and beginning to dissolve the toxins within her!
