Chapter 474 A Mysterious Figure
Natalia's face was flushed. She gathered her hair and smiled shyly.
"Well... Although I don't think it's realistic to be together forever, I could promise you first for your
sincerity."
The corners of Archie's lips curled into a smile.
"Thank you, Natalia."
Archie held Natalia's hand and pulled her into his arms. He pressed his chin against her head and
lowered his head to kiss Natalia's forehead.
"I love you, Natalia."
Natalia stretched out her hands to wrap around Archie's waist. There were lots of happy noise around
her, but Natalia felt warm and quiet because of Archie's warm embrace.
After putting on the river lanterns, Natalia and Archie walked around. It was already 12 o'clock in the
evening when they were ready to go back.
Anne was a child, and she was easy to get sleepy, so an hour ago, old Madame McCarthy sent them a
message saying that she couldn't find them, and went back first.
When they put on the river lanterns, they were separated into two different directions, so it was difficult
for them to gather again.
Natalia received old Madame McCarthy's message and knew they went home first, so she continued
walking around with Archie.
It was the place that Archie grew up, so Natalia wanted to know more.
They walked hand in hand for a while until they reached the parking lot.
Archie asked Natalia to wait here, and he went to get the car.
Natalia agreed. The parking lot was not far from the river, about a few hundred meters away. She stood
there and could still see the stone road that they just walked over, extending to the river.
There were still a lot of people on the other side of the river. For them, it was still early at 12 o'clock. It
was the beginning of their night, so people got more and more.
Natalia held her arms and waited for a while.
There was a sudden noise behind Natalia.
Natalia thought that Archie was driving over. Just as she was about to turn around, a strong wind blew
over.
Natalia's heart skipped a beat and she subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but it was still too late.
The man was very fast. Before she moved, he had already covered her mouth and dragged her behind
a big tree.
Natalia struggled hard and used all the skills she had learned before.
However, it was useless.
The man's reaction and skills were extremely fast.
In addition, she had to take into account the child in her belly, so she could not exert all her strength.
After a few moves, she gradually fell into a disadvantageous position.
Natalia's mouth was covered and dragged into a dark alley.
"Don't move! I won't hurt you. I just need your help."
The voice of the man was very hoarse, as if he was extremely tired, and thirsty.
Natalia tensed up and sniffed blood.
She tried to look back, "Are you hurt?"
The man didn't say anything, but Natalia already knew the answer as the smell of blood become
heavier.
Natalia suddenly relaxed for no reason.
She whispered, "Let me have a look for you."
The man still did not speak, but his hand covering Natalia's mouth quietly loosened a little, so that
Natalia could speak clearly and breathe.
"I can't win you, so you can rest assured. I just want to see your injury. I believe that you brought me
here because of this."
The man's hand holding her wrist paused for a moment, and then released her.
"Sorry, I'm in trouble."
His voice was low. It was hard to imagine that under such circumstances, a kidnapper would say sorry
to the people who were tied up.
This made Natalia more determined.
He was not an ordinary person.
She turned around and found she was in a dim alley far away from the bustling street. There were no
lights, and very few people passed by.
Natalia could not see him clearly. Under the dim moonlight, she could only vaguely see that the man
was tall and strong. He sat on the wet ground, breathing weakly.
She frowned.
Natalia stretched out his hand in the direction of the smell of blood.
It was full of blood. The man groaned as if he was enduring great pain.
Natalia said in a deep voice, "Your injury is very serious. I can't see in this place, and it's not convenient
to treat it. If you believe me, come with me. I'll take you to a place to treat your injury." Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
The man did not speak. Natalia could feel that he was looking at her.
He was scrutinizing Natalia!
After a while, he said, "How can I trust you?"
Natalia said coldly, "You're the one who needs help now. Whether you believe it or not, it's up to you,
not my duty."
The man was silent for a while again.
At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps outside.
Natalia looked toward the entrance of the alley and saw a familiar figure.
She was overjoyed and was about to say something.
Suddenly, Natalia's mouth was covered again. Before she could make a sound, she was dragged
inside.
"Well... release your hands!"
"Don't move! If you move again, I'll kill you!"
Suddenly, a dagger was pressed against Natalia's waist. Before Natalia could react, a strong wind blew
in front of her. Then, Natalia heard a muffled groan, and everything in front of her was spinning. She
was brought into a warm and familiar chest.
"..."
Something fell heavily on the ground, and Natalia quickly stopped Archie.
"Archie, stop!"
Archie stopped, and his face was frosty.
Archie held Natalia's shoulder and looked her up and down carefully. When he didn't see the wound,
his face softened a little.
But Natalia was very anxious.
Pushing Archie away, Natalia wanted to go forward, but Archie grabbed her.
"What are you doing?"
"Archie, he's not a bad guy! He didn't want to hurt me."
Natalia explained, but Archie didn't believe it at all. His face was still frighteningly cold.
Archie looked coldly at the person who was kicked away by him on the ground. The man curled up
there and spat out a mouthful of blood. He was almost breathless.
Natalia's face changed her countenance.
Archie McCarthy stepped forward, stepped on his chest with one foot, and snapped, "Tell me! Who are
you?"
The man slightly opened his eyes, and half of his face was covered with blood. His face could not be
seen clearly, and his voice was hoarse.
He glanced at Archie McCarthy, then at Natalia, and finally tilted his head.
He passed out thoroughly.
…
On the way back, there was only silence.
Natalia sat in the passenger seat, secretly glancing at the man who was driving beside her from time to
time, and then glanced at the dying man on the back seat.
She reached out and gently pulled his sleeve.
"Hey, don't be angry. He's really not a bad guy. He just wanted me to help him and didn't want to hurt
me."
