His Domineering Lover

"They are coming at me."

Emilia wanted her dead.

"Shut up," Adrian growled peevishly.

Adrian looked into the distance in front of him and cursed.

The drivers following them were apparently well trained. He couldn't get rid of them.

Adrian stomped on the pedal and zigzagged forward. The vigorous sway made Aleigha sick.

"Are you alright?"

Adrian asked in a low voice.

"I'm fine. Don't worry about me." Aleigha clutched onto the door armrest.

The car drove out of downtown, but those cars were still behind them.

Aleigha felt suffocating when they got close to Hillsland Alley, the place she had been kidnapped in her previous life.

"Adrian, don't go to Hillsland Alley. Take a detour." She sounded terrified.

She didn't want to go through what had happened after she'd been kidnapped again.

"There is only a country road if we don't go to Hillsland Alley and my sports car can't manage that bumpy road."

Adrian didn't understand her sudden request.

"Damn it!" Adrian smashed his fist on the wheel.

"What's wrong?"

"We're running out of fuel."

Aleigha was in despair.

That's it. What happened will happen again, she thought helplessly.

The car squeaked as Adrian suddenly hit the brakes.

"Let's go," Adrian got out of the car.

"Do you have a death wish? They will catch us immediately!"

Despite what she said, Aleigha got off and followed Adrian.

Adrian reached out to grab her hand and then took her to the forest on one side of the road.

Those men quickly gave up their cars too and followed behind them.

Aleigha somehow was amused by the number of men Emilia sent to catch her. Nine men for a defenseless girl.

And the man leading them was Lainey's brother-inlaw, Lionel Sanders.

He was the most abominable manAleigha had ever known.

Lainey's sister had been a good person, the only one who had treated Aleigha nicely.

But unfortunately, she had passed away.

Sometimes Aleigha thought it was so unfair that people with good hearts had died young.

'Are you with me?"

Adrian found that she was abstracted.

"Where are you going to take me?" Aleigha asked.

"Stopped asking and keep running. They can't do anything to you."

If his tone had been softer, Aleigha would definitely have been moved.

Adrian always had a touch of arrogance in his voice.

They ran like hell hand in hand.

Before long, they were deep in the forest, but Adrian seemed to be very familiar with this place.

Aleigha was in an expensive dress she bought this morning, which was torn by the branches on the skirt. Her legs had many scratches too.

She didn't have the same stamina as Adrian and soon was gasping and slowing down.

"Let me carry you."

Adrian was about to bent down butAleigha dragged him up.

"It's not necessary. I can make it."

Her scratches were aching and she was sweating, but she sounded determined.

Adrian's eyes were tinged with admiration.

Bang!

They heard a gunshot behind them.

Adrian yanked Aleigha behind his back as those men came closer.

They all had weapons with them.

Aleigha shivered in horror.

"Mr. Xiao, stay out of this and give us that woman," Lionel said.

Lionel wasn't afraid of Adrian because no matter how powerful he was, he was now in a deserted forest and alone.

He had no reason to fear him at least at present.

"Why do you want her?"

Adrian shielded Aleigha with his body and clenched her hand tightly.

"You should go. There are too many of them,"

Aleigha whispered.

She didn't want Adrian to get involved and get injured.

"Shut up. I'm the one who gives orders!"

"Don't be so bossy!"

Lionel snorted and pointed his gun at Adrian. "It's no time to play the hero."

"I'm in a foul mood and if I were you, I would behave."

Adrian chuckled and moved backward slowly.

"I've given your chance. Don't blame me." Lionel's face suddenly sunk, "Go catch them!"

As all those men dashed toward them, Adrian gave Aleigha a push. "Run as fast as you can!"

"I won't leave without you."

"You must listen to me now."

Adrian roared and punched the man coming at him on the nose.

Aleigha paused and then turned to run.

She fished her phone out but found there was no service here.

Soon Lionel caught up with her quickly and shot in her direction without hesitation.

It didn't hit Aleigha but she tripped and fell in shock.

She grimaced in pain and felt something cold against her forehead. "Let me go and I'll help you," she said composedly.

"Help me? What can you offer?" Lionel sounded like he was hearing a terrible joke.

"You like Emilia, don't you?"
