Chapter 1352
It was dark outside.
They walked out of the yard, and the car behind them was also black, as if it could integrate into the night.
Anthea was the same as Adam. Even if he was fully armed and his face was covered with camouflage painting, she could still recognize him in an instant.
She held his big hand tightly.
Adam was even stronger than usual. He stroked her head with his gloved hand and said, "Don't worry. I will."
Anthea nodded firmly.
After taking a deep look at her, Adam set off with his men.
They had to cross the border in the dark, and every second was accompanied by danger.
From the day Anthea met him for the first time, she knew that he was engaged in a high-risk career, and it was not the first time for him to go on a task, but it was the first time that she participated and watched him leave with her own eyes.
Her heart was beating wildly.
Perhaps because he was going to deal with Amelie who was a treacherous person, Anthea was worried.
While she was worried, Anthea was also deeply proud of him. She felt that he was a hero and had a sense of honor.
Anthea and the other military doctor were on standby.
She carefully checked the medicine in the medicine box over and over again and carried it on her back, waiting for an order to be given at any time.
She had to be highly concentrated and ready for war.
The seconds ticked by.
Anthea's eyes moved between the watch on her wrist and the dark night.
At about 4 o'clock in the morning, a black car drove from far to near.
She held her breath.
When the car stopped, the people inside walked down one after another.
In the distance, Adam was walking in front with one hand on his waist. His hat was gone, revealing his short black hair. He walked so fast as if he were walking with a strong wind. There were sixteen people, not a single one left.
They returned safe and sound!
Only then did Anthea realize that her clenched hands were already wet.
She ran over quickly.
In front of him, Anthea stood on tiptoe and held Adam's neck with both hands.
She buried her body deeply into his sturdy chest.
Anthea said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Honey, you're back!"
Adam wrapped his arms around her and placed his palm on her back.
He felt moved in his heart. "Yes, I'm back safely."
Anthea took a deep breath of his masculine scent and felt his body temperature. Her smile finally appeared bit by bit.
She asked with concern, "How's the mission?"
"It went well." Adam showed a joyful smile on his face as he said, "All the women and children who were abducted have been rescued and transferred to the local government. They are all safe now!" In fact, seeing them come back, Anthea had already guessed it.
She was overjoyed. "Great!"
After all of her tense emotions disappeared, Anthea finally noticed the ambiguous gazes from the
others.
She was extremely embarrassed.
She was so excited that she forgot the environment she was in.
Anthea quickly let go of Adam and carried the medicine cabinet to work.
Although the task was carried out very smoothly and all of them came back, there were still some who were injured, but all were skin trauma, which were not serious for these people who had gone through fire and water.
Just like that, the night of the battle passed.
When they slept, it was already about seven o'clock in the morning.
Anthea had stayed up and was extremely nervous all night. Now she was relaxed and had a deep sleep. When she woke up, it was already noon.
There was a boxed meal beside the bed. Obviously, Adam sent it over.
After washing her face, Anthea went to Adam with the boxed meal.
When she came to the first floor, the others had just finished a short meeting. After the meeting, Adam stood alone by the window with his hands clasped behind his back, looking out of the window with black eyes as if he was thinking about something.
When he heard the footsteps, he turned around.
"Are you awake?"
"Yes!"
When Adam saw her holding a boxed meal in her hand, he knew that she came to him the moment she woke up.
He pulled over the chair next to him and let her sit down.
He touched the lunch box. Luckily, it was a foam box, so the meal was not cold. Adam opened it for her and said, "Sit down and finish your meal."
Anthea nodded obediently.
While she was eating, Adam told her in a low voice, "I just reported the current situation to my superiors. People who were saved in the morning will be sent back to their home."
"Although the task was finished smoothly, we did not manage to catch Amelie. We successfully sneaked into the ship and took control of all the criminals when they were unprepared. Unfortunately, she was no inside."
Adam frowned in the end, unwilling to give up.
Anthea was also unwilling to give up.
Except for rescuing women and children, they also wanted to bring Amelie, who had escaped, to
justice.
Adam continued, "Our main task this time is to rescue the women and children who were kidnapped. We've completed it successfully and are about to leave tonight. Since we didn't catch Amelie, we can only make a long-term plan and send more people to sneak into other countries to catch her."
However, in this way, it was unknown when she would be caught.
It was really outrageous that the murderer was unpunished.
Anthea rolled her eyes and swallowed the food in her mouth. "I have a stupid idea!"
Adam frowned and said, "What kind of stupid idea?"
Anthea sat up straight. She blinked at him with a sly light flashing in her eyes and said, "We can play a trick like before to trap Amelie!"
Adam raised his eyebrows, waiting for her to continue.
"Brother Carter mentioned that Amelie and you have performed tasks here before, right? She must be very familiar with your plan and the safe
houses you've established. This safe house is a new one, which means that you're guarding against her!"
Anthea continued, "Amelie hates us so much now.
She wants to deal with you through the hands of the criminal gang, but her hope was ruined after the success of your sneak attack last night. She must be very angry!"
"I can be the bait. If she sees me, she will be provoked and will never let me off easily!"
"If my intuition is right, Amelie wants to kill both of us! Taking advantage of this, we can lure her into a trap. Next, we can move to a safe house she knows and wait for her to attack us. Then we will ambushed her when she comes!"
She said a lot. It was indeed a good idea.
But the premise was that she had to be the bait herself, and she was in danger all the way.
After he heard that, Adam's face darkened.
It was indeed a stupid idea!
