Chapter 739
“Take them down!”
She showed no mercy!
Upon her return today, Felicity had already planned to completely sever all
ties.
Now that things had come to this, there was no place for benevolence, even
toward the guards who had once protected her.
Crack!
Thud!
The scene of battle turned brutally intense, blood splattering the walls in an
instant, screams piercing through the stillness of the night.
Felicity’s heart raced. The outcome hinged on this single moment. Not waiting
for the melee to conclude, she advanced with purpose, intent on entering her
late husband’s former room.
However, a gray figure suddenly blocked her way.
Felicity was shocked!
Is this a human or a ghost? Why does it seem to appear out of nowhere?

“Madam, it’s time to stop.”
Alfred sighed at Felicity with a faint sadness on his face.
”
They were originally a family, but why did they have to fight each other?
Hearing his words, Felicity, who was initially panicked, turned angry.
“What do you mean by ‘it’s time to stop? It’s you who should stop!”
Felicity pointed at Alfred, hysterically yelling.

“You’re the ones who stripped me of my rightful possessions! You’re the ones
who used any means necessary! You’re the ones who tormented me for over
two decades!
“I’m the victim! As a wife, I just want to retrieve my husband’s relics, to
remember him by! Am I wrong?
“I’m not wrong! You are! You’ve never treated me as a human being!”
Alfred simply observed Felicity’s outburst, sighing softly.
He could somewhat understand Felicity’s feelings.
However, their positions were different. He wouldn’t let her do anything
reckless just because she was angry.
“Get out of my way! You accomplice of Terence! You executioner!”
Felicity was well-educated. Even when she was furious, she maintained her
refined manner of speech.
“Madam, I, a mere servant, dare not comment on your grievances with the
Quillen family, but Old Mr. Quillen has ordered that no one is allowed to enter
this room. If you want to go in, you’ll have to step over my body.”
Alfred said calmly.
“You…”
Felicity was slightly taken aback, her chest heaving. After taking a deep
breath, she gritted her teeth and said, “Don’t think I don’t dare to do so!”
As soon as her words fell, she took two steps back.
The four experts behind her simultaneously attacked Alfred.
But they didn’t stop there. Aware that the elderly man before them was a
formidable opponent, they even drew daggers.
Whoosh!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe four moved at different speeds.
The fastest was a tall and thin man, who aimed his dagger directly at Alfred’s
throat.
It seemed like an attempt to deliver a fatal blow, but in reality, he aimed to
force Alfred to change his position.
Now that Alfred was backed against the wall, he had no worries about being
attacked from behind. Since the odds were four against one, the bodyguards
naturally intended to surround him from all sides, leveraging their advantage.
Left or right?
The thin man was already silently pondering how Alfred would dodge his
dagger.
However, to his surprise, Alfred had no intention of doing so.
When the dagger was only a few inches away from his throat, his left hand
extended from his sleeve.
His movement was very slow!
Really slow.
It looked like the movement of an ordinary old man.
However, in the next moment, the thin man was shocked. In the blink of an
eye, Alfred’s left hand had blocked his wrist holding the dagger.
“Hmph, do you think you can block it?”
Although the thin man wasn’t very strong, he didn’t believe his strength was
inferior to that of an old man.
