Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen) novel Chapter 2040

Kelly felt a chill run down her spine when she realized the change in behavior in Fade.

She had thought that he was stern and cold back in the hotel, but at that moment, she thought that he was terrifying and cruel.

The evil smile on his face made her shiver slightly. "Mr. Chen, this kind of joke is not funny at all. Let's start training. I'll train well. I won't slack off!"

"Training! Haha, that's not necessary. There's no need," he sneered and continued to approach her with cold eyes. "Because you, Kelly, you're going to die soon."

As he said that, she could feel his strong killing intent. She felt her heart drop, and she stood rooted to the ground.

"No, Mr. Chen, y-you..." She was so scared that her entire body trembled in fear, and her teeth chattered. "Mr. Chen, you have nothing against me. Why would you kill me?"

"Huh?" He snorted as he glared at her. "You are Tiana's junior, and Tiana has always held a deep hatred for me. A few days ago, she tried to kill me, and even harmed my friends and my junior. I would never forgive someone like her."

"You, as the junior of Tiana, are also her accomplice. Therefore, you are my enemy. Do I need a reason to kill you?" He asked coldly.

Upon hearing this, she was so scared that her face turned pale. She quickly waved her hand and explained, "Mr. Chen, I meant you no harm. My senior is not that kind of person. I-1 have always respected you very much. I..."

"Do you think that saying that will help you right now?" Fade retorted. He was slowly approaching her.

All of a sudden, he raised his right hand, and a gleam of energy shot out in an instant toward Kelly's chest.

She felt the horrible killing intent of the aura. Her expression changed dramatically and she didn't dare to stay in the same place. She immediately dodged and narrowly avoided the attack.

It brushed past her and hit a huge tree behind her, which was as thick as a man. The trunk was cut off directly and collapsed.

Under such circumstances, she finally realized that he was trying to kill her.

Suddenly, a strong sense of crisis and desire for survival made her turn around and run away. She no longer cared about anything else, and rushed straight into the dense forest.

Upon seeing this, Fade snorted and immediately caught up with her. "Do you think you can escape?"

As he chased after her, he sent streams of positive energy flying and chased after her like a storm.

She activated her positive energy in a frenzy and desperately fled into the woods. At the same time, she shouted, "Fade, I am a disciple of Lindsay Hall, and also a member of the participant team. You won't be able to get away with this even if you kill me!"

He chuckled as he replied, "If they don't know you're dead, then there's no need for me to worry about whether I can get away with it."

"What?" She paused before realizing something. Her expression quickly fell.

He then continued, "Do you now understand why I've chosen to come here out of all places?"

At this moment, a glimmer of hope appeared in her eyes when she saw a mountain stream in front of her. She sped up and thought, "We are approaching the mountain stream. As long as I jump into the stream, there is a possibility of escape."

As she ran toward the mountain stream, she felt as if her heart was about to jump out of her chest.

They were getting closer and closer, and she felt that she seemed to be able to hear the sound of the water tinkling.

"It's a dead end in front. There's no way for you to escape." Fade's voice came from behind.

Kelly's heart was pounding wildly. She gritted her teeth and ran to the mountain stream, wanting to jump down.

However, just as she rushed to the edge of the mountain stream and saw the stream, her pupils couldn't help but shrink rapidly. With horror in her eyes, she braked desperately to stop the momentum of rushing forward.

That was because at that moment, there was only a stream of fewer than three meters wide under the mountain stream in front of her. Moreover, the water flow was not large, and half of the stream had dried up. At that moment, it was only a little over a meter wide.

The stream was only about half a meter to one meter deep.

In that case, if Kelly jumped down from a height of dozens of meters, even if she could accurately fall into the stream, it would be a dead end.

Just as she stopped, Fade caught up with her. With a sinister smile on his face, he asked, "Trying to jump into the river to escape? Haha, do you think I didn't think about this?"
