Skeletons Of The Marital Closet novel Chapter 317

Chapter 317

She wondered if Shawn had felt the same when Shawn

witnessed Susan cutting her face.

Shawn asked again, “Is this fine? I’m badly injured. I can’t fight back. I’ll slowly pass out from the blood loss. You can absolutely subdue me. Susan, we should start the exchange.”

He impatiently walked forward.

Susan was still stunned. “Exchange… Wait.”

Shawn stopped. “I had already done what you asked. What are you still worried about?”

At the same time, voices could be heard through the miniature earpiece in his ear.

“Mr. Wood, the snipers are in position.”

“The ambush is in position.”

“We can rush in at any moment.”

All of those people were waiting for Shawn’s orders.

They would charge in guns blazing with an order. They would be able to subdue Susan in just a few seconds.

Yet, Shawn did not dare to risk it.

Gale was in Susan’s hands.

Using a sniper was far too dangerous. If there were any mistake, it would be irreversible!

So, Shawn did not say anything. He did not give a single

response. He had everyone stand in place, waiting for his order.

“Mr. Wood? Mr. Wood? Can we fire?”

“The snipers are already in the best position.”

He remained silent.

No one dared to make a move.

It looked like Shawn was there alone, but he had already placed his men all around the whole location.

However, he was still not confident.

A minor mistake could cause him to lose Gale forever.

“Let’s do it now.” Shawn’s lips were already turning white. “You could beat me with one hand right now.”

Her palm scratched against the gravel, which burned in pain as she bled.

Yet, she could not care less at that moment. She quickly turned around to look at what was happening behind her.

Susan had Shawn.

Her knife was against his throat.

There was a thin line between life and death!

She shouted out, “Shawn!”

Was she really just going to look on as he died?

He would die in order to save her.

Shawn wanted her to be safe. He wanted her to live a long and healthy life, but he never thought about the nightmares that would plague her after she witnessed everything happening. The night would stay with her forever, never going away!

Susan laughed and said, “Shawn, you’re always so proud of yourself, but right now, you’re still…”

Before she could finish, something suddenly happened.

Shawn suddenly reached down, pulling out the knife in his arm!
