Chapter 1873 Assassination Attempt

Sheila nodded. “The flower field sure is a good place. It can help me realize my dreams without having me dreaming.”

“Really? That’s amazing.” Levant was curious about her dream.

Sheila nodded and gifted the fresh flowers she plucked to Zayden and Joy.

Davin had a long face and ignored Levant’s curious gaze. He didn’t want to participate in the conversation, so he changed the topic, asking about Nicole and Evan.

“Are Evan and Nicole back yet?”

“Nope, but they should be back soon.”

Half an hour later, they saw Evan, Nicole, Jeremy, Jensen, and Damien heading their way.

Davin and Levant glanced at Evan with a curious gaze and whispered, “Do you think Evan has recovered? Has he remembered Nicole is his wife?”

Levant spotted the intertwined hands between Evan and Nicole with a smile.

Is there even a need to ask at that sight?

As they walked over, Davin asked puzzledly, “How is it, Evan? Do you remember yet?”

Evan didn’t answer his question and turned to Shermaine. “Have Jeremy and Jensen send you back.”

After a brief pause, Shermaine nodded. “All right. Thank you.”

“Ms. Shermaine, this way.”

The three spun around and headed up the mountain.

Davin stared at her back with confusion. “Evan, are you planning to let her leave just like that? She’s not clinging onto you anymore?”

Nicole stepped up and explained, “She was hypnotized. Evan is just a stranger to her.”

“Stranger?”

“Yeah.”

Her answer had everyone surprised.

Davin thought about it briefly. “That means Evan has recovered, and Shermaine got a taste of her own medicine?”

“Not really. She was relieved more than anything. She will continue her role as the Guardian of Daemonic Mount as if she had never met Evan. This is the best ending for her, I suppose.”

However, life didn’t go as planned. Accidents would always happen at times when one wanted to avoid them the most.

When everyone was about to return to the cabin, they heard Jeremy’s, Jensen’s, and Shermaine’s calls. They looked over their shoulder to see the trio dashing toward them.

“What’s wrong? Why are they coming back again?”

“Yeah. What are they screaming about?”

Suddenly, a group of men in black attacked them.

There were so many assassins that the situation was unfavorable to them. Evan immediately ordered everyone to face the assassins with caution. The assassins attacked again once the words were out of his mouth.

A violent battle happened in such an unexpected situation. Both sides were engaged in the fight. A dagger was directed at Evan when he was distracted to protect Nicole.

“Careful!”

At the crucial moment, Shermaine leaped in front of Evan and took the dagger with her body. The dagger stabbed right into her chest at her heart.

“Shermaine!”

Everything happened so quickly that no one could expect it.

Shermaine lay in Evan’s arms with blood on the corner of her lips. A small smile tugged the corners of her lips as she grunted, “A-Actually, I wasn’t hypnotized… I-I remember you… I-I guess this is fine too… You’ll remember m-me forever.”

Her eyelids fell to a close once she finished.

“Shermaine!”

Her death filled Evan with surprise and guilt. No matter how much he yelled at her to wake up, her eyes remained shut.

The Hidden Masters, Faye, and Draven fought back against their opponents with all they got. Levant and Davin protected Sheila, Nicole, and the two children as they fought. After half an hour of brutal battle, the remaining enemy finally retreated.

Draven, Jeremy, and Damien were hurt. The bodies of the dead lying in pools of blood were a horrifying scene.

“Mr. Evan, there’s a survivor!” Darius called.
