Chapter: 200

Now, only he could save her, but the gangster demanded that he jump off the cliff, which was an impossible demand.

“will you jump or not? I'll count to three, and if you don't, I'll truly end her life.”

To the gangster’s surprise, Marcus continued to stand there with unwavering composure. “Three...”

Marcus sneered and began to approach him. “Release her and | will spare your life,” he said.

“| won't release her. Do you think | can walk away alive from here? If my mission fails, | have no reason to live.”

Millie found this gangster exceedingly stubborn, even more so than she had imagined. Her mind buzzed with confusion, unable

to devise a plan to save herself.

She bit her lower lip tightly, certain that her life would end anytime soon.

Marcus glanced at Millie, her nervous lip-biting evident. His gaze shifted to her trembling, slender legs.

His sharp gaze was akin to an eagle’s.

“Fine, release her. I'll take the leap.”

Millie thought that she must be hallucinating. Was he truly willing to jump off the cliff to save her?

The gangster’s excitement burst forth. “You will, eh? Then jump this instant!”

Suddenly, the gangster panicked. “Wait... You promised to jump off the cliff. Why are you approaching me? Stop. Don’t come

any closer!”

Noticing Marcus’ continued advance, the gangster hastily pulled Millie away.

Marcus’ unwavering determination unnerved the gangster, even with Millie held hostage.

“Release her first. | need to assess the terrain here. The most treacherous spot is over there. If | jump from there, my demise is

certain.” Marcus pointed to a location beside the gangster and Millie.

“No. | said you will jump first before | release her!”

Who would believe such words? Even Millie, consumed by fear, knew that if Marcus jumped first, she would meet an immediate

death.

“stay back. Just jump from where you're standing.”

Marcus paid no heed to the gangster’s warnings and continued to advance. The gangster grew increasingly nervous, swiftly

pulling Millie back.

Suddenly, the gangster stumbled over a stone, causing both the gangster and Millie to tumble to the ground. Marcus immediately

rushed forward and snatched Millie away.

The gangster quickly regained his footing, but it was too late. Millie had been rescued. Consumed by anger, the gangster

widened his eyes and attempted to stab them with the dagger.
