Billionaire Defiant Wife

Normally, when the tire was hit, the car could still go for a bit. But the underpants seemed to get stuck with stones. No matter how hard Jackson stepped on the gas, the car wouldn't go.

Jackson tried a few times and punched the steering wheel out of fury.

The car lights were still on. But it couldn't shine a light on the way ahead.

The situation didn't look good. As the cars still zoned in on them, it wouldn't take long before they were surrounded.

Gabrielle said, "Didn't you say that you're more powerful than K's Clam though they're influential between the police and gang?" Why would K's Clam go after Jackson's car?

Jackson looked despicable, but he didn't answer.

He knew why. He broke the rules, and a few gangs worked together to fight against him.

Or K's Clam alone would not dare to go after Jackson even if he was in the Ancient Country.

"Erm..." Gabrielle said, "Should I..."

After all, Gabrielle was the real target. Jackson had nothing to do with. She put her hand on the door lock. Click! Instead of opening the door, it was locked.

Jackson asked, "Where are you going? We're in Wolf Mountain."

Right, Gabrielle almost forgot that.

Jackson suddenly leaned toward Gabrielle. It took place out of nowhere, and Gabrielle moved back, saying, "What are you doing?"

Jackson asked, "What do you think?" He was amused by the way Gabrielle reacted. He got relaxed like they weren't in imminent danger.

Gabrielle said, "Do you want to do it before we die?"

Jackson coughed and reached to the drawer in front of Gabrielle. He pulled it open and took out two guns. And he gave one of them to Gabrielle.

"You can shoot as many rounds as you like..."

Gabrielle realized she misunderstood and was too embarrassed to pick up the gun.

Jackson said, "Follow me, and I'll keep you safe." Seeing Gabrielle, Jackson was dumbfounded, knocked her head gently with the grip, and said, "Don't you trust me?"

Gabrielle said, 'What did you just say?"

Jackson answered, "Don't you trust me?"

Gabrielle said, "Before that."

Jackson said, "I'll keep you safe."

Gabrielle blinked her eyes. That was how heart beat when she was told that she would be protected. Damn, she seemed to love it.

No, no, no, she couldn't like Jackson, Gabrielle thought. He was her sugar daddy and was engaged. The scream Gabrielle made in her mind as loud as the howlings.

Jackson asked, "What? Are you touched?"

Gabrielle said, "Not really. I'm just a little bit guilty of not saving you last time." She was feeling guilty. If she didn't say it now, she would wonder if she had the opportunity. If both of them should die here, Gabrielle thought it would not be the worst thing. After all, Jackson was the jewel on the crown. She wouldn't hate it.

Jackson's look got more and more serious as the sounds of engines got closer. Soon, cars parked around them, and they were surrounded...

Jackson said, "Don't come out!" Then he opened the door.

"Hey..." Gabrielle called Jackson, and he turned around. Her look was worried, "Are you gonna be okay?"

Jackson said, "They're going after you."

Gabrielle was touched by what Jackson said deeply. And she felt guilty that she was worried that Jackson would go after her. It really surprised her knowing Jackson, the man who said he wouldn't marry her, chose to stand next to her.

Gabrielle cried, and her tears fell on her hand.

Gabrielle suddenly said, "I hate you."

Jackson always felt Gabrielle didn't have a heart. On the surface, she pleased you by doing kinds of stuff. But she always kept a distance. She was not feeling secure with Jackson.

However, it wasn't that Jackson couldn't give her security. His family couldn't.

Jackson reached out to wipe her tears with fingers patiently, saying, "Why?"

"I just do, "Gabrielle got rid of his hand and wiped her own tears. He wouldn't give her any hope, but he risked his life for her at a critical moment. So she hated him.

Jackson said, "I'll deal with them. Wait for me."

Gabrielle shook her head, saying, "Wait, I have something to ask you."

Jackson paused and waited.

Gabrielle asked, "Are you really gonna get engaged?"

Jackson looked at her with a deep meaning. After a while, he hummed.

"I see," Gabrielle stopped crying at the moment, and said, "Don't bother saving me. I hate owing you a favor."

Then Gabrielle pulled the door open and walked out.

The second Gabrielle was out. She felt chilly. It was cold at night in the mountains.

Gabrielle shook her head, saying, "Wait, I have something to ask you. Get back in the car."

Gabrielle said, "They're after me. I'll take responsibility for my actions." She admitted that she was afraid of death, but there was no reason to let others die for her.

Jackson didn't like how she said it. Jackson came out of the car and went in front of her fast, saying, "What are you doing?

The leading man was tall and big. His hair was short and spiky and had a scar at the corner underneath his left eye.

Gabrielle remembered the man as the killer taking the mission to kill Evan.

He looked scary, and Gabrielle was afraid to look at him.

The man with a scar clapped his hands, saying, "How touching to see a love bird saying goodbye."

He said, "Jackson, we respect you. You pushed O's Clam to a higher level in a short period of time at a very young age. You deserve all of our respect. But, it doesn't mean you get to ignore rules in our line of work. If you turn in that woman, we'll take that nothing happened between us.

Jackson answered, "What happened happened. I won't deny it."

The man said, "The allies of several gangs couldn't change your mind?"

Jackson answered, "No."

The man said, "Then don't blame us for what's gonna happen."

The men behind the leader pulled out guns. This was a warning. If they didn't get what they wanted, it could get worse.

Jackson wasn't frightened at all. But Gabrielle was. Except for shooting a film, she has never seen so many guns pointed at her.

That was right. They were not pointed at Jackson but at her.

Jackson grabbed her behind his back. Gabrielle was frightened. She thought about taking responsibility for this. But she regretted it.

Gabrielle held onto Jackson's sleeves and stood behind his back. And she revealed her head from above Jackson's shoulders and took a peek.

Then Gabrielle saw something more horrifying than being the point at by guns.
