NOVPUBChapter 1384: 648 Terrifying (Must Watch Conversation)_6 Chapter 1384: 648 Terrifying (Must Watch Conversation)_6 Perhaps it was the cold that made Aubree Groove’s brain somewhat uncontrollable, and she made a joke she would never normally make.
Nicholas Drake was taken aback, his chest shaking violently with unrestrained laughter.
After returning, Aubree Groove drank a large bowl of ginger soup, then took a hot bath and changed her clothes.
Without much rest, she plunged into her research.
At dawn, Aubree Groove opened her room door and saw Nicholas Drake sitting on the ground outside the door.
Hearing the noise, he immediately opened his eyes.
Nicholas Drake hurriedly got up from the ground, his eyes full of expectation: “How is it?”
Aubree Groove said, “I’ve already given Malone the first dose, let’s see how it works.”
Malone was the little girl’s younger brother.
...
Aubree Groove had given them names – the sister was Summer Anderson, and the brother was Malone, implying peace and joy.
Observing Malone for a whole day, his body temperature returned to normal, and the wound on his face did not continue to fester, proving that the medicine was effective.
Aubree Groove had those infected take the medicine she had sent.
In less than three days, the results were almost astonishing.
After resolving everyone’s illness, Aubree Groove began to locate the source of the radiation.
She went to find Leandro Alvarez: “Do you have a map of this island?”
Leandro Alvarez had personally witnessed how Aubree Groove saved these people these days and was completely in awe of her.
His attitude towards her was even more respectful.
“There isn’t one.
This island is quite big.
What we see is just the tip of the iceberg.
Master McKay sent some people to investigate a long time ago, but those pirates were quite cunning.
Almost all the people Master McKay sent were killed”.
Because of its particular geographical location, this island was not governed by any country.
Only passing merchant ships would stop here and rest, but after pirates occupied it, merchant ships dared not come.
Then one of Leandro’s men ran in from outside, “Mistress, it’s bad.
The pirates have charged in.”
Aubree Groove raised an eyebrow, a gentle smile appearing at the corner of her lips: “They’re finally here.”
Looking at the young woman’s smile, Leandro shivered.
Aubree Groove walked out of the cabin.
On the deck facing her, a thin monkey-like man stood there with a dozen tall and burly men behind him.
Aubree Groove’s guards completely surrounded her, ready for defense.
This was the first time Victor had a clear look at this young woman.
His eyes flashed with surprise.
That old Pindo Rinto could give birth to such a beautiful daughter.
Victor cleared his throat, “Ms.
Rinto, I hear you have medicine that can cure the disease here?”
His Chinese was much more fluent, though it still contained a unique foreign accent.
Victor despised her deep down, but politeness precedes force.
This was always right.
The young lady smiled, her beauty truly unparalleled, causing his men’s grip on their guns to tremble.
“Do you want it?” She asked.
“Of course.” Victor coughed: “Ms.
Rinto, if you could give us the medicine, I would be willing to pay handsomely.”
The young woman shrugged her shoulders, then smirked: “Do I look like I need money?”
Indeed, Pindo Rinto’s daughter did not lack money.
Victor frowned, but when faced with a great beauty, he always had more patience: “Then what do you want?”
“I’m told you Burnettes highly value loyalty.
If you want to save the lives of your men, you can, but at the cost of your own.
I will save everyone.”
With a cold laugh, Victor said, “Little miss, you’re too naive.
This is a man’s battlefield.
You’d be better off back home doing embroidery.”
He raised his gun and pointed it at Aubree Groove’s head: “I’ll ask one last time, will you give us the medicine or not?”
Both teams were at a standoff, guns aiming at each other.
Amidst the tenseness, the young woman remained calm.
She walked out of her guard’s circle and walked up to Victor, who thought little of her as she seemed incapable of harm.
However, in the next instant, the girl disarmed him.
Before he could react, the muzzle of the cold gun was pressing against his forehead.
Such speed.
This ridiculous thought was the first thing that crossed Victor’s mind.
“I came to search for the missing Rinto’s cargo ship, and of course, I won’t return empty-handed.
Why don’t you tell me, where is my Rinto’s lost cargo ship?
Hmm?
Forget about the cargo, I need those crew members, alive or dead.”
The young lady’s tone changed from gentle to fierce, even Leandro was frightened by her aura.
Victor’s men were shocked by this turn of events.
After coming to their senses, they quickly aimed all their guns at Aubree Groove.
Aubree Groove did not flinch.
She spoke again, “I’m only giving you one chance, three…”
The trigger slowly tightened.
Victor had no doubt that she would shoot him in the head.
This intense pressure made him unable to think rationally, and he blurted out subconsciously: “I…I’ll tell you.
The hijacking of the cargo ship was not my idea, I was just the one doing the work.
It was the idea of our Second Master.
He has a grudge against Agave Rinto, deliberately hijacked your Rinto’s cargo ship.
It has nothing to do with me.”
“It seems I should meet your Second Master.
Let’s go, lead the way.”
As Victor turned around, he signaled his men with his eyes.
A bullet flew towards Aubree Groove, but can a man’s speed be faster than a bullet?
Victor didn’t believe it, not until his own arm got shot…
The girl’s soft and smiling voice fell to his ears, “You really can’t be trusted, huh.
Do you want to try it again?”
Cold sweat was running down Victor’s forehead, and it was uncertain whether it was out of pain or fear.
Only then did he recall what his underling had said earlier, and regret was late.
This woman was terrifyingly powerful.
Wiping the cold sweat off his forehead, Leandro Alvarez took a deep breath and stared at the slender figure in front of him.
Even when surrounded by wolves, she remained composed.
Indeed, the mistress did not need his protection.
Kennedy rushed out of his room when he heard the news.
He was stunned at the sight before him.
Victor was being held at gunpoint by a little girl.
If Kennedy hadn’t seen this with his own eyes, he would have thought the other person was insane.
“Are you the Second Master?” The way the young girl looked at him made him very uncomfortable.
He snorted coldly: “Let him go, or I will make you wish you were dead.”
Agave Rinto had killed so many of his brothers.
How could he have a good face towards the Rintos?
He wished he could feast on their flesh and drink their blood.
“He just said the same thing to me, and you saw the result.” The young lady smiled and pointed at Victor’s head: “Tell your Second Master here.”
Victor spoke up: “Second Master, she…She came for the Rinto’s missing cargo ship.”
Victor hated this deep down.
That fool Kennedy robbed the Rinto’s cargo ship without telling him.
When Victor found out, it was too late.
He didn’t despise the Rintos, instead at this juncture, they couldn’t afford to draw attention from other forces.
But trouble came nonetheless.
Kennedy, this foolish second in command, had screwed him up.
