It was far from someone's presumption, the girl lying down on the floor as silently as her body rotted to the ground, would cause a problem.
Especially the odd guy and his subordinates. According to their estimate, they had already taken her down. She wouldn't cause any trouble for them.
However, as it stated. 'One's carelessness, one's chance.'
Their assuredness prevented an advantage to Zoe. She raised her body like a whirlwind then struck the odd guy's feet with her leg.
The odd guy was standing in front of Zoe. He was pointing the gun at the lady before. He was too focused, his eyes were locked on his target. Thus he didn't pay attention to his surroundings.
As she hit his legs he fell down on the ground.
Zoe didn't spare any chance for the other party to understand the situation. She kicked his body as soon as he descended.
His body started sliding away, it went in the same direction where the lady was standing. When the lady found garbage coming near, she shifted herself and cleared the path. Hence without any obstacles his body slammed to the wall.
Zoe didn't even a single glance after kicking him. She immediately turned and ran to the otherside.
She spread her arms wide open and caught the falling thing. Actually, it was the boy who was hanging before.
Heretofore, Zoe had listened to the clutter of the tenth floor. Since the sobbing of the woman was too annoying, she wasn't able to ignore it.
Hence there she heard that guy made a bet with the lady. It was, if she wanted to save her child then go and catch him. After that he started cutting rope. He assured her that he was cutting the rope slowly, so if she ran now she would reach there before he crashed on the ground.
Factly, It was totally impossible for the lady to make it on time. Therefore he had put the condition before her that she couldn't take the elevator.
When Zoe discerned it, she frowned. Anyway, now she was sighing with relief as saw the little boy in her arms. Luckily she managed to seize him.
However, her ease didn't last long. She saw the little boy distorting his face. And the next moment he started to cry loudly.
It seems she did everything in less than a second. Now when that one second had passed everyone had come to senses.
Zoe watched the odd guy coughing the blood. She blinked several times. Her own actions surprised her. She almost crushed him in one kick.
Dumbfounded, she tightened her grip.
First she was too shell-shocked to think anything, second the boy was crying in full volume right next to her ear. It was hard to evaluate the situation.
Annoyed, she yelled at him."Shut up."
After scolding him, she overheard him quietly weeping. 'Seriously childrens are too much to handle.'
All of sudden…
Odd guy ordered while coughing. "Kill them."
It didn't take too much time and his subordinates acted as per his command, they started shooting.
Zoe's eyes widened. She quickly turned back then bent. She hid that boy in her embrace and sat where she was standing.
It had been some minutes since they were fairing but not a single bullet touched.
She looked back and perceived a blue color shell.
It was transparent, she could see the bullets which were flying to her but fell down as they knocked on the blue shell.
It wasn't only shielding her, the same shell was cast around the lady with whom she exchanged the clothes.
Soon two figures appeared near the lady. Zoe wasn't acquainted with the first one but she quickly discerned who was second.
In white suit she saw that second figure coming near to her.
"B-Big Boss!!!!!!!!!!" Zoe screamed.
Zoe's heartbeat raised. She can't believe in her own eyes. 'It's Noah, right? It wasn't an illusion. Right? My mind has not gone mad because of terror. Right? I'm not dreaming Right?' Bombing of questions began as she saw him.
After getting him there, she couldn't elucidate her emotions. To tell the truth, It was a mixed feeling of sour and sugar, which she was having.
Even though she was standing there in a dilemma, her eyes were clearly showing the picture of heart.
They were shining yet a little watery. They were similar to the lost child who has seen his parents.
Well it wasn't only Zoe, who's eyes were shining. The little boy who was in her arms, his eyes also glittered.
He saw his mother and started revolting. She bent a little then released him. Like a shot he ran towards his mother and hugged her.
As for Zoe, her eyes didn't leave the sight of Noah. She scrutinized him getting in through the blue shell.
She forgot to take a breath as he finally reached close to her.
"Big Boss??" She mumbled.
"Hmm" Noah slowly responded while approaching her.
"Big boss? It's really you" she asked again.
Although he was standing right in front of her, She still had doubts that he was an eyewash. How come it was him? Or was it really him?
To tell the truth, she was not expecting anything good. She had a shower of problems today. One by one, unexpectedly they came to her. So it was hard for her to accept.
Noah looked at her deeply then in his seductive voice he replied. "It's me."
Zoe smiled weakly. She was about to say something but her whole body jolted as he put his hand waist.
He pulled her close to him then carefully wiped the black blood by his other hand's sleeve.
" It must be hurting."
Finding the blood in her face, his heart ached. Without even giving second thought to her peculiar vital fluid, he cleaned her face.
His white sleeve turned black as. However, now he could analyse her injury. It looked like the wound on her face had healed. It didn't leave any trace.
On the other, Zoe's eyes filled with water as she received his warmth. In his presence she was feeling safe.
She simply nodded. Since she couldn't even utter a single word because of her overwhelming heartstrings.
She really wanted to cry right now but she couldn't. She successfully suppressed the argument of crying. They were not in a position where she could act as she pleased.
They were still in danger.
