Captivation: Want Nothing But You

"Ahem! Ahem!"

The river was flowing rapidly.

As soon as the water rushed over, it inundated Shelia, making her choke easily Victor saw how Shelia’s face became paler by the moment.

His hands clenched into fists, and the blue veins on his neck became very visible.

He gritted his teeth and yelled, "Let her go!"

Unable to open her eyes because of the gushing water, Shelia had difficulty speaking.She actually wanted Victor to run away.

But the moment she opened her mouth, she was choked by water.

Soon enough, her eyes became redder.

Looking at the exasperated expression on Victor’s face, Norton scoffed at him.

He thought that Victor might be strong but he was useless in this kind of situation.

"You’re making me laugh, boy.Do you think that I’m a good man? Why the hell should I obey you?"

With a cunning smile, Norton approached the rope, squatted down, and blew the unsteady flame.

"But for the sake of you wanting to save her so much, I will give you a chance.There’s still some good in me, huh? What do you think?"

Victor could just glare at Norton.

He would do whatever it took to save Shelia.

Looking Shelia, who was in the middle of the river, Norton squinted his eyes and snapped his fingers.

Immediately after, two men behind him appeared and stood between the rope and Victor.

Norton slowly stood up and looked at Victor with a wry smile.

"Here’s what I’m thinking.These two are the weakest among my men.The one on my left has only killed two people, and the one on the right has killed five."

After a brief pause, Norton continued, "You want to save her, right? Knock them down!"

As soon as Norton finished speaking, the two men who had been holding Victor’s arms let go of him and took a few steps back.

While playing with the knife in his hand, Norton touched its tip with his thumb and warned, "But of course, you have to hurry up.Defeat these two before the rope breaks.Otherwise, you can say goodbye to your good friend.The moment she’s washed away, I’m afraid that you won’t even find her corpse."

Looking at the flickering flame, Victor didn’t care about anything else.

Time was of essence, so he quickly rushed up and fought against the two men.

Norton was a mercenary and the most popular leader the Roaring Tiger had.

Of course, even his weakest subordinates should be strong as well.

Moreover, Victor was currently badly injured.

But even in his peak state, he might not even be able to defeat one of the two weakest subordinates of Norton.
