Michael, who had been given a fright, sweated profusely. Sweat trickled down his face as he explained, “Celie, this is your son. He is just here to see you. Don’t worry; we won’t do anything reckless.”

Seeing that Carmen was sobbing, Michael immediately coaxed her to prevent her from agitating Celine. “Carmen, we’ve started filming, so you have to be a good girl. You can’t cry now. I’m going to start saying my lines now.”

As a hardworking and diligent actor, Carmen tried her best to hold back her sobs, but tears kept streaming down her cheeks out of fear when she was in Celine’s arm.

The black gun was aimed at her messy little head, and one of the small flowers pinned on her hair had fallen off. Michael’s eyes widened, for fear that the gun would go off.

At that moment, Nathan suddenly took two steps forward. “Take me instead.”

Celine roared as she raised her hand. Bang! She shot at the floor inches away in front of Nathan’s feet, causing Carmen to tremble in fear, but she still forced herself to suppress her cries.

The gunshot alarmed the people downstairs. Cooper’s flustered voice was heard from the walkie-talkie brought by Justin. “What happened?”

Justin replied, “Nothing’s wrong. Don’t make any move. We can resolve this.”

Nathan looked at the bullet hole next to his feet in a daze, his expression still numb. Michael quickly pulled him back and said to Celine, “Stay calm! Stay calm! He’s just a child who doesn’t know what he’s doing! I’ll take him away now!”

He hurriedly dragged Nathan to the staircase and dashed down the stairs.

 

Wiping the sweat on his face, Micheal realized that his legs were trembling, as if every step he took landed on cotton.

Nathan, who was following behind him, suddenly asked, “Will you guys kill her?”

 

Michael’s footsteps came to a sudden halt. A second later, he quickened his pace down the stairs without replying.

On the tenth floor, Justin looked at Celine from afar, the tears in his eyes unconcealable. Why does fate refuse to leave us alone? Why do we have to be treated so cruelly?
