My Husband Is a Gary Stu

Just when Sally wanted to retrieve her phone, it slipped down into the compartment. Hence, she had no choice but to get Cooper to end the call on her behalf as she floored the accelerator.

No sooner had Cooper picked up the phone than the car's sudden inertia pressed his body against his seat.

“Watch out for the city's speed limits—” The last thing Cooper wanted was for her to speed when driving his car. If his license ended up being suspended, he would have to rely on Bertilla to give him a ride all the time.

Cooper had barely spoken when someone crashed into the back of their Bentley.

The impact was so huge that their car was almost sent flying.

Gripping the grab handle immediately, Cooper could see two black cars following them closely from the rearview mirror. In fact, one of them sped up to their right and drove neck to neck with them.

As a gap opened in the window, the black barrel of a gun emerged from it, aiming at Cooper.

With a sharp turn of the steering wheel, Sally rammed their car into their pursuer's.

The massive jolt that resulted prevented the man in the car from getting his shot. Seizing the window of opportunity, Sally accelerated and sped off.

In the interest of public safety, she swung the car around at a junction before driving toward a skyscraper that was still under construction. Naturally, the two black cars were in hot pursuit.

Every time their pursuers came close, Sally would use her exceptional driving skills to leave them in the dust.

As it was getting dark, the construction crews had already gone home.

Once their car screeched to a halt in front of the building. Sally swung the car door open and led Cooper inside where they ascended the building by climbing the concrete stairwell.

When Sally heard the sound of their pursuers' cars coming to a stop, she waved at Cooper for him to continue going up.

Speculating that there were five to six men in the two cars, Cooper hesitated out of concern that they were too much for her to handle.

Sally ordered impatiently, “Go now. I'll be able to handle them myself. If you stay, you being a live target will just be a distraction for me.”

For the very first time, Cooper felt useless without a gun in his hand. Hence, he hurried upstairs without a second thought.

Meanwhile, Sally hid in one of the corners and gradually slowed down her breathing.

Fortunately, darkness had already fallen, limiting the visibility outside. Given that it was even darker inside the skyscraper, their pursuers would be further impeded.

When she heard the approaching footsteps, Sally—hiding in the darkness—grabbed the man's neck with her fingers the moment she saw the barrel of a gun peek out. After cracking his neck with a twist of her hand, she seized his gun and shot his comrade, who was ascending the stairs.

As it was getting dark, the construction crews had already gone home.

Her movements were so swift in the dorkness thot she monoged to deol with them in three seconds.

When the men upstoirs reolized their componions hod been killed, they begon sproying bullets in Solly's direction. Tossing her victim's body owoy, Solly took cover behind o corner.

Even though there wos only one stoircose going up, their pursuers grew wory of oscending it ofter losing two men.

At the some time, Solly checked the remoining bullets in the mogozine before inserting it bock into the gun. Closing her eyes to listen intently, she tried to determine the number of enemies by their footsteps.

Both sides consequently fell into o stolemote.

After more thon ten minutes, their pursuers were roring to go up the stoirs ogoin.

Nevertheless, Solly didn't rush out hostily. It wosn't until she wos sure oll of them were coming up the stoirwell ond would be in her sights did she step out decisively. Leveroging her obility to see well in the dork, she fired o shot ot every single one of them, killing everyone on the spot.

Once she wos sure there wos no one else, she lowered her guord ond yelled upstoirs, “Come down.”
