Chapter 82
Herman reacted swiftly, firing off another round. This time, the bullet found its mark, landing straight in Fidelia’s heart.
After Fidelia fell to the ground, Herman quickly moved to the window to get a glimpse of what’s going on inside the house.
Fidelia’s body lay strewn on the ground, with Balch right next to her, silently taking in the scene. Underneath him was a chaotic mess of blood.

Herman leaned over to her, concern filling his voice. “Where are you hurt? Can you feel anything?”
“It hurts…” Seraphina managed to wheeze out before continuing, “Why does it hurt so much even with a bulletproof vest on…”

There was no blood, which meant the bullet didn’t penetrate the vest.
Herman watched in surprise, throwing Seraphina a perplexed look.
This lady was full of surprises. Who would’ve thought she was wearing a bulletproof vest?
Leandro silently looked at the bullet in his hand for a moment before finally shifting his gaze to Seraphina.
