The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 1322

He followed Nelson’s gaze, looking up to the high ground behind him.

Almost simultaneously, something intermingled with the biting wind abruptly hurled itself toward him.

Before he had fully turned his head, the corner of his eye caught a glimpse of a dazzling light.

In the next moment, something pierced into his shoulder.

“Satan!” Violet exclaimed upon witnessing the scene and quickly rushed over.

The rest of the Cox family were also greatly shocked.

At that moment, Avery’s body went limp, and the dagger slipped from his hand. He straightened up, staggered back a couple of steps, and uncontrollably fell backward.

Violet moved swiftly, rushing to his side and steadying him with a firm grip.

“Satan, are you all right?” A rare look of panic appeared on her face. She reached out to touch his shoulder blade from behind, instantly staining her hand with blood.

“You’re hurt!” she exclaimed, noticing that Avery’s complexion had visibly darkened before turning pale.

It all seemed to occur in a blink for Avery. The instant he felt a piercing sensation, his body succumbed to numbness, swiftly followed by a sudden drain of vitality.

He knew this feeling all too well. It was a stealth weapon, a poisoned one at that.

At that moment, he tightly gripped Violet’s wrist, bracing himself to keep from falling. Clenching his teeth, he warned her, “There’s a stealth weapon… Get out of here quickly!”

In this house, there were others lurking, just waiting to deliver a fatal blow.

Realizing this, he yelled with all his might, “Move! Retreat!”

No sooner had the words been spoken than two darts flew from above, and two more people fell.

Nelson rose from the couch, lightly touching the bloodstain on his neck. With a cold/smile, he said, “You want to leave? In your dreams! Avery, you have your trump card, and I have mine too!”

As he was speaking, several people fell one after another.

Violet looked at the scene, gritted her teeth, and without any hesitation, she draped Avery’s arm over her shoulder,
