A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO novel Chapter 382

Chapter 382 

Claudette knew that she had won the first step. Disregarding Emmanuel, she 

insisted on standing up. 

She stumbled forward, walking alone step by step toward a higher place. 

Her figure was thin, and her shadow cast by the pale moonlight was like a 

flickering candle flame. It made Emmanuel’s heart ache. 

“Didn’t expect this, did you? It’s just me here. There’s no Mackenzie and no 

Emmanuel. They have already left!” 

Claudette smirked triumphantly. “I covered their escape. I’m willing to do 

anything for him. There’s no one here, so if you have the guts, kill me! Prove 

that you’re a failure!” 

She guessed right again! 

After her words, the area above the hillside soon lit up with spotlights. 

Under the lights, Magnus appeared expressionless in front of Claudette’s 

eyes. 

Behind him was a man wearing a black leather jacket with a strong chest. He 

had a camouflage shirt on, and he was also wearing a pair of peculiar 

glasses with a hint of wickedness at the corners of his mouth! 

His name was Casper. He was once the number one explosives expert in the 

Northern Region, and also extremely skilled in sniping. In fact, he was a rare 

genius! 

“Where is Emmanuel hiding?” 

Magnus didn’t believe Claudette’s words at all. His gaze was still searching in 

the dark. 

Since he had revealed himself, he must kill his love rival! 

He was the person who understood Claudette the most and also the person 

Claudette understood the most. His proud ego couldn’t accept another 

failure! 

“I already told you; he’s gone!”

Claudette intentionally curved her lips in contempt. “Magnus, you are a 

failure. You are far inferior to Emmanuel! Unless you kill me now, everyone will 

eventually know that you lost to Emmanuel. You failed miserably on both the 

battlefield and in love! You hired a martial arts master to challenge him 

openly, as well as a professional sniper to ambush him in the dark, but you 

couldn’t even hurt him in the slightest. You’re a complete loser!” 

Her words were like sharp knives, piercing Magnus‘ heart. 

Claudette aimed to disturb Magnus‘ state of mind, distract his attention, and 

create an opportunity for Emmanuel to escape. 

“No, he didn’t leave!” 

Magnus‘ face turned dark, but he quickly recovered and confidently said, 

“Claudette, have you forgotten that I know you better than anyone? If 

Emmanuel had really left, you wouldn’t be standing here talking to me alone.” 

Claudette’s smile gradually disappeared, and she sighed helplessly. Although 

she didn’t want to admit it, this man in front of her indeed understood her 

very well! 

“Emmanuel, come out! Otherwise, I will kill her!” 

Magnus even personally picked up a sniper rifle and aimed it at Claudette. 

“Mr. Magnus-” 

The bodyguards behind him were shocked. 

He had gone mad! 

www 

Indeed, only a madman could come up with such a plan. He was threatening 

his rival by pointing a gun at the woman he loved! 

Although Casper considered himself a madman who had severed all ties 

with his family, he felt inferior to Magnus‘ actions. At the very least, he would 

never harm the person he loved! 

Claudette stared blankly for a moment before laughing. 

Her laughter was filled with contempt and fearlessness. 

“You are truly an idiot! I don’t believe you will really kill me. Weren’t you the 

one who claimed to protect me for a lifetime? Is this how you do that?” 

Yesterday, he was guarding her like a stalwart on the pedestrian street, but 

today, he was willing to kill her to threaten someone else. The contrast was 

truly unbelievable! 

Click. 

Magnus didn’t respond to Claudette’s words. He silently loaded the bullets. 

The atmosphere suddenly became tense. 

The air was heavy and suffocating. 

Magnus‘ eyes turned bloodshot and filled with killing intent. 

The surroundings remained silent. 

Bang! 

A gunshot shattered the silence of the night. 

Claudette trembled slightly in fear. She didn’t expect Magnus to actually 

shoot at her, even though he didn’t hit her! 

Magnus was skilled in marksmanship. At such a close range, he intentionally 

missed. 

Claudette knew she was right. The more she taunted him and the more she 

provoked him, the more he couldn’t bear to let her die!
