Dumped My Cheating Ex. Now I'm Sleeping Next to a Billionaire CEO novel Chapter 1340

Hearing the commotion, Lorelei quickly turned her head. Seeing Emmy collapsed on the ground, she rushed over and grabbed her shoulders to pull her up. "Emmy! Can you hear me? Do not worry about the children! The maximum security robots are right there. Their combat capabilities are incredible, and their outer armor can even stop armor piercing rounds. The kids will be perfectly fine!"

But Emmy could not process a single word. Her eyes and her mind were entirely consumed by the image of that stray bullet flying dangerously close to her daughter. Unable to shove Lorelei away, she simply dragged her numb, lifeless legs across the rough ground, using her elbows to desperately crawl toward her children.

Suddenly, a low, ominous hum resonated from the top floor of the main building. Seconds later, a swarm of black drones erupted from a concealed hatch on the roof like angry hornets leaving their nest. They rapidly assumed a combat formation in midair, their infrared scopes locking onto the heat signatures outside the courtyard walls. The compact barrels mounted on their undersides ruthlessly unleashed a torrent of suppressing fire.

Watching the agile, heavily armed machines weave through the sky, Lorelei pointed upward in excitement. "Look! It is Infinity! The Infinity drones you developed! Aside from fire detection, James had the core programming modified. They are now the strongest security drones defending this estate! They are amazing... Emmy, can you hear me? Look at them!"

Yet Emmy remained completely deaf to the world around her. The gunfire and Lorelei's shouting were automatically filtered out of her consciousness. Fueled by a massive surge of adrenaline, genuine strength finally began returning to her paralyzed limbs. With a sudden, forceful swing of her arm, she shoved Lorelei away.

Under Lorelei's shocked gaze, Emmy planted her hands on the ground and pushed herself up. Swaying unsteadily, yet fueled by absolute resolve, she stood. Like a toddler taking her very first steps, she stumbled clumsily around the metal robots and threw herself onto the lawn, pulling the trembling Joey and sobbing Dolly tightly against her chest.

"Do not be afraid..." Her voice was still quivering, as dry and rough as sandpaper, yet it carried a fierce determination to protect them even if it cost her life. "Mommy is here. Mommy is right here."
