I Married An Immortal (The Alchemists)

Chapter 127 - The Shocking Aftermath

"Famke, what are you doing here?" Finland asked quickly. She immediately pulled Jean, who was standing weakly by the door, to stand behind her.

"Caspar sent me to kill him," Famke answered in a flat voice. Her beautiful face looked very cold and without expression.

"No way!!!" Finland screamed and tried to throw her bag at Famke. Famke merely dodged to the side lightly and in a quick second, she was standing inches away in front of Finland.

Frantically, Finland tried to call Caspar, but Famke quickly snatched her phone away from her hands.

"Get out of the way... I'm only assigned to kill Jean." Famke raised her hand threateningly.

Finland knew that Famke didn't like her from the first time they met; the girl almost never talked to her, and now she felt that Famke was happy to kill Jean in front of her. She shuddered when she saw the girl's eyes shine dangerously.

"Over my dead body..." Finland hissed in a trembling voice.

Famke grinned and with one swift swing of her hand, Finland was slammed to the side. Now, Famke stood in front of Jean, who tried to defend himself in vain. His body was very weak after returning from the hospital.

"Don't hurt Finland!" Jean exclaimed, attacking Famke. His punch hit the air because Famke moved so quickly. She disappeared from where she stood and suddenly appeared behind Jean. She hit his shoulder with a skilled jab. Jean fell to the floor. He tried to get up, but Famke's placed her boots on him mercilessly.

"You love the wrong woman," she said in a cold voice and pulled out a gun from under her leather jacket.

"Nooooo!! Don't shoot Jean...!! I won't ever forgive you...!!" Finland screamed at the top of her lungs.

She got up and tried to throw her body over Jean to protect him just as Famke aimed her gun at him. Jean, who instinctively felt that Finland moved in to protect him, immediately turned around to prevent Finland's body from getting close to him.

Two shots were heard, and both bodies slammed to the floor.

Suddenly, the door opened from the outside and Caspar entered with a pale face, gasping for breath. He rushed over to Finland and shouted in anger at Famke.

"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO MY WIFE??!!"

He held Finland's limp body and examined the blood that started to stain her clothes. When he could not find a single wound on Finland, he let out a sigh of relief.

"Je... Jean... How's Jean?" Finland asked weakly as she tried to open her eyes. She hysterically looked at Caspar, then screamed as her gaze wiped on Jean's body lying beside her. "Noooo...!!! Why do you have the heart to kill Jean?!! Why did you do this to my only friend!!??? Why don't you care about my feelings...??"

Finland stood up and rushed to Jean to examine his wounds. Jean was shot twice in his left chest and there was a lot of blood flowing out. Finland wailed miserably and shook Jean's body...

"Finland... it was not me..." Caspar said softly, shaking his head. "I will never hurt you..."

"You sent this killer to finish off Jean! How could you do this to me... I will never forgive you..." Finland looked at Caspar with blazing eyes. "I hate people who abuse their power the most... I thought you were different, but it turns out that you're just the same as all those other rich and powerful people. You are selfish and oppressive to others, just so you can get what you want... I hate people like you the most!!!"

Caspar tried to come closer to Finland, but she shook her head with hatred. Desperate, he finally turned his gaze to Famke.

"Famke... who told you to kill Jean?" he asked in an angry voice.
