Chapter 1187 The Lowe Family’s Motto
After that, Sage charged into the building like a gust of wind with guns in his hands.
He, too, was anxious.
He actually had a crush on Mackenzie, but because she was Emmanuel’s wife, he had been suppressing his emotions. No
matter what, he had to protect her for Emmanuel.
Meanwhile, a violent explosion echoed from the research laboratory on the fifth floor.
Boom!
Flames soared, and thick smoke billowed out of the doors and windows. The entire building trembled.
“D*mn it!” Mackenzie gasped in shock after steadying herself. They must be trying to blast through the protective glass and
forcibly take the Heart of the Sun. I have to hurry! I have to get there before they do!
Just then, on the other side of the corridor, there was another commotion, followed by gunfire. Mackenzie knew that Ryder must
have rushed out to divert the attention of the two Holy Fire organization members.
She quickly ran toward the third-floor corridor, shocked by what she saw. Ryder had been shot in the arm, blood
covering him, and he was in excruciating pain. However, this honest man didn’t utter a sound.
“Die!”
Two Holy Fire thugs raised their guns, intending to give Ryder a quick death. Their eyes were cold, indifferent to who he was.
Their attitude was similar to that of the thugs in Yeternia. Ruthless murderers.
Swish!
Acting before they could shoot, Mackenzie, who had taken off her shoes, silently approached them from behind and viciously
smashed her heels on the back of their heads.
“Ah!” Two simultaneous cries of agony. The heels had embedded into the back of their heads.
Sheldon, who arrived later, was stunned. Like husband, like wife! Emmanuel’s wife is also no ordinary woman!
“It’s you two who should die!” Taking advantage of the moment the two men turned around, Mackenzie, skilled in Taekwondo,
delivered a powerful kick to their vital points.
The two men collapsed to the ground. However, Mackenzie was not Emmanuel; even with a sneak attack, she couldn’t deliver a
lethal blow. One of the men lying on the ground slowly raised his gun, aiming it at her.
Mackenzie’s eyes widened, realizing the danger.
The next moment, the opponent fired.
Bangl

“It’s you two who should die!” Taking advantage of the moment the two men turned around, Mackenzie, skilled in Taekwondo,
delivered a powerful kick to their vital points.
The two men collapsed to the ground. However, Mackenzie was not Emmanuel; even with a sneak attack, she couldn’t deliver a

Mackenzie’s eyes widened, realizing the danger.
The next moment, the opponent fired.
Bang!
At the same time, a burly figure stood in front of her, and a spray of blood blossomed like flowers in front of her.
“Ryder!” Mackenzie’s heart raced.
Fortunately, she wasn’t a woman who went blank in times of trouble. It was now or never. Seizing the opportunity,
she kicked the gun out of the man’s hand.
“This... This!” Sheldon, seeing the gun drop in front of him and another man making a move, acted without thinking. He quickly
picked up the fallen gun and rushed forward, firing several shots at the two men on the ground.
“Ah! Ah!” He descended into madness, shooting and screaming simultaneously, his mind going blank. He had never killed
anyone, even if the person in front of him was a ruthless thug.
“Enough, calm down!” Mackenzie’s command came through, and Sheldon finally stopped. Turning around, he realized that
Ryder was lying in a pool of blood.
Mackenzie crouched before him, nervously calling out, “Ryder, pull yourself together! How are you?”
Ryder struggled to breathe. Due to the pain, large beads of sweat formed on his forehead. However, this honest man didn’t utter
a sound, afraid that he would attract enemies and trouble for Mackenzie.
Now, hearing Mackenzie ask him, he forced a grin and said, “I... I’m fine, Ms. Quillen. You... No need to worry about
me!”
He knew Mackenzie had important things to do, and he didn’t want to waste her time on a small fry like him.
“How can you be such an idiot?! It was so dangerous just now. Why would you do that?” Mackenzie sighed and pressed on his
wound, trying to stop the bleeding.
“Hehe... The Lowe family... has a family motto: ‘The smallest... act of kindness is worth more than the grandest intention.’ Ms.
Quillen, Tommy and !... are in debt to you forever... I would give my life for you...”
“Enough, don’t say anything. Conserve your strength!” Mackenzie was deeply moved, her eyes becoming watery. She had
always thought Ryder had no merits besides being honest. He was ugly, clumsy, and even clueless about choosing a wife.
