My Waste Husband

Chapter 1274

"Let her go!" the short-lady woman rushed over quickly and pulled Henry off the blonde lady, then took off her jacket and covered the blonde lady with it.

The man rushed over and punched Henry in the face.

This man was strong. In Henry's current physical condition, he was unable to effectively dodge the punch and was hit directly in the face.

Henry stumbled back a few steps.

"I'll kill you!" the man roared.

"Stop!" the short-haired lady shouted, stopping the man. She had also noticed that something was wrong with the blonde lady.

Henry wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth. "It's her addiction. I can't do anything but hold her like I did just now. It's great that you've returned. I'll leave her to you. She will probably faint later. I need to take a break. Her wound has reopened and needs to be stitched again."

After Henry said that, he walked over to a side, picked up a bottle of water and gulped it down. The whole incident earlier had made him thirsty.

The short-haired lady knew that she had wronged Henry, so an apologetic look was displayed on her face.

As for the man, he retracted his fist and did not say a word, nor did he take another look at Henry.

Just as Henry had said, the blonde lady soon turned unconscious.

"I'll get the first aid kit," the short-haired lady said before running out of the safe room.

After the short-haired woman left, the man who looked to be in his thirties glared at Henry and warned, "Behave yourself. I know why you are being wanted. If it wasn't for Li who told me that you had helped them, I would have killed you!"

Henry ignored him. As a man, he could understand the man's thoughts very well. All men had a strong sense of possession. This blonde lady was a beauty and also their companion. Although they may not have anything special going on between them, but he would still be upset to see the blonde lady's body exposed before Henry. After all, her body was a wondrous sight he had never gotten to witness.

Soon enough, the short-haired lady returned. This time, three men came with her. They all seemed to be approximately twenty-five to thirty years old. Calluses could be seen around their purlicues, they were all experts with guns.

One of them saw Henry and sneered. "This is that piece of sh*t! He wants to cooperate with us? And we help him leave this place? Bah!"

"Enough, let's not start arguing now, there might have been some misunderstanding." The short- haired lady tried to calm them down. Not only had Henry saved the blonde- haired lady before, but now they had to rely on Henry to re- stitch her wound.

Henry noticed that among the three that had just arrived, one of them was holding a wanted poster, printed on it was a portrait of him. Henry squinted and read the writing on the poster. It stated that he had sexually assaulted many women and killed their entire families afterwards, describing him as a complete monster.

Henry smiled bitterly. It was usually the people of this kind who were the easiest to arouse and lead to public wrath. Seeing that the Recluse Association had described him in such a way, no civilian would be willing to help him.

Henry shook his head. He took the medical kit from the short-haired lady and proceeded to stitch up the blonde lady's wound. The rest of the men who had arrived did not trust him, some even came over to watch over him when he dealt with the lady's wound.

Henry did not bother to explain anything to them. After leaving this place, they would be completely different people in two completely different worlds, and their paths would probably never cross ever again.

A few days had gone by. Henry's main goal was to heal himself. He would occasionally leave the safe room and go to the surface to have a look.

Within those days, some people did arrive at the house and conducted a search. However, the four new members brought in by the short-haired lady sent them off very quickly. Those four men would also go out every day to collect some information, then analyse their target in the safe room.

On the seventh day of Henry's stay in the safe room, the short-haired lady and others decided to move out.

Although the short-haired lady also told the other four of her teammates that Henry was going to cooperate with them, nobody took her seriously.

As for the blonde lady, although her wound had begun to heal, she still was not fit enough to participate in such a dangerous mission. Moreover, she was not a member of combat, so she remained in the safe room, and so did Henry.

Within the entire week, the blonde lady looked a lot more haggard, and her withdrawal symptoms happened from time to time. This caused her to be unable to sleep, and unable to eat at the same time. She just curled up on the bed listlessly. She was once a beautiful lady, but in the past seven days, she had been tortured to an extremely sorry state. She had lost all of that beauty she once had, and her eyes were empty.

Henry sighed. He despised drugs from the bottom of his heart. It could easily destroy a person and his home. Back then when he still roamed the underground world, he would free all of those who were addicted to it from life along the way.

Henry walked over to the blonde lady and looked at her, then said, "It won't be long before everything here is over. You'd be able to go back and recuperate for a while. This too shall pass."

The blonde lady remained curled up, but she opened her mouth, and managed to spit out two words, "Thank you."

"Let's go. We can't stay here anymore." Henry grabbed her arm. "In such a small town, the native awareness of the residents is very strong. Their very different Yan Xia features had long been noticed. People would eventually come searching this area the moment they made their move. Moreover, their were very likely to fail their mission..."

Henry said as he glanced at the wall. For the past seven days, the short-haired lady and those men had been planning out their actions. Henry saw that their plan was quite a good one, but there were still some flaws to it. Although the flaws were subtle, but they could be fatal.

"Fail?" the blonde shook her head. "That won't happen. The captain is very meticulous in his work. He has never failed before."

"Of course." Henry nodded. "To be in this line of work, you'd lose your life instantly if you fail. Those who live to this day, had basically never failed before."

The blonde lady was stunned for a moment, then a trace of worry appeared in her eyes. Among them, it was her who trusted him the most.

"Let's go." Henry pulled the blonde lady up. They opened the door of the safe room and walked out.

There was no one on the first floor of the house. A ray of sunlight shone down on them the moment Henry opened the door, hitting him with a sense of comfort. The blonde also showed an enjoyable expression, she had been living in the dark, gloomy safe room for the past seven days.
