Dear Soldier, Put Your Gun Down

Chapter 51 He Is a Jerk

Winona didn't see that familiar figure or receive his domineering hug. What came into view were

several gloomy faces.

Her heart sank to the bottom, but she managed to smile stubbornly. "Where is Matt? Buying night

snacks?"

The others glanced at Felix, and the latter bit the bullet. "Winona, let's talk inside."

In the room, everyone was silent for a moment.

She drank three glasses of water in a row. Holding the glass, her fingers trembled slightly. "Go ahead. I

can take it."

"We didn't find Matt. Rumor… has it that Logan's men found his body."

She jerked up, and the glass crashed on the floor. "No! He won't die!"

"Winona, calm down. Herman has gone to investigate it with several men. We also believe that Matt is

fine."

Winona stopped talking. The others exchanged looks and left quietly.

She didn't sleep or eat all night. The man kept flashing across her mind. When she closed her eyes,

she would see his frivolous smile. Then he was seen covered in blood. A cold sweat broke out, and she

sobered up.

Herman came back early the next morning. Her hair disheveled, Winona hastened over and asked in a

hoarse voice, "It's not him, right?"

Herman handed a metal amulet to her. "According to our man inside, that body is burned. This is taken

from him. The amulet belongs to the general."

The amulet felt scalding as Winona slowly held it in her palm. "So what? This kind of amulet is

common. A lot of people have it…"

She couldn't even convince herself. She could still remember what Matt had told her. The amulet was

devoutly acquired by his mother from Saint Mountain. The monk saw that she didn't have much money,

craved a Buddha statue out of a piece of iron, and gave it to her. She cherished it as a treasure and

carefully put it around his neck.

She knew the importance of the amulet and gave it to him. He would not take it off easily.

"Our man inside has collected the blood. I've sent it to the hospital for testing. The results will come out

before supper," Herman said in a gloomy voice.

"I'll wait."

Felix bought her breakfast, and she didn't have a single bite.

"Winona, eat something. If Matt sees you like this when he comes back, he'll beat us up for sure."

"I'm sleepy. You can leave now."

Equally depressed, they went out one after another.

"Woody and I will wait in the hospital. As soon as the results come out, I'll tell everyone. We should…

get mentally prepared," Herman said.

After seeing the two men off, they felt depressed and worried about Winona. If an accident happened

to her, they would find it hard to face Matt. Therefore, they chose to guard outside.

Felix paced back and forth in the corridor. "Boss, be safe. Amitabha, Amitabha."

"Our boss is a wise and composed man. I don't believe that's his body," said Samuel.

Kevin scratched his head. "Yeah, he is not that weak!"

In the room, Winona lay on the bed and felt antsy as if she were on hot bricks. Her mind a mess, she

started to panic.

Before he appeared in her world, she had always believed that she would not fall in love. Her life would

be lived out peacefully with Benjamin. Like a stone into the lake, he stirred up her heart, protected her,

and doted on her. Although he was domineering and frivolous, she couldn't help falling in love with him.

"Matt, I've decided to be with you and love you for the rest of my life. Come back safely."

When it was finally the evening, Herman and Woody showed up with the test report.

They looked gloomy and remained silent. Felix lost control of his emotions and burst into tears. "Boss,

you're so cruel. How are we and Winona supposed to live a life without you?"

"Shut up! Matt won't die!"

Winona suddenly tore the report into pieces. The results were in front of her, so what? Dead or alive,

she needed to see him!

"Go order the meal! I'm hungry."

A waiter soon served the dishes. She wolfed the food down as if she had been starving for a long time,

but the red rims of her eyes gave away her grief.

She raised her head and looked at everyone. "What are you waiting for? Eat."

She ate nonstop till she felt like throwing up. Still, she kept stuffing food into her mouth. "Look, that jerk

will not die. As the saying goes, bad people live longer. He is bad and a jerk…"

Finally, she couldn't have anymore and threw up what she had just gobbled down.

She bent over for a long time, and her shoulders kept shaking. She cried but did not want them to see

it. Her tears were wiped off forcefully along with the grease around her mouth.

Herman frowned slightly. "Madam, take care for the general's sake."

"Winona, did you come up with anything?" Felix asked.

Winona stuck a fruit knife into the table. "I'm going to find Logan. If Matt is alive, I'll bring him back. If he

is dead… I'll kill Logan at all costs and avenge him!"

The ever-steady Samuel mused, "Logan is the head of Cosmos. There are countless bodyguards

around him, and he is very cunning. I think he has gone back to his base, and we should draw up a

plan."

The foolhardy Kevin got emotional. "Samuel, stop equivocating. Matt is gone, and we should smite

them all. Winona, count me in!"

Winona's eyes were filled with determination and resolution. "You're not going! He saved me by NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

himself. Why can't I? At the worst, I'll perish with Logan together. I won't drag Matt's brothers into this."

They hadn't expected her to go all out like that. Her overbearing vibe could not be ignored.

Back when Matt chose her, they found her ordinary except for her pretty face. Till that moment, they

figured out the reason. There were many pretty ladies in this world, but few were as tough, righteous,

and faithful. She was like a Magnolia blossoming on the blustery cliff.

Just then, Herman's cell phone rang. He turned around to answer it before the expression on his face

changed.

He came in and called upon them to go. "Give her some space to calm down."

When the others left, Felix comforted her again. "Matt doesn't want to see you hurt, and I won't watch

you die."

While he was chattering, Winona took her chance to knock him out, stripped off his nightwalker outfit,

and put it on.

She checked her guise in the mirror and prepared to leave when a figure suddenly dashed past.

"Who is there?"
