And a curse no one dares to challenge.

Laurette was shocked. Was that a sniper she saw? Her sharp eyes caught the moment the man pulled the trigger—he must have known she had spotted him. Laurette quickly traced the direction of the gun.
It was aimed at Richard.
Only she had the right to take revenge and kill him. No one else had that right.
Immediately, she turned to Richard, and he stared at her closely.
“What—”
A bullet hit her. No one knew where it came from. Then another struck.
Richard was stunned as Laurette fell into his open arms. The security team spotted the sniper and quickly surrounded Richard, shielding him, while some of them ran toward the building he was positioned on.
Richard looked into her eyes as they slowly began to close.
“Hey! Hey, look at me… don’t close your eyes!” he shouted, panic rising in his voice as he carried her in his arms and ran swiftly to his car.
