Billionaire Defiant Wife Chapter 697
Advertisement
The captain of the guard had no chance to finish his words, and the president flung his whip on the horse, forcing it to run harder.
The captain of the guard followed him and heard Mr. Black roar, "What happened?"
"It was the princess's horse that wounded others, and the princess was gone."
Mr. Black pulled the reins violently and slowed down, "What are you talking about? Avery was gone."
This woman wasn't running away, was she?
Did she forget the little baby was still in his hands?
"You can't even protect a woman?" Mr. Black darkened his face suddenly. If Avery ran away, what about the wedding?
"She took a box. I think she went to the desert."
With a long face, Mr. Black rode to the desert and saw the woman on horseback. It seemed that she was looking for something.
"Watch over!" Mr. Black suddenly shouted.
Avery looked back and was frightened. She has been looking for army ants and did not expect that they climbed on her horse's back leg.
She opened the wooden box in her hand hurriedly and wanted to release the small white worms. Unfortunately, it was too late!
The horse shook wildly. Its hind legs had been gnawed by army ants, and white bones were revealed.
The box was thrown to the ground by her, and the little white worms wriggled out of the box.
The army ants have begun to eat the horse's thigh. Avery pulled the reins, trying to stabilize its body.
The horse finally threw her to the ground.
The sand was filled with millions of army ants. As soon as she fell, thousands of army ants would climb to her body, paralyze her nerves with the venom they secreted, and take only a few minutes to nibble her to bones.

Mr. Black rushed over. When Avery was about to fall, he grabbed her by his arm and pulled her hard.
Mr. Black turned away with Avery as the army ants ate the horse.
"Do you know it's dangerous?" Mr. Black really wanted to kick the woman off his horse.
Avery turned pale when she looked at the bones of the horse. She took a sigh of relief, "I know you'll come with me."
"What if I don't?"
Avery smiled and pointed to the sky, "It's destiny. No one can disobey."
Mr.Black immediately gave her a hit, "What have you been through? There is distortion in your mind."
"You are not better than me, Ladyboy."
Mr. Black was speechless. The woman was about to scare him to death just now, and now she joked about his wearing.
He didn't know that Avery was so shocked by the army ants that she could only be relieved in this way.
Besides, she was nervous about whether the worms would survive.
After all, the army ants shocked her every time, and the small white worms couldn't survive every time.
As the guards arrived, they quickly opened the wooden box and let the little white worms come out.
White worms were the natural enemy of the army ants. When worms saw army ants, they would expose their sharp teeth and instantly become ferocious.
Ten minutes later, with the exception of a few worms that darted back into the desert, army ants were almost entirely dead.
Army ants had a kind of venom, which would paralyze small white worms. White worms that were not strong enough would die.
So that's why treating newly developed toxins required surviving white worms.
Avery stared at the creepy little white worms on the ground nervously.

There wasn't one that survived.
"Not this time?" Avery didn't see any worms moving.
Instead, Mr. Black was peaceful, "The success rate is not high."
"When is the next time?" Avery held the reins tightly. The green tendons have protruded.
"It depends on the time when army ants show up next time."
Avery was disappointed. She thought the baby could have at least the first treatment.
It wasn't that easy.
The sunset glowed in the desert.
No matter how beautiful the scenery was, Avery didn't want to appreciate it and went back to the presidential palace.
She was riding a horse with Mr. Black, so no one on the road dared point at her.
Avery did not find a pair of eyes full of resentment staring at her.
Robert was sweating, and he was worried about Mrs. Howel.
Mr. Howel has been standing in front of the windowsill, waiting for Mrs. Howel to come back, but he saw her and Mr. Black on a horse.
The two's riding poses were so intimate.
Robert quietly glanced at Mr. Howel, who just turned around and scared him.
"Mr. Howel..." Robert cleared his throat and found that Mr. Howel's expression had not changed much.
He thought Mr. Howel was upset. However, Mr. Howel went to the table where there was dinner brought in by the servants. Then Mr. Howel picked up the dishes and began to eat.
"Mr. Howel, I have successfully sent the code to our people." All their communications equipment was confiscated. Fortunately, their bodyguards were specially trained, so Robert could deliver instructions to them by turning off the lights.
Robert didn't expect Mr. Howel to let all his men retreat.
Was he going to get out of here alone? Or was he ready to stay here?
Evan raised his hand to interrupt Robert's words, "Avery went into the presidential palace?"
After a moment, Robert returned to the windowsill and looked out. Avery and Mr. Black had disappeared.
***
Back in the presidential palace, Avery was not in the mood. After dinner, while Mr. Black called the various officials to discuss state affairs, she ordered all the servants to go away.
Then she looked around the room, making sure there was no camera. Then she took out the uniform of a servant from the closet and put it on quickly.
She heard that Evan was in the presidential palace.
So she stole a servant's costume.
The costume was a black gown, with a black headscarf, which could only show her eyes.
Standing in front of the dressing mirror and making sure that no one would recognize her, Avery went to the bedroom door, took a deep breath, and opened the door with great force.
