Dear Soldier, Put Your Gun Down novel Chapter 54

Soon, the FALCON Team sent over a video. Matt’s face turned solemn when he saw the familiar figure on the screen.

Right after he got off the plane, he told Herman to send Winona back to the manor and then planted a kiss on her forehead, “Wait for me at home.”

But she took his hand and crossed his fingers, “I’ll go with you. I’ve told you that you wouldn’t get rid of me in your lifetime. So, no matter what you are after, right or wrong, I’ll be by your side.”

After speaking, she turned her head and smiled sweetly at him. He was moved, held her closer, and then kissed her.

The car stopped at Tucker’s villa. As Matt appeared, the butler came forward and greeted him with joy, “General Snider, it’s so good to see you. I’m informing Mr. Tucker right away.”

“Don’t bother! I’m not here looking for my mentor today.”

He strode in, holding Winona’s hand.

When Lilian saw Matt appearing in her villa, she was overjoyed, running over to throw herself in his arms. However, Matt pulled her arms with force, “Listen, here is something you have to explain.”

The excitement and joy were quenched by his indifference. Lilian forced a smile, “So, you are not here to visit my family but come to denounce me. Tell me, did I do anything wrong to offend Winona? And why are you so furious to question me like this, regardless of our past?”

Winona disdained Lilian inwardly for her hypocrisy. What she said just now had made Winona a mischief-maker who intended to cause conflicts between them. What a vicious woman.

Matt shook off Lilian’s hand, disgust filling his eyes, “You know what you have done! Our past? Ridiculous! You wouldn’t have done any of it if you still cared about the old times!”

The disgust and even anger in his eyes broke her heart. She had loved him for so many years, yet he was here, scolding her for another woman.

She looked at him with tears in her eyes, “Matt, you never talked to me like this before. You used to...”

Bam! Matt suddenly threw his phone in front of her, sneering, “Watch it yourself!”

Trembling, Lilian picked up the phone and clicked open the video. It was her making a call in the telephone booth. Her heart sunk all at once, but soon she calmed down, knelt, and started to weep, “Matt, I was forced. They... they...” She sobbed.

She cried pitifully, which could easily make any man feel sorry for her. Unfortunately, it was Matt who she was tricking this time.

Winona added calmly, “Miss Tucker, if anything, explain it now. After all, it’s not just about personal grudge but more about the disclosure of state secrets.”

Lilian ground her teeth. Obviously, Winona was telling her that it was useless if she tried to fool them. Publicly or privately, she would be sentenced no matter what. So the best way for her to get a better end was to confess.

She pondered for a moment and made a decision, then pulled out her phone to show him another video, “Matt, I was forced.”

Matt narrowed his eyes when seeing the video. He saw many vulgar men surrounding her. She was in pain, but they insulted her, beat her, and even forced her to do all kinds of unwatchable postures. He just didn’t know that the video was edited by her.

She sobbed, “After they kidnapped me, they raped me by turns. I was too afraid that the video would threaten my father’s reputation if it leaked, so I... I had to follow their orders and do whatever they asked me to do.”

She was almost out of her breath, groveling over to pull the hem of Matt’s trousers, “Matt, please, I didn’t mean to set up you and Winona. If my apology is not enough, then kill me instead.”

Matt looked at her coldly, “Do you think I will believe you?”

Compared to him, Winona was shocked that Lilian was raped. However, that wasn’t enough to mess her mind.
