Loving You In Secret novel Chapter 1462

Noah's reaction was equally swift. He sidestepped, narrowly avoiding the strike.

Noah's father had served in the military for years and disliked those who lacked strength. Despite Noah's preference for the arts and his usual display of gentility, he was trained in combat skills and remained unscathed so far despite all the things that happened in his life.

However, the opponent's skills seemed to surpass his.

Another knife was sent at a tricky angle, aiming directly for a vital organ.

Noah, who evaded the first attack, had no time to adjust his posture. Just as the knife was about to pierce into his body, the cat in his arms emitted another piercing scream.

In a flash, the cat pounced toward the assailant, who evaded the attack. The knife directed at Noah deviated slightly, leaving a streak of blood on the black fur of the cat

The blade flew past Noah with a tint of blood on the blade.

Noah was momentarily stunned, his eyes reddening with distress. "Ruby!"

The black cat had saved his life at a critical moment.

Noah loved cats and had a few of them at home. However, he was sentimental and could only care for a few within his capacity. Hence, he had not brought home new cats in years.

This black cat Tyler offered to him as a gift was indeed very much to his liking. Of course, it was because it was from Tyler that he had reservations.

Ever since he had brought the cat home, he had to take responsibility and care for it well, but since it had not been with him for very long, it had not developed the same level of attachment to him as his original cats.

What he least expected was for the cat to save his life.

Noah could not spare time to think about anything and rushed over to check on the cat's condition.

The cat's gaze, however, remained fixed on the assassin. Though it had pounced toward the assailant, its attack was far from fierce. Its hackles had not risen, and its fur had not puffed up in alarm. Instead, it regarded the assassin with a gaze of puzzlement.
