Chapter 43
The scene in front of them caused a huge commotion.
Everyone was shocked. The legendary warrior Shawn actually volunteered to carry a country bumpkin like Zoe in his arms.
They couldn’t believe it, thinking that eyes must be playing tricks on them like this couldn’t possibly be happening.
But the truth was that Shawn really did pick up Zoe and carry her out of the classroom, leaving everyone else behind.
The crowd was left speechless, their minds struggling to process what they had just witnessed. It was like the world was suddenly falling apart.
“Oh, my God. Do you see what I see? Mr. Ludwig actually carried Zoe, that country bumpkin, out in his arms… Like, for real?”
“Damn it! That bitch actually swooped in on my man!”

age. She couldn’t believe that Zoe had stolen the guy who was supposed to be hers.
She thought, ‘Shawn really likes Zoe that much? Damn it! Zoe deserves to die! I won’t let her keep breathing. The competition between Zoe and Zack is coming up, and on that day, I’m going to watch Zoe fall with my own eyes.
Shawn took Zoe downstairs, and a jeep pulled up in front of them.
Once they got in, Zoe stayed close to Shawn, holding his arm. “Mr. Ludwig, are we going on a date?”
Hearing that, the driver, a soldier, couldn’t hold back a laugh. But one sharp look from Shawn made him stop, swallowing his laughter.
“Hospital,” Shawn said.
Zoe’s eyes flickered. She thought, ‘Is he still doubting who I am? This
guy is so difficult.
“Mr. Ludwig, are you worried about my injuries? I feel much better now. I don’t really need to go to the hospital,” Zoe said, pretending to be weak.
“No, the snake that bit you is special. Its venom can destroy human neurons. You need serie leaving no room for argument.
checks and treatment,” Shawn said, his tone firm,
Zoe’s eyes darkened. The truth was that she knew her injuries weren’t that bad. She knew that shown was still testing her.
But Zoe had been a mercenary for years, and nothing scared her. ‘Check me all you want. I’m afraid?‘ she thought.
When they arrived at the hospital, Zoe was asked to undergo a full–body check to see if the snake venom had spread throughout her body. In reality, Shawn probably just wanted to check for any other injuries.
As the queen of mercenaries, Zoe had countless scars on her body, which she wore like badges of honor. They were no secret.
But since she was undercover, she had already made preparations. There was no way that she was going to let Shawn, her target, uncover her
secrets.
Zoe was led into a room for a full–body check. A doctor and a nurse were assigned to examine her.
When the doctor saw Zoe, he gave her a quick hand gesture, Zoe understood immediately.
She had placed her people at the hospital and given the orders some time ago. Her team had already infiltrated Jelonsburg, ready to act at any moment. The doctor in front of her was one of her mercenary group members,
The nurse helped Zoe undress for the checkup Zoe didn’t resist, and she was very cooperative the entire time.
Shawn had sent the nurse to check if Zoe had any injuries.
Unfortunately, the marse found nothing. Zoe’s skin was flawless without a single wound or even a mole.
When the checkup was over, the nurse went out to report what she saw to Shawn
Hearing the report, Shawn frowned, thinking. Could I have been wrong? Is she really not Firefox?

What Shawn didn’t know was that after the nurse left, Zoe smiled at the doctor and said, “Good job.”
Some of the scars on her body couldn’t be concealed, so she used a few tricks to cover them up. What the nurse saw was actually the fake skin Zoe had applied. But no one else would ever know that.
In the moments that followed, it was clear that Shawn was disappointed.
