Chapter 348 Want to Give It a Try

Lia took the gun but almost dropped it. It was much heavier than she had imagined, and she struggled to lift it

with her thin arms and legs. Dominic approached Bella with his gun and asked, "Want to give it a try?"

Bella quickly shook her head. "No, that's okay! | don't know how to handle it, and I'm afraid I'll accidentally fire it.

I'll just watch you guys."

He smiled, casually holding the gun in one hand and taking her hand with the other as they got into the car.

They split into three vehicles-Pierre and Xavier in one, Bella and Dominic in another, and Leonard, Lia, and lan in

the last. The drivers were staff from the hunting grounds. They were also guides and would share sof the

rules and restrictions of the area. It was clear that Pierre and Xavier had other plans as they quickly parted ways

with the rest of the group. When Xavier leaned out of his car to search for prey with his gun, the barrel was

unexpectedly pointed at the vehicle that Leonard was in. The driver gasped and spoke in the local language, "Mr.

Xavier, you can't do that. It's too dangerous..."

Pierre calmly pressed down on Xavier's gun barrel. "Don't show your thoughts so obviously. It's not the right time

yet. | know you're not happy about Dad splitting the inheritance into three parts. But we grew up together, after

all. Are you really willing to go that far?" Xavier scoffed. "Money and benefits cfirst. Isn't that what Dad

taught us? What does family matter? Besides, he's just an outsider we grew up with. You're even more ruthless

than me, so why pretend to be ssaint?"

Pierre didn't respond directly and lit a cigarette. "Calm down and enjoy yourself. We have plenty of time. If you

act now, you'll end up dead at Dominic's hands."

Xavier glanced at the car with Dominic and Bella, his expression icy. "Leonard is just lucky. | would've dealt with

him ages ago if it weren't for Dominic."

After nearly an hour of driving, Bella finally spotted sanimals.

The hunting ground had larger carnivorous animals, resembling a semi-wild ecosystem altered by humans. The

animals here were more alert and wary of humans, unlike domesticated animals that

weren't afraid.

In the distance, Bella spotted a herd of deer grazing peacefully. Dominic signaled the driver to stop the car far

away and then got out to find a good spot for hunting.

Bella followed him, squatting down

to mimic his posture. Watching him concentrate so intently filled her with admiration. He was so skilled. She had

no idea he could handle a gun so well. en

Noticing her gaze, he turned his head to her and asked, "Want to give it a try?"

Bella shook her head awkwardly. "No, it's fine! I'm just curious. You don't need to worry about me."

He smiled softly, and as he joked with her, he pulled the trigger. The deer scattered in panic, and the one that

was hit struggled for a few steps before collapsing.

It was clear Dominic had chosen a powerful gun. Otherwise, he would have needed a second shot for it to be

effective.

Dominic waved to the driver, who then brought the car closer. They loaded the dying deer into the vehicle as

they could choose to take their trophy with them.

By evening, everyone gathered back at the starting point. Without exception, all of them had a successful hunt.

Leonard and Jan were off in the

distance, deep in conversation.

Meanwhite, Lia ran over to the

weapons selection area, her face full

of curiosity. Suddenly, Xavier

approached her. He picked up a gun

and handed it to her.

"Letshow you how to use it."

Before Lia could respond, Xavier moved behind her and guided her hands to hold the gun properly. When she

realized the gun was pointing at Leonard, she tried to pull away. "That's too dangerous! | don't want to try

anymore!"

Xavier smiled, but his eyes were cold. "Don't worry. There are no bullets in it."
