Chapter 823
Chapter 823
The house was a mess. It was as if it had been ransacked. It shocked everyone.
There was blood everywhere on the ground. Tatiana and Aria were both lying in a pool of blood, on the
verge of death.
Darcy and Cherron were also anesthetized and lying outside the house.
Mr. Everett… He was ‘naked’ and covered in wounds.
This was the scene in front of them.
It gave them the wrong impression that Mr. Everett was having an affair with another woman and was
caught in a battle.
But in reality…
He had almost lost his innocence and his life.
“… Mr. Everett, are you alright?” Benny asked cautiously.
“What do you guys think? What a load of crap. It’s all over, and you guys only thought of coming here
now.” Bruce cursed fiercely.
These bodyguards received the best treatment and were known as the most professional specialized
bodyguards.
However, all of them were stupid and did not seem to be smart at all. Especially Darcy and Cherron,
they were simply
useless.
But, they could not be blamed entirely for this. Aria was such an intelligent woman. Bruce had suffered
a considerable setback, let alone his bodyguards!
“What are you waiting for? Hurry up and help me save her.”
“Oh, oh…” The bodyguards obediently rushed forward to check on Tatiana, Darcy, and everyone else.
“Tatiana, are you alright?”
Tatiana took a deep breath and struggled to get up as she was weak. Unfortunately, she collapsed
again.
“Sorry we were late.” The bodyguards looked around vigilantly, their eyes filled with anxiety.
They were afraid Mr. Everett would get even more angry and fire them.
“Cough, cough, stop blaming them…” Joanna almost lost her life, but she still pleaded weakly on behalf
of the bodyguards.
Bruce frowned when he heard her speak.
Although the bodyguards had arrived very late, Bruce and Joanna heaved a sigh of relief. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
After all, both were seriously injured and needed immediate care.
Tom glanced at Aria. “Mr. Everett, Miss Haynes. How should we handle this woman?”
Bruce glanced at Aria sinisterly.
Aria was already on the verge of death and kept vomiting blood. Her eyes were filled with despair as
she looked at Bruce unwillingly.
“…Ah, Bruce…” Aria’s throat made an extremely weak sound as she tried to speak.
Bruce’s eyes darkened as he snatched a specialized, modified pistol from Benny’s hand.
Bruce aimed the gun straight at Aria.
“Bang, bang, bang!” Bruce was still furious and fired three shots at Aria.
The first shot hit her left shoulder.
The second shot hit her in the shin.
The third shot hit a few inches above her head.
“Ah…” Aria was shot twice, and she let out another painful whimper.
Unfortunately, she no longer had the strength to struggle. Even breathing was incredibly difficult.
“Ugh, ah, Bruce…”
“Don’t call me by my name.”
“Aria, I really want to shoot your head off,” Bruce said hatefully and sinisterly. He pulled back his wrist
and put away the pistol.
It would be easy to kill her.
He wanted to shoot her.
However, he couldn’t. Aria had a unique reputation.
She was also a unique, talented agent, particularly chosen and secretly trained by Mr. Thompson.
To a certain extent, they were colleagues.
If he killed her, he had no way to explain to the organization. Even if he wanted to dispose of her, he’d
be better off handing her over to the organization.
Aria whimpered in pain. Tears and blood blurred her eyes. “…Ah, Bruce, I beg you, give me another
shot…”
“Let me… let me die in pain!” After Aria finished speaking, she couldn’t help but breathe out.
Although Bruce shot her twice, he did not hit her vitals.
She would not die instantly or anytime soon.
However, the intense pain all over her body and the pain in her heart made her want to die.
At that moment, Aria just wanted to die a quick death. She only wanted to die by his hands.
“Hmph, you think killing you is enough for me?” Bruce said coldly and did not look at her again.
“Benny, drive to the hospital now.”
“Okay, Mr. Everett.”
“Mr. Everett, what should we do with this woman?”
Bruce frowned and thought for a moment. “Throw her at the hospital entrance and let her fend for
herself.”
“Mr. Everett, do we need to call the police?”
Bruce calmed down and said coldly, “There’s no need to call the police. Send someone to throw her at
the entrance of the hospital.”
“Oh, okay.”
Then.
The bodyguards split up and carried Darcy and Cherron into the car. They also bandaged Tatiana and
took her into the car Bruce staggered back to his bedroom and found his clothes. After putting on his
clothes, he carried Joanna and left the
cabin.
They all rushed to the hospital.
In the car.
Bruce held Joanna’s hand tightly and said with heart-aching pain. “Joann, it’s okay. We’ll be at the
hospital soon.”
“It’s all my fault for not protecting you well. You almost lost your life because of me!”
As Bruce spoke, he felt a lump in his throat and could not help but cry..
He had always promised Joanna that he would protect her for the rest of her life and not let anyone
hurt her. He had always. been confident he could protect her and the children well.
However, reality… was not always as planned.
Many things in life are unexpected and beyond his control.
“I hate myself for what has happened. I shouldn’t have let a lunatic into house.”
“I shouldn’t have been merciful…”
my
…Cough, cough, I’m fine…” Joanna smiled at him, wanting to comfort him.
Unfortunately, she was too severely injured and passed out.
Several of their cars were speeding toward the hospital.
The nearest hospital was more than 62 miles away.
The drive would take at least an hour.
Fortunately, Aria’s touring car had glucose, antibiotics, and painkillers..
Bruce bandaged Joanna and gave her painkillers.
An hour and a half later.
At the hospital.
Benny drove Joanna and Tatiana to the largest private hospital in the area.
Tom drove Aria to another hospital on his own.
Bruce wanted to kill Aria with his bare hands.
But he reasoned with himself and did not kill her.
He had to truthfully report this situation to Mr. Thompson and request that Aria be rigorously punished.
Moreover, when
he returned to the country, he would immediately submit his resignation letter to Mr. Thompson and
leave the
organization by all means.
“Mr. Everett, we’re at the hospital.”.
“Get out of the car.”
Bruce carried Joanna out of the car.
“Doctor, quickly save her…”
Soon after.
Joanna was pushed into the operating room, and Tatiana was taken into another.
Joanna’s left arm and one of her ribs were broken. Her left eardrum was also ruptured, and she was
afraid she would have a hearing impairment.
Tatiana was covered in wounds. She was in worse condition than Joanna.
Darcy and Cherron were drugged, but they were stable. They only had a few bruises.
