Chapter 424
Before she could finish speaking, I heard a deafening sound. I hesitated for a few seconds before
looking in the direction the driver had driven from earlier.
A tanker had crashed squarely into the Granger family's black Bentley. The car was deformed, and it
was unlikely that anyone in the car had survived.
Then, Nerissa's legs went limp as she collapsed to the ground. Her pupils constricted in fear as she
stuttered, "He wants to kill me! He really wants to kill me!"
My breathing all but stopped for a moment before I reached out to grab hold of her. She looked at me
incredulously and said, "Arianna, Irvin's out of his mind. He wants to kill me! He wants me dead!" novelbin
For a moment, I felt that what she said was a bit strange, so I said, "Get up first, it was just an
accident."
"No!" She kept shaking her head. "This is not an accident. It's not an accident. He planned this. This
was his plan all along."
I couldn't help but frown and helped her sit on a chair nearby. I sighed and said, "Aunt Nerissa, wait
here for me. I'll get you a glass of water."
It was obvious that she was frightened, which was why she was being delusional.
She grabbed hold of me instantly and shook her head vigorously, saying, "Arianna, you can't leave.
Irvin wants to kill me, you have to stay with me!"
Feeling baffled, I frowned and said, "If Irvin really wanted you dead, he has a hundred ways to make
that happen. There's no reason for him to do something like this, so what happened just now was an
accident. You're overthinking. I'll get you a glass of water."
After I let go of her hand, I went to the supermarket feeling upset. Irvin was indeed more depressed
these days, but it didn't mean that he hated Nerissa and wanted to kill her.
I bought some water and was about to go back when I saw a black Maybach rushing in the direction of
where Nerissa was sitting.
Everything happened so fast that I didn't have time to respond. Out of nowhere, Hendrix rushed out to
shield Nerissa.
I stopped breathing for a moment before I dropped the water and ran in Hendrix's direction. I
instinctively stood in his way.
When I saw the person through the windshield, my eyes couldn't help but widen with fear. It was Irvin,
but why was he...
Perhaps he didn't expect that I would suddenly rush out onto the street. He frantically swerved the car
to avoid me before it crashed into the intersection nearby.
After the car came to a stop, I breathed a sigh of relief and looked back at Nerissa, who was paralyzed
with fear.
"I told you, he's going to kill..."
"Bang!" A huge sound rang out, cutting off Nerissa's trembling voice.
I suddenly stiffened and felt a strong sorrow welling up in my chest.
I didn't know how much courage it took for me to look back and seek out Irvin who had originally gotten
the car parked safely.
At that moment, he laid on the ground with bright red blood starting to pool around his torso.
Why did he have to get out of the car?
My knees buckled, and all the air was sucked out from my body. My knees crashed to the ground, and I
wanted to crawl over to him but my body was sapped of strength.
How could this be?
Why did he have to get out of the car when he was already safe? Why did he have to act in such a rash
manner? Why...did this have to happen?
"Ah..." Nerissa also saw Irvin lying on the ground. For a moment, she cried out in tears and in fear.
Then, Hendrix picked me up and I grabbed onto him. A long time had passed before I managed to
scream, "Get him to the hospital!"
