Chapter 37
A shrill female voice rang out again: “Lucian, you’re the reason my husband’s ruined! I’m going to k il l
you!”
The woman, seeing that she hadn’t hit Lucian, swung her knife again
“Looking for trouble!” Lucian lifted his hand, grabbing the woman’s knife. With a forceful squeeze, a
sharp scream echoed in the air. The knife fell from the woman’s hand, her wrist twisted at an odd
angle. It was clear she had broken her wrist. The bodyguards quickly stepped in and took the woman
away.
Everyone was stunned at the sudden turn of events.
Someone actually dared to try to assassinate Lucian in broad daylight!
Only a n ut job would do something like this.
“That… that woman looks like Tessa. I heard she lost her mind when her husband went bankrupt.
“Isn’t her husband that Brody? I think his company got bought out by Lindberg Corporation…”
“Shush, don’t talk…”
Seeing Lucian’s darkened expression, everyone closed their mouths and stopped their idle chatter.
“Allison, are you okay? Daisy’s voice was shaky. She looked at Allison’s pale face, her eyes
desperately focused on her arm.
On Allison’s arm was an ug ly wound. Her wh ite shirt was soaked with blood, droplets continuously
dripping down.
Allison felt her vision darken. She felt no pain in her arm because it had gone numb…
She looked up, and everything seemed to swirl before her eyes.
Lucian’s face entered her line of sight-
Was she about to faint? Was she hallucinating?
She even saw a hint of concern and shock on Lucian’s face…
The next second, Lucian bent down and picked her up, striding towards his car. Shown immediately
opened the door, and Lucian got into the car, holding Allison. “Drive to the hospital, now!”
Shawn didn’t waste any time, and he stepped on the gas.
Lucian lowered his head, looking at the woman in his arms.
In the man’s eyes, the shock could not be hidden.
Was she not afraid of dying?
It wouldn’t have hit her arm if that woman’s knife had been a little off!
Why?
Why did she block the knife for him?
“Allison!” Lucian called her name.
Allison’s thoughts were clear. She seemed to realize she was in Lucian’s arms. She tried to struggle
but found that Lucian was holding her even tighter.
“I can go to the hospital myself” Allison’s lips were pale.
“You, by yourself? There was no longer a hint of concern or shock in Lucian’s eyes, and it had returned
to its usual coldness. “Allison, you’re playing hard to get pretty well, huh? I don’t need saving, and I,
Lucian, don’t need a woman to shield me.”
“You’re overthinking” Allison looked away. “I just happened to see it. If I see a cat or a dog injured on
the street, I’ll help them too,”
The next second, Allison felt like Lucian was about to crush her shoulder.
It seemed like it took all of Lucian’s willpower to suppress his anger. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
In the hospital, Allison had seven stitches on her forearm.
While they were stitching her up, her forearm was numb, but now, the pain seemed to double. All she
could do was bite her lip and tremble slightly.
Lucian stood behind her, blocking her view with his hand.
“If you’re scared, don’t look”
