Chapter 142 He came to her rescue
Chapter 142 He came to her rescue
David fell apart at the sight. He shook his head with fear and shouted, “You’re insane! Stop hurting
yourself. You’ll bleed to death if you don’t. I won’t touch you ever again…”
He was practically sobbing at the end. He had never seen such a horrifying scene before as a
privileged young man from a rich family.
All he wanted to do at the moment was get out of here, because Joey had apparently gone mad. But
the door was locked from the outside and he couldn’t leave even if he wanted to. Paralyzed with fear
on the floor, he deeply regretted having followed Mrs. Linderman’s advice.
“Do you expect me…to believe you?”
Joey had lost so much blood that she started to feel light-headed. But she managed to keep her eyes
wide open to stare at David warily. Her smile was sad. She disappointedly shook her head and
murmured, “I trusted you. I’ve trusted many people in the world, but…look at what has happened to
me. You…all of you…have betrayed my trust…” NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
She didn’t stay awake for quite long. Finding herself losing consciousness again, she decided to raise
the knife to cut her arm again.
All of a sudden, there came a loud noise and the door was kicked open from outside by three men.
They stormed into the room like three raging lions.
Looking up, she thought she was dreaming when she saw the face of one of them.
But the next second, she was pulled into his warm and familiar arms and his voice was so loving and
real.
“Oh, baby, baby, baby…”
Allen Charles hugged her tightly and it was heartbreaking to hear his voice again, “You're so silly. How
could you be so cruel to yourself, baby…Chance, please treat her wounds. Quick!”
They had come to her rescue, Allen, Chance and Martin.
On the day of departure at the airport, Allen hadn’t gone back home after Joey had left. Instead he had
decided to follow the ladyboy queen Fiona wherever she went around the clock. He had told her that he
wouldn’t stop until she revealed Joey’s whereabouts. Finally impressed by his sincerity, Fiona gave in
and told him that Joey had gone back to her hometown. But most importantly, Fiona knew that Joey
had loved Allen too much to let him go.
Once Allen knew where she had gone, he immediately flew back home and got the address of her
hometown. Then he asked Martin to fly him to the village in a helicopter. When Chance learnt that Allen
and Martin were going to track Joey down in the village, he jumped on board without hesitation.
Mrs. Linderman went pale when she opened the door and found the three of them at the door, because
she had just tricked Joey into going to David’s home alone.
Her strange behavior had aroused Allen’s suspicion. He had a bad feeling about it. He had alertly
cross-examined her about where Joey had gone. He had also threatened her.
Chance and Martin had proved to be helpful too. An essentially cowardly bully herself, Mrs. Linderman
had found it hard to stand up against them. With her knees weak with fear, she had made a full
confession.
They were furious to hear it. But they all knew that the top priority was to help Joey out. That was the
whole story.
Chance quickly went to treat Joey’s wounds as he had been told to. His medical skills had come in
handy under such circumstance.
Martin beat David up in a fit of rage. David was no match for him at all. There was nothing David could
do but clutch his head and scream on his knees. He could barely return a blow.
Held tightly in Allen’s arms, Joey loved the way he smelled. It was nice and familiar. She suddenly burst
into tears, because she could finally relax now.
The aphrodisiac started to kick in when her nerves were soothed. It went all over her in an instant.
“Allen, Allen, Allen…”
She wanted him now, because she knew he was the man she had missed terribly and he was hugging
her now. She knew she could finally trust him with herself. She reached into his shirt to touch his
smooth skin which was the only thing to cool her down at the moment.
