Chapter 20 Getting Injured
That night, Suzy, driving all day, did not wait for Evan to fall asleep. After a shower, she lay on the hotel bed and fell asleep.
The next day, Suzy was awakened by the sound of Evan washing his face. When she opened her eyes, she was still in a daze.
Seeing that Evan had put on his clothes and was about to leave, Suzy hurriedly said, “Wait for me to wash up. I’ll go to the resort with you.”
After that, she rushed out of bed and went to the next room to change her clothes and wash her face.
Evan frowned slightly. He thought Suzy would have to stay in the hotel today after yesterday, but…
He waited two minutes before Suzy came out in a casual grey suit. Evan said indifferently, “I won’t be done until eight today.”
Evan would not bring Suzy into the resort. He did not want outsiders to know about their relationship.
Suzy put on a fake smile when she heard this. “It’s all right. It’s my honor to wait for you.”
Shit, the honor!
Evan was not in the mood to wonder what Suzy was thinking. They walked into the elevator and left together.
When they arrived at the resort, Suzy specifically instructed, “Remember to give me a call if you need anything.”
Evan ignored her.
In this way, Suzy spent the morning in her car. At noon, the car arrived at Cone Town. She ate something and continued waiting in the resort’s parking lot.
In her heart, she felt that the person who wanted to harm Evan would not take action in broad daylight. The resort could not be where the incident occurred, but she was still worried and could only follow Evan. Suzy guessed in her heart that the assaulter would probably wait until Evan returned to the hotel in the evening before taking action.
However, since she was already here, she might as well make the best of it. She had hired so many bodyguards. In her previous life, Evan was probably injured because he went on a business trip alone. In this life, with Suzy keeping an eye on him, he would not get hurt again.
Like that, Suzy spent the entire day playing with her mobile phone.
Evan kept his word and came back at 8. p. m. Seeing him come back, Suzy was already very hungry.
“You drive. I’m out of strength.”
Suzy shifted from the driver’s seat to the passenger’s seat. Evan didn’t say anything and started the car to leave.
The resort was quite remote, and there were no street lamps on the dark highway. Suzy’s phone rang – it was from Nina.
“Miss Carters, Flora went to the audition today. Mr. Vincent is very satisfied and has passed the audition.”
Hearing this, a hint of happiness flashed across Suzy’s face. She then instructed, “Okay, before entering the team, find her an assistant who can fight and protect her.”
“By the way, the recording time of ‘The Shining Youth’ is at eight o’clock tomorrow night.”
Suzy paused for a moment before remembering that she had promised Victor she would visit him at the venue. She wondered if she would be able to make it back tomorrow.
“Okay, I…”
Before she could finish her sentence, Evan slammed on the brakes. Suzy was caught off guard, and his phone fell to the ground.
She looked up, but before asking, she saw two cars blocking their way on the road ahead.
The sudden braking sound came from behind. Suzy looked around and was stunned. Four cars surrounded them, blocking their way. She knew these people were here for Evan, but she still asked hypocritically, “What the fuck? Are they blocking my way or yours?”
The leader lit a cigarette and walked over like a gangster boss. In an arrogant tone, he said, “Mr. Hughes, do you want to be burned to death in the car or get out of the car, and we’ll beat you to death?”
Suzy had thought that these people had attacked Evan at night, but she hadn’t expected that on the way to the hotel, she had pressed the alarm in her bag and turned to look at Evan.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
“The bodyguards I hired will be here soon. Shall we stay in the car for a while?”
However, the other party didn’t want to drag things out. They took out a few boxes of gasoline from the car. They were forcing Evan to get out of the car!
“Wait for me in the car. Don’t get out,” Evan said in a deep and magnetic voice.
A cold aura permeated all over his body. After that, he turned around and got out of the car.
“You… be careful!”
In the current situation, it would be a lie to say that Suzy was not worried. It would take at least ten minutes for those bodyguards to arrive. If she had known earlier, she would have asked them to follow her 24 hours a day. She didn’t want to die here. She had just been reborn not long ago!
Suzy would only be beaten up if she went down. Suzy could only sit obediently in the car and observe the situation outside. There were more than 20 people with iron rods in their hands. When they saw Evan getting out of the car, they did not nag and directly rushed up.
Evan moved quickly and punched one of the opponents in the face. He grabbed the iron rod from the person in the front and turned to hit the person behind him.
His reaction was extremely fast, and his attacks were even more ruthless.
The sound of the fight entered Suzy’s ears. While she was nervous, she was also stunned by Evan. The exciting plot of the movie was presented in front of her eyes.
The boss of the assaulters didn’t seem to expect Evan to be so good at fighting, so he scolded his men angrily.
“All of you, attack together! If we don’t beat him to death, all of you can dream of surviving today!”
Hearing this, Suzy’s heart grew nervous once more.
However, even though more than 20 men surrounded Evan, they were no match for him. Soon, the bodyguards hired by Suzy arrived and quickly joined the battle.
The other party was exhausted at this moment. After bugging them for a few minutes, they wanted to retreat. But in the current situation, how could they leave as they wanted?
Not just the bodyguards hired by Suzy but Evan’s followers also came.
Evan did not need to do it personally, so he turned around and wanted to return to the car to wipe the blood off his hands as he walked.
Suzy had been observing the situation in the car the entire time. She saw in the rearview mirror that the other party’s boss had taken advantage of the chaos to run back into the car. When he reappeared, he had a gun in his hand.
He raised the gun in his hand and faced Evan’s back.
At night, their ears were filled with noise. Evan’s eyes were gloomy. When he was about to reach the car, he saw Suzy getting out of it in a hurry.
“Be careful!”
As her voice faded, Suzy rushed over and hugged Evan. A gunshot rang out.
Evan’s expression froze, and he quickly came back to his senses. Just as Suzy was about to fall in front of her, he hurriedly picked her up.
Suzy felt a piercing pain in her right shoulder. She didn’t know where she got the courage to step forward and block the shot for Evan.
It hurts… It hurts so much.
Suzy thought to herself, ‘Am I going to die again? Can I be reborn again?’
Along with the pain, she gradually lost consciousness.
Evan placed Suzy in the passenger seat and quickly started the car to leave. He could vaguely see that Suzy’s hand was still stained with bright red blood.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw her pale face, and Evan’s eyes were full of hostility.
