Chapter 770 Nicholas’ Injury
Everyone reflexively looked up, and lo and behold, a spotlight that was initially fixed onto the ceiling suddenly loosened and dropped.
Worst of all, Tessa happened to be standing right below it.
Everyone instantly turned apprehensive, for the injury would be life-threatening if the spotlight landed on them.
At that, everyone screamed.
“Oh God, everyone move!”
“Anyone who gets hit will be dead meat.”
“Tessa, get away!”
The faint-hearted ones dared not even look, covering their eyes with their hands.
Meanwhile, Mona was beside herself with fear when she saw that Tessa was still standing right below the falling spotlight. “Tessa, get away from there!” she screamed.
Tessa heard her, but her mind had gone blank then. She was petrified, only watching the spotlight fall toward her.
It happened all too fast.
Just when the spotlight was only inches away from Tessa, Nicholas showed up.
“Tessa!” His eyes widened in fear as he dashed toward Tessa, running the fastest he had ever run, and he pulled the petrified young woman into his arms to shield her from harm’s way.
Even so, he still didn’t manage to evade it entirely, for the falling spotlight landed on his shoulder.
Nicholas’ muffled groan and glass breaking traveled to Tessa’s ears. However, her brain was still lagging as it took some time to process what was happening. Once she came to herself, she turned around only to find her beloved pale-faced and bleeding on the shoulder. It was a gruesome sight. “Nicholas…”
“Thank goodness you’re okay.” He looked feebly at Tessa and relieved she was okay.
However, dizziness hit him just as he was about to comfort her, and he blacked out.
Tessa freaked out when Nicholas suddenly passed out and leaned toward her. “Nicholas, open your eyes, Nicholas!” she screamed in horror while her tears blurred her vision, but no matter how she shouted, the man in her arms gave no response.
