Vincent's eyes flashed with sharpness as he flipped Rosalie to the ground, narrowly dodging the bullet.
He quickly rose from the ground and rushed toward the shooter. He then kicked him to the ground and grabbed a gun.
Bang, bang, bang!
The sound of gunfire filled the air until the magazine was empty and all the attackers lay on the ground, silent.
Vincent stood with the gun in hand, his tall figure swaying unsteadily. Blood churned inside him and continuously flowed out.
Just as he was about to collapse, Rosalie rushed over and caught him in her arms.
Her trembling hands pressed against the gunshot wound, but with the injuries on both his shoulder and back, she couldn't stop the bleeding. She was at a loss, unsure of what to do.
"Why worry? I won't die." A mocking smile appeared on Vincent's face. "Looks like you'll have to pay me double, or I'll have to kill you right now."
Hearing his harsh words, Rosalie didn't get angry. She didn't care about what he said, only what he had done. He had shielded her from the bullets with his life—that was the undeniable truth.
"Whatever you want, I'll give it to you, but you have to stay alive to take the money. I'll take you to the hospital now. Let's go."
She absolutely couldn't let this man die.
Rosalie, though frail, struggled to help the man up. She could no longer drive her car as the tires were damaged.
"I'll call for an ambulance. Wait here for a moment while I get my phone from the car."
Just as Rosalie was about to leave, Vincent grabbed her wrist. "Not the hospital. The doctors will call the police."
He had a gunshot wound, and by law, doctors were required to report such cases, which would lead to trouble.
Rosalie squatted beside him, looking at him seriously. This Vincent was certainly not an ordinary person. He was likely involved in some unspeakable matters.
However, Rosalie didn't think he was an evil man. Otherwise, he wouldn't have saved her.
"So what now? Do you have any trustworthy friends?"
Comments
The readers' comments on the novel: Chasing My Pregnant Wife (Rosalie and Theodore)
Unrealistic. What a comedy. If Sebastian and Rosalie are cousins, their families must have already prevented them to be together abroad. Isn't it bizarre that nobody is doing something to let them know of their family relationship? And pls stop putting Aurora in a high pedestal. Your readers want Rosalie to be genuinely happy,free of stupid misunderstanding. Thank you....
Another garbled story with lots of gibberish. Absolute rubbish. I got to chapter 26 and can't anymore...
Too many people involve.. sigh~ this is like the most angst novel i've read.....
I just wish one thing...that the writer will not bring too many unnecessary and unrealistic twists,too many misunderstanding,miscommunication that gives the reader the hint not to continue with the novel. In the long run, We lost our interest in this kind of unending plot....
Thanks for the update !...
