Divorced but Delighted novel Chapter 98

Chapter 98 Crime of Intentional Injury

Aleah’s movements were so fast that it caught everyone off guard.

It wasn’t just Cierra who could not react in time. Even Coby, who was closest to her, didn’t react in time. He subconsciously pulled Cierra away.

Even though his movements were swift, the blade still swept past his arm and left a wound.

The guests screamed and retreated one after another.

Some people stepped forward against the crowd. When Aleah raised her knife again and wanted to stab Cierra again, Draven and William Barton stood up at the same time and tried to stop her. A

Draven was closer and grabbed Aleah’s wrist before William could make a movement,

“Aleah, calm down!” Draven said sternly.

However, when people went crazy, they couldn’t control themselves at all. In the chaos, the knife cut through Draven’s palm.

The blood was spreading. At the same time, Aleah stopped and looked at his hand in disbelief.

With a crash, the knife fell from Aleah’s hand, and the chaos instantly quieted down.

Coby, who was tightly protecting Cierra, also relaxed and loosened Cierra a little.

William came over and asked worriedly, “Are you all right?”

Cierra shook her head.

Before she could react, she was pressed down in Coby’s arms, and all she could hear was screams. Only then did she manage to stand firmly.

When she saw the scar on Coby’s arm clearly, she tensed up.

“Coby, you…”

The gushing blood quickly dyed Coby Barton’s white shirt red. The blood fell through the gaps between his fingers and slowly fell to the ground.

Cierra’s eyes also seemed to be dyed red by this blood, wet in tears.

“I’m fine. Don’t worry.”

Coby was calmed and comforted her in a gentle voice.

In fact, he was fine. Although the knife was sharp, he dodged it and blocked Aleah’s attack. In addition, the cloth was protecting him, so the cut was not deep.

It was just that the blood that flowed out had dyed his clothes red, so it looked rather ferocious and

terrifying.

However, in comparison, Draven was obviously more seriously injured.

He glanced at Draven and saw that his hand was also bleeding profusely, and the blood was even falling a little faster.

In contrast to the fact that no one asked about Draven, there were more and more people surrounding Coby and worried about him.

Coby laughed out loud. “Cierra, I’m really fine. I’ll take care of it later. Don’t worry, okay?”

Cierra’s blank brain also reacted.

She grabbed William’s arm with tearful eyes and said in a nasal voice, “William, take Coby to the hospital. I’ll deal with the rest.”

William Barton’s expression was similarly unhappy.

From the fake affection of the Boyle family to Aleah’s sophistry, there were a few times when he couldn’t bear it and wanted to stand up for Cierra. However, they had agreed to let Cierra deal with it by herself, so he stood by and watched like Coby.

He didn’t expect Aleah to be so out of control!

He said in an unfriendly tone, “You think I can leave you here alone?”

It was obvious that the knife was aimed at her, but it was blocked by Coby.

William knew that his tone was a little harsh. He rubbed his eyebrows and suddenly pulled out a person behind him.

He turned around and suppressed his emotions to ease his tone. “Ms. Navarro, can you please send Coby to the hospital and treat his wound?”

Before Lydia could come to her senses, she nodded and said, “Okay, I’ll go now.”

William heaved a sigh of relief and took out his car key. “Thank you.”

“Boss, you’re welcome. It’s no trouble at all.”

Lydia carefully took the car key from his palm. Her mind was full of the idea that she was going to the hospital with the famous actor.

“Amazing!” she thought.

It was something that she would never dare to dream of.

In the past, she had fantasized more than once about being in the same movie with him. Now, could It be considered as a kind of dream come true?
