Flora and Henrik were caught off guard for a moment; it was clear that the "he" Karter referred to was Karter himself.
Raul went on, "If he hadn't pushed me away, that bullet would have been mine."
That bullet was meant for him, but Karter stepped in. Raul's emotions were a tangled mess. He never thought that in such a dire moment, Bryce would be the one standing in front of him.
