Chapter 279 

Jackson’s gaze hardened as he gestured for Gilda to stay put 

He then approached the driver’s seat and saw a woman in a hospital gown, frail and bleeding from the head, slumped over the wheel

Only when Jackson pushed her did he see her face clearly. It’s her.” 

Gilda, too, recognized the driver

It was Emily

How did she get out? Did she just?A daring suspicion crossed her mind. Was she trying to kill me?Gilda murmured, realization dawning on her

This was no accident but a possible murder attempt

Was Emily trying to end her life

Gilda was seized with fear, realizing how close she had come to death

If Jackson hadn’t been there to push her away and protect her, she might have died

Gilda didn’t dare to continue that thought, overwhelmed by the fear of what could have happened

Jackson, understanding the gravity of the situation, stepped forward to shield her, comforting her with his presence. It’s okay, I’m here.” 

In that moment, Gilda found solace in his assurance 

Police, firefighters, and paramedics soon arrived at the scene, and a perimeter was established

Since the incident occurred at Glory Corporation, Gilda, as a responsible party, was taken to the police station for a statement, with Jackson accompanying her throughout

After giving their statements, Gilda noticed Jackson’s arm was bleeding. She grabbed his arm, concerned. Jackson, you’re hurt!?” 

Jackson tried to downplay it. It’s nothing, just a scratch.” 

Gilda insisted. That’s not a minor injury. You’ve lost a large patch of skin. Come on, I’m taking you to the hospital.” 

Jackson wanted to refuse, but seeing Gilda’s worried expression warmed his heart

He allowed her to lead him to the hospital

Doctor, please treat his wound,” Gilda requested

The doctor adjusted his glasses, taken aback by the size of the wound, which wasn’t much bigger than a coin

Before he could speak, his eyes widened in surprise, thinking to himself, Isn’t him Jackson Harrington?‘ 

Alex was about to say something when Jackson signaled for silence

Alex, catching on and noticing Gilda’s anxious expression, guessed the situation and began treating the wound

Your boyfriend’s injury seems quite severe,the doctor commented, playing along

Gilda, focused on Jackson, didn’t catch the oddity in the doctor’s remark, only urging, Doctor, please, treat him quickly.”
