Love You Like I Used To Forget It (Millie Bridge) novel Chapter 500

Since Firusted Irvin would have no intentions of harming me, I hadn’t brought any bodyguards along when I left with him. 1 really regretted my decision as I watched people pour out of the cars in waves.

The emergency alert button I had on me came with a built–in GPS. Once pressed, my bodyguards would Instantly receive the distress signal and rush over. However, even at their fastest, it would take them at least 20 minutes to get here from my home.

Irvin and I were completely surrounded. Looking at the number of people, I knew there were too many for Irvin to take on, regardless of how good he was in a fight.

Irvin’s gaze instantly darkened as he took in the approaching attackers from beside me. Instinctively, he stepped in front of me and shielded me with his body.

“Don’t be afraid, babe!” he said.

He was protecting me just like always, but I still couldn’t help feeling something was off. But before I could dwell on it, the people who had surrounded us attacked him.

Irvin was a good fighter, but no matter how skilled he was, he couldn’t withstand fighting this many people alone.

He soon started losing ground. Still, he continued to protect me with everything he had. He didn’t give them a chance to lay even a finger on me.

“Emi, look out!” Irvin shouted and dove toward me. He used his large frame to shield me.

A split second later, someone struck him on the head with a metal rod. Irvin collapsed to the ground and lay motionless as blood instantly streamed down his face.

I stood there, frozen in shock as I stared at him lying in a pool of blood. But even in that dazed state, I still instinctively fought back when someone approached me.

But that person had sprinkled something unknown on me. I very quickly lost all strength and couldn’t even counterattack properly.

Seconds later, the world around me went black, and I passed out.

William and I were in a marriage of convenience and didn’t really exchange sweet words or romantic gestures. Even so, we still video called each other every night and would talk about work or other things.

That night, William called me as usual. However, I didn’t answer. And when he tried to call my phone, it was turned off.
