Master of his heart (Max and Brielle) novel Chapter 330

Chapter 330 

Brielle’s brows furrowed sharply as she quickly bid farewell to Aubree and turned her attention. to Kenzo. “Kenzo, are we being followed?” 

Kenzo nodded, hastily securing all the windows. “Brielle, buckle up.” 

She felt the nerves kick in. Were they after them, or… 

Before she could finish her thought, the sound of gunfire pierced the air, shattering the rearview mirror, Kenzo jerked the steering wheel fiercely: his expression was as dark as a storm cloud. 

With only one mirror left, Kenzo glanced through it to see four or five cars that had seemingly come out of nowhere now tailing them. “Brielle, do you know how to handle a gun? There’s one under your seat. Load it and pull the trigger.” 

Brielle had aced her college shooting class, but it had been years since she’d touched a firearm. Without hesitation, she retrieved the gun from beneath her seat. As the car was about to make a sharp turn, she held her breath. 

Kenzo was about to advise her on when to shoot but instead saw her poke her head out during the turn, aiming directly at the driver of the pursuing car. The vehicle behind them veered out of control and plummeted off the cliff’s edge. 

Before Brielle could even celebrate, a massive truck loomed ahead. 

Pincer attack. The people behind them had no intention of letting them live! 

“Hold on!” Kenzo spun the wheel almost reflexively, hastily making the most advantageous choice. 

The car plunged down an embankment, crashing through several trees. Kenzo’s head struck the windshield, and blood instantly clouded his vision. 

“Kenzo!” Brielle was unharmed but dizzy. She quickly opened the car door, intending to unbuckle him. 

But Kenzo shook his head, his tone eerily calm, “Have you had any accidents lately?” 

Brielle recalled the attack she’d experienced with Patrick and nodded. 

Kenzo pursed his lips. “They’re after you, and they want you dead. Go on ahead.” 

How could Brielle leave at such a moment? If she left, would Kenzo even survive? Out here in the wilderness, with his leg injured, infection could lead to fever and unconsciousness. 

“Brielle, there’s a village close by. Find someone there to come for me. If you stay, we’re both as good as dead.” 

After a moment of panic, Brielle spotted searchers already nearby. “Kenzo, at least let me get you out.”

Kenzo chuckled softly, sighing. “My leg’s injured.” 

“I’ll help you hide somewhere else, then go for help.” 

Kenzo nodded, gritting his teeth as he pulled the debris from his leg. Brielle’s heart skipped a beat. She tore a piece of cloth from her clothing and hastily bandaged his wound. 

The voices of their pursuers grew nearer. She hid Kenzo behind a large tree, camouflaging him with branches and leaves. 

Both of them moving together was out of the question. Kenzo’s leg was severely injured, and she couldn’t carry him far. The likely outcome would be both of them dying here. 

“Kenzo, wait for me here.” 

Kenzo slowly nodded, sweat beading on his brow from the pain. 

Brielle took a deep breath and started running towards the village Kenzo mentioned. She also tried to use her phone to contact the outside world, but after their fall, there was no signal. She stumbled down a small slope, tumbling to a creek’s edge. 

Kenzo was right; they were after her. As long as she remained alive, they would keep pursuing her and ignore Kenzo. Only if she left would Kenzo be safe. 

She pushed herself up and ran another thousand meters before collapsing from exhaustion. Her hands and knees were scraped and bleeding.
