Dumped My Cheating Ex. Now I'm Sleeping Next to a Billionaire CEO novel Chapter 1339

No! A sudden, incredibly hoarse, and broken roar erupted from the wheelchair. It carried the desperate ferocity of a mother protecting her young. Emmy, who had been sitting there like a living corpse for days, struggled violently as her heavy eyelids twitched. Finally, she managed to force them open just a sliver. Her lips trembled as she gathered every ounce of her depleted strength to force out a weak plea.

"No... you cannot."

Lorelei grew even more agitated and was just about to escalate her taunts when a chaotic flurry of footsteps erupted outside. Before she could react, a sudden burst of gunfire shattered the tranquility of Moonlight Bay. The security personnel stationed outside shouted warnings as they retreated into the courtyard. Two blood soaked bodyguards stumbled into the corridor, dragging a critically injured comrade between them.

"Dr. Hall! Someone has been shot!"

Lorelei's triumphant expression instantly froze as she rushed over to check the man's injuries. "What happened?"

One of the bodyguards, his face blackened by gunpowder, panted heavily as he delivered the urgent report. "A group of heavily armed terrorists suddenly showed up! Their firepower is overwhelming. They did not even issue a warning before they just started spraying bullets at the perimeter guards! Thank God the security robots outside the courtyard reacted quickly and took down the front line, but they brought heavy artillery. We have already taken a lot of casualties!"

Lorelei's brows twisted into a tight knot. She knew Moonlight Bay had long been fortified into an impenetrable fortress. While minor disturbances happened occasionally, the perimeter security had always handled them quietly. She never imagined a group of terrorists would dare to attack them directly with heavy weaponry.
