Even in Darkness She Chose to Rise (Tatiana and Jasper) novel Chapter 328

Chapter 328 I’m Late

“…Jasper…”

“You’re okay. That’s wonderful.”

He held her forcefully, as if trying to merge her into his very bones and blood.

“Mommy!”

Hubert ran over, saw the scene, and froze. His tone was full of disbelief. “Daddy?”

Finished

Jasper released her and turned to Hubert, the corners of his eyes red. “Hubert, do you not recognize Daddy?”

Hubert, who had matured so much these past few days and hadn’t cried once, felt his eyes instantly turn red, and he burst out wailing.

“Daddy! Daddy, waaah…”

He reached out and swept the little boy into his arms as he rushed forward.

“Why did you take so long? Daddy, you came too late, waaah, you’re late…”

Hubert’s sobs wouldn’t stop, his cries filled with pent–up grievance.

“I’m sorry, I’m late.”

He soothed him in a low voice, but suddenly realized something was wrong. He looked around. Besides a timid, uneasy boy holding a cloth bag, someone was missing.

A sudden unease surged in his heart.

“Where’s Ann? Where is Ann?”

Tatiana snapped back from the shock, grabbing Jasper’s wrist. “Ann, Ann is in that car! We have to chase them! x2677! That black car that charged through!”

His expression changed. With no time for questions, he swept her up. “Get in the car!”

The urgent priority was to catch the black car and save Ann!

They got into Jasper’s SUV. Tatiana looked back and added, “Bring him, too!”

A bodyguard understood and pushed Norn into another car.

Dozens of vehicles immediately set off in pursuit.

Finished:

Inside the car, Tatiana finally had time to briefly explain what they had been through these past few days.

But even those few words conveyed the intense danger.

If any single step had gone wrong, all of them would have died here.

A wave of lingering fear washed over Jasper. He gripped her hand tightly. “I was too late. I’m sorry.”

She tried to pull her hand away, but his grip was too tight, so she gave up.

“It doesn’t matter. Let’s save Ann first.”

Jasper had brought many local factions under his control these past few days, which proved useful now. He had them investigate the car’s origin.

Disappointingly, the car had no registration.

It was an untraceable car with fake plates.

Its origin was unknown.

But judging from the extent of its modifications, the person behind this was not a nobody.

The black car sped off road c23 and turned onto another road with no surveillance.

They… had lost it.

The fragile thread of strength Tatiana had been clinging to couldn’t withstand this news. She spat out a large mouthful of blood, her vision went black, and she fainted.

“Tatiana!”

When she woke again, she was in a hospital.

A rudimentary hospital, where even the ceiling was mottled.

She opened her eyes, her vision slowly clearing. Jasper’s worried voice reached her ears. “Are you okay?”

She spoke hoarsely, “Ann…”

“I’m looking. There will be news soon. I promise you, I will bring Ann back.”

A single tear slid from the corner of her eye.

“Ann…”

Jasper silently held her hand, the towering rage in his heart growing thicker.

“Is Mommy awake?”

Finished

Hubert slipped in quietly and pressed himself obediently against his mommy’s side, his big eyes filled with worry. “Mommy, do you still feel bad?”

She forced herself to rally. “I’m fine, don’t worry.”

She had already been having a severe allergic reaction that day, and the extreme emotional distress on top of it had caused her to pass out.

Fortunately, Jasper had brought a doctor with him just in case. Otherwise, with the backward medical facilities here, Tatiana would not have been saved.

Having almost lost her twice in a row, no one could know the depth of the lingering fear he felt.

Even though he was frantic with worry, Jasper forced Tatiana to stay in the hospital for half a day, until the redness and swelling on her face had completely subsided.

He looked at her recovered face and reached out to touch it lightly. “You’re really cruel to yourself. Didn’t you know a severe allergic reaction can be fatal?”

Tatiana was a bit embarrassed. “At the time, I thought it was Ashton’s men, so…”

Speaking of this, she still felt a bit chagrined.

It turned out she had narrowly missed him several times before.

She was running all over the world, and he was chasing her all over the world. The most recent time, they were separated by just one street.

“Right, who kidnapped us anyway?”
