Me And My Billionaire Husband (Aurora and Heath) novel Chapter 227

Chapter 227

As William led the way, Heath and Eamon exchanged glances and followed. Just as they opened the door of the private room, someone rushed up to William, “Boss, our goods have been stolen!”

William’s face darkened. As he reached for his gun, Heath already had his gun at the back of William’s head, “Where is my person?”

Eamon smiled, “Mr. William, I’d advise you not to move. Mr. Fairbank’s bullets are quite painful.”

Slowly, William raised his hands, and Eamon removed the gun from his waist, “Lead the way. We’ll let you go once we’re outside.”

In the hallway, several men, armed and pointing their guns at Heath and Eamon, hesitated to act rashly.

Heath, gripping William, with Eamon covering him, made their way towards the exit.

Reaching the stairway, Heath tapped William’s head with his gun, demanding, “Where is she?”

William shook his head, “I don’t know…”

Heath’s face was stern with worry. Where had that damn blonde woman taken Aurora?

William, thinking he still held some leverage, suggested with a smirk, “Mr. Fairbank, only the blonde knows where the lady is. How about you let me go, and I’ll help you find her?”

“Really?” Heath’s laugh was cold. He glanced at Eamon, who raised his gun and fired. A bullet from a sniper across the street hit a man in

the hallway in the thigh.

William was shocked. He thought Heath and Eamon were just business partners in disagreement, not realizing they had a sniper!

Eamon spoke, “William, I’d advise against any tricks. Otherwise, everyone in this hallway is going down.”

William’s guards, initially confident, panicked realizing Heath and Eamon had a sniper, and nobody knew how many snipers there were or who the next target might be.

Eamon announced, “Nobody move! We only want William. Drop your weapons, and I assure your safety!”

The atmosphere in the hallway froze; nobody moved or dropped their weapons.

Although Eamon had sent the address to Aurora, he never anticipated her getting hurt. His priority was to get Heath out, and Aurora was secondary to him.

But they couldn’t wait any longer for Aurora, not knowing if William had more accomplices.

The ground floor had been cleared. Heath, dragging William, hesitated at the door, hoping for Aurora’s appearance. Eamon urged, “Heath, we can’t wait any longer!”

After making her call, Aurora, hearing the gunshot in the bar, rushed to the entrance, driven by the fear for Heath’s safety,

Reaching the entrance, she saw two men aiming at Heath and Eamon from the street.

Without a second thought, Aurora took a shot at one of them. The one aiming at Eamon was hit, but the other, targeting Heath, fired. His shot went astray as he was jostled by his falling comrade and hit Aurora in her right shoulder.

The impact threw Aurora backward into Heath, a familiar, piercing pain surging through her. Her grip loosened, and the gun fell to the ground.

Clutching her shoulder, Aurora collapsed, the sound of police sirens approaching. The people in the bar scattered. Heath handed William to Eamon and knelt, cradling Aurora.

Blood seeped through his fingers from her wound. Heath’s voice trembled, “Rory… Rory…”

Aurora, clutching his shirt, managed a weak smile, “It’s okay… I’m okay…”

Her previous life had seen worse injuries, and she wasn’t afraid. But Aurora’s body wasn’t as resilient as Olivia’s. Rapid blood loss made her dizzy.

Her shirt, used to gag the blonde, left her in just a pink bra, now stained with blood, her pale skin stark against the red, a shocking sight.

Eamon’s men arrived. Heath scooped her up into the car, comforting, “It’s okay, you’ll be fine.”

Aurora smiled faintly and nodded before losing consciousness, pale and lifeless in Heath’s arms.
