“It’s strange. Who would do this on an occasion like this?” Emmeline frowned.
“Is the lady really the target? If so, her enemy must be here, among the guests!” Abel exclaimed.
"But I don't think the target is her!” Emmeline shook her head. “Her daughter said she didn’t offend anyone.”
“Yeah.. It’s kinda strange. Luca already searched the whole villa but found nothing. I’ve called Inspector Charles, and he’ll be coming soon,” Abel continued.
“So what about Adrien’s party?” Emmeline asked.
“It’s okay. Just stick to the girl we chose just now. I think Lizbeth is good enough.”
“All right. I’m going upstairs now.” Emmeline turned around to look for Janie but she was not around.
"Where is Janie?" Emmeline asked.
Hearing that, Abel looked around too.
Right then, Janie was answering a call from Benjamin. Benjamin was mad when she handed him her resignation letter. That was why he called her.
The moment Abel spotted Janie, he noticed something from the corner of his eye.
Many years of training made him alert at once. He saw a gun pointing in his direction.
Immediately, Abel turned around and saw a muzzle was actually pointing at Emmeline.
“Emma!” Abel shouted and pushed Emmeline onto the floor.
Bang!
The bullet shot the staircase and a loud thud was heard.
“Assassin!” Adrien shouted. He was shocked.
The guests screamed and began to run for their lives. The whole living room was in chaos again.
The bodyguard shot again since he missed his target.
Emmeline glanced back. She saw the bodyguard who was hiding behind the pillar was about to pull the trigger again.
“No!” Emmeline yelled and quickly pounced on Abel who was standing in front of her.
The bullet hit Emmeline right on her chest. She spurted out a mouthful of blood instantly.
“Emma!” Abel bawled.
Emmeline felt the bullet penetrate her heart. Everything went black all of a sudden.
However, before Emmeline completely passed out, she stabbed a needle into the Divine acupoint on her wrist. Then, she fell into Abel’s arms and fainted.
“Emma! Please wake up…” Abel shrieked. His eyes turned red.
Nonetheless, Emmeline was lifeless, lying in Abel’s arms.
“Emma, please. Wake up!” Abel shouted madly.
“Emma!” Abal shoutad and pushad Emmalina onto tha floor.
Bang!
