When Hunter walked into the ward, Emily was still asleep.
The doctor had examined her and cleaned her wounds. Now she was sedated with intravenous use of sedative drugs.
She would probably have to sleep at least until evening.
And now, it’s still not at dawn …
Hunter sat beside her bed and held her hand.
Her hand was so soft and delicate.
He was painful as he gently wrapped his hands around her. The scenes of last night came back to his mind.
Every time he thought of it, he was excruciated.
At that time, he was completely out of control, but he still had memories.
The girl was under him, from the fear to despair. Finally, she completely fainted.
Her injuries were even more severe than he had imagined.
At this moment, she was lying on the hospital bed, pale and tired.
He didn’t know how long he had been sitting beside the hospital bed. Until Henry arrived, he still sat quietly, staring at Emily, whose eyes had always been tightly shut.
Before Henry entered, he had already asked Liam what happened.
The situation was much worse than he had expected.
What deep and cureless wound he had already given.
There were still a few scratches on her neck. He could foresee that they would definitely be bloody at that time.
She suffered cuts and abrasions to the face.
It was estimated that she were so badly injured all over.
Henry clenched his fists tightly. If Hunter had not been so sorry for her, he could not guarantee that he would tear this murderer apart.
“Look at her.” Hunter suddenly stood up and was about to leave.
“Where are you going?” He should have left for Afghanistan tomorrow.
Henry panicked and said, “You want to go ahead of time?”
Hunter didn’t say anything and went straight.
Henry chased after him. This was not a good place to speak. He tried his best to lower the voice.
“We’ve already arranged the routes. If you change the plan, those routes may not be safe.”
“There’s no need for you to go.” Hunter said coldly.
Henry was astonished for a moment, and he immediately ran as fast as he could to catch up with him.
“What do you mean?” Henry thought they would go together.
“She needs someone to accompany her …”
“Bullshit! There are so many people willing to accompany her. She doesn’t need me!”
Hunter was about to leave, but Henry was in the way.
He couldn’t stop Hunter, so he could only retreat.
“I won’t accompany her. If you want to be with her, you can stay here by yourself. I want to go with you!”
Hunter was indifferent. Henry was anxious. If Hunter had made up his mind, he would have no chance to catch up with him.
“Boss!” Finally, Henry relented, “No, if you want to bring it forward, I will immediately ask someone to re-plan. We will leave tomorrow, and it would be OK tonight!”
But his aim was to go with Hunter!
After all, Afghanistan was still too dangerous.
Hunter finally stopped and stared at him.
“Johnny will go with me. If you leave, it would arouse suspicion.”
“What do you want to do?” Could it be that he wanted “Hunter” to stay in Bentson City?
“Peter will know what to do.”
