The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1645

Chapter 1645

Bright red blood splattered instantly, unavoidably covering Bryson, who sat in the passenger seat. His eyes snapped to attention, and almost immediately, he reached out to push

Yasmine’s head down into the car..

Several bullets pierced through the car window one after the other, grazing Yasmine’s hair and embedding themselves into the window on the other side.

Had Bryson hesitated even a moment, Yasmine could have been killed on the spot!

Drivers on the main road exited their vehicles to investigate the situation ahead, only to witness this deadly spectacle.

Such blatant gunfire in broad daylight was uncommon in the country, let alone in this bustling city. The scene quickly spiraled out of control, with people on the streets ducking and running in panic. The chaotic scene forced the gunfire to cease.c2

Bryson was certain that the shots fired earlier were from a sniper hidden in the distance, because this was a main road, just a short distance ahead was an overpass, and the surrounding area was filled with moving vehicles. Plus, given the current traffic jam, if there was a sniper in a car, it could only be in the vehicles closest to them.

However, judging by the direction of the incoming bullets, it was easy to determine they were coming from the left. And all the cars on the left had their windows closed. Moreover, judging by the penetration power of the bullets, there was no way they were fired from close

range.

Someone was clearly plotting a murder, and they were clearly the targets.

Bryson kept his hand firmly on Yasmine, even after the gunshots ceased. He glanced at Yasmine and asked, “Are you okay, Miss?”

“I’m fine,” Yasmine replied, her face pale.

Bryson nodded and retrieved his phone from his pocket. “I’m going to call someone over right now.”

The driver was killed by the gunfire and slumped over due to the loss of weight.

A bullet had brutally penetrated his head, and from the gunshot wound, warm, red blood was still flowing out at an alarming rate. The surrounding skin and flesh had burst open, a ghastly sight.

Yasmine quickly closed her eyes. Her eyelashes were trembling violently. To witness a living person lose their life without any warning, to watch a vibrant life extinguished in front of her eyes, even with her strong mental fortitude, she found it hard to accept such a harsh reality.

She might have been able to navigate the world of business, but she had never dealt with matters of life and death.

“Miss, please calm down, and take care of yourself,” Bryson advised.

Yasmine’s eyes were still tightly shut, but she responded, “… Bryson, someone wants to kill

me.”

Bryson’s face hardened even more. “You’re overthinking, Miss.”

Yasmine shook her head. “The sudden power outage in the city on a weekday, caused traffic control systems to fail, and got us trapped here… all of these scenarios were part of their plan.”

Bryson, of course, had speculated this, but without evidence, he couldn’t make such assumptions. After all, his lady was part of the royal family, and the implications of this

incident were vast.

Actually, he could guess who wanted her dead.

“The citywide power outage, the entire city nearly paralyzed, including surveillance systems. They can act without any constraints. Considering the scope of this operation, I can’t think of a second person capable of such a feat…

Not just anyone with money could pull this off. There were very few people who were wealthy and had the connections to cut off the city’s power supply effortlessly.

The Harper family was currently being cornered by the Obsidian Corporation and had no time to deal with her. Other businesses harbored no grudge against her. So, the person in this

world who most wished for her death could probably be just one person.
