Chapter 295 Unexpected Incident
As the three of them stepped out of the train station’s waiting room, Abigail and Analise debated whether to have lunch or visit the hospital first.
The train station in Capitalis was bustling with people. One could see people walking to-and-fro, rushing about like bees,
“Let’s go to the hospital for a check-up and then have lunch at a restaurant near the hospital.” Alfie decided on their behalf when it became clear that the two women weren’t about to come to a decision anytime soon.
Abigail looked at Analise, who was about to speak. Before she could say anything, Alfie suddenly shouted, “Watch out!”
Before they realized what was happening, he had already shoved them aside.
He was quite strong. Plus, he hadn’t held back his strength while pushing them out of harm’s way. So, his actions made Abigail stagger a few steps backward. When she finally regained her balance, she immediately helped Analise, who had also taken a stumble.
“Go!” Alfie screamed at them, his voice tinged with pain.
A man was standing before Alfie and had Alfie by the collar. As Abigail was about to speak, the man’s hand moved, and a bloodstained fruit knife appeared in her field of vision.
“Ah!” Analise was so frightened that she let out a shriek and took a couple of steps back in terror.
“Run!” There was no disguising the agony in Alfie’s tone this time.
The man struggled to push Alfie away. Nonetheless, his gaze remained fixed on Abigail and Analise while he was doing so. However, he couldn’t harm them because Alfie was tightly gripping. onto his collar.
Abigail retreated a couple of steps and screamed, “Help!”
Her shout drew the attention of many passersby at the train station.
There was already quite a bit of blood on the ground between Alfie and the man.
“Ah! Help! Someone is trying to kill people!” A woman suddenly screeched, causing chaos in the
train station.
“Let go!” The man’s eyes were bloodshot, and he was trying to push Alfie away. When that didn’t work, he tried to stab Alfie with the fruit knife again.
Abigail took off her bag and swung it fiercely at the man’s head. Her hands were trembling, but
she couldn’t afford to let her guard down. So, she gave it her all.
The moment the man was struck by her bag, Alfie released him.
The man staggered back as he was hit by her bag. At that moment, a burly middle-aged man approached from behind and used his arm to lock the man’s neck. Then, he didn’t even hesitate for a second as he twisted the man’s wrist and forced the assailant to drop the fruit knife to the ground.
Abigail breathed a huge sigh of relief, turned around, and rushed to Alfie’s side.
Alfie lay on the ground while clutching his bleeding abdomen. He was experiencing minor convulsions.
“I’ll take you to the hospital… Grandma, call 911! Quick! Call 911!” Abigail shouted at Analise. Her eyes were red.
Análise snapped out of her daze and hastily whisked out her phone.
The whole train station was in utter chaos.
Alfie lay on the ground weakly, and Abigail carefully placed his head in her lap. Tears streamed down her face.
