Trapped with a Doctor novel Chapter 93

Nancy was bowled over the moment she heard Stanley's name. Her heart was already in her throat. She followed Angela's finger and saw a serious-looking man wearing a handsome black uniform exclusive for armed police captains. It was Stanley!

Stanley had an unusually sensitive ears, so he noticed them quickly.

Angela knew Nancy had got a crush on Stanley, so she stood on her tiptoes and waved to him.

Stanley glanced at them, ascertained who Angela was with, and then immediately shifted his glance to something unimportant, both Angela and Nancy being witnesses to this rudeness.

Nancy felt physically ill. She held Angela's waving arm down and pinned it her thigh. "Angela.. What are you doing?"

Just then, Stanley seemed to have a change of heart and hurried suddenly towards them.

"He's coming this way!" Nancy fixed her eyes on Stanley, but didn't realize she would soon be in danger.

Immersed in Stanley's handsome face, she didn't notice a light flash by. Stanley leapt, raising his right leg. A penny-drop sound. He had skillfully kicked a dagger out of a man's hand. The knife was meant for Nancy.

A painful shout was heard. Nancy saw the sharp dagger which had barely missed her. Stanley kicked again, and the assailant lay on the ground helplessly. People around were frightened away when they saw the dagger. The man had gang tattoos plastered on his neck.

Not until then did Angela see the gangster. Nancy was scared to death when she had seen his face. She accidentally dropped the tea to the ground.

Just as Stanley was about to take out his handcuffs, the gangster slithered out of his grasp, and jumped up on his feet. More people showed up, rushing in all directions. It was hard to tell what was going on.

Stanley shouted to them. "Run!"

Angela knew the situation was out of control. She couldn't tell who was who in the commotion. So many people were running that they became indistinguishable. But through the churning crowds, masked men became noticeable. Angela kicked the shards of tea away and tried to drag Nancy up. She was in shock and couldn't run.

The gangsters prevented such escapes. Two masked men blocked their way.

Angela pushed Nancy behind her, confronted by the two men.

One of them swung a chain, while the other brandished a dagger. They rushed at Angela.

She held her breath.

Somehow she managed to defend herself. She wrestled with the man's dagger and managed hold him off. But the man with the chain was about to get close to Nancy.So Angela raised her right arm, and twisted the knife out of the man's hands. Now she had the knife. She exerted all her strength trying to stab the other man's arm, which, however, failed.

Seeing so many people fighting, Nancy finally came to her sense. She looked back and saw Stanley standing away.

As she tried to speak, her wrist was pulled by Angela and they began to sprint.

They were chased.

After running for three blocks, Angela was exhausted and she shouted loud. "Leave us alone! I'm so... exhausted!"

"Go! Keep chasing... It's not a person we chase, it's ten million dollars!" They kept hearing this sound coming from behind them ceaselessly.

Ten million? They rounded a corner, and Nancy slipped. Angela glanced at Nancy and saw her pale face. "Nancy... Are you okay?"

Nancy didn't even have the strength to shake head. she said with a faint voice. "Angela.. You go first... Leave me alone..." Then, Nancy used up the last of her energy to shake off Angela's hand.

Two men closed in. Angela instinctively started to run, but looked back wildly. Nancy was breathing heavily on the ground. Angela ran back and saw the men holding daggers, about to bring their blades down on Nancy.
