You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 1744

Chapter 1744: You Actually Took the Bullet for Him

Felix stumbled back a few steps as the bullet grazed past him from behind, barely missing him.

But!

He was startled, cold sweat drenching his body. Vicki was behind him! He quickly turned around, both shocked and fearful. Sure enough, Vicki was standing not far behind him.

Vicki was dressed in a black leather jacket, with tight black pants below, accentuating her perfectly proportioned figure. At this moment, she had one arm crossed over her chest, holding a gun in her right hand, pointing directly at Cloud. She stood firm, seemingly without any abnormalities at first glance.

Upon closer inspection, she seemed to be gritting her teeth, with beads of sweat forming on her forehead.

Felix hurriedly ran towards Vicki, concerned, and asked, "Are you okay? I heard two gunshots just now, and I only heard one hitting the ground. Did the other one hit you?"

Vicki frowned, ignoring Felix's words, and instead, stared directly at Cloud.

She coldly said, "I've said it before, the incident with the Saunders family has nothing to do with Felix. If you want revenge, don't mistake the person!"

Cloud raised his hand, signaling his subordinates around him to stop attacking.

The surrounding subordinates reluctantly put down their guns. Vicki appeared and pointed her gun at Cloud. They couldn't afford to provoke her; everyone knew her skills in combat.

Vicki turned her head slightly and caught a glimpse of a trace of blood on Felix's lips. She frowned and reached out, gently wiping away the bloodstain from his lips. She asked, "Are you hurt? Does it hurt?"

Felix shook his head. It was just a minor injury. How could he feel pain? He wasn't delicate or fragile. He was a man. But her concern warmed his heart. She still cared about him after all.

Felix reached out his arm, wanting to embrace Vicki in his arms. Besides declaring his sovereignty, he missed her too much. After not seeing her for so many days, he was almost going crazy. Regardless of the dangerous environment around them and whoever might be watching, he just wanted to feel her real presence.

However, his pulling motion caused Vicki to let out a low cry involuntarily.

Immediately, Vicki furrowed her brows, bit her lower lip, and beads of sweat the size of soybeans rolled down.

Felix's heart sank, and as he looked at her, he noticed that her complexion had changed, turning pale with a hint of blue.

Vicki was someone with an extremely high pain tolerance, but now she couldn't bear it any longer. As Felix hugged her, she weakened in his arms, relying on him to alleviate her pain.

Felix held Vicki tightly, supporting her. He felt that something was wrong with her, and upon careful inspection, he noticed a tear in the sleeve of her left arm. It was difficult to discern because of the black leather jacket, but now, up close, he clearly saw the thick, sticky blood blending with the black color, making it hard to distinguish.

"You've been shot!" Felix exclaimed in shock, followed by a feeling of heartache and anger. "Damn it, you're bleeding! You got shot yourself, and you still asked me if I'm in pain?!"

She had indeed been shot. She had pushed him from behind earlier, and she ended up getting shot herself. How much pain must she be in?! She didn't even let out a groan. He felt like he was going crazy with heartache. He quickly supported her injured arm and held her tightly.

She had been shot, and yet she asked him if he was in pain?! His minor injury couldn't be compared to her being shot.

He felt as if his heart was breaking.
