Fortunately, these fools only knew how to block his way forward, leaving him an escape route!


    He stepped hard on the elerator, reversing the car swiftly, but the danger was far from over!


    Those ck-clothed people each held a pistol and aimed at their car, unleashing a hail of bullets once again.


    The car roof and windshield were shattered, leaving Cam Walker crouched on the passenger seat, her face turned pale with fear, and she didn’t dare to look up!


    Watching the ck sedan in close pursuit and the continuous rain of bullets, yton Howard’s expression hardened. He knew that merely evading was useless; these people were intent on killing him!


    But…


    He nced at the trembling person beside him. Such bloody scenes were routine for him, but for her, they were a storm of blood and violence. He couldn’t bear the thought of her getting hurt.


    Looking at the ck sedan outside the car window, Howard now had a silver pistol in his hand, took aim at the vehicle’s tires, and fired. The timing was impable, and in an instant, the speeding car flipped over sideways, its body tumbling into the air, before crashing heavily onto the roof of another car. The road’s center turned into a wreckage.


    Watching the two destroyed vehicles, Howard floored the elerator and sped away in another direction.


    He nced at Cam beside him, relieved that she was unharmed, and he let out a sigh of relief.


    “It’s over,” he assured her, slowing the car down, and reached over to pat the person still buried in the passenger seat, too scared to lift her head.


    Seeing no response from her, he thought she got scared stiff and called out again, “Cam?”


    Cam Walker remainedpletely still, not moving an inch.


    Howard’s expression turned grim, he mmed on the brakes, and a surge of unease rose from the depths of his heart.


    “Cam!?”


    Turning over the person on the passenger seat, he found her chest clothes soaked with fresh blood…


    Her face, white as snow, waspletely void of life, wrenching Howard’s heart with a gripping sensation of suffocation.


    “Cam!?”


    No matter how much he called, Cam didn’t move, showing no signs of life.


    Desperately, he pressed the elerator to the floor and raced toward the hospital!


    .


    Inside the hospital, Howard waited outside the resuscitation room, anxious. After over an hour of desperate efforts, the doctor told him that the person inside might not escape danger because that bullet had hit a vital spot.


    Hearing this news, the calm Howard could no longer contain himself. He suddenly grabbed the doctor’s cor, his bloodthirsty eyes turning blood-red as he angrily said to the doctor, “What do you mean she can’t escape danger!? It’s just a bullet. Have you really done everything to save her!?”


    Seeing his furious demeanor, the doctor felt somewhat helpless. He knew Howard.<fna689> ?????? ???? find?novel</fna689>


    This was Stuart Family’s exclusive hospital, and Mr. Howard was Young Lord’s most trusted assistant. He didn’t dare offend him and had to patiently exin.


    “Mr. Howard, Lady Walker was shot in the chest, and the bullet has nicked the edge of her heart. I can only–”


    “That’s not the heart! It didn’te close to the heart!” Howard roared before the doctor could finish his exnation!
