Chapter 341



A piercing scream then shattered the tense silence. Blood blossomed along Kylee’s left arm, where the blade had cut deep, leaving a crimson trail in its wake. The blood poured out without stopping.

The sight of the red blood was shocking, enough to make anyone’s heart race with fear. Kylee’s face drained of color as the pain set in. She pressed her hand tightly against her wound, but blood continued to seep between her fingers.

“Kylee!” Mollie rushed to her side, her voice filled with concern.

The thug, clearly shocked that he had actually hurt someone, froze in place, his mind struggling to process the situation. After a moment, his expression changed, and he turned, trying to flee the scene.

But just as he turned, a figure emerged out of nowhere and kicked him hard in the chest. The force of the kick sent him crashing to the ground, writhing in pain from the impact.

A man in black quickly approached Mollie, bowing his head slightly. “Mrs. Thomas, I’m sorry that I am late.” He was one of Mollie’s personal bodyguards.

“You’re right on time,” Mollie said, her voice sharp. “Get this guy to the police station now!”

“Understood, Mrs. Thomas,” the bodyguard replied.

Just then, another bodyguard appeared. In a few quick motions, he subdued the thug with ease and swiftly took him away.

As Kylee watched this, her expression changed slightly. For a moment, panic flickered across her face, and unease filled her eyes.

“Kylee, are you alright? Let me help you get to the hospital,” Mollie’s voice snapped Kylee out of her thoughts.

Kylee looked at Mollie, her face pale from the loss of blood. She shook her head weakly. “I’m… okay…”

“Come on, I’ll help you get there.” Mollie helped Kylee up and headed toward the hospital, with the same bodyguard from before accompanying them.

Kylee’s wound was deep, needing more than ten stitches to close the gash. When Mollie saw Kylee’s arm wrapped in bandages, a wave of emotions hit her.

Mollie gazed at Kylee with appreciation, her voice soft. “I can’t thank you enough, Kylee. If you hadn’t been there, I don’t know what would’ve happened to me.” Mollie’s tone softened, her words growing warmer toward Kylee.

As she spoke, a thought crossed her mind, and she asked with curiosity, “By the way, Kylee, what brought you there today?”

Kylee pressed her lips together for a moment and replied, “I have a friend who works around there, so I came by to visit her. I saw you heading into that alley and figured I’d say hi since I know how well you look out for my sister. But I never expected to find you in danger like that.”

Mollie nodded, comprehension dawning on her. “Ah, I get it now.”

Just as she finished speaking…

“Mollie!” Belinda appeared, clearly out of breath.

Belinda was panting when she finally reached Mollie. She had clearly run all the way here.

“Mollie, are you alright? Did you get hurt?” Belinda asked with concern in her eyes.

“I’m okay, really. There’s nothing for you to worry about,” Mollie quickly reassured Belinda.
