Chapter 127 After hearing this threat for the third time, 1 los the proper functioning of my brain, there wasnât a chance in hell that I would back out now.
My destiny, my son was a few feet away from me, I just wanted to hug him and forget everything else. It was fortunate that Zoe was unscratched, our guess was right about Melodyâs extrinsic reason.
âWhat are your demands, Melody?â
As it was down to me or her, I faced her bravely looking straight into her eyes.
âDonât play innocent, Laura. You know very well why I kidnapped your snaeklet.â
She scoffed, challenging us.
âI donât know how you found me, but bringing the police with you was your last mistake, Laura.
Now say goodbye to this world. You are the next to die after him.â
âNo!â
Melody grinned spitefully, and pulled the trigger, hitching my heart in my throat. I heard a chorus of masculine screams as Henry lunged at Melody to stop her, a shadow of another man flashed before my eyes. This commotion was followed by a bloodâ
curdling shriek, flipping my heart in my chest. It all happened so quickly that my brain couldnât register the actual occurrence, too frozen by shock.
The fountain of blood dying Leoâs white shirt stole the air from my lungs, I was startled to see him groaning in pain.
âLaura, take Zoe out!
Quick!â
My dumbfounded gaze fell at Henry, who shouted to garner my attention.
Chapur 127 âI have caught Melody. Call the police officers now.â
âOhl I moved quickly after coming back to the real world and picked up Zoe, who lost consciousness after seeing blood. Melody was wriggling in Henryâs strong arms, fighting hard to set herself free. My brother had already snatched her gun and threw it away.
âLet me go!
I will kill everyone!â
Her maddening screams alerted the police officers outside, they came in after arresting the goons. I swiftly requested Officer Smith.
âPlease call an ambulance. Leo is bleeding!â
I didnât know the reason for his gushing blood until the police officer examined his wound and gasped. He ordered his subordinates to take Leo to that hospital.
âWe have a GSW patient. Be quick!â
Gunshot wound?
Bloody hell!
Melody had a gun with a silencer, that was why I couldnât hear any sound of gunshot. Leo must have seen the gun and shielded us when Melody was intercepted by Henry.
As she was acting violently, the police officer arrested her and guided her to the prisonerâs van. I took my Zoe and ran towards our car.
âHenry, I want to go to the hospital. Leo is injured!â
Bright came with us, but he couldnât get a chance to in the crime scene as the foo started firing, the officers didnât let him out of the vehicle.
He helped me in the car and pulled me closer for a kiss, his thundering heartbeat was vibrating his chest muscles.
Thank God, you are safe, Laurac Resting his forehead over mine, he took deep breaths, feeling my warmth with his hands.
âMelody has hired trained shooters for kidnapping Laura. For a moment, I thought that we would never see each other again.â
âCome on, Bright. Knock it offâ
Henry let out a disapproving grunt, remarking rudely.
âYou didnât even dare to step out of the car and cared only for your own life. So, there is no need to act clingy.
I am telling you, Laura, Bright isnât a good choice for you.â
Well, Henry said this when I married Leo, so I ignored it as his habitual warning and asked him to drive faster.
âI am not a little girl anymore, brother. Bright is the one for me. He doesnât need to be a superhero to prove his sincere love.
I trust him!â
Henry only glared at me through the back view mirror for the rest of the journey. Leo had left the keys in the ignition, which helped us to follow the police van.
Zoe fainted because of fear and weakness, so the ER doctors promptly attended us. The pediatrician was on duty despite the day off.
âZoe is in good hands, Miss Laura. We will take it from here.â
He examined Zoe thoroughly and administered Vs and medicines. The nurse assured me.
âDonât worry, Miss Laura. Zoe will naturally wake up after a good nightâs sleep. Then we will evaluate his mental condition and discharge him.â
As Zoe didnât have any physical wounds, his swift recovery calmed my soul. I thanked God for blessing us. Meanwhile, Leoâs assistant, James, arrived at the scene, his panicked gaze was looking for his boss.
