Chasing The Fierce Heiress

Shocked, Isaac slammed on the brakes and pulled over on the roadside.

Then he asked incredulously. “What do you mean Vanessa is pregnant with Joshua’s baby? What did Joshua say?”

“I don’t know.” Hazel looked down at her swollen fingers and said in a deep voice, “He said nothing.”

“Nothing…” Isaac frowned. It was not like Joshua.

Isaac couldn’t figure out what had happened for a few moments, he took time to ponder the situation before saying, “Hazel, I don’t think you should think too much. I’ve been friends with Joshua for years. Since he did not say that the baby in Vanessa’s stomach was his, that it mustn’t be his.”

Hazel’s lips moved. She wanted to say something but choked back her words in the end.

“How about this?” Isaac started the car again. “Instead of guessing randomly, you had better come with me and ask him face to face.”

“No.” Hazel felt a little nervous.

Joshua should have made it to the hospital with Vanessa. Would he be free to meet her?

“I’ll take you to him now… Huh?” He felt a little surprised.

“What’s wrong?” She asked.

“Nothing, it seems something is wrong with my car,” he said with his eyebrows raised. “Stay here, and I’ll go check.”

Despite what Isaac had said, Hazel opened the door and got out. He had the bonnet up and was looking around, she leaned in and said, “What’s wrong?”

“Let me see…” Isaac frowned. Suddenly, he raised his head in astonishment, two cars drove up and parked in front of Isaac’s car.

Several men got out of the cars and quickly surrounded them.

“Guys, what’s this about?” Isaac felt there was something wrong and kept Hazel behind him.

These people did not look very kind, they had the appearance of a gang.

“Nothing. Your girl is beautiful. Let us play with her. You can leave now,” the man taking the lead said ferociously.

Were these people after her? Hazel couldn’t help frowning.

Isaac’s car had just stopped when the men gathered around. It was clear that they were not passing by, but they had premeditated it.

“Who hired you?” Isaac said in a deep voice. “I’ll double the price!”

“Ha ha,” one of them sneered disrespectfully, “Money? It’s a pity we only have eyes for this woman…”

As he spoke, the man taking the lead stretched out his hand, intending to touch Hazel’s face frivolously.

Hazel’s face darkened, and she tilted her head to dodge it.

Isaac slapped his hand away angrily. “How dare you touch her?!”

Instead of getting angry, the rascal said with a sneer, “Hey! It’s not your girl, is it? Why are you protecting her? Our men outnumber you. Do you think you have any chance to defeat us if we really fight? I think you had better hand over this woman to us obediently. If we’re happy, perhaps we can give you a break!”

“Yes!” The rest of the men echoed his words.

Isaac’s face became even more unsightly. “Do you have to do that?”

“Ha ha ha,” the men pointed at him and laughed jeeringly, “You’re a wuss!”

“In that case…” Isaac suddenly sneered, he made a quick move and punched the thug in the face.

The other men were shocked as they watched Isaac, Hazel was also shocked. She knew Isaac wouldn’t leave her alone, but she didn’t think that Isaac would make a move so quickly.

But they were greatly outnumbered, she and Isaac were probably no match for these guys.

“Boys hit him!” The leading man covered his bruised face and shouted angrily.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

His men yelled as they rushed at Isaac, but before their fists touched Isaac’s face, a few cars stopped, and several bodyguards stepped out of the cars and began to fight with the gang.

Isaac stomped energetically towards the people in front of him as he sneered, saying, “Why didn’t you do your research before taking on the job? I am afraid of being killed, so I always travel with secret bodyguards.”

At the thought that these people would dare to flirt with Hazel in front of him, he was so annoyed that he hit the leader.

Hazel hid nearby. The bodyguards were obviously better at fighting than she was, and it was clear that the unkind men were apparently there for her. It would be better if she did not fight and expose herself.

The bodyguards gradually gained the upper hand. When the leader noticed they were at a disadvantage, a ferocious expression appeared on his face, and he pulled out a dagger.

He was swinging it around wildly, the sharp knife was flashing in the light, the bodyguards ducked to avoid being stabbed. He started to run away, his friends followed, so the bodyguards stopped to catch their breath.

Out of nowhere, he turned around and ran in Hazel’s direction.

“Stop him!” Isaac’s face instantly went white.

All the bodyguards ran forward, but they were a pace or two slower, within a few seconds, the attacker was only a few steps away from Hazel.

One bodyguard got a burst of adrenaline, pounced, and grabbed his leg. The leader was not about to give up though, he threw the knife.

It was as if it was happening in slow motion, Isaac’s bodyguards could not stop it, and Hazel could not dodge it, the dagger went straight into Hazel’s chest.

“Hazel!” Isaac cried, terrified.

The impact of the dagger caused her to stagger back two steps. She only felt as if she had been struck on her chest.

“Hazel, you need to be okay,” Isaac said, looking flustered as he approached her. “Joshua has entrusted you to me. If anything happens to you, what shall I tell him?”

“I…” She suddenly became confused as she was surprised and looked at her chest in disbelief.

She took a deep breath and said, “I’m fine.”

“Stop talking, I’ll take you to the hospital now!” Isaac quickly shouted to the bodyguards, “Get the car here!”

“Isaac, I’m really fine.” She pushed him aside and calmly pulled the dagger out of her chest.

Isaac was taken back, he could not understand why there was no blood on the dagger.

How could that be possible? He clearly had seen the knife in Hazel’s chest.

The bodyguards had got the group under control, and the one who had stabbed Hazel with the knife was knocked unconscious.

Fearing that there may be another attack on Hazel, the bodyguards searched them to make sure they didn’t have any other weapons.

“Take these people to the police,” Isaac said, with a surly face. “Tell the police to make sure they find out who was behind this!”

The bodyguards agreed quickly and put the thugs in the cars.

Isaac turned his gaze toward Hazel, he was still filled with disbelief. “What’s the matter, Hazel? Why aren’t you hurt?”
