Chapter 185
Eliza bit her lips and stared fixedly at the man in front of her. She could not get up. The severe pain on her leg made her feel that she must have hurt herself. In the rain, the knife in the man’s hand was bright and frightening. She lay on the ground, supported herself with her arms, and retreated. “I have no grudge against you…” The man smiled. “Yes, there is no grudge between you and me.” “But someone is willing to spend two hundred dollars to to buy your life.” He walked to her with a sneer, raised his knife, and slashed down hard Eliza resigned to her fate and closed her eyes. She was always blessed with great fortune. No matter how many times she was in danger since she was a child, she would often be saved. However, she had never imagined that she would end up dying on a rainy day on a country road just like this… She smelled blood. But she did not feel pain as she expected. She frowned and unconsciously opened her eyes. In front of her was a big hand of a familiar man. His palm tightly gripped the blade, and blood flowed down from the wound, some splashed onto Eliza’s face, some dripped onto the ground. “You’re courting death!”
The man in black gritted his teeth, pulled the knife away from Beau’s hand, and then fiercely slashed down again. But before he could wield the knife again, Beau kicked him to the ground. “Clank!” The man’s knife fell to the ground. Beau quickly kicked the knife aside. The man rushed up like crazy. Beau frowned and wanted to continue fighting, but the wound on his hand was so deep that he could almost see the bones. 1 Pain and blood loss made his face pale. Eliza grabbed the bottom of his pants, heart aching. for more Daily updates visit :- www.noveljar.com”Are you all right?” D “I’m fine.” He turned around and glanced at her with a smile. “It’s a rare opportunity to protect you.” After that, Beau bit his lip and stopped the man from picking up the knife. The rain became heavier. Rain, blood, and mud mixed together. Eliza cried and sat where she was. She couldn’t stand up, nor could she help Beau. She could only watch helplessly. This kind of feeling was too torturing. When she looked at this man who was normally aloof, fighting with another person like a wild beast, her heart felt as if it was torn apart by something. She felt that her heart was like Beau’s injured hand. After some time. A thunderclap boomed
in the sky as Noah hurried over. He rushed forward and subdued the man in black with Beau. “Sir, are you all right?” Noah pressed the man in black under his knees and looked up worriedly at Beau. “I’m fine.” Beau took a deep breath and placed his injured hand at the side. He turned around and looked tenderly at Eliza. “Can you stand up?” Watching the blood dripping from his hand, Eliza cried and shook her head. “I can’t stand
up…”
“I’ll carry you.” She quickly shook her head. “No, you’re hurt…” “Just a small injury.” He looked at her softly. “Don’t think that I’m that fragile.” After speaking, he squatted down and used the uninjured hand to pick up Eliza’s body. Eliza was worried about him, so she did not dare to struggle. In the beginning, she was worried that he would not be able to hold on. But later, he held her and walked steadily for a long time. She was relieved. It seemed that he was really fine. The rain stopped. While Noah was escorting the man in black, Beau was carrying Eliza. The four of them walked a long distance and finally returned to the small mountain village where the civilians lived. The blood on Beau’s hands spilled all the way. “Eliza!” Everyone in the crew was waiting on the path in front of the house. Seeing Eliza coming back, Gloria rushed over directly. Beau put Eliza down from his arms. When she stood still on the ground, Eliza felt that danger had really passed. Gloria held her hand nervously. “Are you okay? I was worried sick because of you!” “Even if you wanted to go out to look for Trinity, you should get everyone else to help find her. How can you go out by yourself?” for more Daily updates visit :- www.noveljar.com “No matter how skilled you are, you are still a woman!” Her words of concern warmed Eliza’s heart. She pursed her lips. “I really didn’t think much…” She didn’t know what was wrong with her at that time. When she heard the news that Trinity was missing and saw her mother’s anxious look, she didn’t think too much. All she thought about was that Trinity would come back soon. “Miss Lawson, I’m sorry…” In the crowd, Trinity, who was holding the hare, stepped out timidly. “I made you worry. A man said that my hare is so cute that he wanted to kill it and eat it, so I..”
The little girl was full of tears. “I carried the hare and hid…”. “I really didn’t mean to go missing.”
Trinity’s words made Eliza let out a long sigh of relief. It turned out that it was all a misunderstanding. “It’s fine as long as you’re all right.” “Why is there so much blood on you, Eliza?” Suddenly, Gloria’s voice made Eliza come to her senses. Blood? Eliza frowned. She wasn’t injured… Suddenly, she remembered the man behind her. The moment she turned her head, Beau, who had lost too much blood, fell directly on her body…
The medical care was limited in the mountain village. The wound on Beau’s hand was very deep, and it was infected with mud. They found a barefoot doctor in the village and prescribed some anti- inflammatory medicine to stop the bleeding. Then, Eliza directly went back to Krine with Noah. Before she left, Mr. Diaz stood outside the car and sent her off with tears. “I’m sorry, Mr. Diaz.” She looked at the director outside the car apologetically. “I probably won’t be able to film the following scenes. My husband is injured… I have to take care of him.” Mr. Diaz wiped his tears with grievance and said, “I’m afraid that we can’t shoot this film…” “Julian left early this morning. He said that he was out of love and had given up. He wants to go back to his hometown to take a break…” “Now that you’re also leaving.” Eliza frowned. Only then did she realize that she had indeed not seen Julian since this morning.
It turned out that he had already left… She let out a deep breath. “Then, Mr. Diaz, I wish you better luck in your next film.” After that, she rolled up the window. “Noah, let’s go.” The car started. She sat in the back seat of the car and hugged the man lying on top of her tightly. “You will be fine.” “I am fine.”
The pale-faced man raised his hand and held her hand gently. “I’m just a little weak. I’ll be all right after some rest.” After that, he glanced at his injured right hand lightly. “Maybe you will need to feed me every day for a period of time.” His words made Eliza’s heart feel warm. She sighed softly. for more Daily updates visit :- www.noveljar.com “Let alone for a period of time, even for a lifetime…” Beau laughed lightly. “Noah, record it.” “Say it again, even for a lifetime?” Eliza, “…” After a long while, she helplessly rolled her eyes at him. “You want to take advantage of me even when you’re injured.” Beau smiled faintly and closed his eyes. “It was Lucija who sent the man to do it.” “This time, Elias won’t be able to protect her either.”Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
