"Coralie!"
It was Skylar's voice.
However, at the next second, Coralie heard the sound of a gun loading. Although it sounded faint and
far away, she heard it clearly. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
"No, no!"
Coralie knew that it must have been Yohan's gun.
They were betting on their lives. They wanted to kill Skylar!
"You lost."
It was Yohan's voice.
As Coralie was blindfolded, she had no idea what was going on in the distance.
She also didn't know what Yohan and Skylar were doing.
However, she couldn't care about it anymore. She screamed desperately, "Don't kill him, Yohan. Yonn,
I'll give my life to you. I'll be with you forever. You can do whatever you want to me, as long as you
agree not to kill him."
"No." Skylar's voice came, "Send her to the hospital first, and then I want to inspect the scene. Even if I
die, I want to die without any regrets."
After Skylar shot Coralie, he wanted to go over and see what happened. However, Yohan was already
pointing his gun at his head.
Moreover, the gun was loaded.
Skylar knew that it was impossible for him to miss that shot, especially since he was so close to him.
However, the bullet did go through Coralie's shoulder. With his understanding of Yohan, he might have
used something to change the bullet's trajectory.
"Can't afford to lose?"
Yohan signalled the people beside to save Coralie as he spoke.
Coralie was still tied up and her shirt was soaked with blood.
She gritted her teeth and did not scream. However, the pain was so great that she could no longer
control her tears.
When Yohan's people untied Coralie and removed her blindfold, Coralie saw that Yohan was pointing
his gun at Skylar's temple.
"No!"
Coralie almost went crazy.
Even though it was painful, even though she wasn't a brave person, she was fearless when it came to
anything related to Skylar.
She wanted to rush over, but her hands were numb from excessive bleeding. Coralie fell down while
walking.
"Coralie, it's okay. Don't move. Follow them to the hospital. Don't worry about me."
Skylar saw Coralie, but he did not move as Yohan was pointing the gun at him.
"I'm not leaving."
Coralie supported herself with one hand and walked forward. Her arm was naturally dangling as it was
injured. She dragged herself on her knees to Yohan. She grabbed Yohan's trousers and said, "You
wanted someone's life right? I'll give mine to you."
"I want to check!"
Skylar felt sorry for Coralie. He should have known that Yohan would never have a clean match with
him.
He should have taken some precautions in advance!
"What if I refuse?"
"You can't refuse."
As Skylar spoke, around 30 bodyguards suddenly came from the door, surrounding everyone.
It was obvious that they were from the Holland family.
"Wow, I didn't know President Holland had a backup plan, huh?"
Yohan wasn't taken aback even when there were so many bodyguards surrounding him.
Coralie looked around; Skylar had taken control of the shooting range, but she did not dare to relax.
The paramedics came over and said to Coralie, "Miss Chariott, we must stop the bleeding now."
"I won't leave. If someone has to die today, that person will be me. Everything happened because of
me."
Coralie sat there and refused to leave at all.
She could not let Yohan hurt Skylar.
"President Holland, the result is set. You have to learn to accept the reality."
After Yohan finished speaking, there were about 40 bodyguards standing up at the last row of the
audience seat.
In addition to those on the range, Yohan's people obviously outnumbered Skylar's.
"Do you think I'll accept this result with your dirty little trick?"
"Haha, I am a villain. President Holland, let's make an agreement. If I allow you to inspect and you can't
get anything out of the inspection, your life belongs to me. Deal?"
Yohan said with a smile, looking calm.
It was as if he was certain that Skylar would not find out anything.
"No..."
At that moment, Coralie was still bleeding profusely. Although the paramedics were helping her stop
the bleeding, the effect was minimal and she began to feel dizzy.
However, she wanted Skylar to leave.
Coralie stood up, pushed Skylar away and said, "Skylar, I-I want to talk to you. I'll leave after that.
Okay?"
"Go and clean your wounds. Don't worry about me."
Skylar felt sorry for Coralie, but he couldn't move. There were more than ten guns pointing at him; one
of them might pull the trigger at any time.
"Skylar, take good care of Hendric for me."
"Be a good girl. Go and clean your wound."
Skylar noticed that the area of the bloodstain on her shirt was getting bigger. He knew that she was still
bleeding. Moreover, Coralie looked very pale and she was swaying. He knew that she could no longer
hold on.
"Skylar, one more thing..." Coralie grabbed Skylar's shoulder, looked up at him and stuttered, "I don't
love you anymore, not even a little..."
After that, she collapsed on Skylar's chest. Then, she knelt down and was about to fall to the ground...
"Coralie!"
Skylar squatted down and held Coralie, who was about to fall down.
"Leave... now..."
Coralie could only utter those final two words with her pale lips. Then, she fainted.
......
When Coralie woke up again, three days had passed.
She was in a warm and clean ward. The bullet in her shoulder had already been taken out.
"Corrie, you are awake. Would you like something to eat?"
Coralie was still lost in thoughts when Yohan's voice came.
She turned around and saw that Yohan had a table set up in the ward. There was a laptop on it.
"Yohan... Sky-, how long have I been in a coma?"
In fact, Coralie wanted to ask about Skylar, but she dared not. She was afraid that Yohan would be
angry so she could only ask something else.
"It has been three days."
"Three days..." Coralie murmured. She was dying to know what happened to Skylar that day, "How did
everything turn out that day?
"As you wish, I let him go. However, I hope that you will keep your promise too."
Yohan stood by Coralie's bed, looking at her. Although he looked gentle and was smiling brightly,
Coralie felt a chill running down her spine.
He was warning her.
However, it was her decision. It was great as long as Skylar was still alive, wasn't it?
She believed that Skylar would take good care of Hendric.
"Yes, you have my word. My life is yours. I will do whatever you want me to."
Coralie looked into Yohan's eyes with determination.
One should not be too greedy. She just wanted the person she loved to be alive.
