Chapter 71
Ava, who was pushed away by Caleb, fell to the ground because she was unable to keep her balance. She had just recovered from the shock that Caleb would actually push her away when, less than a minute, Caleb was already walking toward the door carrying Evelyn
Zoey quickly caught up from behind, only then did she see Evelyn’s arin covered in dark red blood, some of which had already begun to coagulate.
“Where are you taking her?” Zoey anxiously looked at Evelyn. This was the second time that Zoey had seen so much blood in her life, and she was already freaked out.
“Ms. Harper, I will inform Felix to come pick you up. Evelyn’s shoulder has to be treated at once.”
Evelyn felt as if a switch for pain had just been flipped on, her shoulder suddenly aching intensely. With large drops of sweat continually rolling down her forehead, she could hardly speak.
Terrified, Zoey stepped aside to make way for Caleb, afraid of delaying him.
Caleb no longer cared about Zoey and quickly carried Evelyn into the car.
“Have Henry come to my villa immediately!” Caleb said to Colin. He gently placed Evelyn on the seat, his eyes fixed intently on Evelyn.
Upon seeing the blood on them, Colin was startled. Without hesitation, he immediately slammed on the accelerator. The car’s exhaust fumes sprayed onto Ava’s face as she caught up, and her voice was drowned out by the rumbling sound of the engine.
“Caleb!” The sharp female voice was filled with despair. The look in Caleb’s eyes just now as he held Evelyn was something she had never seen before. It really freaked her out, stirring up immense fear inside her. She couldn’t clearly describe what kind of look it was, but she knew that at that moment, she wished so much that Caleb was holding her.
Ava caught up all the way. She was too tired to go on. Watching the car that had long been out of sight, she instantly collapsed and sat on the ground. Resentment burned in Ava’s eyes ‘Evelyn, why don’t you just die? Why did you come back after going abroad? Why? Why are there always so many men around you who cherish you as a treasure?” thought Ava. Ava’s expression suddenly twisted,
The large Metro Garden was empty. The silent night sky accentuated the sparse bloodstains on the clean carpet, adding to the horror, which would frighten anyone unaware.
The elderly doctor carrying the medical kit had already seen too much blood. Without even blinking an eye at the sight, he followed Colin straight into Caleb’s bedroom.
Henry Randall showed a look of worry on his wrinkled face. “Colin, is Mr. Mercer injured?”
Colin pushed the door open for Henry and whispered, “No, it’s Ms. Brin. Henry, you should hurry and check on her.”
Henry’s aged eyes suddenly held a hint of confusion. ‘Ms. Brin? he wondered.
He quickly entered the room, took a look inside, and then realized that it was Evelyn, whom he had only met a few times Although he hadn’t met Evelyn many times, he still had an impression of her. After all, Evelyn was a nice person.
Evelyn had already passed out from the pain, and Caleb stared blankly at Evelyn’s continuously bleeding shoulder. His hollow eyes suddenly lit up when he heard the sound of footsteps. “Henry. Hurry up! Check her wound!”
Henry arranged the medical kit and quickly stopped Evelyn’s bleeding. Looking at the bloodstained, unsightly shoulder. Henry glanced at Caleb with a mixture of frustration and disappointment. “Why didn’t you stop her bleeding first instead of watching? If I hadn’t come, would you have waited for her to bleed to death?”
