Chapter 594 However, Edward’s driving skills were not bad either. So, he kept following closely behind Hayley and
Jacob. With that, a game of cat and mouse began between them.
When they arrived at an empty road, Edward instructed his subordinates to flank Jacob’s car from both
sides. Only then did Jacob stop the vehicle in the middle of the road.
Hayley noticed through the window that Edward was coming out of the car with a grim expression, and
she immediately became terrified. In a panic, she grabbed Jacob’s arm and repeatedly asked in a
trembling voice, “What do we do? What do we do now? They’re here.”
When Jacob heard her hysterical voice, he frowned in annoyance, but as soon as he saw how terrified
she was, he kept mum about it.
Without wasting much time, he took out a dagger from the side of his seat and handed it to her. Then, he
advised her, “You take this. Use this to protect yourself no matter who comes near you later.”
She tightly held the dagger in her trembling hands, but she saw Jacob opening the door and getting out
of the car before she could say anything.
At this moment, Jacob’s subordinates, who were following behind Hayley and Jacob all this while,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtemerged from the car one after another when they noticed that their boss had come forward in person.
However, they did not have as many people as Edward since Jacob had rushed over in a hurry as soon
as he got the call from Hayley.
Both parties started their fight right away and bypassed any small talk. It was unexpected of Jacob to
have splendid combat skills and most of Edward’s subordinates were no match for him.
When Edward saw his subordinate being kicked away by Jacob, he went up to catch his people and
instructed coldly, “Leave him to me. Get Hayley Stone.”
After a nod, the subordinate instantly ran to the car Hayley was in.
When Jacob heard Edward’s order, his face turned cold at once. He ran forward, trying to stop the
subordinate, but was blocked by Edward.
“I’m your opponent.” As soon as he said that, he attacked Jacob with his aggressive and well trained
fighting skills.
However, Edward was startled after a few rounds as Jacob had the same level of combat experience as
him.
On the other hand, Hayley was already forced out of the car, but she gripped Jacob’s dagger for dear life
with trembling hands and brandished the weapon in the air.
“Get lost! Don’t come near me!” She glared at the bodyguards around her in fear and rage, preventing
them from coming anywhere near her.
At this moment, she noticed one of the bodyguards was trying to attack her forcefully. With her eyes full
of determination, she thought, I can never let them get me!
When she thought about it, Hayley held the dagger and ran straight to the bodyguard to stab him.
As the bodyguard was professionally trained and experienced in fighting, it was obvious that her attack
did not hurt him.
Adding on to that, he leveraged her strength to hit her back.
It also meant that Hayley was out of luck. When the bodyguard diverted the attack back to her, she
accidentally stabbed herself in the stomach with the dagger in her hand.
Judging from her action earlier, the wound that she gave herself wasn’t something serious, but she still
screamed in pain despite her having this knowledge, “Ahhhh!”
As soon as Jacob heard her screaming, he turned his head to find out what had happened. The sight of
Hayley bleeding provoked him, and he used all his strength to block Edward before dashing toward
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHayley.
Edward stopped the others immediately when he saw such a scene.
When Hayley saw Jacob running toward her, she felt like she had seen her savior. She grabbed him
tightly the moment he arrived by her side and weakly pleaded in panic, “Jacob, it’s so… So painful.
Hurry, take me to the hospital; I don’t want to die.”
What she didn’t know was that her wound was not as deep as she thought.
She felt herself breaking out in cold sweat from the pain, and now that the blood was continuously
flowing out from her wound, she was worried that she would bleed to death. “Jacob, save me. Save me,
please. I don’t want to die.”
As he listened to her plea, he carried her in his arms to his car with a dark look on his face. Then, he
instructed his subordinate to drive off.
When the bodyguards’ leader saw them speeding away, he hurried up to Edward and asked, “Mr.
Jackson, should we go after them?”
As Edward looked in the direction where the car fled, he narrowed his eyes and pondered before he
finally ordered the bodyguards, “No, we’re going back.”
Now that Hayley was hurt, she wouldn’t leave Vienna anytime soon.
