Chapter 940 Shirley Gets Injured

"Mr. Crayson, you…" After a second of hesitation, Shirley immediately yelled, "Help! I need help!" While

screaming, she dashed for Crayson and enveloped his hands. "Mr. Crayson, you can't leave. If you

leave, Roni will hate me forever."

She used all her might to hold onto his arms, not letting him bend down to take off the rope. Meanwhile,

the footsteps were getting closer from the outside.

After struggling for a while, Crayson demanded, "Let go of me. Let go!"

"No, never!"

Since she was not letting go and he could not struggle free, he decided to forcefully swing his right arm.

Those who practiced martial arts had powerful strength, so she was easily tossed aside with one strike.

Out of instinct, he flung his hand upward, causing the blade on the ring to swipe across her face.

"Ahhh—" In an instant, Shirley fell to the ground and could feel a burning, sharp pain on her face. As

blood started spilling out of the cut, it seeped into her eyes as she was on the floor, causing her vision

to become a patch of red.

Bang…

The living room door was yanked open by the people Veronica arranged to stand guard at the

restaurant. On the other hand, Crayson was shocked by the scene before him and looked dazedly at

Shirley on the floor. The wound began on her cheek and ended at the nose of her bridge. The blood

was surging red, and the flesh on the side of the wound rolled, creating a horrifying scene.

He frowned. "Shirley, I'm sorry… I didn't do it on purpose." That was the last thing he had anticipated.

Still, when he heard incoming footsteps, he could not care about anything and bent down to cut the

rope at his legs.

When several men arrived before him, he rose to his feet.

"Get him!"

"Don't let him get away. Miss Murphy ordered that we must not let him escape."

"Hurry up."

"Apprehend!"

The four got into a stance and charged simultaneously, but they were not Crayson's opponents.

Though he was up there in age and seemed a little chubby, his lower stance remained stable. With a

set of punches, he took down the four men with ease.

The men on the floor groaned in pain before getting up again and attacking Crayson, but they could not

even get near him. In less than a minute, the four were back on the ground with no strength to rise

again.

Meanwhile, Shirley was covering her face as she was shivering from the pain. The blood blurred her

eyes, so she could not see anything. The man leading the others clutched the part of his chest where

his ribs broke and stood up. Then, he grabbed the glass on the table before stumbling over, wanting to

risk his life to stop Crayson from leaving.

However, Crayson pointed at Shirley and informed that man, "You guys can't stop me on your own.

Shirley is heavily injured, so hurry up and call the doctor!" With that, he turned around and left.

Back at First Meeting, he had interacted with her a lot and gradually developed a liking for the honest

young woman. Therefore, the incident today was purely accidental.

After leaving One Piece Restaurant, he got in a cab and borrowed the driver's phone to call Hayley.

Since he was in frequent contact with her, he remembered her phone number.

Once Hayley answered the call, she asked, "Who is this?"

"It's me." Crayson declared his name and continued, "Veronica has led some men to the west zone

secret research center. Have someone leak this information to Tanya and immediately send some of

our men near the west side to stop Veronica."

Then, he hung up and deleted the call log before returning the phone to the driver, who gave Crayson a

meaningful look. The driver parted his lips, wanting to say something but eventually decided not to.
