Bang—!
A gunshot rang out.
The person who fell was none other than Liam himself.
The special forces quickly stormed into the swimming pool, firing two laser-focused rounds at the bulletproof glass box, causing it
to shatter instantly. The water flushed out like a flood.
In this rescue operation, two police officers lost their lives in the explosion. It turned out that Liam, who appeared to be an
executive director of the Hoffman Group, had been secretly colluding with foreign criminalanizations and engaging in arms
smuggling for years.
Liam possessed heavy weaponry, which made the rescue mission exceptionally challenging.
The miniature camera worn by Ryan recorded this brutal ordeal. Because of this, Ralph prepared more advanced weapons to break
the tank and successfully rescue the hostage, Carrie.
When Carrie was sent to the ICU, her heartbeat was weak, and she was barely alive.
She had nearly drowned and had suffered internal injuries from the beatings, making her condition very critical.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMembers of the Thompson and Salvador families who coulde had gathered, filling the corridor outside the ICU. Nigel was
overwhelmed with grief, shedding tears. He almost collapsed but was supported by Gregory and Matt.
Except for Sasha, who was abroad with Wyatt, Mila, Celeste, Axel, Amelia, and Steve had all arrived. Mila was in tears, as if it were
her own daughter on the brink of death.
Though severely injured, Ryan did not rest in the hospital. Instead, he went to the police station with Ralph to assist with the
investigation and identify the bodies.
He had to address not only the case of Carrie's kidnapping but also the deaths of his grandfather and Yasmin. The Hoffman Group
was in turmoil. If he collapsed, the Hoffman Group would truly be finished.
Bella and Justin did not go to the hospital but stayed in the police station's lobby, not drinking a sip of water, waiting for a whole
day and night.
During this time, Justin managed the aftermath for Ryan, taking on all the responsibilities of the Hoffman Group and helping him
handle the external pressures on the Hoffman Group by stabilizing public opinion and media coverage. It eased the situation to
sextent.
Bella was also busy, making calls to her older brothers, instructing them to prepare to deal with those five scoundrels, including
Jason, and their families.
“Bella, Dad knows about Carrie's situation.” Asher’s voice was full of sorrow. “Dad said if Hoffman has any difficulties, he will
definitely help. Dad is also asking how his future daughter-in-law is doing. Is Carrie okay? Has she woken up?”
“Hah... At a tlike this, Wyatt is still joking.” Bella, rubbing her tear-swollen eyes, said, “Tell Wyatt that Carrie is not his
daughter-in-law. She is Ryan's wife. He can find someone else. Carrie has not woken up yet, but she will get through this.”
“Arnold and | have already bought tickets and will be boarding in two hours. He said prolonged drowning and suffocation might
damage the brain. He is a brain specialist and wants toe back to check on Carrie.”
“Thank you, Arnold.”
“Bella, don’t be sad. Everything will be alright.”
After handling his tasks, Justin returned to Bella's side, holding her in his arms, gently patting her back, and soothing her. “Did you
talk to Asher?”
“Yes...” She responded weakly, her tears soaking his shirt.
“It's all over. It's all over.” Justin's voice choked with emotion as he tried to control himself, not daring to bring up more sorrowful
topics.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt this moment, heavy footsteps approached. Bella and Justin turned around simultaneously, their hearts skipping a beat. The man
before them had desolate, dark eyes. His once jet-black, neat hair was now streaked with gray at the temples, as if covered in
frost.
“Ryan...” Justin's heart ached deeply, tears welling up. He did not expect that the saying of hair turning gray overnight would turn
out to be true.
