Chapter 949

"Okay."

Irene nodded-she would do her best to go with the plan.

Still, Zachary was considerably relieved to know that their allies were outside. At the very least, they might escape

this yet.

Rat-tat-tat-tat-tat...

They could not tell whose side one particular gunman was on, but they were shooting as if bullets cost nothing.

Still, they thought it might be the enemy since James would not have been able to gather so much firepower in an

instant.

However, Zachary felt worried again at the thought of James and his men being outgunned and that James might

be beaten.

They would not have any way to escape!

This was the first time he was so close to a firefight, and this was supposed to be an era of peace!

Still, even if there was order in Zidonia, they were now abroad!

Nonetheless, it was obvious that the gang were retreating, to the alley on the edge of the street.

And once the gang was forced there, Stan drove up to the restaurant. Zachary dashed outside to open the door,

while Irene quickly followed as she helped Isaac move.

Once they were all in the car, Stan promptly floored the gas pedal!

One good point of a vehicle with high horsepower was definitely its rapid acceleration!

However, just as the jeep sped out, the commotion drew the enemy's attention, and they could see inside because

the rear windshield had not been fixed!

They all started running towards it and barraging it with bullets, while James did not have enough firepower to stop

them!

And within the car, Irene could see a foreigner's savage face as he leveled his gun at them.

Frowning, she lunged at Isaac and pulled him down the next instant!

Vroom!

Stan floored the gas pedal again while James kept trying to divert the enemy's attention from behind.

It was dangerous, but they managed to get away.

Still, Zachary’s expression was somber. "Is James going to be alright?"

That gang had packed enough firepower for war!

"He'll come up with something and slip away," Stan replied as he drove.

Zachary nodded, but he still felt gloomy.

Those people were not playing around, and this was clearly not over yet!

That much was obvious as the gang charged at them with everything they got, as if they would not rest until

everyone in this car was dead!

"Irene."

Isaac called out just then, since Irene had been very silent.

"I'm here," she replied, though her brow was deeply furrowed and there were droplets of sweat over her forehead.

Isaac narrowed his eyes-he sensed the hoarseness in her tone despite her best attempts at disguising it. "Are you

hurt?"

"No," she replied, quickly denying it.

However, Zachary overheard their conversation and turned.

He saw Irene's face turning pale, clearly having been wounded.

He was going to speak when Irene shook her head at him-she did not want Isaac to worry.

The bullet had only hit her on the shoulder and was not lethal.

However, it hurt a lot and she was bleeding profusely.

Zachary pursed his lips worriedly while urging Stan, "Drive faster."

"I am!" Stan exclaimed, not to mention that there was more than one car on the road.

They have to consider safety along with speed!

In the backseat, Irene was squeezing Isaac's hand and leaning on his chest.

Isaac frowned as he brushed his fingers through her hair and felt wetness all over her forehead.

He did not ask any other questions because he knew the answer inside.

He gulped and squeezed her hand in turn. "You'll be alright, Irene. Okay?"

"Yeah," Irene said, smiling at him and burying her face in his chest, murmuring frailly, "Tommy and our baby are

waiting for us to get home!"

She told herself to survive in her heart too, but her eyelids felt so heavy! She must be feeling dizzy from losing too

much blood!
