Chapter 1239

Stella was stunned and quickly looked up to see what was happening.

Marshall’s whole upper body was pushed out of the third- floor window. He was desperately clutching onto the window frame with one hand while restraining a man holding a knife with the other. The knife was dangerously close to Marshall’s neck, and there were traces of blood on his hand.

As Stella observed the situation, she saw the person swinging the knife again. Marshall managed to dodge it and tightly gripped the person’s wrist.

The sound of glass shattering caught the attention of some neighbors, but many minded their own business as if such situations were not uncommon in the area.

‘Damn, that guy is out of control!” Felicity unbuckled her seatbelt and said, “I’ll go up there to help Marshall. You call for help.”

Before Stella could respond, Felicity opened the door of the car and rushed toward the building.

‘Is she crazy?! That man has a knife!’ Stella muttered to herself. However, she did not have time to dwell on it. She grabbed her phone and called the emergency services while running after Felicity.

When Felicity arrived at the third floor of the building, she found a hidden door. She walked up to it, and she could hear a man say, “You be her secret lover, right? There’s no way I’m letting her leave me. See you in hell, jerk!”

Felicity pushed the door open and saw that the room was a mess. A woman was lying unconscious on the floor near the coffee table, and her face was covered in blood.

A shirtless man stood at the living room window, wielding a knife and spewing profanities. Marshall’s feet were already floating above the ground, and it seemed like he could fall out the window at any moment.

Felicity quickly assessed the situation and grabbed a glass bottle nearby. Then, she swung it toward the man’s head with great force.

However, her height worked against her. When she was swinging the bottle, the man’s head moved slightly, causing it to hit the back of his neck instead. The bottle shattered, and glass shards cut into the man’s neck, drawing blood.

The man froze and touched the back of his neck. Upon seeing his bloody hand, he turned red with rage. He then turned toward Felicity with the knife and yelled, “You bitch! How dare you hit me!”

Felicity’s heart raced. She immediately fled when the man lunged at her. With the man gone, Marshall managed to pull himself back from the window. He then grabbed a broom nearby and chased after the man.

On her way out, Felicity bumped into Stella and quickly grabbed onto her. “That man is crazy! RUN!”

she yelled.

Soon, the man with the knife caught up with them.

Stella shielded Felicity and sprayed some pepper spray on the man’s face. The spray hit his eyes and caused him to scream in pain. He waved the knife wildly, as he cursed, ” You bitch! I’m gonna kill you!”

However, the man could not aim his knife correctly due to his limited vision. Stella quickly pulled Felicity to the side to avoid getting hurt.

One of the residents in the apartment heard the commotion and opened their door to see what was going on. The man detected movement and quickly lunged toward the neighbor. Fortunately, the other party was able to shut the door in time.
