Chapter 962
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
In the meantime, one of Zaraâs men broke the window of the Rolls-Royce and yanked Charlotte out of the car.
Charlotte gave him a strong kick in response. âDie!â uttered Zara as she pointed her gun at Charlotte.
âMs. Lindbergâ¦â
At this crucial moment, a person swooped in front of Charlotte and took the bullet for her.
Bang!
Charlotte was shell-shocked as blood splashed onto her face.
When she came back to her senses, she saw Morgan lying down beside herâ¦
Morgan suffered another shot on her chest and was bleeding profusely. Her body twitched a few times before she passed out.
Charlotte stared vacuously at Morgan.
Her heart felt like it was being pierced through by a bullet.
Suddenly, the image of Mrs. Berry getting shot by Sharon was evoked in her mind.
Subsequently, all her other tragic memories started popping up in her head.
She was fraught with resentment and hatred.
Due to her intense emotions, the back of her head started aching.
My head. It hurts. It hurts so muchâ¦
âCharlotte!â Having evaded the bullets in the air, Zachary finally arrived by her side. âIâm sure sheâll make it. Donât worry,â he assured her.
âGet Raina over here. Quick!â
âYes!â
The wind was getting stronger and stronger, signaling the arrival of a thunderstorm.
Raina brought a few people with her before rushing over to Morganâs aid.
âHow is she?â Bruce was all worried.
âWe need to head to the hospital now. The bullet was shot close to her heart. Sheâs in critical condition.â
Bruce hurriedly ordered his men to carry Morgan onto the ambulance.
âLetâs go! A thunderstorm is coming.â
Zachary helped Charlotte up from the ground.
Out of the blue, a thunderclap was heard.
Charlotteâs face immediately stiffened up. She lifted her head up and glared at Zachary.
âYou! Itâs all your fault! On the day of our wedding, you betrayed my trust. I was separated from my own kids because of you.
âHow can the Nacht family be so callous and cruel? First, they took Mrs. Berry away from me. And now, they even want to take my bodyguardâs life.â
Zachary was taciturn.
Sheâs starting to rememberâ¦
âZachary, youâll pay with your lifeââ
Charlotte lunged herself at Zachary with murderous intent.
Instead of dodging her, Zachary merely closed his eyes.
At this moment, another thunderclap was heard.
Covering her head, Charlotte screamed in pain. There was blood coming out of her nose.
âCharlotte!â Zachary covered her ears and comforted her, âEverythingâs fine. Youâll be okay.â
âBruce, get the car over here,â he commanded.
âWeâre still in the process of removing the traps on the road.â Bruce responded.
Raina was unable to send Morgan to the hospital because of the traps as well. Without any tools, the bodyguards would require at least two hours to finish clearing up the road.
âThis is taking way too long. We wonât be able to save Morgan at this rate. Mr. Nacht, why donât we bring her to our clinic? We can provide her with the necessary treatment there.â
âOkay. Quick. We must save her at all costs.â
âYes.â Raina quickly brought Morgan over to the Nacht residence.
Under the lighting storm, Charlotte was behaving like a crazed animal. She was screaming frantically and pulling her hair.
Zachary held tightly onto her to deter her from harming herself.
Unfortunately for him, Charlotteâs attack didnât stop there. She scratched his arm and even bit his neck trying to break free from him.
