Everything happened so suddenly that it barely made any waves. Since the banquet was sowhat noisy with the live orchestra arrangent and the incident happened on the secluded side of the courtyard, it was almost impossible for anyone to notice anything.
Raelle's eyes were trying to focus but it was sowhat difficult with the blood loss and the pain in her stomach like soone was tearing her apart. Yes, she knew this was pain. She could definitely tell it. It wasn't her first ti going through such intense pain but it was definitely the first ti, she felt it so strongly.
Her breathing was getting difficult but she forced herself to stay awake and tried to move toward Tang Hebe who was lying in the pool of blood. Her body was still and it couldn't even be told if she was still alive or not.
On the other hand, Cloe was still not comfortable leaving Raelle with Tang Hebe. So, she had waited and waited. When it had been over twenty minutes and she still saw no signs of both won, she got worried and decided to throw her Chief's orders into the trash bin and ran to the garden. And when she did, she almost scread in shock at the bloody sight before her.
She watched how Raelle was trying to reach up to Tang Hebe's lifeless body. Her pure white gown was stained in blood. It was a sight she would never be able to forget.
"Chief!" Cloe rushed over to Raelle and held her shoulders to support her body.
Seeing Cloe, Raelle stopped struggling and allowed her body to relax. Opening her mouth, she said, "Check up on her. She doesn't look good."
Cloe was in disbelief when she heard that order, "Chief, are you in the condition to even think about anyone else right now? Look at yourself!"
Her heart was beating wildly when she saw so much blood. There wasn't a single person in sight right now.
Usually, Raelle's bodyguards would be around. But tonight, they were at the banquet where the country's important people were gathered, so the personal security teams of the guests were actually not allowed inside the venue. They had been arranged to have dinner at a detached building beside the courtyard.
The security of the courtyard was already very high. But the place Raelle and Tang Hebe ca to happened to be beside the living quarters of Minister Chen's family and that's where the security team wasn't active tonight since all the guests were in the hall.
"See if she is alive," ordered Raelle, breathlessly. "Help her."
With trembling hands, Cloe placed her fingers under Tang Hebe's nose and felt a faint breath. That made her heart ease a little. But it was only a little. It didn't help much. Using her shaky hands, she took out her phone wanting to contact Raelle's bodyguards but before she could they ca running over.
"Missy!" Anna called out and crouched down beside Raelle to check up on her. She took her pulse and her eyes constricted. "Get the car, we need to take her to the hospital. She is losing too much blood."
Earlier Raelle had been focused on contacting Anna when the incident happened. She had just dialed the number when she heard Tang Hebe calling out her na. Anna had already picked up the phone when she heard that shout coming from the phone before she heard a crashing sound. Because of the push, Raelle dropped her phone and didn't get to respond. And not hearing anything from Raelle, Anna was already sweating in worrying.
She activated the location function to find the precise location of Raelle before taking the others with her.
"Anna!"
"Yes, Missy?"
Raelle pointed at the pot that fell from above, "Find who did that. And don't tell it fell from the wind."
Anna's eyes sharpened once she noticed that flowerpot, a bloodthirsty aura emanated from her body as she replied, "I'll give you an answer for that, Missy!"
She was approaching and condemning herself for not being able to do her job right. She should have kept Raelle in the range of her sight. Those were the orders! But since Raelle said there wasn't a big deal with not having her security team beside her, Anna was helpless. Even she knew Raelle was capable of protecting herself in a dangerous situation.
However, the situation that occurred was bizarre and out of their expectations.
"Aiden, carry Missy to the car," ordered Anna.
Aiden walked to Raelle and wore gloves before bowing to apologize, "I'm sorry for the impudence, Missy!"
Raelle only sucked in a sharp breath when he carried her, "I can't possibly care about that right now." She looked at Cloe and said, "Call my husband. Don't make a scene. We don't wanna create a scene at this banquet. Arrange the best doctors for her." She was obviously talking about Tang Hebe. "You better save her." Then she looked at Anna and continued, "Find the culprit and wait for ."
"And while I'm waiting?" asked Anna.
Raelle was on the verge of collapse when she only managed to say, "Do whatever you like."
Anna's eyes burned with rage as she nodded, "As you wish."
Cloe had known Anna since the ti she had been with Raelle but she had to say, it was the first ti, she was truly scared of this woman who always wore a serious but very amiable expression. Especially when she stood facing Raelle, she always had a gentle look on her face. But currently, she seed scary. Really scary!
"Chief, I'm only supposed to call your husband? What about the others? Should I call Miss Mu or not?"
However, no one could answer that question for now. Since Raelle had already fainted when they put her and Tang Hebe in the car. Although they couldn't do much to help Raelle, they still tried to provide so first aid to the unconscious Tang Hebe.
