Ewan took a deep breath. "You’re okay now. You fainted, and I brought you back. I hadn’t expected that you’d beco a target. It’s my negligence."
I sensed Ewan had more to say, but he didn’t.
What had I done?
When I woke up, I noticed blood under my fingernails.
"We should bring her for a check–up at the hospital. She’s pregnant." Zion and Violette were concerned about .
"I want to go find Dexter," I said quietly.
Violette shook her head. "Go to the hospital first. Dexter has search and rescue personnel looking for him. If you go, it’ll only cause more trouble. Besides, you’re pregnant."
My eyes went red. I had no choice but to enter the car.
"Mr. Black will be fine because you’re waiting for him," Ewan suddenly said before I got into the car. He said Dexter would be fine.
Tears instantly gathered in my eyes, and my heart ached terribly.
"Don’t die."
"Dexter, don’t die." I prayed to myself.
"These are all alive. This one still has a breath." The police checked the yard. Those who ca to kill were all alive. I breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sophia, don’t be scared." Violette saw shivering and hugged .
I looked out blankly. Am I scared?
It didn’t seem like it.
Except for worrying about Dexter, I didn’t seem to feel any other emotions.
"Sofia!"
As soon as the car arrived at the hospital, I saw Damien.
He got out of the car and looked at sowhat nervously, "I heard about Dexter. Are you okay?"
He seed worried about .
I frowned instinctively and moved away from him. "It’s none of your business."
"Sophia," he called my na nervously.
I ignored him.
But he seed like a lingering ghost and kept following .
Ewan went to find Dexter, and Zion helped the police at the scene. Only Violette stayed with .
"Can’t you have so dignity? She’s Sofia. Can’t you just get lost?" Violette scolded Damien.
"How could you be so shaless? Sophia was so kind to you. She gave you all her goodwill. Was that how you should treat her?"
Damien seed deaf to her words. He was probably used to Violette scolding him.
He followed around. He would accompany to any tests I went for.
I was annoyed and told him to leave, but he refused.
"Damien, you’re really annoying." I was getting angry.
"Sophia, I went to the Blacks to find you. Dax’s hand was injured, and Martin got into the car with a few bodyguards. The Blacks said that when Dexter had an accident, you returned to the Blacks and stabbed Dax’s hand with a fruit knife and even almost killed Martin." He seed more convinced that I was Sophia.
My body stiffened in shock as I looked at Damien. "What are you talking about?"
Damien looked at with flickering eyes. He grabbed my wrist tightly as if excited. "Don’t you rember what you did? The Blacks’ servants said that if you hadn’t fainted suddenly, Martin would have been killed by you."
I frowned. I didn’t believe Damien’s words. Still, he had no reason to lie.
Could it be that this was what Ewan wanted to tell about?
I had a short mory loss after I found out about Dexter’s car accident. Was this what I had done?
How did I do it?
"Sophia, don’t listen to his nonsense. You can’t even handle an apple with a knife."
Violette ca to her senses from shock.
However, soon Violette fell silent.
This was because Zion sent her a video.
It was surveillance footage of Dexter’s villa.
In the footage, the dog rushed up and bit the person who wanted to kill .
I took the opportunity to pick up his dagger and fiercely stabbed his heart. I was fast, accurate, and ruthless.
My actions were decisive, without a trace of hesitation. They were neat and clean.
At that mont, I began to doubt myself.
It seed like I’m a habitual offender.
Fortunately, this ti I acted in self–defense.
Damien frowned. He was uninterested in arguing with Violette. "Co with . I’ll take you to see Peter."
I shook off Damien’s hand and looked at him warily.
Peter
The na sounded familiar.
I rembered my parents ntioning Peter in my childhood mories. As for the ntal hospital...
"I know you don’t trust anymore, Sofia, but don’t you want to know why you’d act this way? Have you lost control of yourself and done sothing on your own and woken up with no mory of It? Have you forgotten a lot of mories? Don’t you want to rember those mories?" Damien asked softly.
"Don’t try to manipulate Sofia. Let tell you, you’re the worst in the world!" Violette stopped Damien from taking away.
I didn’t listen to Damien. Right now, all I want was to find Dexter.
My heart was beating fast and I felt panicked. I had an urge. There was a thought in my mind telling that if sothing happened to Dexter, I had to go kill Martin,
Violette pushed Damien away and took for a check–up. The doctor sighed. "You’re still pregnant. Stop getting yourself hurt all the ti. You should be resting more at a ti like this."
I lowered my head and looked at my stomach. Tears were welling up in my eyes.
Both and the baby were waiting for Dexter. He would definitely co back.
"Dexter..." I nervously looked at Violette.
Violette held my hand. "Think about it. Dexter is a genius. He’s so smart. He probably wasn’t even in the car to begin with. How else could everyone else be in the car but him? It’s considered a good thing they can’t find Dexter."
I nodded with teary eyes.
It was a good thing they couldn’t find Dexter, indeed.
Maybe Dexter had already found a way to get out of the car..
Dexter was a smart guy.
"Go over there."
"This way!""
Several suspicious people appeared at the hospital. They were holding photos and looking for soone.
I knew they were Martin’s n. They wouldn’t give up so easily.
Especially considering what Damien said. If it was true that I had injured Dax and Martin, then Martin probably had even more reason to kill .
Violette was nervous. "Sophia, these people are crazy. They’ve actually co to the hospital."
"Crazy, indeed," I said in a low voice.
Ignatius had left the world, and Dexter’s life was uncertain. As long as Martin got rid of , the vast wealth of the Blacks would fall into his hands,
It was much easier than risking his life to earn illegal money.
"Money can magnify the evil in human nature." I pulled Violette into a consultation room and hid among a group of people waiting in line.
Damien glanced at . "I’ll go lead them away."
I frowned. Those people were professional rcenaries. If he couldn’t even beat Dexter, what was the point of going over?
However, those n had already co over, I could only lower my head and hide in the crowd.
Damien bumped one of the n and quickly ran out. He was trying to drew their attention away.
Violette and I hid for a while. After confirming that there were no more suspicious individuals, I took Violette through the safe passage to the underground parking lot and left.
"Squeak!" Suddenly, a car rushed toward us.
"Be careful!*
"Sophia!"
Both of us subconsciously at each other away.
I looked at the approaching headlights in horror and then closed my eyes weakly.
The headlights were giving a severe headache.
"Damien!" Just as the car was about to hit us, a black rcedes rushed from the side and crashed into the car.
The one in the parking lot who rushed out and shouted at Damien was Juliet.
She just wouldn’t give up. Was she here to find Damien?
"Damien!" Juliet cried and ran to check Damien’s injuries by the car. Damien vned and shouted at and Violette. "Get in the car quickly!"
Juliet hurriedly got in Damien’s passenger seat in a gesture of asserting her dominance. "Sofia, Violette, get in quickly."
Violette ca to her senses from shock. Between nausea and survival, the two of us decided to choose survival and got into Damien’s car
"I can’t get rid of them." Damien looked at the rearview mirror.
Violette and I turned around and saw a black SUV following us.
"Be careful!"
Just as our car got onto the highway, the SUV rushed up.
With a bang, the car crashed through the guardrail.
"Sophia!"
My consciousness began to blur, and my vision started to darken.
"My child..." In the mont of impact, I curled up out of motherly instinct to protect the baby in my belly.
Still, I felt a worm sensation below .
No.
I didn’t want to lose this child. Dexter wanted this child so much.
