Chapter 293 The Dead and the Injured

In the venue, Alex led Rosalyn to the door gradually. He embraced her body ruthlessly and held her to control the situation in his hand. He knew that the man behind the whole scene was crazy, and he could hide bombs everywhere.

"Even if you have a helicopter or a guard, you can't beat our men. Release Rosalyn."

Brandon said anxiously. He looked at the hostage with annoyed eyes. He always hated women who are dragging men down. Elly and Rosalyn are a burden to the people around them. He hates them both!

"Go, go!" Alex shouted as he raised his gun and hit Brandon in the shoulder. He held Rosalyn's arm in one hand, dragged her away, and let the five people behind him became motionless for fear of hitting her.

Brandon fell, the gun in his hand flew away, and he looked around on guard. Brandon ran from the post to Alex and hit a man who disobeyed orders in the chest and tried to shoot him.

The gunshot and the sudden appearance of Brandon plunged the situation into chaos. Alex pushed Rosalyn forward as soon as he touched the threshold.

One-shot hit him in the hand, keeping the detonator on the floor of the stream. Four men rushed to chase Alex Hargreaves.

Rosalyn fell on the floor, feeling wet between her legs and a sense of panic engulfed her mind. Because the wedding dress is red, even if the blood comes out, she can't see it clearly.

"Brandon, help me!" She shouted to Brandon who stood up.

Brandon stood up and saw at a glance that Rafael, who was crawling, headed to the secondary door of the meeting hall, and the blood was pulling into a long trace on the floor. He knew that there will be a car when he comes out of there.

Before he ran away, Brandon smiled. He bent down to pick up the gun and spat out every word slowly. "Weak people run away and give up on their teammates, people like them should die."

Creak.

Rafael was shot through the back and fell to the ground. Even if he's dead, he doesn't know who killed him.

"Brandon stop! What are you doing? Don't you dare kill anyone without the permission of your boss?" Rosalyn stammered and was afraid of Brandon's ruthlessness.

As he turned to her eagerly, Rosalyn shook her head in horror. "You can't. I am protected with the master's name. Don't you dare?"

Looking at Rosalyn's horrified face, he giggled. When he reminisced about the time when he just got out of prison, he gritted his teeth in anger.

"Haven't you always despised me in front of your boss? Aren't you ashamed to beg me now? Just because you are a woman who got pregnant with the boss's child when you were drunk, you always showed contempt for the people around you?" Pointing a gun at Rosalyn's temple, he shouted.

Rosalyn reflected on her actions. She bent down to get out of the way, put her arm on her lap, and then stopped. The helplessness in her eyes evidently showed as it sparkled in tears. She bowed her head and began to cry.

"I'm sorry! I was wrong I was wrong. Give me a break. I have a baby!"

He looked at her in disgust, his cold face turned and his bloody gun in his hand.

Rosalyn looked at his cold back, and she knew that he had been against her in the whole plan, even if the two of them were on the same side. As she watched the drop of blood followed in his footsteps, the insult just got blurred Rosalyn's reason. She hugged the fluffy skirt dress and pulled the pistol out that's been hidden on her calf.

With hate in her eyes and the fate of red lips passed by, Rosalyn held her fingers angrily.

Bang!

Brandon twitched and fell to the ground. The blood flowed out of his back, and his hand trembled as if he wanted to get up. The gun in his hand hit the ground, about a meter away.

As he held the gun in both hands, with trembling hands, Rosalyn became pale and clung to the red carpet on both sides of the row. She stood up askew and approached him to step by step.

Behind the wedding dress that was spotted in blood-red. Rosalyn seemed to forget the child inside her belly. Evilness occupied her whole heart.

"Miss Rosalyn, don't do it. I beg you please, don't be too cruel." Brandon stared, not believing that the girl who had just cried and begged him could pick up a gun in an instant.

A sound came from the dungeon!

As she staggered to and from, the two people rose together, and a figure rushed from the door of the hall. Brandon was sprawled on the floor, the blood from his body was close to the shoes of the person who had just appeared, and he turned to the direction. As the figure approached Rosalyn, she recognized the slap in her face and rendered her not to speak.

"Idiot! Do you know what you just did?"

Rosalyn's body fell to the ground and stared at the person in front of her.

"Do you know what he just did? He just tried to kill me."

"A useless woman like you doesn't have courage." Rosalyn sounded contemptuous, and the man who shook his head ordered his men.

"Let her went back to the villa first."

"Brandon! Hey, you, asshole!" Aron yelled at the man and she rushed over to tear him to pieces, but she lost too much blood to stand up. "He wants to kill the baby in my belly. He's your child. Aren't you going to do something?"

Brandon has a flat body as cold as a steel, and there is no warmth around Elly. He threw his eyes as if he were looking at something dead. He's bored, cold voice reverberated in Rosalyn's ear.

"Do you think I would have touched you if it hadn't been for that stupid night? Is a woman I saved from a brothel worth climbing into my bed?"

The truth spurted out from Aron's mouth, exposing Rosalyn's dirty past. Her tears came out unconsciously, her white eyes became full of hatred, and she looked at him as if she wanted to eat him alive, her body trembling with grief.

Two men followed Aron's orders and came to Rosalyn. His voice of disdain and dissatisfaction was deeply involved in the hatred of Rosalyn.

"You can't just stall that useless Alex Hargreaves. How many traps and bombs have I designed to deal with the obstacles in the way." He watched helplessly as the stock transfer contract fell to the ground. He gritted his teeth, turned, and walked out the door.

Like a sharp knife stabbed into Rosalyn's heart, she did not cooperate with two of her staff. Knowing that she was pregnant with the boss's son, the two embarrassed men turned blue and dared not to use their strength.

Aron left first. Without seeing the sound of her feet that followed him, he turned around. He stared at Rosalyn and shouted.

"Tie her up or knock her out. This will prevent her from playing any tricks."

Rosalyn threw herself on the floor and played the detonator in the pipe. There was a loud cry in front of him, and Aron was immersed in the sound of a small explosion at the door of the auditorium.

Aron's eyes squinted, and he yelled at Rosalyn. "You stupid woman!" He shouted ferociously.

He was the man in charge of the bomb location. He knew very well that the building would not explode immediately, but he was not sure how long the pillars in the hall would last.

The two men held Rosalyn in the armpit. They put her down and ran past Aron with her legs wobbled. Her screams cannot be louder than her fear of death.

Rosalyn disagreed with the result. She obediently followed Aron and was dragged. She stood up and hurriedly put her arm around his shoulder.

The two of them helped each other out of the meeting, and the explosion of half the building chased behind them. The bomb stopped with the collapse of the wall. Aron knew that he didn't plant the bomb to kill himself, so he just planted some scary explosives.

Outside the venue, as the wedding guests trampled on each other and ran away, the purple lavender forest was completely flattened and deserted.

The two groups of people in black clothes fought. After being shocked by the bomb for a few seconds, since they were far away, they were not affected and were still alive together. They are all subordinates who have followed the boss for many years, and their loyalty is different from the two timid men Aron has just fled.

"Alex had a helicopter. Did we prepare it or...?" Rosalyn stammered as she turned pale due to the pain in her belly.

"I did not prepare a helicopter." Aron gritted his teeth, and in the end, Alex was one step ahead of him.

Aron led Rosalyn out of the ramshackle building. He dared not to make a detour because he was afraid of hitting the bomb that was scattered around the vicinity.

A burst of tearing wind came to her ears, and Aron sat down vigilantly. Rosalyn knelt suddenly on the ground and her groans grew louder and louder.

"Aron! Don't let Rosalyn lie to you. She is a bad person who ruined my wedding and installed bombs inside the auditorium." Elly was out of breath because she rushed into Rosalyn's side by mistake and explained to Aron completely unaware that he's the mastermind behind that orchestrated a devious scheme.

"Elly?" Aron was startled. He didn't expect to encounter Elly in a situation like this. His body unwittingly came forward to touch her, completely forgetting that Rosalyn held her painful belly behind him.

"Are you okay? Are you hurt?"

Elly could not help but felt at ease with him. With five iron bars in her hand, she couldn't wait to ask him. "I'm fine. Have you seen Alex?"

"Haven't you seen Alex Hargreaves?" Aron's eyes were gloomy when he was rejected by Elly, and his voice looked particularly sounded surprised.

"He told me to run outside before the bomb goes off."

When Rosalyn rushed to push her and tried to fight Elly, her sentence was interrupted.

"Elly, you are terrible. Alex is not enough for you to bait. Do you still want to seduce the father of my son?" Rosalyn shouted as soon as she saw Aron supported her body and was tightly hugged by him to prevent Rosalyn from attacking Elly.

"Your baby? Are you pregnant? He's the father?" Elly instinctively retreated some distance, turned her eyes to Aron, and stared at the two. She looked suspiciously at Rosalyn's bloody dyed shoes and said hurriedly. "Rosalyn! You're bleeding profusely!"

"Yes, I'm bleeding. I don't know if the baby in my belly is safe. It's all because of Alex." Rosalyn's explanation was pushed aside by Aron. She laid on the ground and cried.

"I'm pregnant, you know that, don't you? The bastard standing in front of you is the father of the child in my belly. He mistook me for you because he thought I was you."

Rosalyn cried madly. Aron held a trembling gun in his hand and pointed it to her head. He strongly tried to let her stop talking.

"Shut up!"

"Shoot me and your child as well." Aron had tears in his eyes and strutted to challenge. Aron was greeted by the fire of hatred that glowed in her eyes.

She turned around, looked at Elly, and laughed madly. "You must be shocked, aren't you? The man behind all this is Aron. He is infatuated with you to the point of stupidity. He longed to kicks down whoever gets in his way. He wants to kill Alex Hargreaves and wants to bring down your man."

"Shut up!" Aron rushed into Rosalyn and attempted to fire his gun against her head, but he was hit by an iron bar. The sudden action made him retreat and jump to the back.

Elly's cold voice sounded, and she had never used such a cold attitude towards him before.

He came forward but was scrutinized by Elly's keen eyes. It was his favorite look and her stubborn character. Aron, like the idiot Rosalyn, stood still. He stared at her, his finger on the trigger ready to shoot.

"Suppose everything you say is right, but this is Aron's business. What about you? Why did you hurt Alex? Did I treat you so badly that forced you to betray me? Aren't we friends?"

Rosalyn smiled with tears. She viewed Elly as an idiot who enjoys everything in life like a good person. "How can you understand that people like us will do anything to survive at the bottom of society?"

Elly was silent and could not understand what she meant.

"I hate you and took advantage of you because you are Emily Russel's sister. Also, it's because you have Russel's blood. Long ago, Emily Russel drove my family out of the country and forced us to live in a strange country. My mother and sick brother often need to be examined at the hospital. Do you know what work I have done? One day I did three jobs, slept for less than four hours and the cost of living was not enough. At that time, I was tricked into a brothel because I need to earn money to maintain my brother's hospitalization expenses while you and Emily Russel were happy to lie in bed and have a good night's sleep. Life's not fair." Elly was surprised at how heavy her words are.

Elly turned around as soon as she heard the news, and the iron bar in her hand fell to the cement floor that made a crisp sound.

"Aron is the one who saved me from that dirty place. He made me study, invested in me, and made me a celebrity. He avenged me, but even if Emily Russel was killed in prison, it could not relieve the hatred in my heart."

That revelation shocked Elly deep in her core.

"Your only relative, your own sister, and blood who tried to frame you died in prison. She died of being raped to death by a prison guard. I hope you won't experience her cause of death."

Elly hated Emily Russel for her contribution to Zion's death, but she never thought her life would end so miserably.

"Ms. Elly, is there anything good you can get from Alex's favor? Even if you are a single woman, you will have to eradicate all the thorns that have hurt you."

"Shut up!" The gunshots went off at the same time. Aron hit Rosalyn in the arm. He came over with an impatient look and took Elly by the hand.

"We need to get out of here before the second bomb goes off. The building is about to collapse and will spread up to here."

Elly punched him on the shoulder and struggled to escape. The scene of Rosalyn sprawled on the ground with her arms on the floor, tears falling bitterly on her face, she knew right then and there that Aron's evil nature in his heart.

"Aron, you are terrible! I didn't expect you to be so cruel. She has your baby in her belly."

Aron tugged her hands that made her body pounce on him because of impact. As his voice fell into Elly's ears, she knew that he's the devil.

"I just want a baby to be born from you."

"Even if I die, I won't give you a baby." Elly slapped him.

Elly's brazen words touched his bottom line and patience. His chest roared out his livid emotions. Aron's ferocious eyes stared at Elly, torturing her severely.

"Then go to hell!"

Aron threw Elly on the ground, raised his hand, and pointed the gun at her.

"Don't worry. I'll be right behind you."

Elly panicked, her hands and feet were numb and remained motionless. The pressure is so great that Elly can only watch him helplessly. Even though her heart and screamed in refusal to give up, Elly can only watch him helplessly as she waited for her demise.

The gunshot sounded and Elly fell to the ground, but she felt no pain and saw a warm body pressed on her as if shielding her against any harm.

The moment that she thought that she'll die, Elly could not help but burst into tears when she saw the ruthless face of her beloved man.

"Sorry, I'm late."

As soon as she got back away from her trance, Elly raised her hands and pulled her body away that's been embraced by Alex. She tried to hold him and saw that he was covered with blood.

When Alex's deep eyes full of love stared at her, the heartbreaking wail of Elly filled the air.

"No, no. No Alex! Don't leave me!"
