"Don"t worry about me!" Janet shouted. Not many people could sacrifice their selves. But she, Janet, was about to do this soon.
When she thought of it, Janet smiled with a sort of relief.
Her smile had now shocked most of the people standing on the other side.
Brian frowned and kept his silence and everyone had little or no patience left.
"Retreat! Let them pa.s.s, " he started talking.
The local police chief immediately gave Brian an angry look. Although he was furious, he still had to talk respectfully, and said, "Major Brian, we have hundreds of people deployed, and if we surrender to a terrorist team of just a little more than a dozen people, people will laugh at us!"
Brian didn"t seem to hear what he said. He still ordered coldly, "Go back first."
Several soldiers of the Sharp Eagle retreated first, followed then by the Special Forces.
Seeing what was happening, Janet became anxious. She was ready to sacrifice herself, and wondered why Brain had to retreat right now.
However, she couldn"t talk with Brain, and so she could only find a solution to this predicament all by herself.
The gangster had put her on the front pa.s.senger"s seat in the car, and a man always held the weapon against her head on the backseat.
The car"s window was open. Right after the car started to take off on the road, Janet opened the door and jumped out of it hastily, with a courage she didn"t know where.
"d.a.m.n it!" The boss who was driving then roared, took out a gun, and started attacking Janet.
The bullet hit Janet"s back with a loud noise on impact.
At the same time, gunshots sounded everywhere, and the battle started.
Janet made a few rolls on the ground and the boss continued to attack her, shooting her in the leg.
When the third shot was heard, a pair of powerful long arms brought Janet up on her feet; Brain kept the woman in his arms and protected her.
The hard bullet hit his shoulder, Brian"s face turned pale, and he tightly squinted his eyes because of the searing pain.
The war between the two sides had offi
“Let"s go and register our marriage on your birthday!”
Marrying Daniel should have been her best birthday gift, but everything was ruined the moment when she caught him sleeping with another woman on the day before her birthday.
“He’s going to marry that woman! She... was my best friend!"
eard her speaking, they all shifted their looks on her.
"Jane, you"re awake!" Melody held her walking stick, and then slowly walked to Janet and held her hand.
"Jane, thank G.o.d you woke up! You scared me to death!" Viola had her eyes filled with tears.
"Kid, are you thirsty, hungry?" Vincent also stared anxiously at his one and only granddaughter.
Janet nodded, and said, "I am fine. Maybe... thirsty."
She glanced at their worried faces and her heart filled with warmth.
She remembered that when she was in Xiaxi Village, she seemed to have seen Daniel. Where did he go?
Had she imagined all of it?
No, Daniel had attacked Brain with a weapon. It wasn"t a hallucination.
Ella came over to her with a gla.s.s of water, picked up a cotton swab next to her, dipped it in a gla.s.s of water, and then pressed it on her dry lips.
Janet licked her wet lips, and said, "Mom... can I drink it?"
"No, you"ve just gone out of surgery. You have to wait a while longer before you can drink." Sven took off his mask and looked at Janet, who was for him the most beautiful woman ever.
"Sister." John slipped from Samuel"s body, ran to Janet"s bed, and then climbed on her.
Vincent quickly picked up his grandson. "John, your sister is not feeling too well, you can"t climb on her."
But Janet smiled at John and tried lifting her left arm, but felt it hurt.
