Chapter 440

In a moment of desperation, Felicia picked up a mace from the ground and swung it at Maxoil .
The weapon cut through the air and struck its target squarely on the backd The sharp spikes nearly sledded Mason’s flesh, leaving his back drenched in blood
He let out a wall and shot Felicia a furious glare before growling. “You’ll pay for this!”
With that, Mason and the two lackeys who could still manage to move propped each other up and Imped away.
With the danger momentarily dealt with, Felicia tugged at the brim of her cap and approached Myra and Dexter.
Dressed in all black and still carrying the scent of blood from the earlier chans, Felicia’s presence made Myra instinctively take a few steps back. In Myra’s eyes were a mix of relief and gratitude for being saved but also a hint of wariness,
Felicia checked Dester’s pulse and sighed in relief.
Thankfully, his injuries were external. Four fractured ribs , a serious head injury, and severe blood loss had left him in a
With the last silver needles she had, Felicia blocked key acupuncture points on Dexter’s body to keep him stable until he could receive emergency care. Once done, she stood up and left. She remained silent the entire time, not uttering a single word
Myra stared blankly at the slender figure in black. Her expression was filled with uncertainty, and she felt as if she had seen the person before. Her lips quivered slightly. With reddened eyes, she said, “ Wait . Who are you?”
Felicia’s steps paused for a brief moment.
The sound of police sirens grew louder from the end of the road, drawing closer and closer .
Without lingering, Felicia quickened her steps and left. Her tall, slender figure was soon swallowed by the darkness and disappeared into the distance.
The police arrived quickly, taking control of the scene and detaining the groaning thugs lying on the ground. An ambulance also arrived soon after
As Dexter was being carried into the vehicle, Myra glanced back into the darkness several times, seemingly searching for someone.
“Get on quickly! The patient needs emergency treatment!” a nurse called our, snapping Myra out of her daze as she hastily boarded the ambulance.
Racing through every green light, Dexter was brought to the emergency room in time.
For eight hours, Myra waited in a state of constant tension. When the doors to the emergency room finally opened, she rushed forward. “Doctor, how is my husband? Is he out of danger?
“Mrs. Fuller, your husband’s condition has stabilized, Fortunately , someone administered acupuncture before he was brought to the hospital, which gave us the time we needed to save him,” the doctor replied.
Myra’s mind immediately flashed back to the scene from last night and that figure dressed entirely in black. That person was wrapped so tightly that his or her face remained completely concealed.
If not for that person, she and her husband might have fallen victim to foul play. Without that person’s intervention, Dextermight not have survived long enough to reach the hospital, She couldn’t help but wonder who that person could be.
Myra’s mind was a tangled mess of thoughts, so much so that she didn’t snap out of it until the doctor called her twice. “Mrs. Fuller, one more important reminder Mr. Fuller may be stable now, but the head injury he sustained is extremely serious. During his recovery, it’s essential to ensure he remains free from any form of agitation . ”
“Alright. I understand. Thank you, doctor. Thank you so much.” Myra clasped her hands together in gratitude.
The doctor nodded and continued, “Alright. There’s nothing else. Mr. Fuller will be sent to the intensive care unit. Please remember to settle the payment.”
