There was a dagger in the black figure's hand, and it was headed towards Daphne's chest.
Daphne was petrified. She stood rooted firmly to the spot without any ability to react.
"Go to hell!" The black shadow let out a roar as it pounced ferociously on her with his dagger, clearly trying to kill her with one blow.
Seeing as Daphne was about to fall victim to the black shadow, Fade who was a few meters away from them quickly reacted. He raised his right hand and let out a blow of energy towards the figure.
The energy cut through the air like a sharp blade and managed to penetrate the black figure's right hand and knife at the very last minute.
Accurately piercing the black figure's wrist, a streak of bright red blood spattered across the air. The black shadow then let out a cry of pain, and his body tilted to one side before he could throw himself towards Daphne.
Amidst the chaos, the black figure still tried to reposition himself and charged towards Daphne.
Thankfully, Fade had already rushed to Daphne's side quickly. As fast as lightning, he managed to land a blow onto the black shadow that knocked him onto the ground. Then, Fade gave the shadow a heavy kick on his belly, which caused the figure to spew out a mouthful of blood. He clenched his stomach and lay motionless on the ground.
After managing to stop the black shadow, Fade looked at Daphne and asked concerningly, "Dr. Tao, are you okay?"
Daphne regained her senses and shook her head to show that she was ok, but her face was still as pale as a sheet. She was obviously terrified as her voice quivered in fear, "Who, who is he? Why did he attack me?"
Fade's face darkened. He looked down at the black shadow on the ground, and pulled off the hood on his head, revealing a vicious yet familiar face.
As soon as they saw this face, Daphne could not help exclaiming, "Fabian, it's you!"
Fabian's face was full of resentment. He glared at Daphne and said with exasperation, "Daphne, it's you who caused me to be in such a plight. It's you who ruined me. It's all you..."
Daphne knitted her brows and wanted to explain.
But at this time, Fade said coldly, "There is no need to explain anything to such a person! He has long been out of his mind."
Hearing this, Fabian looked at Fade and said angrily, "And you're still here being self-righteous. You two are the damned couple who ruined me..."
Fade's temper was not as good as Daphne's. When he heard those vulgar words, he snorted and stamped directly on Fabian's injured right arm, twisting his foot mercilessly.
Soon, the excruciating pain made Fabian shriek wildly. "Ah, no, stop hurting me, no, it hurts too much! I was wrong, I was wrong-"
Seeing this, Fade snorted coldly. "Weren't you quite tough just now? Why would you admit defeat so soon?"
At this moment, Fabian was already in so much pain that he was immersed in tears and snot. He was overwhelmed by the intense pain. It seemed as if he was not as tough and ready to take all risks as he had imagined.
Fade didn't bother to pay attention to a weakling like him. He called the hospital security guards to secure Fabian. Then he called the police to arrest him.
Needless to ask further, Fabian spilled the beans immediately after he was interrogated.
Because of Chief Zheng's illness, Fabian was dismissed from the hospital, thus holding grudges towards Daphne. Teaming up with Department Head Zhou's family, he set up the blackmail and tried to get revenge on her.
With the intention of revenge, Fabian also hid in the hospital and observed Daphne's situation in secret, ready to witness and salvage her despair once she was humiliated. However, he did not expect for Fade to turn the tables again. Not only did Fade resolve the issue with Department Head Zhou's family, but Fabian was also revealed to be the mastermind behind this incident.
Knowing that his plans had failed, Fabian felt resentful. Thus, he hid in the parking lot to take revenge on Daphne himself, leading up to the incident that happened just now.
