Seeing that, the bodyguards rushed forward to shield Arielle. However, one of the other men aimed a hard kick at them and sent them flying through the air. Arielle saw the blade moving swiftly toward her, but it was too close, and there was not enough time for her to dodge the attack.
A second later, she felt the blade slash her arm, and crimson blood flowed from the wound.
Watching Arielle getting injured made Vinson see red. He grabbed the knife from the man's hand and stabbed the latter repeatedly. I'll make sure that whoever dares to harm Arielle will suffer in kind tenfold or even twentyfold.
Vinson was out for blood, and three out of the four men wound up with severe injuries. Realizing that there was no way for him to complete his mission, the man who was not seriously injured shot Vinson a glance before fleeing.
Suppressing the pang in his heart, Vinson turned to Arielle and asked calmly, “Are you okay?”
Arielle noticed the worry and pain in his eyes. She shook her head and said, “I'm fine. It's nothing serious." The two bodyguards turned to her, their gazes brimming with guilt as they had failed to protect her.
“We're sorry, Ms. Moore. It was our fault you got injured.”
Arielle shook her head again and replied, “It wasn't your fault.”
Vinson hid the pain he felt as he gazed at her wound and said, “I'll take you to the hospital.”
Knowing that he was worried about her, she nodded in agreement.
Vinson did not speak Turlenese, so Arielle was the one who spoke to the doctor at the hospital.
The bodyguards took the opportunity to contact Morrison and informed him about the assassins. Recognizing the gravity of the situation, Morrison reported it to Dylan immediately.
Dylan paced in circles anxiously after learning about the news of Arielle's injury.
“Sybil, I want to go and see her.” It would be impossible for any father to calm down after finding out that their child was hurt.
