With a pale face, the woman raised her head and coldly scanned Lucas from head to toe.
The woman was Jazlyn.
"I remember you," said Jazlyn. "You're that prostitute."
"Damn you!" Lucas cursed at her and the thing poking his waist seemed to have poked him harder.
"Go!" Jazlyn gritted her teeth and glanced at the rearview mirror coldly.
Lucas also looked back and saw several people wearing black clothes rushing out of the cinema, while looking around. It seemed that they really wanted to find this woman.
"Are you scared? Hurry up!" Jazlyn endured the pain and shouted.
Damn it!
Lucas cursed silently. Then, he stepped on the gas and the car accelerated through the road. It went so fast it was like an arrow off the bow.
"Where are we going?" The car gradually disappeared from the sight of the group of people, unnoticed. Smelling the faint smell of blood in the car, Lucas frowned.
As a doctor, he was more or less a neat freak.
"Your home." Jazlyn looked relaxed, but her hair was wet with sweat.
"Why? No way!" Lucas glared at her.
"Because I have a weapon!" Jazlyn answered fiercely, "Just because I'm injured doesn't mean you will be fine. Even if I don't have a weapon, I can still knock you down. Hurry up!"
Lucas swallowed his saliva. At this time, he was completely passive!
'Damn it! I didn't see the movie and now I'm kidnapped on Valentine's Day.'
Lucas could not vent his anger so he just did what he was told. He stepped hard on the gas and drove straight to his apartment.
Outside the cinema, the group of people who were chasing after Jazlyn searched the streets but to no avail. Finally, they got together and informed each other about their search.
"She's in neither the south nor the east."
"Not in the west."
"We didn't find her on the north."
The leader nodded and said, "She's injured. She wouldn't survive tonight without a man. Let's go back first."
"Yes, sir."
"Copy that!"
Lucas drove along the avenue silently.
"Who the hell are you?" Lucas asked all of the sudden while glancing at Jazlyn's wound. The wound on her shoulder was not something that should be taken lightly. She was bleeding profusely. This woman seemed weak and her serious injury prevented her from throwing threats and curses. Lucas praised her endurance silently. He had never seen anyone like her before.
"Someone who can kill you!" Jazlyn pressed her shoulder and said, "If you knew too much, your life wouldn't last long. I don't mind making it shorter anyway."
"You..." Lucas was annoyed. He wondered whom this woman was working for. She had a bad temper and a bad tone. How could their destinies cross?
The car sped away along the road for more than 20 minutes. The sweat on Jazlyn's forehead became denser, her lips trembled, and her face became unnaturally pale.
She felt as if there were countless bugs crawling in her body, itching uncontrollably. "Hmm."
Jazlyn wanted to say something, but she was too weak to even utter a word. She turned her eyes and felt her breath slowly quicken.
'Why is that?'
Jazlyn was panicking, but her face was still cold and menacing. After thinking for a while, she understood what was going on.
Those despicable villains even applied drug on the bullet!
"Here we are!"
At this moment, Lucas's car screeched to a halt in the underground garage. He took off his coat and threw it to Jazlyn. "Put it on. Don't let others see your wound."
Jazlyn put the weapon back to her waist and picked up Lucas's coat to cover her injured shoulder.
