Married by Accident, Taming the Billionaire novel Chapter 451

Chapter 451 A Shady Relationship

Hearing the sound, Winger and the others rushed in, subdued the waiter trying to escape after the failed attack, and disarmed him.

When Cecelia and Remington rushed to Jersey, the latter was lying on the ground. His arm had been shot, and blood stained the marble floor.

Cecelia squatted down and anxiously shouted, "Jersey! Jersey!"

Seeing him bleeding on the floor, Remington showed a complicated expression. He had not expected Jersey to step forward to take the bullet for him and Cecelia at this critical moment. He immediately asked his men to enhance the defense and called the ambulance.

The scene was in chaos. Hearing the gunshot, Shepard had protected Cynthia in time. Rupert had also reflexively rushed toward Ariella. But he had failed to control his speed, so he had knocked her over and weighed her down on the floor.

Remington's men stepped forward to maintain order. After hearing the attacker had been caught, the guests came out of their hiding places. Then, they found Jersey, the president of Bowman Group, was injured. But no one knew what was happening, so they wondered about the reason for the assassination.

Remington pacified the guests and asked his men to escort them out of the hotel.

The people in Prosperity Hall had heard the sudden gunshot in Peony Hall. Petunia's assistant ran back and reported it to her. Only then did she know someone had attempted to assassinate Cecelia. But why was Jersey injured?

Maggie was also at the Taylor Group's celebration party. Hearing Jersey was injured, she ran out without hesitation.

"Mom, where are you going?"

Maggie didn't stop. Petunia noticed that her mother panicked upon hearing Jersey's name.

It was because of him again!

Was there some history between the two of them?

When Maggie ran out of Prosperity Hall and rushed into Peony Hall, she saw Jersey lying on the ground. His arm was bleeding due to the severe injury. She was so scared that her legs were weak. And tears welled up in her eyes. She wanted to check on her son but didn't dare to do it publicly. So, she tremblingly looked at him from a distance, feeling heartbroken.

Shepard bandaged Jersey's injury with a strip of cloth to stop the bleeding. After the ambulance arrived, the medical staff carried Jersey away with a stretcher.

"I'll go to the hospital with them!"

Shepard's hands were covered in blood when he ran off with medical staff.

Watching her son carried away, Maggie felt a sharp pain in her heart.

She did not go with the medical staff. Instead, she asked Cecelia, "Miss Linsey, what happened?"

"An attacker sneaked into our celebration party and accidentally injured Jersey."

"Is he seriously injured?"

Maggie felt sad for her son. The wound in his chest had not healed yet and now he got shot again.

"He was shot in the arm. Let's go to the hospital right now."

Cecelia made up her mind and explained to the remaining guests, saying, "Everyone, I'm sorry for the incident today. It's a bummer. We will get together and have fun another time."

After appeasing the guests, Cecelia and Remington rushed to the hospital, followed by Maggie, who drove by herself.

Seeing this, Cynthia chased after them.

After the crowd dispersed, Ariella, lying on the floor in the corner, angrily asked, "Aren't you going to get up from me?"

Only then did Rupert return to his senses. He quickly moved away and said, "I was trying to protect you!"

"I did not ask you to do it! And you almost killed me!"
