Wayne followed closely behind Rosalynn, like a little puppy.
"You’ll be back in three days, right?" he asked.
"Something like that," Rosalynn answered. "You should go back to the temple. It's not cool to leave in the middle of the wake."
"I'm here to keep you company so Granny can be happy. What's wrong with that?" Wayne didn't back down.
Rosalynn felt helpless.
Just then, a car pulled over nearby.
Without thinking, Wayne put his arm around Rosalynn's shoulder and pulled her back a bit.
Suddenly, the car that was supposed to stop had a brake failure, swerved off course, and sped towards Rosalynn at an incredibly fast speed.
In the nick of time.
Wayne reacted quickly, shielding Rosalynn and dodged the car swiftly.
The car brushed past Rosalynn and slammed into a thick pillar, with thick smoke billowing from the front of the car.
Wayne held Rosalynn tightly in his arms and quickly glanced into the car.
To his surprise, the man in the driver's seat was covered in blood and still gripping a black object with a lit fuse.
With an evil grin, the man looked at Wayne and pulled the fuse of the object.
In a split second, Wayne tightened his grip on Rosalynn and lunged forward.
Just as the explosion echoed, he instinctively shielded Rosalynn with his body.
As the deafening noise subsided, Rosalynn's ears were filled with a piercing ringing, and she witnessed the people around her in a state of panic.
The bodyguards, who had been secretly protecting her, rushed over, shouting.
Wayne's bodyguards...
