Bernard immediately turned to see where the bullet came from—the woods.
At the same time, three SUVs came out of the woods and drove recklessly across the grassy fields. A man in a black mask poked his head out through the window and raised a submachine gun at them before firing.
The sudden attack caused everyone across the grassy fields to shout in terror. They scattered around the field while those who had taken a hit fell to the ground.
Bernard quickly pulled Hera up before digging out the bullet that had been aimed at their mat. He quickly pulled Hera along to hide behind a tent and was about to call Shaun.
Suddenly, Shaun appeared in an SUV. "Get in," he said as he drove toward them. At the same time, Samantha opened the car door for them.
Bernard pushed Hera into the car. Hera quickly moved to the side to pull him up, but Bernard closed the car door instead.
The second the car door closed shut, a bullet immediately hit the car window.
The loud bang caused Samantha to shout out in fright. But when she realized the car window was undamaged, she came to her senses and remembered that the SUV was bulletproof!
Just as Bernard got into the passenger seat, the three SUVs had already caught up with them as they ran over the numerous tents.
"Sit tight!" Shaun stepped on the gas while avoiding the crowd. He sped forward while bullets rained behind him, hitting the back of the car.
The sound of bullets hitting the car was just like raindrops pelting against the window.
Samantha hugged Hera's arm tightly and said, "I've never experienced such chaos throughout my time filming."
Hera noticed that only Samantha was sitting in the backseat with her while Wayne and Nicholas were nowhere in sight.
"Where are they?"
Shaun answered, "We didn't have time to pick them up."
Hera turned around and saw that the three SUVs were chasing closely behind. It was evident that they were their targets, so Wayne and Nicholas should be safe.
At that moment, Wayne called her.
