Chapter 519
Chapter 521: Chapter 520 Chapter 521: Chapter 520 Nara Gill was resting at home today; she didn’t check her phone nor watch TV but was reading a book in her room instead.
Thus, she had no idea about the events happening outside.
It was only when she heard someone enter and call her name that she reacted.
Walking out, Nara saw Mrs. Spencer.
Mrs. Spencer’s face was streaked with tears as she stared at her, “Nara, Gary is about to jump off a building for you p>
Nara was stunned at the news, “How could that be? Where is he? I’ll come with you to see p>
No matter how much she disliked Gary, no matter how much she resented him for not taking her seriously, in the face of life and death, these things seemed insignificant.
As Nara spoke, she approached Mrs. Spencer.
But Mrs. Spencer suddenly grabbed her arm, “No need p>
Nara was taken aback, “Was he saved by someone p>
“No,” Mrs. Spencer said through a flood of tears, “he’s dead p>
Hearing these three words, Nara froze on the spot, disbelieving as she looked at Mrs. Spencer, “How could this happen? He… how could he p>
Mrs. Spencer explained, “He said that you would never forgive him, that he could never be with you in this lifetime, so he didn’t want to live anymore p>
Nara’s tears began to fall.
She had never imagined Gary could love her this much!
If that was the case, why did he have to force her to be his lover in the first place p>
Nara’s expression became dazed.
Mrs. Spencer then asked, “Nara, look, Gary truly loved you very much, didn’t he p>
Through her tears rolling down her cheeks, Nara nodded, “Yes p>
“That’s why,” Mrs. Spencer continued, “will you go join him p>
Nara didn’t understand what she meant at first, but as she looked incredulously at Mrs. Spencer, she saw Mrs. Spencer’s hand, which had been hidden behind her back, suddenly lash out with a knife aimed straight at her heart!
Nara’s pupils dilated in an instant.
Time seemed to slow down at that moment…
Keira Olsen, not far away, felt that she was already so close to Nara, but these few steps became a matter of life and death.
She simply couldn’t reach Nara’s side in an instant.
At that moment, all that filled Keira’s mind was concern for Nara’s life!
Could it be the South Family’s hidden enemy? He had been secretly guiding the course of events for Gary and Mrs. Spencer… That person understood human nature too well.
Or rather, he understood Gary and Mrs. Spencer’s characters too well.
Gary, not getting Nara, would certainly take extreme steps. And Mrs. Spencer, having lost her son, had lost her sanity!
Nara’s death at the hands of Mrs. Spencer would sound perfectly reasonable.
It would seem like a crime of passion.
And none of it would leave a trace!
As if that person had never existed…
But if Nara were killed, Keira’s relations with the Gill family would never become stable! She would never be able to complete her mission! Never gain the South Family’s recognition! Never rescue her mother!
Keira’s face was etched with urgency, her entire being exuding a strong sense of helplessness.
She wished she could teleport to Nara’s side but was powerless to do anything; she could only watch as the knife came down…
Nara Gill felt like she was under someone’s control, unable to dodge in time.
She watched as the knife got closer and closer to her chest… as if she was already on the brink of death!
But in her moment of despair, a figure suddenly rushed over and forcefully pushed her away! Immediately, the knife brutally plunged into the back of the rescuer!
Nara Gill was knocked to the ground.
Stunned, she looked at the person in front of her… it was Austin Gill!
Austin Gill stood in front of her, stabbed in the back, and Mrs. Spencer immediately tried to pull out the knife, but the sharp blade was embedded in Austin’s bone and couldn’t be removed at once.
As Mrs. Spencer was about to exert more force, Keira Olsen arrived, kicked Mrs. Spencer away, and subdued her, then turned her attention to the siblings.
Austin Gill had a knife in his back…
Under such circumstances, instinct would normally cause a person’s body to instantly collapse, protecting the most vulnerable brain and heart…
But Austin Gill didn’t.
It was as if he didn’t feel the knife in his back at all; he was still standing there, instead reaching out to Nara Gill: “Barbara, Nara, did you hurt yourself when you fell? Brother didn’t mean to p>
This remark made Keira Olsen’s nose tingle for a moment.
Only then did Nara Gill snap out of it, she hurriedly scrambled up from the ground and ran to Austin: “How are you? Let me see p>
She tried to look at the wound on his back but was stopped by Austin: “I’m fine, little sister, don’t look… don’t scare yourself p>
Tears swelled in Nara Gill’s eyes as she sobbed and cried: “Let me see, how are you p>
“I’m really fine p>
But Austin’s strength gradually faded, and he was finally turned around by Nara’s tugging, allowing her to see the deep stab wound in his back.
The knife was deeply embedded in his body, with only the handle sticking out.
Blood slowly oozed from the wound… soaking his shirt…
Despite this, Austin Gill still covered Nara’s eyes: “Barbara, don’t look… I’m okay p>
As he spoke these words, his strength ebbed, and he gradually collapsed to the ground, dragging Nara down with him.
Nara Gill cried out loudly: “Austin, how are you? Don’t scare me p>
At this moment, Austin’s expression was hazy, he looked at Nara Gill and suddenly said: “Little sister, this time, your brother protected you p>
Mrs. Spencer was taken to the police station, arrested on the charge of attempted murder.
Austin was urgently rushed to the hospital, where the doctors announced the knife had punctured his lung causing a hemothorax, and it was uncertain whether he could be saved.
Keira Olsen stayed with Nara Gill, waiting outside the operating room.
Nara Gill stood there, staring blankly at the operating room doors, lost in shock.
After an indeterminate amount of time, the sound of high heels clicking urgently approached, accompanied by several footsteps; it was the Gill family.
Lady Gill and the Gill family head led the way, followed by Austin’s two older brothers, and then their bodyguards–a formidable group hurried over.
Lady Gill immediately asked: “How’s Austin? What happened p>
Hearing this, Nara Gill seemed to snap back to reality.
She looked blankly at Lady Gill, tears streaming down her face, and suddenly took big strides toward her, dropping to her knees with a thud: “I’m sorry, he got hurt trying to save me, I’m so sorry p>
Nara Gill wept bitterly.
Beside her, Keira Olsen clenched her jaw; at that moment, her phone vibrated.
She picked it up and saw a message from an unknown number: “Loser, did you lose so quickly? If Austin dies, the Gills will definitely blame Nara! You’ve squandered the Nara piece! Your mission is a failure p>
