Chapter 690 What’s Your Relationship With Him?
Stephen forcefully pushed Lincoln aside and raised the chain, swinging it towards Archie! The live chain fell onto the theater seats, conducting electricity through seat after seat to Archie’s feet!
Archie quickly raised his phone, wanting to smash the control system! Bang. There was a gunshot! The bullet missed!
“Lincoln, take Zayla away quickly!”
The iron door opened. Lincoln carried Záyla off horizontally, retreating toward the back door of the theater! The curtains were torn down that instant! Bang. Bang. Chaos reigned, and all debris became a shelter.
Archie took out the detonator! “Run!” Stephen shouted in alarm! Suddenly! All seemed frozen. Glass shattered! A bullet pierced Archie’s forehead! A fatal blow!
As the detonator fell, Stephen rushed forward, catching it as he collapsed. Police stormed in, guns aimed at Archie lying in a pool of blood! Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Another team conducted bomb disposal! Stephen was helped up. Archie let out a laugh, blood gushing from his mouth, as he took his final breath. “Lincoln…” Zayla called out, “Stephen…”
“He’s fine.” She breathed relief. “What about you…” “I’m fine too.” Zayla struggled to twist her lips, raising her hand to touch his cheek. “Lincoln, I feel awful.”
“Don’t be afraid, I’ll take you to the doctor.” He lowered his head, kissing her forehead, and carried her step by step toward the door.
By now Zayla’s last bit of strength was exhausted. In this familiar embrace, she drifted in and out of consciousness. Bang.
Until a jolt, but the arms holding her remained steady. She lacked the strength to open her eyes and slipped into a coma… The moment Lincoln walked out the theater door, his right knee slammed to the ground, but his hands didn’t let Zayla All eyes turned towards them! Looking back, his path was marked by droplets of blood.
“Zayla!” “Lincoln!”
Stephen rushed over immediately! Soon, the police and paramedics came to their aid.
Zayla, Lincoln and Stephen were loaded into an ambulance and rushed to the hospital! When Zayla woke up, her whole body felt heavy.
The pungent smell of disinfectant brought her to full consciousness, and memories flooded back. She remembered what had happened at the theater! Lincoln! Stephen! She threw off the covers, her hands wrapped in bandages, and a sharp pain made her gasp for breath.
But she ignored the pain and hurriedly rushed out of the ward. Coincidentally, a nurse was doing rounds at that moment. “You’re awake. How do you feel?” Zayla instinctively tried to gesture, but then she suddenly realized… she could speak?
“I’m fine,” she replied. Her voice was dry but finally able to make a sound.
Her eyes welled up with tears, but she brushed them aside and anxiously asked, “Where is he?” “Are you referring to the man who was brought to the hospital with you?”
Zayla nodded. “He’s in the first ward over there.” “How is he doing?” “His condition is much worse than yours.
He was exposed to electric currents for a prolonged period. Although within the tolerable limits of the human body, the repeated shocks have taken a toll on his skin, respiratory system, heart, and even
his central nervous system. He will need to remain in the hospital for further
observation,” the nurse explained.
Zayla’s heart sank, and she trembled as she expressed her gratitude before rushing in the direction pointed out by the nurse.
However, the nurse quickly intercepted her. “Though you’re not badly hurt, you’re weak… you need rest!”
“But… I want to see him…”
“Then let me register you. What’s your relationship with him?” Zayla considered saying “boyfriend,” but
after careful thought, she chose a more legitimate and persuasive relationship that would carry greater weight.
