Chapter 412: Edward Got Shot (part two)

"Bah! It's only a fluke." Hawk resisted. However, deep in his heart, Hawk knew that he would never beat her in a fight. After all, during the whole fight, he was the one getting beaten, unable to launch an attack back. His original plan of taking advantage of her was in vain. The woman was so good at martial arts, but her skills with a gun were just as good. She had just displayed her shooting skills on a racing car. The colonel was so versatile, and skilled in combat. "

Fluke? But you sucked so bad. You showed nothing but arrogance and stupidity in our fight, which is why you failed." That said, Daisy cast a last glance at her opponent before she turned away, and walked towards her Edward, knowing nothing about the danger that was about to occur.

Watch out, Honey!" Before she knew it, she heard Edward's anxious shout. Edward grabbed her and swung her around, as a gunshot rang out and a bullet slammed into him. Scared, Daisy raised her head. She saw the scarred man holding a smoking gun fall to his knees, hands held to his bloody abdomen. She turned her attention to Edward, his muscles stiffened in pain. He whispered in her ear, "I'm glad I protected you from danger." His voice was hoarse and deep, a little louder than murmur. But Daisy was thunder struck and horrified. She trembled as she felt the moist and warm blood. An unspeakable fit of terror engulfed her.

Edward! Stay with me! Stay with me!" She held him in her arms, supporting his slowly falling figure. She never felt that his body was so heavy as a sack of lead. Her mind had gone entirely blank, as she shook her head crazily, refusing to believe what had happened. She said to herself, it wasn't true...

"Edward...No, stay with me, Edward..." Blood oozed from Edward's wound, and quickly his clothes were soaked with blood. Daisy suddenly wanted to cry, not knowing how to bring her lover back from death. Luckily, a voice was heard from the crowd, wakening all the scared soldiers. It said, "Call the ambulance! Someone do it! Now!" All the people present were shocked by this sad scene, but when Kevin gave his orders, they started moving quickly. Who would have thought that a man who had been shot could stand up and attack them? They were temporarily overwhelmed by the sense of joy brought by Daisy's victory, and hadn't paid attention to the criminal that escaped the net.

Mr. Mu! Mr. Mu! Are you alright?" Called Luke, who just got out of his daze. It was his duty to protect Edward, but now, the CEO was wounded and lying on the ground, whereas he was standing still, intact. A mistake like that was something that he could not accept.

Luke! Hurry up! Call Tom, hurry!" Daisy shouted to him, her pretty face covered in tears. She did not know how badly Edward was wounded, and the wound was on his chest, where she dared not press with her hands to stop bleeding. All she could do was holding him tight. She could feel his faint breath slowing down as she laid his head against her chest.

"Ro...Roger that! Mrs. Mu! Don't worry!" Replying to Daisy incoherently, Luke stumbled to grope for the phone, eyes filled with fear and panic.

"Daisy! We can't delay! If we wait for the ambulance, it will be too late! Hurry, let's get him into the hummer! We'll drive him to the hospital!" Kevin frowned as he spoke. This accident was caused by his neglect. As the commander of the whole unit, it should've been his duty to confirm whether the enemies were down or not. He blamed himself because it was all his fault.

"Yes, humvee...humvee...Hawkeye! You drive! General Gu, help me put him into the car!" Daisy was so panicked that her whole body was drained of strength. She did not imagine that he would suddenly rush forward, still less that he would be so determined to block the bullet aimed at her with his body. And the moment he passed out, he was still concerned for her safety. They said that at the crucial moment, one tended to reveal his true feelings. She now knew that he loved her so deeply.

"Yes, colonel!" Hawkeye answered immediately, and ran to the car. Their car was a modified off-road vehicle. It had good stability and safety at high speed. It would be nice to use it to transport the wounded.

For the first time, Daisy cried in front of her soldiers. At this moment, she was no longer the colonel whose tactics and tenacity were unmatched, nor the dignified tutor of the new recruits, but a crying, helpless woman. Before long, Edward was carried into the car by Kevin and a special trooper. Daisy helped him lie down, settling his head onto her chest. Her face was as pale as Edward's. The color had drained out of her from the fear.

"Daisy, don't worry! Mr. Mu is a strong man. He's going to be fine. I'll stay for a moment to clear the spot, then I'll meet you in the hospital." Kevin wasn't certain when he said Edward was strong, but he really did not know what else he could do besides comfort her.

Sure! It's going to be okay...I know it...He'll be fine..." Daisy echoed eagerly, as she laid a gentle kiss on Edward's hair. Like so many times before, she kissed him tenderly.

"Mrs. Mu! I've called Tom, and he asked us to bring Mr. Mu to the hospital. He's waiting for us there, " said Luke to Daisy. It was not hard to see how nervous and scared he was from the look on his face.

"Okay! Get in! We don't know where his hospital is. You need to lead the way." Daisy's voice was still trembling, but she had slowly overcome the helpless horror.

"Hey? What are you doing? Where are you going?" Just as Luke opened the car door and squeezed in, a feminine voice suddenly called. It was Michelle, who just woke up from her coma. She had no idea what was going on, but as she spotted Luke get into the car, she rushed to him, asking curiously.

"Get lost!" Luke glanced at her from the corner of his eye, and cursed coldly. He then slammed the door shut, and the car flew off like an arrow. It rushed at such a high speed that when it passed, the fallen leaves floated up and the air stirred.
