Chapter 661
Alexander was beside himself with worry, so he wasn't in the mood to think about that. "What happened to Everleigh?" "You've seen the video. You know who did it, don't you?"
"The Godfreys, what a pathetic excuse for human beings," Alexander said, somehow categorizing Theodore into it.
Back then, it had been the Godfrey family who had caused Everleigh's accident. If he hadn't made preparations in advance, Everleigh might have been in trouble.
However, now, she was treading on the fine line between death and life. How could he be at ease?
He feared that if she continued to stay with Theodore, it was only a matter of time before she lost her life.
Theodore did not refute. This was indeed the work of the Godfrey family.
"What would you have done if you knew it was your father's doing? Just let him go?"
Hearing this, Theodore snickered, as if he had heard a funny joke. The hatred in his eyes gushed out like a fountain.
"Let him go? Hell no."
Alexander looked at his sneering and felt a twinge of fear. Yes, he was scared. For a moment, he seemed to have beheld an enraged lion, ready to tear apart the hunter in front of it.
He felt as if Theodore would kill Wilson for Everleigh.
And on top of that, he would use means that showed zero mercy.
This time, neither of them opened their mouths to speak.
On the other hand, Wilson came to the foothills alone, with Christopher tailing him at a distance behind. The appearance of a vehicle in the secluded mountain would raise suspicion of the other side. However, just as Wilson turned the engine off, he happened to see Christopher's car.
With misgivings springing up in his heart, he started the car and drove forward, but this time, instead of going to the kidnappers, he took the other road down the hill. He came premeditated, and everything here was familiar to him.
As he drove, he called the kidnappers. "Kill Everleigh."
"Wait, what?" "I told you to kill Everleigh," Wilson growled angrily. He had been found out, and now, there was nothing left. Even if he had to die, he had to drag Everleigh with him.
The kidnapper hung up the phone and looked at Everleigh, who was on the verge of death. His eyes flashed as he said directly to his men, "Come on, we're bailing."
"What's wrong?"
"We've been exposed. Mr. Godfrey told us to leave them here. Well be caught if we don't escape now."
The other kidnappers didn't say a word, but turned around and went out. No one had time to care about this half-dead woman.
Christopher realized something was awry, and he quickly stepped on the gas and followed Wilson down the hill. He called Theodore and said, "Hurry up and go up the hill. I'm going after Wilson. He seems to have noticed me."
When Theodore and Alexander heard this, they immediately panicked and sped up.
Watching them run away, Erine was floored. They had no intention to bring the two ladies along.
She was even more distraught. If they left, she had no way to untie the rope and had to wait for death.
"Help! Help!" Erine shouted from the doorway, to which only her echo was heard.
"Is anyone there? Help!" She shouted louder, but there was still no other movement.
She burst into tears at once. What should she do?
What would she do now?
If she went down to look for someone, she didn't know what would happen to Everleigh.
She didn't dare to make that bet.
She didn't know how long she had been here. Suddenly hearing the sound of a car, she quickly looked at the door.
Looking at Alexander and Theodore who came over, Erine erupted with joy. "Theodore, please hurry in. Everleigh can't hold on much longer."
When Theodore and Alexander walked in, they saw that Everleigh's face was very pale. Her head was wrapped in gauze and she was lying flat on the floor. There was also a pool of blood beside her.
For a moment, Theodore seemed to believe that Everleigh had lost her life and was now, a dead body was lying in front of him.
The sight of blood stung his eyes. He wanted to walk over to it, but he didn't dare. He was afraid to confront what he thought it was.
Alexander came over with great strides. Seeing Everleigh lying on the floor, he hastily picked her up and cried out in a panic, "Everleigh, Everleigh, look at me."
Theodore came back to his senses only after hearing Alexander's voice. He hurried over and stared blankly at her. He reached out and touched her face, calling out, "Everleigh." "Theodore, don't waste time. She's got a head injury. Get her to the hospital quickly." Erine knew Theodore was anxious at the moment, but now, was not the time to waste words. He picked up Everleigh and walked out. Alexander supported Erine with his hands. Her whole body was in great pain, and she struggled to support herself.
When they arrived at the hospital, Maxwell happened to see Theodore walking in with Everleigh in his arms.
Looking at the bloodstains on Everleigh's body, his expression changed, "What's going on?"
"Dr. Harrison, please save Everleigh," Erine sobbed and said.
Maxwell didn't waste time talking. He quickly asked the nurse to push the cart over and said, "Call the neurologist. Go now." "Yes," the nurse immediately replied.
The group arrived at the door to the emergency room. Theodore's eyes were red as he grabbed Everleigh's hand. He feared that once he let go of her, he would never see her again.
"I know you're in a bad mood, but if you hold on to her and don't let her in, you'll only get her killed." Alexander saw that Theodore didn't want to let her go and hurriedly spoke. Upon hearing this, Theodore slowly let go and then watched as they pushed Everleigh along.
At the moment when the door was closed, Theodore's heart ached to the point of suffocation. He had never known that his heart could ache to such an extent.
Erine sat down on a chair and tried to rest. She was physically weak.
Just then, Christopher came in from outside. Looking at the wretched state Erine was in, his eyes turned red. He walked over and hugged her. "Erine, are you alright?"
She cried on his shoulder. "Christopher, what should we do? Everleigh is injured, and I'm so scared."
Hearing her sobs almost broke his heart. He lifted his hand to wipe her tears. "It's okay. God will bless Everleigh. Everything will be fine."
No one knew if this sentence was meant to comfort her or all the people present.
Theodore sat on the bench, looking dazed. His heart was filled with thoughts of Everleigh. If something happened to her, what should he do?
He did not know how to face her.
Erine's tears didn't let up, as trepidation consumed her.
When Christopher looked down and saw the bruises on her body, he quickly grabbed her hand and looked over at her. He could see patches of bruises on her body, and in some places, even shoe marks. "Who hit you? Was it Wilson?" He shouted, agitated. A murderous look came into his eyes.
Erine shook her head. "It's the people Wilson hired. They were all martial artists. One of them tried to harass us, but Everleigh hit the guy and... She got hurt. Christopher, I was scared. She was bleeding a lot at the time. I was really scared."
