Chapter 852 - 852 Accidental Injury Unexpected Emotions

Chapter 852: Accidental Injury Unexpected Emotions Chapter 852: Accidental Injury Unexpected Emotions Fortunately, Candy Foster and Edward Hernandez were quite skilled, and Victoria Garcia knew how to dodge in time when her brain reacted.

The assailants were many and fast, appearing chaotic but incredibly brutal and merciless in their attacks, aiming for vital spots with each strike.

With the assailants being too numerous, Candy Foster couldn’t break free to help.

Victoria’s skills were clearly much weaker; if it hadn’t been for Edward coming to her aid, she would have been injured.

At that moment, Edward was attacked by the remaining assailants.

Though he was quick, he couldn’t withstand the onslaught from so many attackers, especially since they were all armed with knives, and Edward was unarmed.

Victoria saw one of the thugs swinging a knife at Edward, who was unable to defend himself. Without thinking, she pushed Edward aside and took the blow for him.

Edward turned around and, with incredible speed, pulled Victoria’s body aside, but her arm still got slashed by the knife.

Seeing Victoria injured and bleeding, Edward’s expression suddenly turned cold, and with a fierce kick, he sent the attacker who had wounded her sprawling to the ground, immobilized.

At this time, the police arrived, arrested some, while others escaped.

Edward held Victoria in one arm and said with concern, “Why are you so foolish? I can protect myself. By recklessly jumping in front of me like that, what would I have done if you had been seriously hurt?”

His concern came with a hint of reprimand, leaving Victoria momentarily stunned.

Indeed, why had she so recklessly thrown herself in front of that knife to shield Edward?

“Even if I had been hurt, it would have been worth it. After all, I owe you my life twice over.” That was what Victoria had thought at the moment.

A life-saving grace must be repaid with one’s life, right?

That’s not wrong, is it?

“I’ve seen foolish, but never someone as foolish as you. You don’t have to repay the life-saving grace with your own life. I didn’t sacrifice my life when I saved you,” Edward’s tone still carried a trace of reproach.

But Victoria gently extricated herself from his embrace and said with a smile, “I didn’t lose my life, did I? It’s really okay, you don’t need to worry.”

At this moment, Emery rushed to Victoria’s side, saying with self-reproach, “It’s my fault for being useless, letting you get hurt, General Garcia.”

“You were surrounded by five people, and couldn’t come to protect me even if you wanted to. It’s not your fault, don’t blame yourself. I’m fine, see, my hand can still move!” As she spoke, Amelia Wilson even lifted her injured arm.

“General Garcia, please don’t move anymore. I’ll take you to the hospital right now.”

Paul stood to one side and said to Emery, “You go ahead and take General Garcia to the hospital to treat the wounds. I’m going to find out what these attackers were after. Causing such a scene in broad daylight is really asking for trouble.”

Without any further ado, Emery immediately took Victoria to the car.

Paul touched his chest where Victoria had just been lying; her scent still lingered there.

He had never imagined that someone would risk their life to save him, and her actions in that moment completely stunned him.

A feeling he had never experienced before rose in his heart as the image of Victoria rushing forward and the look they exchanged as he pulled her close played over in his mind.

Victoria Garcia!

This time, her name was truly etched in his heart.
