Chapter 1244

But now, I had to protect her miserable life again. Itโ€™s ironic to think about.

Braylon happened to be at the hospital. He quickly transferred several bodyguards over. As luck would have it, when those bodyguards went past, someone just happened to be trying to kill Kimberly. Braylon told me that Kimberly was suffocated with a pillow at that time, and her legs were almost straightened. At the critical moment, those bodyguards rushed in to stop the murder. The only regret was that the killer slipped away from the bathroom window.

After listening to Braylonโ€™s account, I personally went to the hospital. When I arrived, Braylon was waiting for me at the door. His right arm had been put in a cast, hanging from his neck with a bandage.

I asked him, โ€œIs your arm okay?โ€

Braylon shook his head, his mood was very low, his face still full of guilt. But he didnโ€™t say much, just said to me, โ€œMrs. Humphrey, they are on the second floor of the inpatient department, Iโ€™ll take you up.โ€

I nodded and followed him towards the inpatient department. I asked him, โ€œDo you think the situation with Johnathan was handled well?โ€

Braylon fell silent for a few seconds, then shook his head. I sighed and didnโ€™t ask any more questions.

When I arrived at Kimberlyโ€™s ward, I saw Kimberly leaning wearily on the hospital bed. Her face was as pale as paper, and there was blood on her chest. The doctor had just finished treating her wound and walked out. Quentin looked at her anxiously by the bedside, his face full of concern. Compared to the injuries on Kimberly, Quentinโ€™s injuries were much lighter, as if he had just been injured on his shoulder. Kimberly glanced at me, as if she didnโ€™t even have the energy to talk to me.

Quentin was a bit excited when he saw me coming. He stood up instantly, looking at me with red eyes, โ€œRalda, are you here to see me? Are you still worried about me, right?โ€

Looking at his excited appearance, I just felt ironic and ridiculous. He didnโ€™t want this sibling relationship, didnโ€™t want this blood relationship, why did he have to show such a look at this moment?

I glanced at him coldly and said, โ€œYouโ€™re wrong. I just came to see if you were dead.โ€

Quentin immediately staggered back two steps. He lowered his eyes, gently tugged at the corners of his lips, and smiled, a smile that was full of sadness and self-mockery.

I didnโ€™t look at him again, I just said to Kimberly, โ€œDo you know who wanted to kill you just now?โ€

โ€œItโ€™s notโ€ฆ itโ€™s youโ€ฆโ€ Kimberly said, her voice trembling with anger, her eyes filled with resentment as she looked at me.

I pursed my lips. Kimberly was sometimes indeed clever, setting traps without a single leak. Sometimes I was really stupid, I didnโ€™t even realize I was being used as โ€œbaitโ€ by Matthew.

I sneered at her and said, โ€œThe media has already claimed that if you die, Johnathan will have to pay for your life. Do you know that?โ€

Kimberly suddenly laughed, with a hint of pride in her laughter. โ€œHow? Are you afraid that Iโ€™m dead? Because if Iโ€™m dead, your good friend Johnathan wonโ€™t survive either, right?โ€

I pursed my lips and said, โ€œYeah, thatโ€™s why I even sent a few bodyguards to protect you.โ€

โ€œSo, can you guess now who was the person trying to kill you just now?โ€

After I finished speaking, Kimberly just stood there in shock.
