Chapter 451 Bullet


    Mnie’s vision cked out for two seconds.


    After a brief moment of disorientation, she instinctively rushed forward and embraced Clement’s emaciated body.


    “Clement!”


    She and Clement were the only ones in the room. His eyes were wide open, and a bullet had pierced through his temple.


    He wasn’t breathing anymore.


    “Quick! Someone!” Nathan''s voice echoed from behind as he quickly rushed over and instructed.” Protect this ce!”


    Mnie felt somewhat detached. The voices in her ears seemed unreal, and there was a constant buzzing in her ears. She


    watched Nathan''s bodyguards rush forward and encircle them


    protectively.


    “Mnie!”


    At that moment, sounds of struggle erupted outside. Jeffrey charged in soon after, running directly


    to her and embracing her.


    Nathan''s subordinates took the opportunity to start moving Clement’s body...


    Mnie wanted to intervene, but she felt powerless. Every step she took seemed to make her


    vision darken.


    Thankfully, Jeffrey supported her from behind, preventing her from copsing...


    She made an effort to steady herself and walked towards Nathan. She demanded, “What''s going


    on here? Do you even want me to know the truth?”


    “You''re asking me?” Nathan looked at her coldly, then nced at Jeffrey.


    “You told him Clement''s location, allowing him to take Clement''s life! Don’t look at me with such resentment. If someone indeed


    killed Clement, it’s because of you and Jeffrey!” Nathan finished angrily, then stormed off.


    The sound of the gunshot still echoed in Mnie’s mind, and Clement''s frozen expression kept shing before her eyes.

    She felt like she was trapped in a nightmare...


    When she finally regained some rity, she found herself seated in Jeffrey’s car.


    “How do you feel? I''ll take you to the hospital right away.”


    “What about Clement?” she asked.


    “Nathan''s people took him away. Don’t worry. My men are also following. They’ll take care of him. properly.” Jeffrey furrowed his


    brows slightly.


    Mnie leaned back In her seat and closed her eyes. She needed to stay calm!


    “| haven''t told anyone else about meeting Clement except you,” She murmured to herself, sorting out her thoughts.


    “If then there’s only one possibility: Nathan staged it himself.”


    it wasn’t you


    Before entering the building, she confirmed that Nathan’s bodyguards were everywhere outside. It was difficult for anyone to


    shoot through walls and kill a person with a single shot.


    “Don''t dwell on it...”


    Jeffrey''s voice carried concern for her. He couldn’t help but reach out to gently stroke her head. trying to ease her tension.


    “Where are we going?” she asked after a while.


    “I''ll take you to the hospital,” he replied, realizing she hadn’t heard what he said earlier.


    “Take me back to your hotel,” Mnie insisted.


    She didn’t need to go to the hospital for any check-ups right now. What she needed was a safe ce, preferably with a bed and


    a warm nket-she longed for that familiar sense of security.


    Her heart was still trembling...


    Jeffrey held her tightly. His Adam’s apple trembled as he instructed the driver to change direction.


    Jeffrey stayed with Mnie in the hotel room for a few hours. Byte afternoon, Mnie had calmed down considerably.


    She got up from the bed and said, “Pam hasn’t seen me all day. | need to go back.”Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    “You don’t have to force yourself. Just make a phone call and exin the situation,” Jeffrey said,


    reluctant to let her go.

    Mnie shook her head. “Pam needs me. It’s the same whether I’m at the York estate or lying


    in bed here.”


    Knowing he couldn’t keep her, Jeffrey instructed the driver to take her back to the York estate.


    Yelena finished dinner and began another round of treatment.


    After dinner, Pam wanted to talk to her, but Mnie instinctively went upstairs to avoid her. She feared that if Pam asked


    about where she and Nathan had been, she might copse.


    Back in her room, Mnie locked the door. She wrapped herself in the nket and buried herself in bed, hugging her knees


    tightly. But the more she hugged, the colder she felt...


    It was the first time she had seen a living person die in front of her!


    Clement''s terrified face and wide eyes kept shing in her mind...


    She needed to relieve the pressure. More importantly, she needed to maintain herposure!


    In the early hours of the morning, a strange sound came from the direction of the bathroom again.
