Chapter 148 Almost Got Hit
However, she didn''t know that a man in ck slowly walked out from behind a row of cedar trees.
Wearing a cap pressed low, he watched her leave away, with his hands clenched into fists.
The location of the cemetery was a little remote. Isabe walked for a whole while but still couldn''t find

any taxis.
Her slender figure looked even skinnier on the wide road where there weren''t many cars.
She stood there for a few seconds at a crossroad. Seeing it turned into a green light, she casually
stepped forward.
All of a sudden, a car appeared from nowhere and sped towards her.
Sensing it from the corner of her eyes, Isabe turned her head and saw a grey car. But her head
turned nk and she remained on the spot.
Just as she was about to dodge in panic, suddenly a ck car darted out from the side at an extremely
fast speed and stopped in front of her, blocking the car.
"Bam!"
With a huge sound, Isabe went back to her senses suddenly. She looked at the scene in front of her
with a pale face.
The man in the ck car opened the door and got off. He then quickly asked Isabe, "Miss Jones, are
you okay?"
Isabe looked up to him and instantly widened her eyes. "Can…Canon?"
At this moment, the engine noise suddenly increased. Both of them quickly looked over, just to see that
grey car had already sped away, leaving them no time to stop it.
Isabe looked at the car in disbelief, "He...just ran away like that?"
How dare he to do such a hit and run ident?
Looking in the direction of the car, Canon asked lightly with a stern face: "Miss Jones, did you see
anyone just now?"
Isabe frowned, "I didn''t see it clearly... He seems to wear all in ck with a hat, so I couldn''t his
face."
And the car was also so fast. She was too panicked to see anything.
Then Isabe sized him up and asked anxiously, "Are you fine? Did you bump into it? "
"I''m fine. Don''t worry" As Canon said, he turned around to check the car.
Isabe also followed along, then she find there was a hole on the other side of the car. Her face turned
pale even more, "It''s really serious."
A strong sense of fear suddenly welled up in her heart. If it she was hit just now, would she still be
alive?
Looking inside at the car, Isabe saw that the airbag had been ejected. This caused her to look
worriedly at Canon, "Are you really okay?"
Canon frowned as if he was thinking about something.
Seeing him say nothing, Isabe waved her hand in front of his eyes, and said with a heavy voice:
"What''s wrong? Is there a problem? "
Canon blinked his eyes and shook his head, "Nothing. I need call the police. Miss Jones, I might have
to let you wait for a while."
"No worries. I''ll wait." Isabe regained her calm and said with a faint smile.
Canon nodded and made a call, then came back to try restart the car.
Looking at the car that was seriously hit, she said apologetically: "This car belongs to yourpany,
right? Thank you for saving my life. I''ll take all these losses andpensation today."
Although she was currently in a tight spot, Canon saved her life today, actually three lives. So she
shouldn''t cause him any trouble from now on.
Canon didn''t reject her directly. He squatted down and checked the car while exining: "This is my
give you an exact number. I''ll tell youter."
Isabe agreed, "Alright, but thanks anyway."
Without Canon, something would definitely have happened to her today.
"Mr. Miller hired me to protect you, so your safety is naturally the most important thing. There is no
need to thank me." Canon smiled.
Hearing Christian''s name, Isabe''s smile slowly faded, "You noticed me as soon as I left thepany,
and you followed me all the way?"
Canon stood up, patted on the dust on his hands, and calmly said, "Mr. Miller is worried about you
when you go on a trip alone, Miss Jones."
Looking at the handsome man, Isabe chuckled: "You really listened to his words. If the car had been
a bit faster and you were crippled, would you have regretted doing this job?"
Canon was startled, then replied indifferently, "I don''t have a education background as good as you,
Miss Jones. This is my job, and the money given by Mr. Miller is enough for me to take the risk. Even if
I had an ident, I think he would treat me wellter on."
"Haven''t you thought about your girlfriend?" Isabe frowned.
Canon nced at her strangely, then said lightly, "She will understand me."
"…"
Isabe looked at him in disbelief.
If he really loved her, would he even make her worry? Would he take such risk? What did it mean by
"she will understand"? Didn''t he ever think of his rest life?
He wasn''t a soldier, who may sacrifice his life for their country.
Isabe really wanted to refute, but thinking that his private matter had nothing to do with her and
everyone may have different views, she stopped.
Canon probably would never thought that such a casual sentence he said directly changed his image in
Isabe''s heart.
After that she stopped talking. As she stood quietly at the scene of the ident, her mind kept on
thinking about the car incident. But the more she thought, the more she felt that something was amiss.
It was suburb and there were few cars on such a wide road, let alone people walking around. She
hadn''t seen a single person for a long time. Why did that driver seem to hit her on purpose?
Just as she was lost in her mind, Canon suddenly asked her: "Has anything strange happened to you
recently, Miss Jones?"
"Strange things?"
Considering for a moment, Isabe slowly shook his head.
"Such as being followed or something?" Canon''s gaze turned dark.
Isabe''s face changed, "You also think there was something wrong as well?"
Turned out she didn''t guess it wrong.
Was that someone who hated Tristan? He even followed her to Liverpool.
Suddenly she felt a bit of worry and quickly took out her phone to call her mom.
After waiting anxiously for a few seconds, the call was answered. "Mom?"
"Isabe, what''s going on?"
Isabe asked worriedly: "Are you home?"
