In the meantime, one of Solara's men broke the window of the Rolls-Royce and yanked Carla out of the car.
Carla gave him a strong kick in response. "Die!" uttered Solara as she pointed her gun at Carla.
"Ms. Lierger…"
At this crucial moment, a person swooped in front of Carla and took the bullet for her.
Bang!
Carla was shell-shocked as blood splashed onto her face.
When she came back to her senses, she saw Rogan lying down beside her…
Rogan suffered another shot on her chest and was bleeding profusely. Her body twitched a few times before she passed out.
Carla stared vacuously at Rogan.
Her heart felt like it was being pierced through by a bullet.
Suddenly, the image of Mrs. Borah getting shot by Shelley was evoked in her mind.
Subsequently, all her other tragic memories started popping up in her head.
She was fraught with resentment and hatred.
Due to her intense emotions, the back of her head started aching.
My head. It hurts. It hurts so much…
"Carla!" Having evaded the bullets in the air, Zayn finally arrived by her side. "I'm sure she'll make it. Don't worry, " he assured her.
"Get Naya over here. Quick!"
"Yes!"
The wind was getting stronger and stronger, signaling the arrival of a thunderstorm.
Naya brought a few people with her before rushing over to Rogan's aid.
"How is she?" Brandy was all worried.
"We need to head to the hospital now. The bullet was shot close to her heart. She's in critical condition."
Brandy hurriedly ordered his men to carry Rogan onto the ambulance.
"Let's go! A thunderstorm is coming."
Zayn helped Carla up from the ground.
Out of the blue, a thunderclap was heard.
Carla's face immediately stiffened up. She lifted her head up and glared at Zayn.
"You! It's all your fault! On the day of our wedding, you betrayed my trust. I was separated from my own kids because of you.
"How can the Giblo family be so callous and cruel? First, they took Mrs. Borah away from me. And now, they even want to take my bodyguard's life."
Zayn was taciturn.
She's starting to remember…
"Zayn, you'll pay with your life—"
Carla lunged herself at Zayn with murderous intent.
Instead of dodging her, Zayn merely closed his eyes.
At this moment, another thunderclap was heard.
Covering her head, Carla screamed in pain. There was blood coming out of her nose.
"Carla!" Zayn covered her ears and comforted her, "Everything's fine. You'll be okay."
"Brandy, get the car over here, " he commanded.
"We're still in the process of removing the traps on the road." Brandy responded.
Naya was unable to send Rogan to the hospital because of the traps as well. Without any tools, the bodyguards would require at least two hours to finish clearing up the road.
"This is taking way too long. We won't be able to save Rogan at this rate. Mr. Giblo, why don't we bring her to our clinic? We can provide her with the necessary treatment there."
"Okay. Quick. We must save her at all costs."
"Yes." Naya quickly brought Rogan over to the Giblo residence.
Under the lighting storm, Carla was behaving like a crazed animal. She was screaming frantically and pulling her hair.
Zayn held tightly onto her to deter her from harming herself.
Unfortunately for him, Carla's attack didn't stop there. She scratched his arm and even bit his neck trying to break free from him.
