Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 474: Two Different Things 

Caroline’s POV 

I had never seen the man before.

"You ruined my family. I won’t let you escape!"

As he screamed those horrible words, he ran straight for me, the knife clenched tightly above his head.

There wasn’t time to dodge the knife.I could only watch, frozen in fear as the shining knife got closer.

Terror, pure and unadulterated, gripped me so fiercely that I forgot how to breathe.

The man slashed down viciously with his knife.

But a split second before the knife made contact with my chest, Simon put himself between me and the wicked looking knife.

Instead of me, the knife flayed Simon’s skin open.

Blood gushed out in heavy rivulets, making a puddle on the floor.

A low, pained growl escaped his throat at the cut.

Elena, whom the man hadn’t noticed, crept closer to him and kicked at the man’s wrist.The man let out a cry of pain as he lost his grip on the knife.

Elena took the opportunity to kick him again and twisted his arm behind his back.

"Ah!" The man yelled out in pain as he struggled to free himself from Elena.

"Don’t move! Do you think you can escape?" Elena growled threateningly as she exerted more pressure on the arm she was holding captive.

The man trembled with fear at the dangerous look in her eye.

Vanessa ran to Simon.

"Simon, are you okay? Does it hurt?" she fired off one question after the other, her eyes full of concern.

"You don’t have to fret.This is a minor injury; it’s nothing serious," Simon replied softly, trying to ease Vanessa’s worry.

"You are way too impulsive! Thank goodness the knife didn’t cut any vital parts." Vanessa’s eyes turned red and she patted her own chest, her lingering fear evident in the way her hand shook.

The interaction between the two of them had my brows rising in surprise.

Turning around swiftly, I took out the first aid kit from the car and bandaged Simon’s wound.

"I’ll give you a first aid treatment, but it would be best if you went to the hospital and got it treated properly, in case of an infection." I reminded him gently.

It was something of a shock when Simon used his body to protect me from the knife.
