The Runaway Groom

The Runaway Groom Chapter 917

Bob hated Ricky for his betrayal, and he fired a shot straight at Ricky before the police officers could subdue him!

However, Martin York stepped in the bullet’s way, and the shot hit him on the back.

He was rushed to the hospital right away for emergency surgery, but the bullet was lodged too close to Martin’s heart. They needed the best heart surgeons to extract it, or the risk would be too serious.

While the hospital arranged for the surgery, Lulu Adams was still at home.

She knew about the operation today, and although she never received word, she was afraid to call Martin since she might disturb him while he was on the job.

When she had enough of waiting, she headed straight to the precinct, where the higher-ups were interrogating Bob.

Lulu’s worries eased, since it seemed that the operation was a success, and Ricky was the most vulnerable asset—he would definitely be killed if the crime ring realized he was the mole.

Finding Johnny, one of Martin’s squadmates, she asked, “How did the operation go?”

Remembering that Martin was still in the hospital—his fate unknown—Johnny did not dare to say too much. Averting his eyes from hers, he simply told Lulu, “It’s a success.”
