Chapter 201 A Tough Problem

Elise looked at Alexander standing in front of her; she found that he was someone familiar yet a stranger. Fortunately, she had worn her mask, so he wasn’t able to identify her.

“What are you waiting for? Get on!” Alexander repeated. Meanwhile, Elise hesitated for a moment before getting on the motorbike. Then, he accelerated, and the bike roared off into the distance.

They sped off in the darkness as she tried her best to support her injured arm. She clenched her teeth hard to stop herself from losing consciousness. He finally stopped the bike when they arrived at a safe location. “We’re safe. You can go now.”

She lowered her eyes and extricated herself from him. “I appreciate this. Thanks for your help. If you need a helping hand in the future, you can find me at Dragonweiss anytime.”

Meanwhile, Alexander carefully scrutinized Elise. He had mainly intended to pop over and enjoy the show, but unexpectedly saw the mighty and valiant boss of Dragonweiss with his own eyes. Truthfully speaking, he was in awe of her courage when she fired the shot earlier. This woman here disguised in a fox mask isn’t one to mess with.

“I’m quite honored to have seen the appearance of the boss of Dragonweiss. That’s worth my trip. As for the rest of it, I’m not one to ask for much.” Alexander glanced at her arm as soon as he finished his sentence. “You’re hurt! You should return home to have that wound attended to as soon as possible. I hope that we’ll be able to be friends with each other the next time we meet.” With that, he pressed the throttle and roared off without a backward glance.

As she tried to comprehend the meaning behind his words, Elise frowned slightly. In the end, the pain shooting from her arm shook her to the present and she didn’t bother to spare another thought to what he said. At that moment itself, she scanned her surroundings and flagged a cab to head to Dragonweiss’ private hospital.

As it was a wound sustained from a gunshot, she didn’t dare to alert anyone else. After experiencing the procedure of having the embedded bullet removed at the said private hospital, she ended up collapsing from the pain.

By the time she had regained consciousness, it was already the morning of the following day.

Elise gradually got up from the bed and noticed that her arm had already been dressed and bandaged up. As she rummaged around and found her phone, it was only at that moment when she noticed there were in fact more than ten missed calls.

At this moment, she came to her senses and immediately returned Alexander’s call.
