Chapter 458 Take the Bullet
Rosaline’s POV:
+8 Pearls
I shook my head, a mix of disbelief and pity creeping it for Lilian. But there was no sympathy. None at all.
“Lilian,” I said, my voice cool and deliberate. “You need to get this through your head. You were the one who started all of this. If you hadn’t helped Wendy plot, making all those terrible decisions, if you hadn’t hired a hacker to break into our company’s network, we wouldn’t be in this mess.”
I let the silence settle for a beat. “As for the Moonveil Pack nearly going bankrupt, that’s on you, not me. If your actions hadn’t been exposed, you wouldn’t have ended up in the police station. And I? I was only defending myself. Seeking help from the law to fix your mess. Do you still not see how you screwed up?”
I spoke without emotion, but inside I knew this wouldn’t reach her. Lilian was not only stubborn but reckless. She’d only learn the hard way.
My words clearly pushed her further. Her face flushed crimson, her fists clenched so tight her knuckles turned white.
Before I could process what was happening, she pulled a hunting rifle from her pocket, aiming it directly at me. She slammed her eyes shut, and with a feral scream, shouted, “Then you can just die!”
My breath caught. Was she really going to pull the trigger?
“Rosaline, watch out!” Jasper’s voice sliced through the tension. He lunged, throwing himself between us, taking the bullet.
The crew was thrown into disarray at first, but my bodyguards quickly came to my aid.
The shot echoed like thunder, sharp and sudden.
The air thickened with smoke. When it cleared, Jasper was slumped against me, blood seeping through his clothes, staining everything.
I froze, my mind refusing to catch up with what had just happened.
