Chapter 745

But eventually, everything came to a halt. Chloe came bursting onto the scene. She grabbed a rock, about the size of a fist, from the ground and hurled it straight at Claire's head. Her aim was on point. Claire's forehead took the hit, opening up instantly, and blood began to cascade down, blurring her vision. No one saw it coming.

In a reflex, Claire let the sword slip from her grasp. A sharp sting shot through her forehead as she touched it, only to see her hand smeared with blood. Pax dashed out as well. Chloe had acted so fast that Pax didn't even have a chance to stop her; the rock was already flying through the air. Seeing Claire drenched in blood, Pax hurried over, supporting her. Claire, seething with rage, ignored the throbbing pain in her head and reached for the sword on the ground. But Pax held her back. "Mom, you're bleeding. Let me take you to the hospital." "Pax, get out of my way! Today, I'm going to finish him! End him!" she shouted, her anger boiling over.

Meanwhile, Chloe dragged Connor away. They quickly returned to their own yard. Once there, Chloe couldn't hold back. "Connor, what were you thinking? Handing the sword to Claire like that? Are you trying to get yourself killed? Don't you know what she's capable of?" The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. It had been a close call. Connor stayed silent, looking like a kid caught in trouble. But Chloe wasn't having it. She punched him lightly in the chest. "Connor, how could you be so reckless? You're not alone anymore. You've got me, you've got a family now. How can you risk everything like it's a joke? Where's your sense of responsibility?"

Connor still didn't say a word. When Chloe looked at him, she noticed tears streaming down his face. It was rare to see Connor cry. Yet here he was, tears silently flowing. Chloe was taken aback. Her heart ached, and suddenly, she couldn't muster any more words of blame.

She stepped closer, taking his hand.
