True Love Deserves a Second Chance by Nox Shadow

Chapter 237 My Wife Can Only Be You

Seeing the car about to hit them, Alissa pushed Joyce out of the way.

The car hit Alissa, throwing her several feet. Her first thought was for her unborn child.

As she landed, she shielded her stomach with her arms, causing severe pain. She heard Julian's urgent voice, "Alissa!" He was by her side in an instant, his face etched with worry.

"Todd..." she gasped, struggling to sit up. "He's in the car... go after him!"

Julian saw the car heading for the gate and ran after it.

He grabbed the steering wheel, struggling with the masked driver.

The driver swerved to shake him off, but Julian held on tight.

Joyce's bodyguards arrived and stopped the car, subduing the attacker and rescuing Todd.

Julian held the trembling Todd, comforting him, "Don't be scared, I'm here."

Todd sniffled, looking at Alissa. "Mommy's bleeding a lot, Daddy, go check on her."

Julian hurried to Alissa with Todd in his arms.

The medical team arrived, placing Alissa on a stretcher. She clutched her belly, wincing in pain. "Dr. Martin, save my baby first. I can handle my injuries."
