Chapter 843 Risking Your Life
"It's just bankruptcy?!" Spencer roared, "I've lost my power and wealth, so what's the point of my life!? Even if I die now, I'll let Lucia die with me! Arthur, I'll make you regret it for the rest of your life!" After yelling, Spencer bowed his head into Lucia's ear and said,
"Lucia, remember well, if you can't survive today, it's because of this man in front of you. He doesn't want to part with his family business, his glory and wealth, and he doesn't want to trade them for you! So you have to die!"
Lucia was unmoved by what Spencer said but could only let Arthur go in her eyes and heart. And even in this situation, hearing his voice, she could already calm down.
Arthur was about to say something when he heard Esmae's exclamation from behind.
"Spencer, you put the gun down! Don't hurt Lucia!"
Everyone turned around and saw that Esmae and Sophie heard the news and rushed over. Their faces were full of worry, and Esmae was even more anxious. It turned out that they just met a crew member in front of the door, and the crew informed them of the start of Lucia's rescue. They couldn't stay in the room with peace of mind anyway, so they entrusted the baby to the crew, and rushed over.
If Esmae didn't show up, Spencer might not have been so excited, but when he heard Esmae's commanding tone, his rationality disappeared instantly.
The woman in front of him had used him countless times, and had never fulfilled the promise she made to him. Spencer's resentment towards her was no less than that towards Lucia, and he also had the intention of killing her as a warning to others. When he saw Esmae, he raised his gun without thinking about it. To her, in an instant, before everyone could react, the gun went off.
Esmae fell to the ground with a bang, but she didn't feel any other abnormalities except the pain from the back of her head hitting the ground. There was a buzzing sound in her ears, but she still heard Arthur and Otis' anxious and painful shouts.
"Mom!"
After that was Edwin's heartbreaking voice. "Sophie!"
Sophie?
Esmae blinked and felt her hands were wet. When she came back to her senses and looked down, she saw Sophie lying on her. Her usual gentle face was as pale as a piece of white paper. With drips of cold sweat on her face, she glanced at her slowly, showing a weak smile. Esmae seemed to see her squirming her lips and said,
"Esmae, uncle and aunt's life, I have given it back to you."
"Sophie!" Esmae exclaimed, raised her hand to stand up, but found that her hand was soaked in blood, so hot, so red. It belonged to Sophie!
"Mom!" Arthur's eyes were bloodshot, and together with Otis and his father, he carried his mother over, only to see a huge blood hole on Sophie's left shoulder, with blood bubbling from it.
Esmae was shocked. Looking at the blood on her hands trembling all over, she was still thinking about the last words Sophie said to her in her ears.
At this time, Chris came over and hugged his trembling wife. He looked at Sophie worriedly, but didn't expect that she really gave up her life to block a shot for his wife. The situation was critical at that moment, and everyone couldn't react in time. When the sound rang, they only saw Sophie jumping towards Esmae.
Although his wife was fine, Chris didn't feel lucky at all, but felt extremely guilty. Esmae was the same. Until now, she was still in shock.
When everyone rushed to Sophie to check the situation, Spencer hijacked Lucia and moved quietly towards the deck. Lucia's eyes were full of tears, and her face looked painful. If Spencer hadn't said in her ear, "If you struggle, the next one will be Arthur", she had already fought hard.
Seeing his mother's pale face in a coma, no one blamed himself more than Arthur. The reason why he dared to bring everyone to arrest Spencer was that they were equipped with complete equipment, and everyone was wearing bulletproof vests, but the appearance of his mother caught them off guard. Spencer's madness was even more unbelievable.
Fortunately, Gene and Nick had always been fully equipped, and there will be no lack of hemostatic bandages on their bodies. At the very least, after simple treatment, the blood that kept gushing out of Sophie's wound was temporarily sealed. Sophie woke up in the voice of her husband and sons.
Severe pain came from the wound, and the sweat on Sophie's forehead fell like beans dropping down. It was too late to appease the anxiety of her husband and sons, but Sophie stared at Spencer who was quietly leaving with her confused eyes. After she wriggled several times, her lips were so painful that she couldn't make a sound, and when she made a sound, she moaned in pain.
"Mom, don't talk. We'll send you back for rescue right away!" Men do not easily shed tears when it doesn't reach the point of grief. At this time, Arthur's eyes were red, and seeing his mother's weak appearance, he supported her with shame.
After speaking, Otis next to him shouted,
"Where are the medical staff?! Why haven't they arrived yet?!"
Sophie couldn't listen to what they said, so she just stretched out her hand to hold her husband's arm tightly, staring at Spencer's direction. Edwin and Sophie had known and loved each other for many years, and he saw her intention at a glance. He immediately turned his head and looked, but he saw that Spencer had taken advantage of the chaos to take Lucia out of the bilge. And he just disappeared around the corner of the stairs.
"Arthur! Otis! Calm down!" Edwin yelled, and immediately stopped the two sons. "Don't forget that Lucia is not out of danger yet. Your mother is under my care. Take someone to rescue Lucia. Don't Let Spencer go!"
As soon as Edwin yelled, everyone realized that they had forgotten Spencer's existence in a panic. But even so, Arthur didn't move immediately. Behind him was the woman he loved, but in front of him was his mother, so Arthur couldn't make a choice.
Arthur didn't move, and the others hesitated even more.
Sophie couldn't care less about the pain at this moment. She slapped Arthur's arm with all her strength, and a simple word seemed to have exhausted all her strength.
"Go!"
Sophie's voice was weak, but also the most sonorous!
Sophie woke up Arthur. It was a fact that his mother was injured. If something happened to Lucia again... No, absolutely not!
Wiping his tears away with a hand, Arthur forced himself to calm down. Even though his voice was still trembling slightly, he said to Otis, owns this.
"Otis, you and dad stay and take care of mom. The others come with me to save Lucia!"
"Otis, too!" Edwin was worried about his wife, and he was also worried about his son. Arthur was not professionally trained like his eldest son, and he could only rest assured if Otis was with him.
