Night of Destiny ( Anastasia Tillman ) novel Chapter 1240

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1240

Silence had fallen upon the ward. Elliot was holding a sleeping baby in his arms. He just couldn’t take his eyes off her. She’s my second child.

It was four in the morning, so the sky was dark. Six black cars were traveling through the street. A man in the backseat of one car was resting his eyes. His assistant, on the other hand, was going through the files despite how exhausted he was. The few international cases were forcing them to stay awake and making them feel tense.

All of a sudden, a blanket of fog appeared out of nowhere, covering the whole street. The bodyguards slowed down in response. This fog was too thick to be a natural occurrence. Someone or something was waiting in the shadows for them. “We got a situation here. Stay alert,” the head bodyguard said.

The car came to a sudden halt, waking the man in the backseat. He opened his eyes. The bodyguard was telling him what happened. This sudden fog was no ordinary phenomenon. The whole street was clear just now, and there shouldn’t be any fog at night in this weather.

Just then, a blinding flash of light assailed them. Something crashed into the car in front of them, and a great explosion happened. “It’s a rocket launcher! Protect the VP!” Elijah shouted.

The bodyguard got out of the car. Elijah and Ren followed a moment later. They were escorted away with the bodyguard shielding them. Less than ten seconds after they were gone, a rocket launcher sent the car behind them flying up into the air. It fell back down and rolled a few times on the road.

Right at the moment of explosion, one bodyguard came to Ren’s rescue. He kept Ren underneath him and took the full force of the shockwave himself. The shockwave rippled through the street, and everyone felt blood rushing up their heads.

Elijah knocked his forehead on something, and it drew blood. His ears were buzzing, but still he went and searched for Ren. “Sir!”

The bodyguard protecting Ren was hurt. by the shockwave. He turned around, and Ren held the wobbling man. He told Elijah, ‘Come here and help me!”

Elijah couldn’t hear a thing, but still he went and held the bodyguard up. The other men formed a semicircle in front of the three of them and retreated backward while protecting them.

“Bring her here,” Ren ordered. The bodyguard brought the girl to Ren. Elijah tried to hold her, but the sight of his bloodstained face made her bawl even louder. Ren spread his arms. “Here, let me hold you.”

The girl finally let Ren hold him. His bodyguards were still looking around them. They knew this girl was nothing but a pawn of the enemy. This was not the time to let their guard down.

Ren took the girl over from his bodyguard. He then saw a red mark flashing on her back. It was the mark that a sniper was aiming straight at her.

“Look out! We got a sniper!” Ren roared. He swiveled around with the kid in his arms the next second. The red dot that was pointing at the girl was now aimed at his shoulder. Just a moment later, a bullet flew through the fog and pierced Ren’s shoulder. He staggered forward due to the impact, but still he didn’t let the child go.

Elijah quickly came to him. “The VP’s hit!”
