The Bride’s Revenge

Chapter 412 Aren’t You Afraid We’ll Take Advantage of You?

Marion took Nixon’s ID card and confirmed that the photo matched the man in front of her. “Mr. Carpenter, can you please recite your ID number for me?” Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Nixon immediately recited his ID number.

Marion nodded. “Help your friend up. I’ll take him to the hospital. Please hurry and follow us.”

Nixon breathed a sigh of relief and quickly turned back to help Dorian Lincoln up.

“Are you able to get up? I’ve found a kind–hearted lady to take you to the hospital. Come on, move over to her car!”

Dorian furrowed his brow and leaned heavily on Nixon. The pain in his stomach made him unwilling to exert any strength, so he allowed Nixon to lead him to Marion’s car.

Nixon placed Dorian in the passenger seat, fastened his seatbelt, and then tactfully closed the door.” Thank you so much, miss. I’ll follow your car closely. We’ll be there soon!”

Marion glanced at the passenger seat. Dorian’s eyes were closed and his brow was furrowed in pain. She nodded at Nixon. “I’ll take your friend first. Please join us as soon as possible.”

It was late at night, and Marion was not very pleased about being forced to stop the car and having to help someone get to the hospital. But it would only take a few minutes, she was sure of it.

She locked the car doors, started the engine, turned the car around, and drove back to the hospital.

There were not many people at the hospital.

Marion parked the car, but Nixon had not arrived yet. She glanced at Dorian.

He showed no intention of getting out of the car.

Instead, Dorian undid his seatbelt, turned his head, and looked at her. “Thanks, it’s getting late. You should go back. Nixon will be here soon.”

His voice was hoarse, perhaps due to his pain.

His words were casual as if they were already well acquainted.

Marion did not mind waiting for a few minutes. “You don’t seem to be feeling well. We’ll wait for your friend to get here, then you can get out of the car.”

Dorian was about to open the door but seemed to think better of it.

He turned his head and looked at Marion. He thought that Nixon had been teasing him earlier and did

not expect to see such a stunning woman helping him.

Dorian squinted at her. “Aren’t you afraid we’ll take advantage of you?”

Marion showed him that she had already called the police. “They would have been here in the blink of

an eye.

He smirked. “Bad guys won’t give you a chance to call the police.”

Marion was not pleased to hear his response. “Well, I would have called them if Mr. Carpenter had not insisted that I take you to the hospital immediately.”

If Dorian had not looked so unwell, she would have called the police immediately! Dorian did not seem to know how to appreciate kindness from strangers!

“Please don’t misunderstand. I’m just surprised that you’re willing to help.”

Marion was initially angry at him, but Dorian seemed sincere that she felt slightly embarrassed.

“It’s nothing.” It was just a short distance, and there were other cars on the road. If Nixon and Dorian had bad intentions, they would not have been able to pull it off anyway.

“Forgive me for being presumptuous, but-” Dorian’s words were cut off as Nixon ran up to the car, gasping for breath.

Marion glanced at Nixon and returned his ID. “Please take your friend to the hospital quickly.”

Nixon nodded. “Thanks a lot, beautiful lady!” He smiled at Marion and then helped Dorian out of the

car.

Marion breathed a sigh of relief. As soon as Nixon and Dorian went through the hospital doors, she drove away.

She had a scheduled voice call with Lucas at ten, and it was almost time! She was going to be late!
