Chapter 1127
“He’s still on the island,” she finally replied.
She opened her mouth again to tell Bernard that she had shot Tyler, but for some reason, she couldn’t get the words out. It felt as if something was stuck in her throat, silencing her
Bernard, hands in his pockets, standing outside the operating room, gave his bodyguard a cold command after a moment. “Go to the island and bring him back”
Hearing this, Liana’s tense body began to relax. Bringing Tyler back, whether to hand him over to the police or whatever, they would treat Tyler first. He was going to be okay, and she could use this opportunity to get away from him.
“Liana!”
At the sound of Eleanor’s voice, Bernard turned towards the elevator, just in time to see Cedric leading Eleanor and Hailey running towards them.
Seeing these three, his brow furrowed Eleanor hadn’t slept since she heard Liana was kidnapped and had followed them to another country, even wanting to go to Panama with them. Worried about Eleanor’s health, Bemard had gone to Panama alone after meeting with her and Hailey. Before he left, he had warned Cedric to take good care of the two women, but unexpectedly, he brought them here.
Bernard gave Cedric a cold look. Cedric, feeling his icy gaze, shivered. His eyes were clear, but showed an expression of innocence and helplessness.
In his mind, he grumbled about his brother, but his face wore a conciliatory smile as he approached Bernard “So, did we catch that Tyler guy?”
Bernard ignored him, turning instead to Eleanor who had reached Liana. “If anything happens to her on your watch, I’ll hold you responsible.”
Cedric mentally rolled his eyes at him, ‘Everything’s quiet now, what could happen? Besides, am I not capable of protecting her?”
Bernard seemed to think of something, his expression darkening “As long as you can protect her, that’s good enough.”
Cedric didn’t understand his words and frowned, “What do you mean?”
Bernard didn’t answer, his eyes softened as they landed on Eleanor’s worried face.
On their way here, Cedric had already informed Eleanor and Hailey about Liana’s situation. Seeing Liana sitting there, covered in blood, they were on edge.
They squatted down on either side of Liana, checking her over. Once they confirmed she wasn’t injured, they let out a sigh of relief.
After a few seconds, Eleanor stood up, pulling Liana into a comforting embrace ‘Liana, it’s okay… You’re safe now…”
Liana had been suppressing her emotions, but the sight of them brought tears to her eyes. Emotionally, she reached out and hugged Eleanor tightly.
She said nothing, simply leaning into Eleanor’s embrace, grabbing onto Hailey’s hand.
“Thank you…”
Dealing with Tyler wasn’t easy, but they had found her in such a short time. They must’ve put in a lot of manpower, resources, and money.
Liana felt insignificant, but there were so many people who cared about her. Maybe, just maybe, her existence mattered.
“Liana, you’re our family. You don’t need to thank us.”
Eleanor gently patted her back, her touch and words warming Liana’s heart. Unable to control her emotions, she hugged Eleanor even tighter, clinging to her like a lifeline. Physical exhaustion and mental torment seemed to ease in Eleanor’s embrace.
Like a big sister, Hailey gently swept the messy hair sticking to Liana’s face behind her ear, careful not to disturb the quiet moment
Time seemed to slow down, Liana’s tumultuous heart started to calm, no longer feeling panicked because of Eleanor’s embrace and Hailey’s gentle touch.
Once Liana’s emotions had been vented and her expression relaxed, Eleanor took her to clean up the blood. Hailey went to buy new towels and clothes.
