Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 1395 Shot

Joe lunged to stop her, but as the gun went off, a dart zipped through the air, hitting the gun in Sadie's hand. It clattered to the ground, the bullet missing its mark. Joe dropped to his knees, his whole body going limp with relief and fear, sweat pouring down his face. It felt like his heart had shattered from that silent shot. "Ms. James," Andrew called, rushing over to take Sadie and the unconscious Annika away.

This time, Joe didn't try to stop them. He just stared at Sadie in despair, watching her silhouette fade from view.

He finally got it—she'd rather die than be with him. No matter what he did, he could never win her heart. Everything he did only made her feel annoyed and disgusted. "Annika, Annika!" Andrew cried out as he got into the car, holding Annika tight, his eyes glued to the bloodstain spreading across her chest. "It's all my fault for not protecting you." "Get to the hospital, quick!" Sadie urged, her voice shaking with urgency.

"Yes," Andrew responded, his voice firm but his heart racing.

As the sun dipped below the horizon, painting the sky a blood-red shade, Sadie's heart felt as desolate as the approaching night.

She blamed herself for not being decisive and ruthless enough, for her indecisiveness that dragged those she cared about into danger. First Arya, now Annika.

If anything happened to Annika, she would never forgive herself.

The car screeched to a halt at the hospital, and Andrew rushed in, shouting frantically, "Somebody help!"

Andrew had been by Micah's side for over a decade, developing a calm and steady demeanor. Except for matters concerning Micah, he had never lost control like this.

Over the past few months, his feelings for Annika had been ambiguous, and he always maintained a passive stance, seemingly indifferent to the relationship.

To outsiders, it appeared that he didn't care much about the relationship. But now, he could no longer hide his emotions. His anxiety, heartache, and panic all revealed how much he cared. Sadie followed the doctors closely, repeatedly urging, "You must save her; she can't have anything happen to her."

"Don't worry, we'll do our best," one of the doctors reassured her.

Sadie waited anxiously outside the ward, her thoughts consumed by worry and self-reproach.

Meanwhile, Andrew tried calling Micah, but there was no answer. He figured Micah might be angry.

With Annika's life hanging by a thread, Andrew couldn't think about anything else and put his phone away to wait outside the ward.

Back at Half Mountain Villa, chaos reigned as Olivia summoned Gabriella as quickly as possible.

Upon hearing about the situation, Gabriella fumed, "I told him he should rest and avoid stress, and stay still. It's only been a few days, and now he's having another episode?"

"Dr. Perez, please don't be angry. Come and take a look at Mr. Clemens first," Olivia urged anxiously.

"If it weren't for the money, I wouldn't bother. With such an uncooperative patient, even Jesus would have a hard time saving him," Gabriella grumbled as she hurried inside to examine and treat Micah. Outside, Silas paced frantically, questioning Dahlia about what happened.

Dahlia didn't dare mention that it was because of Sadie. She could only say that Micah received a call, got agitated, and collapsed. For specific details, they would have to wait until Micah woke up to explain. Silas immediately knew it had something to do with Sadie, his face turning livid with anger.

But in front of outsiders, he couldn't say much. He just instructed everyone to keep quiet and not disturb Gabriella's treatment.

He had now decided that for Micah's safety, he needed to have a serious talk with Sadie.

At this moment, Sadie had no idea about Micah's condition. She was anxiously waiting at the hospital, just hoping that Annika would be okay.

At midnight, the doctor finally came out of the emergency room, took off his mask, and said, "The patient is out of danger. Fortunately, the bullet didn't hit the heart, so there's no life-threatening risk!"
