But she was wrong.

"Ms. Natalie." A Rolls-Royce Phantom soon arrived.

Silas winded down the window and asked. "How come you're alone? Where's Mr. Shane?"

Natalia paused for a moment before answering his question, "Mr. Shane ran after a snatch thief."

"What?" Silas raised his voice.

While she was taking out a phone to call the police, she urged Silas to start driving. "Keep going. Mr. Shane will be in danger if the thief has other members!"

Silas' expression changed and started driving in their direction.

A few minutes later, they found Shane.

He was fighting with a few men in a dark alley, and one of the men was the person who stole her handbag.

Natalie balled her hands into fists. "I knew it. I knew he's not alone. Come on, we have to go and help."

Though Shane was fighting against a group of men alone, he seemed to be doing a good job.

Yet, tackling a large group of men for an extended period could exhaust his energy, and he would be in deep trouble by then.

Natalie immediately got down from the car and was ready to join the fight.

Silas, too, stepped out of the car. He went up and stopped her. "I'll go. You stay here and wait."

Silas rubbed his fists and joined Shane in the fight.

With Silas' help, Shane managed to take down all the men.

Natalie heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing the group of rogues lying on the ground. She smiled and ran toward him. "Are you okay?"

Shane was pleased to know that she actually cared for him. "Yes. Here you go."

He handed the handbag over to her. "Let me know if anything has gone missing.

Natalie opened the bag and checked thoroughly. "Everything is still in the bag. Thank God."

"That's great." Shane nodded.

All of a sudden, one of the men rolled down his sock and pulled out a dagger. He bounced up from the ground and stab in Shane's direction.

Shane did not know what was going on behind him.

Silas noticed the man, but he was too far away to stop him. He could only shout, "Be careful!"

"What?" A sudden frown warped Shane's face, but before he could react, Natalie had wrapped her hands around his waist, shoved him aside, and took his place.

Pfft!

The dagger pierced right into Natalie's shoulder.

Shane instantly raised his leg and kicked the assailant, who then hit the wall behind and fainted on the spot.

Instead of checking on the assailant, Shane immediately held Natalie tightly in his arms. "How are you feeling?"

The color drained out of her face, and she broke out in a sweat. "My shoulder hurts."

Shoulder?

Shane touched her shoulder, and it was all wet. He soon noticed his hand was covered in blood!

Silas went up and beat them up again before saying, "Ms. Smith is injured."

Shane carried her in his arms and ordered Silas, "You stay here and wait for the police. I'll bring her to the hospital."

"All right." Silas nodded.

Shane then got into the car with Natalie and drove toward the hospital.

Once they arrived at the hospital, Shane went straight to Jackson.

Jackson was on the night shift, and he had just completed a medical procedure. Just when he was about to take a nap, someone kicked down his office door. The bang was so loud that he immediately jumped up from his seat. "What happened?"

With a sullen look, Shane approached Jackson and placed Natalie on his desk. "Do what you need to do right now."

"What's wrong with her?" Jackson looked at the unconscious woman and asked in a serious voice.

"Someone stabbed her with a dagger," Shane answered briefly. He then pulled down the corner of her dress and revealing the wound on her shoulder.

Jackson took a deep breath, put on a pair of gloves, and started cleaning the wound.
