Chapter: 767
Their resistance partly falls on me."
Joanna shook her head. "Kason, your intentions were noble. It's the Inferno Alliance who are monsters."
Seeing the chaotic scene outside, she felt sickened. The cruelty of the Inferno Alliance knew no bounds. Kason was right. They needed to be wiped out to prevent further harm.
Bryson also remarked, “That's correct, it has nothing to do with Kason."
Sean's expression grew even darker.
Why was it being implied that this was his responsibility?
Norah sighed deeply. “Everyone is upset about what happened. I'm going downstairs to check on Dream's situation."
Upon seeing the first-floor stage, memories flooded back of Zeke and the others performing there earlier. She wondered anxiously if they had found safety, perhaps hiding backstage.
Her assumption was shattered when she noticed Phoebe lying on the couch, her breathing barely discernible.
"Has an ambulance been called? When did she get injured?"
Rodger and Merlin displayed intense anxiety, causing their eyes to redden, while Zeke stood beside them, equally frantic with worry.
“It's been ages since they called for the doctor, but there's still no sign of them."
Phoebe sustained a gunshot wound to her stomach, prompting Merlin to apply a white towel to the injury, now mostly soaked in blood.
She appeared pale from significant blood loss and struggled to breathe.
Sensing someone nearby, Phoebe managed to open her eyes and offer a faint smile.
Norah retrieved a fresh bottle of Rejuvenation Powder and sprinkled it over the wound upon removing the towel, which helped slow the bleeding. '
"We were performing on stage when chaos erupted, and shots rang out randomly. As we rushed backstage to seek cover, Phoebe was struck by a stray bullet in her stomach, causing substantial bleeding.”
As Zeke had explained, the bullet had not penetrated too deeply; a slightly stronger impact could have proved fatal for Phoebe due to excessive bleeding.
"I've managed to stop the bleeding. Once the doctor arrives, they can transport her to the hospital to extract the bullet."
The surgical procedure was well within the capabilities of hospital doctors, and after halting the bleeding, the operation should pose no significant challenge. She held complete confidence in the surgical proficiency of the hospital's staff.
By the time they finished giving their statements at the police station, it was already early morning.
As they prepared to part ways, they reflected on their unfortunate day.
Joanna expressed, “ALL I wanted was to unwind and enjoy myself, and then this happens-unbelievable."
Susanna grumbled, “Exactly, my bodyguards are all dead; it's so frustrating and heartbreaking.”
