Please Let Me Go novel Chapter 54

She gritted her teeth and didn't cry out for pain!

"Adelaide!”

Antonio held her in his arms, his eyes were full of shock and fear! He cover Adelaide’s head with hands.

At that moment, a lead police siren sounded outside the door.

"Leas, the cops are coming!"

The lead clapped on his forehead again, "Son of bitch, let’s go!"

The lead fled with his people in panic!

Hearing gunshots inside and seeing the police car coming, the staff did not know what happened. He stumbled back to the management room and opened the door.

Adelaide was lying in the arms of Antonio. His hands were covered with blood, dripping on the white petals. He shivered, without knowing what to do!

"Adelaide, you can't sleep, don’t close your eyes!"

Antonio's tears dropped on her face. The burning feeling made her open her eyes. In addition to a sweat on the forehead, her face was pale.

She coughed lightly. She was in pain, but she still forced a smile, "Antonio, you are crying. It must be an illusion! Are you all right?"

Antonio's hand did not dare to move at all holding the bleeding wound. He did not expect the pregnant Adelaide would block the bullet for him.

"No, no, don’t close your eyes!

His voice trembled, and he could not even say a complete word. He was afraid, watching her close her eyes again. He feared that this woman would not wake up again.

"Call the doctor!” He glanced back at the door. The dazed staff pulled out his cell phone in a panic.

The police quickly got off the car and pulled up the cordon. Some armed special police pursued the direction where the gangsters fled, while the rest stayed, so as not to cause panic among the villagers and tourists.

A policeman took out his mobile phone and dialed the emergency number again. With his explanation, the hospital paid immediate attention and sent doctors and nurses. Ambulances sounded their sirens and they stepped over red lights and crowded vehicles and finally arrived at the village ten minutes later.

The three doctors raised the stretcher and trotted to the side of Antonio. He refused to lose his hand holding Adelaide, as if she would disappear.

"Sir, we understand your mood, but she lost so much blood, if not treated well, she will die!" The doctor stooped to pull Antonio away.

Antonio then let the nurse carefully lift Adelaide onto the stretcher.

Lying on stretcher, Adelaide closed her eyes and had to response when Antonio called her.
