Chapter 613 Kill the Baby in Her Womb
Chloe shook the man beside her. "It's the masked woman!"
Joseph had already opened his eyes. He said calmly, "Don't panic."
Unbeknownst to Chloe, their bodyguards were in a car right behind them. Upon realizing the dangerous situation, they immediately got out and engaged in a fierce fight with the attackers from Duskfall.
Vanya crossed her arms, a sneer forming on her face. She then signaled to another group of people, effectively tripling the size of her group. Despite the fact that Joseph's bodyguards were all highly trained elite soldiers, they found themselves overwhelmed by the sheer number of adversaries.
Joseph's eyebrows furrowed, and he decisively moved to the driver seat. "Buckle up."
"Okay."
The car sped down the road, with Vanya in relentless pursuit. Lucas, who had just come out of the cake shop, was momentarily stunned. He soon snapped back to reality and quickly contacted Vince for support.
To shake Vanya off, Joseph skillfully maneuvered onto a winding mountain road. Chloe tightened her grip on the seat belt. Her palms were sweaty, and her heart raced.
Seeing that they were about to be left behind, Vanya cursed her driver and leaned out of the van, aiming darts at Joseph's car, attempting to puncture the tires. Their target was not Joseph but Chloe. Vanya wanted to eliminate Chloe so that there would be no obstacles to Xavia becoming Joseph's wife. As for Xavia's baby... Joseph's attitude toward her had changed significantly. If necessary, they could always have another child in the future.
Previously, they had spared Choe because they wanted the baby growing in her womb. But now that the child could potentially become a game-changer, Vanya was determined to prevent its birth. She was determined to deny them the chance for an amniocentesis so that Joseph would never know that he was the father.
Fortunately, Joseph's car had been modified, and the darts could not penetrate the tires.
Chloe's heart pounded with fear as a sudden cliff ahead took her by surprise. "What do we do?!" she yelled, seeking guidance from Joseph.
Joseph's face hardened into an icy mask as he swiftly assessed the situation. Realizing that there was no escape, he made a bold and daring choice. With a sharp turn of the steering wheel, he pushed the accelerator to the limit and headed straight for Vanya’s van.
Vanya's eyelids twitched when she realized his intention. Startled, she quickly retreated back into the van. She wanted Chloe dead, not herself!
"Turn around!" she shouted.
"Van, the road is too narrow to turn around—"
"You useless piece of shit!" Vanya grabbed the steering wheel, attempting to take control.
However, it quickly became apparent that the driver's assessment was accurate. Joseph's car was rapidly approaching, barreling toward them, giving them no opportunity to change course. The narrow road offered no margin for error, and the slightest misjudgment could result in a devastating collision.
Not willing to take the risk, Vanya played a cunning move. She calculated the exact moment when the oncoming car would collide and made a swift decision. She jumped out of the vehicle and ran
toward a small hillside. The driver was not as fortunate. Without Vanya to guide him, he panicked and quickly hit the brakes, but it was too late.
With a loud crash, the van was sent flying, tumbling down the cliff. In its descent, the vehicle collided with rocks before culminating in a fiery explosion.
In the final second, Joseph managed to slam on the brakes, causing the car’s tires to screech against the road in a jarring cacophony. However, half of the car's front end remained suspended over the edge, posing a perilous situation. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
The windshield had shattered, and shards of glass had cut open Joseph's hands, staining the steering wheel with his blood. Though he maintained a composed demeanor, every muscle in his body was pulled taut and there was a layer of sweat on his forehead.
He dared not make any sudden movements and turned to Chloe. "You get out first."
"No, the car will lose balance if I get out." Chloe remained still, forcing herself to stay calm and quickly engaging her mind to analyze the most advantageous course of action in their current situation.
