She Made a Comeback as a Renowned Doctor

The light shone over, dazzling through his silver hair.

Zoey Sanders gently blinked her eyes, and many years later, when Zoey remembered this scene, it still had the power to move her endlessly.

There really can be someone who comes with light, like a hero, rescuing her from the abyss.

Seeing the yellow-haired man whose shoulder was pierced by a bullet and fell straight down, the faces of the others turned pale with fear. Looking at the silver-haired man exuding a murderous aura, they couldn't help but have their legs go weak, retreating continuously.

"What are you waiting for? Run," the big brother shouted, snapping the other two out of it, making them flee desperately.

He had a gun in his hand while they were unarmed; it was impossible for them to win against him. Their only choice to save their lives was to run.

"Chase them," Liam Cloud said calmly, and the subordinates behind him immediately chased after them.

After dealing with those people, Liam Cloud happened to lower his head.

His gaze met Zoey Sanders lying on the ground.

His pupils trembled slightly, his dark eyes fixed on her for a long while, unable to help furrowing his brows.

Soon, the subordinates behind him came forward as well, their faces freezing upon seeing Zoey on the ground.

The girl's face was covered in blood, one side was swollen high, her eyes were red, hair messily stuck to her face, the only clean area on her face looked extremely pale under the light in this desolate suburb at midnight, as if they encountered a ghost.

The blood on her face partly belonged to the yellow-haired man, partly to herself.

Liam Cloud crouched down and briefly examined her injuries, finding most of the wounds on her head, quite serious ones.

Liam Cloud couldn't help but furrow his brows.

Touching her face with his fingers, he could feel her skin burning, she was feverish.

Severely injured, suffering significant blood loss and a fever, she would be lucky to survive with half a life.

The clever subordinate handed Liam Cloud bandaging tools.

These mercenaries often executed missions, getting injured was inevitable, so they always carried bandaging tools with them.

Zoey's tears finally fell in large drops; she didn't cry when the kidnappers held her hostage, knowing crying was useless, but now all she wanted was to cry, as tears were her only outlet for emotions.

Liam Cloud remained indifferent, seemingly unconcerned, offering no comfort, seemingly uninterested in tending to a little girl's emotional problems.

Yet he truly was a bit surprised.

Injured so badly, along with a high fever, she endured this long, managed to escape on her own, and only now allowed herself to cry; for a girl who grew up sheltered, it was truly remarkable.

"Am I going to die?" Zoey asked weakly.

"Yes."

With such serious injuries, even the doctor would issue a critical condition notice upon seeing her.

"But if you save the strength from crying, you might die a little slower."

Liam Cloud indeed wasn't a smooth talker.

If Zoey had the strength, she might have questioned if this person could speak properly.

But she felt her head wasn't her own, energy continuously drained; to keep speaking, she stubbornly held on, having no strength to care about anything anymore.

Joseph Sanders soon arrived with people, bringing along a doctor.

Seeing Zoey nearly dying, Joseph's tall frame trembled slightly, his heart clenched tightly.

"Zoey,"

Zoey laboriously lifted her eyelids, glanced at Joseph disdainfully, then directly closed her eyes.

As it is, since she hadn't gotten away from danger, she didn't want to see this brother; her head already had an entry wound and an exit wound, she didn't want the blood vessels bursting from anger.

The doctor quickly set up a stretcher and moved Zoey onto it; as they were about to leave, Zoey grabbed Liam Cloud's coat.

Being so close to death, there was a question she stubbornly wanted to ask:

Might as well die happily.

"You dislike me, so why did you come to save me? Or do you have a little bit of liking..."

Liam Cloud glanced at her nonchalantly.

Why save her?

Since part of it had to do with him, saving her settled the score, nothing owed.

But Liam didn't want to explain it all.

Before the question finished, Liam Cloud replied, "Lack of money."

Zoey's voice was very faint, "What?"

"Your brother gave me a million."

Zoey insisted weakly, "You saved me... just for a million?"

"Otherwise? Don't forget what I do; as long as the commission is right, I handle anything from murder to arson."

Zoey's eyes dimmed; he saved her only as a million-dollar transaction.

Zoey gave a bitter smile.

She was nearing death, couldn't he at least lie and let her die happily?

Forget it.

This is it.

If she survives, she'll give him a few million more.

A life like Zoey Sanders isn't worth just a million.

Zoey finally exhausted her strength, fainted away.

Joseph gave Liam Cloud a complex glance, but right now, he didn't want to argue with him. Zoey's life mattered more.

Joseph took Zoey away.

Wesley Ruiz stepped up, "Big Boss, those people hid inside the house, and there's gasoline cans inside."

This means if they dared approach, they would ignite the gasoline cans, which would explode on encountering fire, taking everyone down together.

Liam Cloud raised an eyebrow slightly, stepping towards the house, his men surrounded outside, while those inside offered their final resistance.

Uncertain if these people had any use, Liam's subordinates dared not handle them hastily.

"Don't come in, or we'll all go down together," the man shouted, holding up a lighter above a full barrel of gasoline cans.
