Chapter 906: If Zoey Sanders Wakes Up, Everything Is Over
Liam Cloud's dark eyes swept over calmly, composed and steady, a cold, thin smile crossed his lips as he raised the gun and shot at the gasoline tank. The explosion sounded with a roar, and flames soared into the sky.
The three people still didn't know what was happening; one was immediately killed by the explosion, while the other two were engulfed by the flames, falling to the ground in agony.
Liam Cloud squinted his dark eyes, watching without blinking as he finished everything, letting out a cruel cold laugh before casually tossing the gun to Wesley Ruiz, "Clean it up."
Wesley, "Yes."
Liam Cloud turned around, passing by the rushing policemen, who immediately asked when they saw the raging fire, "What happened?"
Wesley had already put the gun away and laughed, "They didn't want to live anymore, so they set themselves on fire."
Didn't want to live anymore, set themselves on fire? Who would believe that!
Liam Cloud was already ignoring the events here; Wesley would handle it. He got into the car and left, carrying a chill with him amidst the flames.
Zoey Sanders' head was severely injured, and while she was being sent to the hospital's emergency room, Emma Winton was just coming out. She had a mild concussion, a fractured arm, and her face was cut by shattered windshield glass, causing the bloody scene at that time.
Actually, her injuries weren't as serious as they seemed.
The doctor said she wasn't in any danger and would wake up soon.
Owen Winton and Chloe Woods thanked the doctor repeatedly, and Christopher Lewis and Alitzel Williams also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Make way, make way." Joseph Sanders' voice was urgent and heavy.
Hope Williams was startled when she saw Zoey Sanders lying on the moving hospital bed. Zoey quickly went into the emergency room, and Hope looked at Joseph incredulously.
"Is that Zoey?"
If not for seeing the clear facial contours, Hope almost couldn't recognize her.
Joseph Sanders punched the wall in frustration, gritting his teeth and nodding forcefully.
"We just rescued her from the traffickers; any later and..." Joseph Sanders still felt post-traumatic fear, almost unable to think further.
Hope Williams' eyes widened, traffickers!
Since the car accident, Hope had been dealing with matters here, so she wasn't clear about what happened with Zoey Sanders. How could she have ended up in the hands of traffickers?
She frowned tightly, the more she thought, the more wrong it seemed, feeling as if everything resembled a conspiracy.
And at this moment, no one was paying attention to Chloe Woods at the back with a terrified expression. She covered her mouth, unable to believe Zoey Sanders was actually rescued.
How could it be?
Their plan to send Zoey out was foolproof; how could she be found so quickly?
Chloe Woods was anxious, thinking if Zoey woke up, their entire plan would be exposed.
A voice in her mind told her, it was over.
She could only pray now that Zoey Sanders would never wake up in her life.
Owen Winton noticed Chloe Woods' unusual expression, lightly furrowing his brow, "Chloe?"
"Ah?" A startled Chloe Woods stammered, "Uncle, wha... what's wrong?"
"What's wrong with you?"
Chloe Woods quickly shook her head, "Nothing, Uncle, I'll go take care of Emma."
Chloe Woods hurriedly left, not daring to meet anyone's eyes.
Owen Winton frowned. Emma had already been sent to the ward, so he naturally had no reason to stay here. He headed directly to Emma's room.
Hope Williams noticed Chloe Woods leaving quickly, her eyebrows slightly furrowing.
Chloe Woods went to Emma's room, closed the door, and paced around the room in panic, talking to herself, "What to do, what to do, Zoey was rescued, if she wakes up, we're doomed..."
"What are you saying?" Owen Winton's voice sounded at the door.
Chloe Woods screamed in panic, "Un... Uncle..."
Owen Winton walked in, frowning, closed the door, and asked solemnly, "Does this matter with the Sanders girl have anything to do with you?"
"No... no, how could her kidnapping be related to us."
Chloe Woods' voice trembled, her panicked eyes not daring to meet Owen Winton's serious gaze.
"How do you know she was kidnapped? No one mentioned that just now." Owen Winton realized something, his voice deepening.
Chloe Woods bit her lip, "..."
Owen Winton continued questioning, "Tell me, why did Emma suddenly rush out to save Wyatt Lewis? How could it all be so coincidental?"
He was somewhat suspicious; he knew his daughter best. She wasn't someone who meddled in others' affairs or was kind enough to risk her life to save someone.
Saving Wyatt Lewis, she merely wanted to use the favor of saving his life to demand the marriage arrangement.
But it seemed too coincidental.
"Wasn't it all arranged by you?" Owen Winton's stern eyes squinted.
Chloe Woods bit her lip. With Emma not yet awake, she was genuinely uncertain about what to do, so she could only nod in admission. Owen Winton was Emma's father; he knew, and it wouldn't harm them.
"Yes, yes, it was Emma..."
"Nonsense!" Owen Winton reprimanded harshly.
