Chapter 201
“Get in the car. Let’s get back to Greyport as soon as possible!”
Joanna looked at her watch. It was already past four in the afternoon!
If there were no traffic, it would probably be past six o’clock when they returned to Porash.
She had not returned home for two days. She had to go home tonight.
“Wait. I need to go to the bathroom!”
“Okay!”
“I’ll go with you!”
With that. Joanna and Cora walked to the bathroom.
Cora was faster. After going to the toilet, she was the first to come out.
Joanna had been thinking about something, so she was slower!
She was done with the toilet and was ready to go out!
Unexpectedly, something happened as soon as she opened the toilet door!
A man wearing a cap and a mask stood outside the toilet!
Before Joanna could react, the man in the cap held a dagger and stabbed it into her chest.
Joanna was shocked. She quickly raised the bag in her hand to block!
Splash!
The foot–long dagger pierced through the crocodile skin leather bag. It was obvious how much strength he had used.
If this blade pierced her heart, she would definitely die from it.
“Ah!
“Help!”
Seeing that he did not stab Joanna, the man suddenly pulled out his dagger and stabbed her again!
This time, Joanna had time to react. She suddenly reached out and grabbed the man’s wrist!
The blade was sawing before their eyes!
“Help! Someone help!” Joanna shouted in fear!
After all, she was a woman and did not have enough strength!
The man in the cap broke free from Joanna’s hand and stabbed her a few more times.
Although Joanna had learned female self–defense, the cramped space was insufficient for her to use them.
Especially since the other party was holding a murder weapon.
Joanna’s arm was cut while they entangled. Blood instantly seeped through her shirt.
Chapter 201
Joanna raised the bag and threw it at the man frantically!
“Ah!”
The man panicked when he failed to hit a vital spot after stabbing a few times!
Cora heard the screams from outside and rushed in to take a look!
“Miss Haynes, what’s wrong?”
Cora was also shocked when she entered. She quickly picked up the mop beside her and hit the man’s head hard.
She shouted, “Michael. Nicholas, come here quickly!”
The man in the cap was struck on the head. His vision turned black, and he almost fainted!
Seeing the situation, Joanna turned around, grabbed the trash can in the toilet, and slammed it on the killer’s head.
“Somebody! Anyone! Help!”
The killer had a trash can on his head and couldn’t see where he was going. The dagger in his hand also fell to the ground!
When Michael and Nicholas heard the exclamation, they ignored that it happened in the female toilet and ran in aggressively.
“What people?”
This is an killer. He wants to kill me. Call the police!”
Joanna’s arm was cut, and blood kept flowing.
Without another word, Michael and Nicholas stepped forward and kicked the killer to the ground!
Nicholas pounced on him and kneed the back of his hand, pinning him down.
“Miss Haynes, how are you?” Cora dropped the mop in his hand and rushed forward to check on Joanna’s arm.
“Hurry up and call the police. Call the security guards here!”
“Oh, okay!”
The killer prostrated on the ground, no longer able to struggle!
“Who are you? Why do you want to kill me?”
“Miss Haynes, take him to the police station first!”
As Nicholas spoke, he twisted the killer’s arm and dragged him out of the bathroom!
The three of them waited anxiously for the security guards to arrive. The killer leaned weakly against the railing! He looked powerless to resist.
Seeing this, Nicholas let down his guard!
Unexpectedly, Nicholas had just let down his guard!
The killer suddenly broke free from his grip, flipped over, and jumped down from the railing on the second floor.
Splash!
The killer fell hard on the ground. Then, he got up and limped out of the door.

Chapter 201
“Go after him!”
What a pity!
By the time Nicholas ran down the stairs to give chase, the killer had already disappeared.
“Where is he? Where is he?”
Michael rushed over with a few security guards.
“I accidentally let him escape,” Nicholas said dejectedly.
Joanna was even more terrified!
Fortunately, she had reacted quickly just now. If she had reacted a little slower, the knife would not have cut her arm, but it would have stabbed into her heart!
She never thought that she would encounter a killer here!
“Where is he?”
“He got away!”
Minutes later…
The police rushed over, and Joanna gave her statements!
Joanna thought back carefully. This person was probably the same person as the man who bumped into her in a car a few days ago!
A few days ago, Bruce chased her when a car hit her on the street.
Obviously, these two incidents were not a coincidence!
“Ms. Haynes, do you know anyone holding a grudge against you?”
When Joanna heard this, she frowned and thought hard!
Her enemies were probably only Ingrid and Bruce!.
But Bruce would definitely not hire someone to kill her!
Among the remaining people, only Ingrid was the greatest suspect.
However, these were only suspicions. After all, there was no concrete evidence!
“Alright! The statement has been recorded. If there’s any news, the police will inform you anytime!”
“Okay, thank you!”
The few of them left the police station!
Cora said worriedly, “Miss Haynes, let’s go to the hospital to bandage your arm!”
Joanna shook her head. “No need. I’m worried that an accident will happen. Let’s go back to Greyport first!”
After all, she was unfamiliar with Greene Town. If she encountered another killer, she would not be so lucky!
“Okay!”
Cora went to the pharmacy and bought bandages and tape. She also bought iodine to disinfect Joanna’s wound.
12:42 Sat, 8 Ju
Chapter 201
After bandaging the wound, they quickly drove to Greyport.
They arrived at Greyport after a long drive.
It was already past eight in the evening.
“Miss Haynes, we’re at your house!” Nicholas got out of the car and opened the door.
“Alright!” Joanna got out of the car in frustration.
Cora looked serious. “Miss Haynes, call me if anything happens!”
“Okay!”
“Why don’t I send you upstairs?”
“No need!”
The place where Joanna lived was considered a relatively high–end district in Greyport! Killers probably couldn’t enter.
“Be careful!”
“Yes, you too!”
Joanna dragged her exhausted body and walked home!
She had just reached the elevator door and was about to enter.
Suddenly, a huge black shadow completely enveloped her!
“Ah!” Joanna screamed reflexively, thinking that it was another killer!
“It’s me!” Bruce quickly explained when he saw how frightened she was.
Joanna turned around and realized that it was Bruce!
Her heart was still pounding in panic. “Bruce, you almost scared me to death!”
Bruce did not know she had just met a killer and almost lost her life!
He thought she did not want to see him because she was so agitated. So, his expression changed. “Where did you go?”
Joanna took a deep breath and replied coldly, “It has nothing to do with you!”
When Bruce heard this, he was so angry that he was about to explode. “Joanna, you could really piss me off!”
He was already so tolerant and accommodating to her, but she was getting more and more arrogant!
He had lived for almost 30 years, but this was the first time he had been so humble to others..
Joanna was still in shock. The appearance of Bruce made her even more terrified and anxious. “Bruce, I’m exhausted now. I don’t want to quarrel with you!”
“I beg you to let me go. Let me go back to rest!”
When Bruce heard this, he stomped his feet in anger. He suddenly grabbed her arm and pulled her into his arms.
However, he accidentally caught her wound.
“Ah!” Joanna screamed in pain and broke out in a cold sweat.
Chapter 201
Bruce was also shocked when he heard that. He quickly lowered his head to check. “What’s wrong?”
Joanna’s eyebrows twitched in pain. She subconsciously pressed on the wound.
Bruce looked down! Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
Suddenly, he was so shocked that he froze!
Her arm was wrapped in thick gauze. Even with such thick gauze, there was still blood on the outside!
Her clothes were covered in blood, and she was in a pathetic state.
“What’s wrong with you? Why are you injured again?”
“I’m fine!”
“You’re bleeding so much, and you still say you’re fine? Don’t you know how to take care of yourself?”
Joanna took a deep breath. “I told you. I’m fine!”
“Go with me to the hospital!”
“I’m not going!” Joanna struggled with all her might.
If she went to the hospital, the paranoid Bruce would restrict her freedom again.
“You have to go even if you don’t want to! If you don’t take your body seriously, you’ll die soon!”
“Bruce, can you not force me? You’re so annoying!”
When Bruce heard this, his pupils constricted, and his hands subconsciously loosened their grip.
Did she really hate him that much?
Joanna broke free and turned around to escape.
