Chapter 1238: Please Don’t Abandon Me
Thomas Grant felt that the final decision should be left to Kyle Keaton.After all, he was the ultimate commander of their Keaton Family’s Vanguard War General.
Besides, he thought, it was unlikely that Kyle Keaton would agree.
After all, in front of Mrs. Keaton, he had always been a bit petty and prone to jealousy.
However, he was worried that if Lord Keaton didn’t agree with Mrs. Keaton’s approach, the two would surely have a conflict.
It wouldn’t matter if they had a quarrel at home, but if it happened in public, that would be troublesome.
Fortunately, what Thomas Grant was worried about didn’t happen.
Kyle Keaton’s response was, "Let’s do as July said."
Because just earlier, July Quinn had tickled his palm and acted cute with him.
She even hinted with her eyes: End this quickly, I want to go home.
The stuffiness that had been stuck in his chest was dissipated by July Quinn’s cute gaze.
Going home now, does it mean the bunny girl outfit should also be planned?
Maybe a nurse uniform could do as well.
Hmm, a certain man let his imagination run wild, eager to go.
And at that moment, Jennings was also carried away by Thomas Grant and the others.
As he left, he looked towards July Quinn.
He thought he might see something other than indifference in her eyes.
But he didn’t.
July Quinn didn’t even look at him, let alone show any other expression.
She was already busy going over to the person Jennings had shot, tearing a piece of her wedding dress to treat their wound.
Moreover, she took out a silver needle she always carried and performed anesthesia and hemostatic treatment.
"Before you get to the hospital, just don’t remove these two needles."
After instructing the members of the Keaton Family’s Vanguard War General to take the injured person to the hospital, she didn’t forget to reassure the wounded.
"It’s okay, it’s no big deal! As long as they remove the bullet at the hospital, it won’t affect your daily life after that."
She also reminded one of the Vanguard War General members: "Remember to give me his treatment and nutrition bills, and I’ll get the Marsden Family to reimburse them along with the compensation for mental distress."
This, in a way, calmed the injured person, relieving them from worrying about medical expenses.
July Quinn, doing all this, seemed like an angel with a halo, starkly different from the demon-like her when she shot Jennings earlier.
This made everyone unable to dislike her.
Especially Laura Quinn!
At the first moment after the crisis, she pushed through the crowd to embrace July Quinn, who had just comforted the injured.
"Baby..."
Laura Quinn cried hysterically.
Making July Quinn unsure if her actions earlier had frightened her.
"Sorry, Mom, I didn’t mean to scare you. But you should know, after everything I’ve been through all these years, my hands... aren’t clean."
Those last three words took almost all of July Quinn’s strength.
Indeed, over the years, she had traveled far and wide, living in a constant barrage of bullets and fire.
It was in such a life that she honed her shooting skills.
Shooting had long become a routine for her; she didn’t even think about it earlier.
Until she felt Laura Quinn’s trembling, she panicked.
Because she didn’t want her parents to see her as a demon who did nothing but evil, and she feared that her parents wouldn’t like her once they knew her true nature.
At that moment, only heaven knew how flustered and helpless she was.
Even when a gun was pointed at her head, she was never like this.
Perhaps it was this kind of helplessness that made her most humble words slip out unconsciously: "Mom, I can change, don’t leave me..."
