Chapter 116: She was saved
David screamed in panic. "Do not. Maria, don't do things out of evil."
Ella wanted to speak but her mouth was sealed so she could only hum.
"Let her go, Maria." David gently admonished Maria.
Maria smirked at David. "I caught her, so why should I release her? I am not an idiot." She said sarcastically.
"Put down your gun, you have a chance to survive." Officer Vic said in a calm voice.
"Without David's love, I'd be dead," Maria spoke as if she didn't care about life and death.
"I have told you so many times, I only see you as my sister. Why do you still not understand? Why are you still stubborn?" David clenched his fists and was angry but there was nothing he could do.
"What do I have to lose to Ella? Why do I have to see you two happy? If I don't have happiness..." Maria stopped talking and smiled wickedly.
David looked at her smile, and he suddenly had a bad premonition. "What do you want to do?"
"I told you, didn't I? I'll show you how ugly she is when she gets hit." Finishing her words, Maria's five fingers imprinted on Ella's cheekbones. Ella felt her face go numb. She staggered, almost falling to the ground.
"No," David shouted. His heart ached. David once said he would protect Ella but now, he can only stand there and watch. Because Maria threatened with a gun, that if he moved, she would shoot Ella.
Maria laughed maniacally at David. "David, how does it feel to see someone you love being beaten so painfully? Something that I can't have, Ella can never have."
David feels very helpless because he can't do anything even if he wants to fight back. All he can do is be gentle with Maria, hoping she can stop hitting Ella.
"Maria, we grew up together, our relationship is very good. You don't break it, okay? I still haven't forgotten our childhood memories. Stop your doings and I will still love you like my sister. I'll tell my mom, she'll forgive your mistakes, okay?" David said as he slowly walked over to Maria to take the gun in her hand.
Hearing his words, Maria was moved. She never forgets the sweet memories of her childhood with David. But that quickly disappears when she realizes David is cheating on her. Maria turned the gun on David, shouting. "Don't get too close, or I'll open fire."
David's feet stopped. Taking advantage of Maria's inattentiveness, Key crept up from behind her, restraining her by holding onto Maria's hand holding the gun. The situation is chaotic. Taking the opportunity, Officer Vic and several policemen walked over and tried to arrest Jack.
David ran to Ella and untied her. Ella heard a gunshot. She closed her eyes tightly. David uses his body to protect Ella. She is very afraid that someone will get hurt because of her.
When the surroundings fell silent, Ella opened her eyes and saw Jack lying on the ground, holding his bleeding leg. Officer Vic shot Jack in the leg so he couldn't resist. The gun in Maria's hand was thrown away. Ella breathed a sigh of relief because no one was hurt. Everyone was safe.
Two policemen handcuff Maria and Jack.
"You have been arrested for attempted murder. You don't have to say anything, but it could harm your defense if you don't answer when questioned. Anything you do and say can be brought up as evidence in court," Officer Vic said.
"No." Maria struggled. She went crazy, tried to fight back, and continued to punch and kick the police officer holding her. "You can't arrest me. I want to kill her. I can't let her be happy." Maria pointed at Ella with her red eyes. She is like a wild beast that has gone mad. She looked as if she was ready to eat people.
David approached Maria. "If you take my advice, you won't get caught."
Maria glared at David. "Why? Why don't you love me? Everything I do is for you, why do you still choose her?" Maria shouted. She was so mad that her eyes were red and round. Her blue veins began to emerge on her forehead.
David did not respond to Maria's words. This life, he owes her. Because of love, she becomes blind and defies everything.
"No. Let me go. I don't want to go to jail. I have to marry David." Maria continued to shout those words in a frenzied mood.
Meanwhile, Raymon had completely lost to David. But he was not willing to surrender. So he hacked the password of the finance department and stole a large amount of money.
David was shot and had a traffic accident but still did not die. Raymon wants David's company bankrupt, and David's career ruined. That's why he stole money and he's going abroad to settle down. Unfortunately, an employee saw Raymon doing something shady, so the employee immediately informed David.
As David and Ella stepped out of the abandoned house, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang. He answered the call. "What? I know." He hung up the phone and told Officer Vic. "Raymon stole money from my company and planned to flee abroad. Can you help me?"
"Okay, that's my duty. Let's go back to the wedding ceremony. Wish you happy." Officer Vic patted David on the shoulder and congratulated them.
"Thank," David said with a smile and greeted Officer Vic.
Officer Vic nodded and headed to the airport. Luckily, Raymon hasn't boarded the plane yet. The world around him came crashing down completely when the police arrived and surrounded him. But he didn't go to jail because he didn't do anything illegal. The other money was returned to David's company.
Key drove David and Ella to Villa Anthony, where their wedding ceremony took place. Ella is still panicking and he is comforting her.
"So, our wedding will still go on?" Ella asked while sitting in the back seat with David.
"Of course, I can't wait any longer. I can't wait to have you in my life." David said and took her hand.
"But my face and my skirt?"
"You're still beautiful in my eyes. And wedding dresses, don't worry, I've prepared five dresses for you to change into while our wedding takes place." David stroked Ella's hair.
She smiles sweetly. Her husband is such a caring man.
Key looked at them in the mirror, seeing the happy couple, he was also happy in his heart.
