Chapter 26 Assassination
Chapter 26 Assassination
After chatting for a while, looking at his granddaughter who had been lowering her head and not daring
to look at Yank Wood, an idea suddenly came to his mind. He looked at Yank Wood and asked, "Yank,
are you busy today?"
Yank Wood was stunned for a moment and shook his head subconsciously. He had no work to do. He
had nothing to do except for sending meals and chauffeuring Lucy Long to and from the office. He was
really not busy.
"Then can you take your sister out to have fun? I can bear it all day long, but she is a young lady, and it
is not easy to stay. What do you think?" Fred Wood did not dare order in a commanding tone, and he
said in a somewhat pleading tone.
Yara Wood's blush, which had faded away, suddenly appeared again. She said coquettishly, "Grandpa,
what are you talking about? I'm fine. I'm willing to stay at home with you."
Although she said so, she did want to go out with Yank Wood, but she was afraid that Yank Wood
would think that she was not reserved at all.
Yank Wood didn't refuse, but simply nodded and said, "Okay, you can buy some tonics for grandpa.
Besides, grandpa is right. You can't study at home all the time."
Hearing Yank Wood agree, Yara Wood was even shyer, but she was very happy in her heart. She
thought that Yank Wood still had a good impression of her. Otherwise, how could he promise to go out
with her?
Yes, it must be so.
However, she didn't know that Yank Wood felt like an elder brother to his sister. He didn't have any
feelings for her at all. The reason why he agreed was that Yank Wood thought what Fred Wood said
was right and couldn't let the young Yara Wood stay at home all day.
At that time, she might get autism!
After preparing for a while, they left the villa. Eric had no objection, nor did he propose to send
someone to protect them. Mr. Wood was protecting Yara Wood, so there was nothing to worry about.
As soon as they walked out of the community, Yank Wood frowned a little. Usually, he was used to Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
riding his motorcycle, but now it was a little inconvenient to have Yara Wood.
He thought about it and decided to find an excuse to buy a car. This was not a good idea!
"Let's take a taxi!" Yank Wood suggested.
Yara Wood's eyes were full of admiration for Yank Wood, and she had no objection at all. She
immediately nodded and agreed.
However, all of a sudden, a van without a license plate rushed toward them. Yank Wood was very alert
to danger. He immediately reacted and held Yara Wood in his arms and immediately stepped aside.
The van had stopped in advance before it rushed over. Yank Wood thought that his enemy had sent
someone to kill him, but the people in the van did not take the next step. It turned around and drove
away again.
There was a flash of killing intent in Yank Wood's eyes. It was better not to let him know who it was, or
he would never let go of this person. Only then did he realize that Yara Wood had not spoken for a long
time. She was so weak that she was frightened.
Looking back, she found that Yara Wood's face was pale and her hands and feet were cold.
"Yara, how are you? Don't scare me." Seeing this situation, Yank Wood hurriedly said.
Yara Wood forced a smile and shook her head. "Mr. Wood, I'm fine..."
As soon as she finished speaking, she fainted.
Yank Wood held her in his arms and took a taxi to the hospital like crazy. His eyes were full of anger. If
he found out who it was, he would definitely kill him. How dare he assassinate the people around him?
After arriving at the hospital, Yank Wood quickly found the doctor and said, "Doctor, hurry up and see
my sister."
"How did you take care of your sister?" Seeing Yara Wood's situation, the doctor glared at Yank Wood
and then called someone to take her to the emergency room.
Yank Wood paced back and forth in front of the emergency room, hoping that Yara Wood would be
safe and sound.
After a while, the emergency room door opened. Yank Wood quickly went forward and asked anxiously,
"Doctor, is my sister all right?"
The doctor breathed a sigh of relief and said with relief, "It's okay. The patient is just frightened and will
be fine after a rest. You can't let her be frightened any more recently, or she will leave a shadow."
Yank Wood nodded solemnly. He would not allow what happened today to happen again.
"She has been transferred to the single ward and stayed in the hospital for two or three days. With
some drugs I prescribed, it will help her calm down."
"Thank you, doctor!"
After sending the doctor away, Yank Wood came to his sister's ward. Looking at the weak Yara Wood
on the hospital bed, his heart was a little touched, but he quickly thought of what kind of force the
person who was going to assassinate would be.
The key was how the other party knew that he came to this community, and how did he know that he
happened to go out with Yara Wood?
Thinking of this, Yank Wood couldn't help clenching his fists. He was too tired to move alone. He was
wondering if he should transfer a few more people from the House family so that he could relax.
Just when he was upset, he heard Zephyr White shaking his head with a playful look on his face.
"Unfortunately, she is alive. It's better not to die. Such a woman is blind to follow you."
Yank Wood's face turned cold, but he thought of something. Suddenly, the corners of his mouth curled
slightly and he looked at Zephyr White proudly. "Hey, isn't this Mr. White? Even your face is injured, you
are still so handsome. I really admire you. You are more than enough to be a gigolo."
Zephyr White's face turned livid.
He was about to attack Yank Wood.
All of a sudden, a delicate voice sounded, with a bone-chilling chill.
"Zephyr White, what do you want to do by raising your fist?" Lucy Long asked Zephyr White with a cold
face, "Didn't you come to apologize to Yank Wood? What do you mean?"
Seeing this scene, Yank Wood suddenly pretended to have a stomachache and shouted with a painful
face, "Honey, you're finally here. Just now, Zephyr White forced me to divorce you, but I didn't agree.
He, he beat me."
Zephyr White was completely stunned. How could he have thought that Yank Wood could do this?
"Leave now, or I'll tell Uncle White about this and see how he will react." Hearing this, Lucy Long's face
became even gloomier. She pointed at the door and said.
Seeing this, Zephyr White knew that he had been set up by Yank Wood. The more he explained, the
darker his words became. He glared at Yank Wood fiercely and said, "Yank Wood, you are good. Let's
wait and see. I hope you won't forget what happened today."
After that, he left angrily.
After he left, Lucy Long's cold eyes softened a little. She looked at Yank Wood and asked, "Who is this
woman? Why are you in a hospital with her?"
Yank Wood was stunned and then teased, "Lucy, are you jealous?"
Lucy Long was a little flustered, as if she had been poked, but she still put on a cold face. "Don't be
sentimental, but you are now the son-in-law of the Long family. Even if you can't help it, you can't let
me see it, what should the Long family explain if it spread out?"
Yank Wood shook his head and smiled bitterly. "Is he so unbearable in Lucy Long's eyes?"
"Well, I know. Why did you and Zephyr White come to the hospital?" Yank Wood didn't want to explain
anything. Thinking of the two coming in one after the other, he couldn't help but be curious.
"Zephyr White found me and said that he wanted to apologize to you face to face. I called you but you
didn't answer my phone. After searching for a while, I learned that you came to the hospital, but I was a
little lost just now." Lucy Long explained.
Hearing this, Yank Wood's eyes suddenly became a little cold. The mastermind behind the
assassination just now was probably Zephyr White.
"The contract has been signed today. Mike said that you left a deep impression on him. Thank you for
your help this time." Although Lucy Long was a little angry, she did not forget to thank Yank Wood,
because today, Mike said it was Yank Wood who persuaded him to continue signing the contract.
Yank Wood immediately grabbed her little hand and said with deep affection, "We're a couple. You
don't have to thank me. I'll protect you from now on. I promise you won't be hurt by anyone at all."
The heat from the big hand made Lucy Long's heart tremble, and there was a trace of panic in her
beautiful eyes.
But then she pulled back her hand with a straight face and said coldly, "It's useless for me like that."
Then she walked out of the ward in high heels.
