Chapter 917
The Thompson brothers and Justin drew close and stared at the doctor in
anticipation.
“The bullet penetrated the patient's organ, and she lost a lot of blood. Her vitals
weren't promising before we got on the operating table.”
The doctor sighed helplessly and shook his head. “I'm sorry, Ms. Thompson. We
did everything we could...”
As a doctor, Bella knew what those cruel words meant.
The Thompsons hung their heads low. Declan removed his military
cap to mourn for Linny in silence.
It was an answer they had expected when they set foot into the
hospital, but the confirmation from the doctor solidified the harsh
reality.
The only one who could not accept reality was Bella.
“No... It's impossible. Linny is strong. That can't possibly happen!”
Bella shook the doctor's arms violently and spoke gruffly. The
distress took hold of her.
“Easy there, Bella. Calm down.”
Justin hugged her tight from the back, wishing he could take the pain away. “I
don't think Linny suffered much when she left. We can’t bring
her back from the dead, but we can seek justice for her.”
Linny was not Bella's family. Heck, she was not even a friend to Bella.

The woman, in a selfless act, gave her life to save Bella. The guilt gnawed at
Bella's conscience.
From Bella's perspective, it felt no different than if she herself had
pulled the trigger.
“It's all my fault. It's my fault. I killed her...”
Bella's gushing tears rolled off her gaunt jaw as she kept poking herself in the
chest. She ached for a blade that was sharp enough to
tear her open and expose the raw wound within.
Justin ached with her, the lump in his throat a silent scream of grief.
When Bella opened her eyes again, she was in bed and on an IV drip.
Ralph, Asher, and Declan dealt with the aftermath, while Axel and
Drew stayed with Bella.
“Drew...” Bella cried.
“I'm here, Bella.” Sitting next to the bed, Drew held her hand tight.
“Linny told me before her passing that she had important evidence on
her phone, but the phone was shattered from a fall. I can't turn it on. Can you do
something to get the phone data?"
“No problem. Leave it to me.”

but the dread was too much to bear.

Feeling assured, Bella nodded and shut her eyes.
“What's the secret, Bella?”
Axel was sharp and picked up on the cues. “The people who attacked
you tonight... Are they after the secret? Did the girl die because of
that secret?”

Bella clenched her fists, her nails digging into her palms.
She needed the pain to keep a clear mind. The pain would remind her
of the hate and anger.
Bella wanted vengeance.
