The Agent's Blood: The Bodyguard's Legacy のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 81 - チャプター 90

Evander waited tensely for Hazel's answer. He couldn't see Noah's condition for himself, as Elena was watching Hazel from the other side of the parking lot."Hazel?" Evander asked impatiently."I can't talk right now. I'll call you later."Evander's eyes widened as Hazel ended the call. He could only let out a frustrated sigh, trying to contain the overwhelming unease churning inside him. He glanced toward Hazel, who was standing with Alice and Dom.His anxiety spiked when he saw Elena walking in their direction. Caught between confusion and panic, Evander didn't know what to do. The only thing he could think of was to call Hazel again and urge her to get away and avoid Elena."Hurry, get out of there!" Evander hissed into the phone.Hazel didn't ask questions. She quickly excused herself, saying she was going to a restroom in the other direction, and rushed away just as Elena was approaching the emergency room entrance.Elena walked with long strides, but just before she reached the

Tears streamed down Elena's cheeks as she drove. She gripped the wheel, overcome with anger and disappointment. The road ahead was a blur, her vision clouded by the constant flow of tears. She ignored the blaring horns and angry shouts from other drivers. As she rounded a bend, her tires hit a slick patch of oil. The car skidded, and she yanked the steering wheel to the left.From the opposite direction, another vehicle’s sharp headlights suddenly blinded her. Startled, Elena spun the wheel back to the right. At such a high speed and on the slick pavement, she lost control. The car veered off the road and plunged down an embankment lined with oak trees.“Ah!” Elena screamed, her eyes wide as her headlights illuminated a massive oak directly in her path.“No, no!” she cried, but it was too late to swerve. The car slammed into the tree.CRACK!The impact threw Elena forward, her head striking the steering wheel with violent force. The airbag failed to deploy. The car came to a dead stop

Dawn was breaking. The clock read 5:00 a.m. The hospital was still quiet, free from the usual daytime bustle of visiting families. Only the on-duty nurses and doctors moved through the halls, making their final rounds before their shifts ended.Evander was asleep on the sofa. He had spent the entire night watching over Elena as she fought a high fever. Exhausted, he slept deeply, a soft snore escaping his lips.In the bed, Elena began to stir. She opened her eyes and winced, blinking against a wave of dizziness. Her mouth was dry, and she was desperate for a drink. She turned her head to the right, where a pitcher of water sat. She wanted to reach for the glass beside it, but she was still too weak. On top of the injuries from the accident, the fever had drained the last of her energy.As she stretched out her hand, the door to her room opened. A male doctor in a mask entered, followed by Anna, the nurse who had checked on her the previous day. The young woman smiled at her."Good mor

Alice shook her head, her hand flying to her mouth to stifle a sob."No. No. They can't. They can't take my Noah," she murmured, her eyes wide and wet with tears.Dom gasped. Alice was having a panic attack, clearly in deep shock. He immediately pulled her into a tight embrace. She wept silently into his chest."Calm down, sweetheart. Noah will always be with us," Dom whispered, trying to soothe her.For a few moments, they stood in silence, holding each other as Alice’s quiet sobs filled the room.Alice pulled away and wiped her tears, looking up at Dom. "Who are they?" she asked.Dom took a heavy breath. "They're the couple I helped during that accident, and...""And what?" Alice prompted when Dom trailed off.Dom shook his head slowly. "I have to confirm something, because I suspect there might be a connection between all of this," he said.Alice frowned, not understanding what her husband was trying to say.Dom sat on the sofa, and Alice followed. He took several deep breaths. So

Evander went home with Hazel. He couldn't go back to Elena's house, not right now. His thoughts were a tangled mess, and he couldn't think clearly.Hazel remained silent, offering no commentary. She let him sit alone on the sofa, lost in his own troubled mind. This wasn't what she wanted. A strange pain, laced with fear, had taken hold of her when she learned that Elena wanted to leave Evander."I don't want to see you broken, Evan. This isn't what I wanted," Hazel said from the doorway."I don't know what to do, Hazel. I'm... at a dead end," Evander sighed, his head bowed low.Silence fell between them.When Evander finally looked up, he turned to Hazel and held out his hand."Come here," he asked, his eyes filled with sorrow.Hazel felt a pull toward him. She walked over, accepted his hand, and sat down beside him."I'm sorry, I've only caused you pain. This is all my fault, you're not to blame for any of it," Evander said, looking at her. "I'm not going to ask you to stay with me,
