"I can't leave you here alone, William. If we're going to die, we die together!" Lynn exclaimed.

| questioned what she meant by dying. | didn't want to die.

| glared at Lynn angrily. "Calm down! Call the police. As long as you bring help, we can both survive!"

| was being as clear as possible, but she kept shaking her head. "I won't leave you alone. If anyone's going, it's

you. You go call the police."

| was losing patience.

Maximus' target was her. If she stayed, she would definitely be in trouble. | would just get beaten up, but at least

| wouldn't suffer anything worse. How could she not see that?

Mark had already moved toward us and charged atas she refused to listen.

| dodged in time, but he was fast and immediately lunged atagain. This time, | was a little slower, and he

grabbed my shoulder, slammingto the ground.

Before | could react, his large foot ctoward my stomach. Without thinking, | rolled to the side and crawled

under a table. He crouched, reaching for my ankle. | panickedly pulled out a self-defense knife from my pocket

and stabbed at his arm.

He tried to pull back, but it was too late. The knife plunged into his arm, and blood began to spill. He grunted in

pain and withdrew his hand. Now that | had a weapon, | wasn't as afraid anymore.

Without it, | would be no match for these two. But with a knife in hand, | wasn't scared at all. | crawled out from

under the table and took a glance.

Mark was still behind the table, and Maximus was two tables away. As long as | moved fast enough, | could

subdue him with the knife before Mark could catch up.

With that thought, | rushed at Maximus.

Mark seemed to realize what | was planning and tried to stop me. But was faster. | reached Maximus in an instant

and, without hesitation,

in the knife into his shoulder.

His eyes widened in shock. He probably never expectedto be this ruthless to stab him like that.

He had probably never been hurt this badly in his life. As the blood poured from

his shoulder, he screamed in terror, nearly fainting from the shock.

At this moment, Mark also rushed over. His expression turned vicious when he

he saw that Maximus was injured. He grabbed a bottle from the counter and threw it at me

| didn't have tto dodge.

The sound of the bottle shattering echoed, but there was no pain. Lynn had suddenly appeared in front of me,

taking the hit. Blood poured from her head, and | was stunned. Mark was also equally taken aback.

"Quick! Don't worry about them, Mark! Taketo the hospital. Hurry!"

At that moment, Maximus screamed, likely terrified by the heavy bleeding from his shoulder. He dragged Mark

out of the bar in a panic.

As soon as they left, | didn't hesitate. | helped Lynn out of the bar and rushed to the hospital.

Over an hour later, the doctors had finally finished checking the wound on her head.
