Chapter 723 Who Exactly Is It?

When this thought occurred to him, Bradley's face immediately changed.

Freya also carefully speculated on all this, ultimately attributing all the targets to herself.

She looked at Bradley and said in a firm voice, "I think this is an assassination targeting me, and the target is me!"

But she couldn't figure out who it was.

Jade?

No, even if she succeeded the position of the former master of Raven Pavilion, she wouldn't have the ability to sneak into the Imperial Garden Villa so unnoticed.

Jasmine?

This woman is even less likely.

Could it be... One?

Freya shook her head, One had already fallen off the cliff, how could it be her. Apart from these people, she couldn't think of anyone else who would target her. Besides the renowned physician Shadow and the fashion designer Julia, both of these identities have been publicly disclosed, all her other identities are kept secret, so it's impossible for anyone to know. "Bradley, I have a premonition that the days ahead won't be peaceful!" Freya clenched her fist, feeling uneasy. In recent times, despite being carefully protected by Mu Bradley, she always felt unsettled. Especially as the baby started moving in her womb, this feeling became more pronounced. Mu Bradley gently embraced her shoulder, his voice slightly solemn, "No matter who it is, they will eventually reveal their true colors. Stay at home and take care of the baby as much as possible, try not to go out. As for the trip back to the Southern Country, we can postpone it until after this matter is resolved." "I'm sorry, I... have caused trouble for you again!" Freya pressed her face against his chest, her voice tinged with regret.

The man gently stroked her head and coaxed her softly, "Don't be afraid. Even if the sky falls, I will be here to support you. Right now, you need to rest more and not worry too much. It's not good for the physical and mental development of the child."

"Okay, I understand. Let's go check on Ella first!"

Moments ago, Ella shielded her from all the glass shards with her own body, protecting her from harm, but her hands were inevitably cut.

Now, her hands were still tingling slightly, not to mention the injuries on Ella's entire back.

"Alright!"

...

In the medical room.

Ella lay on the bed, with countless glass shards on her back, making it very frightening.

Xavier sat beside her, his hand holding the forceps trembling.

"Ella, it will be very painful to remove the shards later. Can you bear it?"

Due to physical reasons, Ella cannot be given anesthesia, so now she can only directly remove the fragments. However, the sharp and intense pain is unbearable and heart-wrenching, something that the average person would find difficult to endure.

"Go ahead, I can bear this pain!"

The feeling of being stabbed in the heart by Jade years ago was much more painful than it is now, so for her, this slight pain is just the tip of the iceberg and nothing to fear.

Seeing her like this, Xavier felt heartbroken.

But as a doctor and her man, he could only helplessly watch her endure the pain.

At this moment, Xavier felt powerless.

"Okay, if the pain becomes unbearable later, just call out!"

"Alright!"

Looking at the man in front of her who was trying so hard for her, Ella felt the pain seemed to lessen a bit, leaving her only with a sense of gratitude.

Her entire back is covered in glass shards, and she can only lie on the hospital bed on her stomach.

Xavier carefully cut open the fabric behind her, and when he saw the densely packed wounds on her back, his fists tightened uncontrollably.

"How is Ella?"

At this moment, an anxious voice came from outside, and Freya and Bradley appeared at the door.

Because Ella was injured on her back, her clothes were in disarray at the moment. Bradley did not want to come in and waited outside, only Freya walked in.

"Freya, I'm fine."

Seeing Freya's tearful face, Ella deeply understood her current self-blame.

"How can you be fine? You are like a hedgehog now, and because of your physical condition, you can't be numbed."

Tears streamed down Freya's face again.

If it wasn't for her, Ella wouldn't have been injured. The person lying here was her.

Ella smiled at her and reached out to hold her small hand, "I'm fine. I've endured even more pain. This little injury is nothing, really, don't blame yourself."

If Freya were injured, she would definitely blame herself more. After all, she was pregnant, and if anything happened, it would be two lives at stake. "Fool, if there is a next time, I won't allow you to do this," Freya's tears flowed even more urgently, and even her hand holding her was trembling. "But if there is a next time, I will still do the same. Don't forget, my life was saved by you." Ella's eyes were also red. Without Freya, she would not be where she is now. Everything she has today was all given by Freya. So no matter if it's next time or the time after, when danger comes, she will still rush to the front. The two sisters wept facing each other like this, until they heard the voice of Xavier in their ears, "Freya, the fragments on Ella's back must be removed immediately, otherwise it may cause the wound to become infected." "Okay." Freya wiped away her tears, making room for Xavier. When the clothes were cut, Ella clenched her fists, waiting for the pain to come.

Although Xavier's movements had slowed down, it was inevitable to encounter the shards of glass, the piercing pain hit her, making her unable to help but gasp for air.

Her fair face was covered with a dense layer of sweat!

Xavier's whole heart was aching, but he forcibly suppressed this emotion, extracting the shards from her back.

With each extraction, a large burst of blood flowers would follow.

"Ella, don't bite your lip, if it hurts, just scream out loud."

Freya watched her like this, feeling the same unbearable heartache.

When she saved her, she was unconscious, so she didn't feel any pain no matter how intense it was.

But now, the pain was clearly visible.

Freya thought to herself, if it were herself in that situation, she feared she wouldn't be able to bear it.

Afraid that she was in too much pain, Xavier handled the procedure with extreme care, taking more than two hours to complete what should have been a half-hour operation.

A nurse stood by, holding a tray filled with fragments removed, all stained with blood, looking extremely terrifying. Xavier was also sweating profusely at this moment. After removing the glass fragments, he personally bandaged Ella's wound before leaving the space to Freya. He and Bradley went to the office. The man had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw him coming in, he asked in a low voice, "Is Ella okay now?" "Hmm, there is no immediate danger to life, but during this time, she can't walk. The wound on her back will inevitably leave a scar!" Xavier, exhausted, sat down and leaned on the sofa, his voice slightly cold. "By the way, have any clues been found in this sudden attack on Yolandajing Villa, targeting the master bedroom? The target of the assailant is obvious, either for Ella or for Freya!"
