Five Years Wasted Now They Beg Her Back novel Chapter 150

The person he wanted to save was being held in another man’s arms.

And the person who wanted her dead had, at the last second, steered herself into destruction to avoid hurting him.

The sound of police and ambulance sirens grew closer.

Damien’s assistant and bodyguards arrived on the scene as quickly as possible.

“Mr. Clarke!”

“Take care of it,” Damien said, helping Grace to her feet, his expression icy. “The driver, and that eyesore over there. I don’t want to see either of them again.”

“Yes, sir!”

He didn’t spare another glance for Ethan or Lilian, instead leading Grace, who was still a bit unsteady, to a nearby car.

The moment the car door closed, it shut out all the chaos and noise from outside.

Inside, Grace curled up in Damien’s arms, still able to feel the slight tension in his body.

She looked up and saw the hard line of his jaw.

He was shaken, too.

Grace reached out and gently touched the cut on his forehead.

“Does it hurt?”

Damien took her hand, brought it to his lips for a kiss, and shook his head.

“As long as you’re okay, it doesn’t hurt.”

Grace felt her eyes welling up again.

She said nothing, simply leaning in and kissing his lips.

The kiss was filled with the relief of surviving a disaster and a deep affection that could no longer be hidden.

Damien was momentarily surprised, then he took the lead, deepening the kiss.

The attempted murder ended with Lilian being arrested for her severe injuries.

Her mental state was already unstable, and with the added charge of attempted murder, she would likely spend the rest of her life in prison.

Under subsequent pressure from Damien, Ethan’s company officially declared bankruptcy.

He sold off all his assets to barely cover his debts and then disappeared from the city's elite circles.
