Chapter 779 Will He Die
On the street, Gilbert tugged at Kisa and frowned. “Listen to me. It is dangerous here. Come with me to the sidewalk.

Kisa was surprisingly strong and stubborn when she was drunk. She shook off his hand. “Go away. I don’t need you to care about me.”
Gilbert had no choice but to follow behind to protect her. He checked around from time to time whether there were vehicles coming. Just after he checked and thought it was safe, he heard a vehicle coming from behind. It sounded like the vehicle was moving fast as if it would slam into them the next second. He hurriedly looked back and saw a white car speeding toward them. What frightened him even more was that Kisa was six feet away from him, and the car was speeding toward Kisa. There was no time to look at the car’s license plate. He instinctively lunged at Kisa and pushed her away with great force. Strangely, the car suddenly changed its direction just as it was about to hit him. But the car’s front side had still slammed against Gilbert, knocking him several feet out. The car did not stop but instantly sped up and disappeared into the distance.
In the car, Jensen sat straight. The newspaper crumpled in his hands. Mia looked at him cautiously and did not
dare to make a sound. She was tempted to ask Adrien why
he was doing this, but she did not dare. Adrien was a man who was selfish and ruthless. She had learned his cruelty in the early years.

“I’m sorry, Gilbert. Wake up! Wake up!” She cried in a trembling voice, but Gilbert did not respond. She hurriedly took out her cell phone to dial the emergency number, but because of fear and anxiety, it took her a while to unlock it after several failed attempts. After notifying the emergency service, she fell helplessly to the ground and stared at Gilbert, who lay unconscious on the ground. He had once again saved her with no regard for his own safety. She asked herself why she still wanted to doubt his sincerity after all this. She covered her face in grief, filled with remorse and self–recrimination.
The ambulance arrived, and she watched Gilbert being laid on a stretcher and carried into the ambulance, her heart bleeding. As she slowly hugged herself tightly and looked at the puddle of blood on the ground, a chill
rushed up her spine as she asked in her mind, ‘Will he die?
