Secretly Married: Don't Mess With The CEO's Wife novel Chapter 508

Luke Jenkins felt rather shocked upon watching Julian Shaw run about wildly with Mandy Ainsley in his arms.

Mandy? Why would Mandy block the bullet?

He had blocked the bullet out of instinct because he loved Susan Shelby!

However, the reason Mandy had blocked the bullet was…

Luke suddenly did not have the courage to think further.

He clenched his teeth and charged toward them.

As for the policeman that had been shot by Julian on the spot, someone would come over to handle that later.

In case there was a shooting incident, Julian’s group of people had been supposed to stay back and assist in the investigation.

However, no one had dared to step forward and stop them upon seeing the vehicle registration plate on Julian’s car.

Julian started the engine and drove at full speed toward the nearest hospital.

Susan applied pressure on Mandy’s gunshot wound in a panic, her voice shaking. “Mandy, hold on, you have to hold on. We’re going to reach the hospital soon. You’re going to be fine for sure.”

“Susie.” Mandy grabbed Susan’s hand. “You know that I won’t live long anyway. I managed to save you this time so my death will be more valuable than the past.”

“No, you’re going to be just fine.” Susan’s voice was tainted by sobs.

Mandy held Susan’s hand tighter. “Susie, I don’t fear death, but remember the matter that I entrusted to you…”

“Don’t worry. I will certainly keep my promise and do what you entrusted me with.” Susan’s eyes reddened.

From the moment she had promised to take care of Lucas Jenkins, she had been planning to take care of Lucas like he was her own child.

Now that Mandy had died for her, she had to raise this child even better.

“Good.” Mandy’s face cracked into a weak smile. “Your promise puts me at ease.”

Mandy found using her life in exchange for Susan’s guilt very, very worth it, as she had only a few days left.

‘Luca, that is all I can do for you. Julian and Susan are people who value relationships very much. You will certainly live a good life from now on.’

Mandy’s lips curled into a gentle smile with a tinge of regret.

If she had known that she would not be seeing Luca again when she had left the house that day, she would certainly have taken a few more glances at Luca before going out.

However, she felt at ease knowing that Luca would be living a good life in the future.

“Mandy, you…” Luke had a complicated expression on his face as he listened from the side.

He had no idea since when Mandy had such a close relationship with Susan. She had even entrusted Susie with a task?

“Luke.” Mandy turned her head to the side and stared at Luke quietly. A gentle smile that had never appeared before flashed past her gaze. “Are you aware that I’m about to die?”

“You’re going to be fine,” said Luke in a deep voice.

Mandy shook her head and said, “In the past, you never held me sincerely even once. Now that I’m about to die, will you hold me?”

Luke looked at the blood-stained clothes on Mandy’s body and then stretched out his arms and held her in his arms gently.

Mandy had been adorable when she was young. Whenever she’d laughed, it had felt as if the sky had turned brighter.

How had everything changed afterward?

He figured that Mandy had fallen in love with him, yet he had fallen in love with Susan.

Intense jealousy had blinded Mandy and turned her into the woman with the repulsive face in his memories.

Now, after letting go of the enmity of the past, hearing Mandy call him Big Brother Luke awakened the good parts of his memories.

His gaze softened.

Mandy rubbed her face against Luke’s chest softly and then said in a gentle voice, “Big Brother Luke, I made so many mistakes in my lifetime. Perhaps, the biggest mistake I made was falling in love with you, yet if I was given another choice, I would still choose to fall in love with you. This is because if I didn’t love you, I would have no idea what the meaning of my life is…”

Mandy’s wound was constantly bleeding while her voice was growing weaker and weaker. However, the sentiment in her words moved everyone.

Susan listened to her from the side and felt the urge to cry. Luke, who was the person concerned, felt the same.

Even though Mandy had made countless mistakes, she was about to die now. Her evil nature had begun to reduce slowly, while her kindness was becoming prominent.

“Mandy, it’s my fault.” Luke’s lips were trembling.

Mandy shook her head. “I love you, and that’s my issue. You don’t love me, and that’s your issue. The problem with love and relationships is that they can’t be explained clearly right from the start. Cough, cough, cough, cough, cough…”

As Mandy was speaking, she began coughing violently.

“Mandy, stop speaking!” said Luke hastily.
