A Crazy Wife novel Chapter 36

With a sluggish look, Chester Shahbaz gets puzzled for a while.

"Nothing, keep quiet and take care of yourself."

With those words, there is another bullet which whizzes close to Chester Shahbaz's ear root and leaves a bloodstain on it.

Hannah Joseph dare not move, saying in a low voice.

"Who are they?"

"Anyone is possible," Chester Shahbaz looks Calm. After looking around, he fixes his eyes on the soldier on the copilot seat in the front row. "Didn't you just say you wanted to help me?"

"Yes." Hannah Joseph returns to her mind, "What do you want me to do?"

"Take that gun to me."

The gun is carried on the shoulder of the copilot soldier. At the moment, the soldier is bleeding. His body most probably gets cold.

Hannah Joseph gasps.

"Scared?" Asks Chester Shahbaz.

Fear is human nature, let alone such a woman as Hannah Joseph.

"Give me a knife." But Hannah Joseph holds out her hand to him. "And you press me so hard, so I can't move and reach it. You move.”

Later, in Chester Shahbaz's surprised eyes, Hannah Joseph takes a Swiss army knife, crawls below the seat, cuts the rope tied to the gun with the knife and takes the gun from the soldier.

In the whole process, she is very calm and doesn’t even shake hands.

"Here you are."

Hannah Joseph lies on the foot board below the seat and hands the disassembled submachine gun to Chester Shahbaz who lies on the seat.

Chester Shahbaz doesn’t have time to think about it. He holds the gun at a comfortable angle in his hand, puts it on the window full of broken glass and shots at several figures at the flower bed in the distance.

"The enemy is destroyed in the direction of “12 o'clock”. I will draw fire. You check the sniper on the top floor of the building as soon as possible."

"Yes."

For an instant, Hannah Joseph's ears are full of the whooshing shooting sound and the scream of the enemy falling to the ground.

She can see Chester Shahbaz's cold face when she looks up. At the moment, he has a good command like a real soldier. His charm is showed fully.

It's hard to imagine how an outstanding man like him could conquer man's dignity and competitive mind after he injured his leg in the drill.

With unspoken criticism, Hannah Joseph is thinking to herself when there is a voice of Chester Shahbaz's subordinate in the walkie-talkie.

"The sniper investigation is completed. Special forces in the fourth area have arrived. The enemy situation is basically relieved. Are you okay, chief?"

"I am okay."

Chester Shahbaz puts down the gun. A guard outside the car comes to open the car door for Chester Shahbaz. After getting off the car, he sits in the wheelchair and looks at Hannah Joseph, who is slapping dust on her clothes as if nothing has happened. The doubt in his eyes is deeper.

Hannah Joseph is choked by the smell of bullets and sneezes violently. When she turns around, she sees from the corners of her eyes a black chapped hole in the rearview mirror.

She is still in a daze. There is a huge push behind her, accompanied by Chester Shahbaz's deep shout,

"Get out of the way..."

With the words unfinished, a bullet crashes over Hannah Joseph's head and hits the door straightly, leaving a big black gray coke mark as big as a palm.

Two bodyguards close to Chester Shahbaz kill the ambush attackers in the flower bed almost instantly.

Hannah Joseph falls to the ground and covers her chest, with a lingering fear.

Although she has died once, the feeling of dying is really frightening no matter how many times she has.

"Chief, are you hurt?"

It is a voice of the guard.

Hannah Joseph hurriedly gets up and staggers over there, "are you ok?"

Chester Shahbaz just pushes her aside by hand. Under the reaction force, the wheelchair retreats rapidly. His arm rubs against the broken glass on the window. Now it is bloody and the sleeve of his shirt is dyed red.

"I’m fine, got the first aid kit."

Chester Shahbaz looks calm. After giving an order, he gets on another car with the help of Hannah Joseph. The guard takes the first-aid supplies to the car.

"You have to go to the hospital." Hannah Joseph looks at his wound with concern.

After all, he gets wounded because of her. From this point of view, Chester Shahbaz is not particularly cold.

"Didn’t you learn simple bandaging?"

Chester Shahbaz's voice brings her back to reality. Her face changes a little.

"What's the matter?" Chester Shahbaz looks at her face, and his eyes gradually get deeper and deeper. "Can’t you?"

"Of course I can."

Hannah Joseph manages to open the first aid kit. "I haven't practiced for a long time. I am a little rusty. If you don't mind, I'll give you a simple bandage first. Then deal with it again in the hospital."

"I don't mind."

Hearing it, Hannah Joseph’s heart is thumping. She has to follow her memory to find the medicine to treat the wound.

Alcohol, gauze, cotton ball…the steps in her memory are very detailed. Hannah Joseph is a little flustered at first, but when she gets these things, she suddenly feels familiar with them, and now she is at ease.

Sure enough, she used to study medicine. She has even practiced her hand feeling. She knows where to wipe and pack at first, without thinking too much.

"Well, don't touch water in these days."

Hannah Joseph packs the medicine box and says confidently, "it seems that my skill is the same as before. You don't need to go to the hospital to bandage again."

Chester Shahbaz looks at her, with his eyes deep.

"I remember you just told me that you studied jewelry design for eight years."

"That's an elective course."

After a while, she has already thought about how to deal with it. "It's my hobby. I've been learning for many years, but I haven't had a chance to learn it systematically, so I ask my father to give me a chance to work in the design department of the company."

"Really?" Chester Shahbaz's eyes are deep. He says meaningfully, "you have enough time to study medicine as well as jewelry design."

"I like it." Hannah Joseph smiles at him calmly. She looks frank, natural and doesn’t show any flaws.

The jeep arrives at the Shahbaz's house.

The Shahbaz family also hear about the attack. In the beginning, Lily Pons cries loudly, complaining that the security provided by the army is not enough. Finally, she still cries, complaining her life is so bitter. After being scolded by Bryant Shahbaz, she doesn’t dare to cry any more.

Bryant Shahbaz looks at Chester Shahbaz and asks, "I hear that you went to the Joseph family today?"

"Yes."

Bryant Shahbaz nods thoughtfully, "You should go to the Joseph family once. After all, you've been married for three years. Three years ago, you were not in good health. You didn't go back with Hannah. It's right to make up this time, but it's a bit of a coincidence that you were attacked."

When it comes to this, Chester Shahbaz's eyes gather a cold light.

"It's a bit of a coincidence."

The Shahbaz family lives near the military region. Usually he goes out to almost no other place than the army. But today when he comes back, something happens. It's hard to believe that no one prepared it first.
