One night Two babies by Liz Pinelis novel Chapter 26

"Sorry." Just when Violet hadn't thought of where she smelt the scent, Stanley suddenly grabbed her shoulder and interrupted her thoughts.

In desperation, Violet didn’t have the time to think about it temporarily.

"Get ready! One, two, run!" The middle-aged man raised the competition gun and pulled the trigger.

Bang!

With the crisp sound of gunfire, Stanley first walked to the front and reminded Violet, "Let's go."

"Okay." Violet quickly responded, focusing on keeping up with him.

However, although the two started very smoothly, they were still not as good as the two children.

The two children were of the same height and grew up together. They knew each other very well. At the moment the gunshots sounded, they already walked so fast and left them behind.

As Arya was walking forward, she turned her head back and shouted, "Mom, Dad, hurry up!"

"Mom, Dad, you are going to lose." Calvin also said.

How could Violet not know that the two little guys were laughing at them? She felt a little bit funny.

"We have to walk faster." Stanley looked at the finish line which was still far away, then looked at the two little guys who were about to run to the halfway, and then he said with his eyes narrowed slightly.

Violet also knew that they would really lose if she didn't hurry up, so she took a breath and agreed to speed up.

Adults’ legs were always longer than children’s. After speeding up, they quickly caught up with the two children and walked past them.

Seeing that victory was ahead, Violet's face suddenly froze.

Because she saw that the curtain board supporting the finish line rope was shaking.

In the next second, a screw fell, and the board fell apart and fell towards her and Stanley.

Violet was shocked. Before she had time to think about it, she immediately threw herself to Stanley, but she herself was hit to the foot by the falling board.

This scene scared everyone in the restaurant. The middle-aged man who hosted the game was almost scared to death. He immediately called for someone to come over.

Soon, the security of the restaurant took away the curtain board.

Stanley untied the rope on his leg and then helped Violet up. When he looked at her bloody ankle, his heart skipped a beat, "You..."

"Mr. Murphy, are you okay?" Violet asked with a pale face and cold sweat.

Stanley said, "I'm fine."

"Well." Violet breathed a sigh of relief.

Stanley looked at her with extremely complicated eyes, "Why did you save me?"

He saw it clearly. The moment the board fell down, she came to rescue him at the first time, without any hesitation.

She seemed very afraid of him getting hurt.

"It's normal to save people." Violet smiled and replied weakly.

He was here to help her. If he got injured, she would be so sorry.

"Mommy, are you okay?" Calvin ran over with Arya and asked anxiously.

Arya cried, "Mommy, you are bleeding..."

Seeing the two little babies were worried about her, Violet felt warm. She comforted them with enduring the pain, "Okay, don't worry about me. I’m fine."

"How could it be okay? Your skin is broken." Calvin clenched his small fist and glared at Stanley, "It's all your fault. If it wasn't for saving you, Mommy wouldn't get hurt."

"Calvin!" Violet frowned and yelled, "How can you talk to uncle like this? It is Mommy's voluntary to save uncle. It has nothing to do with uncle."

"But..." Calvin's eyes were red. He wanted to say something.

Stanley looked down at Calvin, "You are right! Your Mommy was injured to save me. I will be responsible for this matter."

Calvin raised his head. After staring at Stanley for a few seconds, he snorted and turned his head again, which meant that he accepted Stanley’s apologize.

Stanley raised his eyebrows, feeling surprised.
