“Hiss” Josiah frowned and gritted his teeth. His face was ashen
However, he didn’t have time to think. Holding his breath, he raised his hand and swiftly stormed the viper to the ground. At the same time, he grabbed a rock and smashed it hard into the viper’s heart position precisely.
The viper’s til twitched on the ground for a momen before falling still. It was dead.
“Ah… Josiah released his grip. His knees buckled as he opened his mouth and gaped for air.
He then lifted his arm and pulled up his sleeve. His face instantly turned a few shades paler
The wound was small and inconspicuous, and there were actually two wounds near his wrist.
He h
had been bitten twice.
What about Conner? Josiah wondered
He wasn’t sure when the viper had wrapped itself around Conner, nor was he sure if the latter had been bitten.
“Damn it” Josiah’s breathing gradually quickened. He walked up to Conner and carried him on his back again.
Josiah had to hurry.
He had been poisoned by the venom, so he could not hold on any longer but had to meet up with the Evans family as soon as possible. However, this time, Josiah clearly felt his strength failing him.
The moment Conner’s weight fell on his back, he felt as if he was crushed by a mountain.
“Sienna, Joyce,” Josiah muttered the two names, for only in this way could be hold on.
His thin lips were tightly pursed, and his t teeth clenched.
Gradually, his breathing became rapid, and he couldn’t help but gasp for air.
Slowly, his vision blurred.
His limbs went weak and he could no longer exert any strength. Cold sweat glistened on his forehead and rolled down his cheeks.
There seemed to be black shadows before his eyes when he almost blacked out.
He could not hold on any longer.
His heart seemed to stop beating
Josiah’s knees buckled and his eyelids drooped. Before losing consciousness, he reached out his arms and slumped forward.
That way, he could at least cushion Conner’s fall with the latter lying on his back.
On the path ahead, approaching footsteps rang out.
“Mr. Brown, someone’s over there! one of the bodyguards exclaimed.
“Is it Mr. Evans?” asked Eihan.
“I’m not sure,” said the bodyguard
“Go and check it out‘ Ethan undered.
“Mr. Brown, it’s Mr. Fischer, Oh… And Mr. Evans Mr. Evans is here too, sald the bodyguard.
“What?” Exban was shocked.
Ethan rushed over and helped up Josiah, who was unconscious. “Mr. Evans, Mr. Evans, what happened to your

The doctor glanced at him and said hastily. “His vital signs are stable, and no other conditions have been found for the time being. Get in the

“Okay I got it” Cedne nodded.
Most importantly, Conner had been found.
he turned back to get to the car, he saw another stretcher.
The person on the stretcher was lying down, so he couldn’t tell who it was at first. However, the doctors and nurses around him looked more tense than the two who were with Conner.
While running with the stretcher, a nurse was holding a breathing bag to help the casualty breathe.
Beads, the stretcher was followed by a group of people.
Ethan was running after the stretcher, almost in tears.
“Mr. Evana Mr. Evans, please be safe?” Ethan said.
Mr. Andy Evans asked me to follow Mr. Edgar Evans out for work, so I have to be responsible for Mr. Edgar Evans‘ safety. If anything happened to Mr. Edgar Evans, how can I get Mr. Andy Evans a replacement son” Ethan was anxious.
Andy had six sons and three daughters, but out of so many children, only one of them turned out to be capable.
It was not easy to get Jouah to agree to return to the Evans family
Ethan with red eyes, threatened the doctors and nurses, “If anything happens to Mr. Evans, 11 sear down this hospital.
“We got it,” said the medical staff.
Cedric, who was standing aside, frowned. He was full of doubts. “Edgar Evans? Is there someone with the name Edgar from the Evans family!
He thought it was because he had been abroad for too long, and that was why he had never heard of or seen Elgar in the Evans family.
He approached the ambulance.
Ju all the personnel backed away when the stretcher was lifted onto the vehicle, Cedric saw the profile of the casualty who was lying on the

Cedric’s heart skipped a heat as he
He took a step forward to see what was going on, but the door of the ambulance was closed.
At the same time, the ambulaise that Comnet was in had already set off.
There was no time left. Cedric quickly turned back, opened the car door, got in, and followed the ambulance.
In the emergency room of the hospital, Sienna rushed over from the inpatient building after receiving a call from Cedric. “Cedric
From a distance, she saw Cedric waiting for her at the gate.

“Slow down” Cedric reached out to help her up while going up the stairs as he was worried that she would fall down.
Tm hne” Sienna panted, shook her head, stood firmly, and stretched her neck to look inside.
“You said Conner had been found. Is that true? Where is he?” asked Sienna.
Nes” Cedric nodded and pointed inside. “When they found him, he was unconscious and is being rescued inside now.”
“Being rescued… Sienna’s heart skipped a beat. “Is he injured? Is it serious?”
“We can’t be sure yet.” Cedric shook his head and said truthfully.
“But don’t worry too much. The 911 paramedics said his vital signs are stable, and there were no obvious external injuries… However, he needs a thorough check–up. We’ll know more when he wakes up,” said Cedric
“Oh…” Sienna clutched her ciest, feeling a slight relief, but her heart still pounded with worry.
She looked up at Cedric. Her eyes were red as she said, “Cedric… Thank you. Thank you so much.”
She knew that those words couldn’t express her gratitude enough.
“It’s nothing..” Cedric shook his head with mixed feelings.
