Chapter 96 96: Daddy Is Injured.

Leo was gazing at the waiter, he didn't care if the system issued a task or not. He knew one thing only, that he had to kill these men. The waiter locked eyes with Leo and aimed his gun at him as he said, "What are you staring at?" Leo looked at the man and said slowly, "I told you, not to harm her. I told you, but you didn't listen." The waiter approached Leo and stood half a meter away from him as he asked, "What would you do?" Leo took a deep breath, he leaned a bit forward, and his fist dug in the abdomen of the waiter. The movement was so quick that the assailant couldn't even react. The gun fell, but before it could fall down, Leo caught it. He aimed it directly at the man on the stage. Bang! The man on the stage didn't expect this and he was hit right in the shoulder and fell down. Leo quickly used his foot to push away the waiter, and then re-aimed his pistol, before squeezing the trigger, Bang! Someone yelled, "Boss!" Leo quickly turned to look in the direction, and he caught sight of an assailant raising his gun, but Leo was quicker, he squeezed the trigger once again, Bang! Earlier when he was checking the surroundings to confirm his danger perception, he had noticed six waiters, two were down, that meant four more were left. His danger perception again picked up the threat and he turned his gun and fired a shot. Followed by this, he quickly fired three more shots, and the auditorium descended into silence. The shootout had left the people in a state of shock. Many of the faint hearted even fainted directly. Suddenly, a lady screamed, and she was joined by many people. Leo raised his head to look at the people and said, "Shut up!" His voice was so loud that it shocked everyone and they fell silent. Leo asked, "Is there any doctor present? My daughter is hurt, please check her." Suddenly, Leo sensed a strong danger behind him. He turned around and saw that the man on the stage had raised his gun again and it was aimed at Snow and Lily. Leo quickly moved over and fired a shot. Bang! Bang! The people ducked and gasped, although Leo managed to shoot the assailant but he was still a little slow and got hit in the shoulder. The assailant fell down, and Leo groaned. Snow sensed something and looked at him with her eyes wide open. She asked hurriedly, "Leo, are you okay?" Leo nodded, but he didn't turn back until he calmed down, and got used to the pain. He turned around and his left shoulder was bleeding profusely, dyeing his blazer crimson. The young man looked around and asked, "Is there any doctor present here?" One man stood up and walked over with some sweat on his forehead. He said, "I am a doctor." Leo nodded and said, "Thank you doctor, but can you please check her?" The doctor looked at him in surprise and said, "You have a bullet wound, sit down first." Leo did as he was told and sat down in his seat. Then he took off his tie. The doctor checked Lily and said, "She is fine, just some light swelling on the back of her head. She will be fine. We can use ice to treat her." Snow nodded and said, "Doctor, please check my husband, he is bleeding a lot." The doctor moved to check on Leo and he said, "The bullet is inside, we need to get you to the hospital as soon as possible." Just then, Kyle ran inside from the side door, and looked around before coming to Leo's side and whispering something in his ear. The young man sighed and nodded, as he said, "Doctor, it appears to me that we are on our own for some time now." The doctor asked, "What do you mean?" Leo stood up and looked at Kyle as he said, "Get Jock and the rest to cordon the corridor leading here, and then get the people from the backstage to move over, and close the doors. Take the weapons from the fallen and let us guard here." Kyle nodded, and Leo turned around to look at the guests, who were whispering to each other. He could see that they were scared, but now was not the time to cower, and so he said, "Ladies and Gentlemen. I am Leo Cardinal, and I am the trustee of the Primus School board. I would like to have your attention, because what I am about to say might be even more shocking than what happened just now." seaʀᴄh thё ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. There were about a hundred people inside the auditorium, and the rich and privileged were so scared that instead of running, they were frozen in place which was a good thing in the given circumstances. The young man took a prolonged gaze at the faces of the people and said, "The hotel is under attack. We are surrounded by a group of terrorists. We cannot leave the place now, or we will catch fire outside for sure." Someone asked, "How do you know that the hotel is surrounded?" Leo looked at Kyle, who stepped forward and said, "I am the leader of the twelve men squad responsible for President Cardinal's safety. We are all former special forces members, and I assure you that we are not lying. The network connection is still on, and you can go to your social media, I am sure there must be a buzz there." The people quickly took out their phones and began to check the internet and sure enough the truth set a buzz. Just when they were thinking about what was going on, Leo wobbled on his feet. The doctor supported him quickly, and had him sit on the chair. He began to look around asking, "Do we have a first-aid kit?" Snow asked, "Doctor, what is going on? Is he okay?" She quickly handed Lily to Anastasia and knelt beside Leo while she patted his face gently and said, "Keep your eyes open." Leo looked at her and nodded, he had been bleeding all this time. Jock brought over all the people from the backstage, and the children rushed to their parents. Kyle said, "Axel, attend to the boss, the rest of you, procure the weapons and ammunition and move, don't touch the bodies." A young man quickly rushed over to Leo's side, and said, "Young Miss, let me." Snow moved a distance, and Axel examined the wound as he said, "Sir, it's gonna hurt." Leo nodded to him, and then the young man took out a knife, cut through the sleeve, and then he grabbed the red tie from the side, and tied it above the wound with great pressure causing Leo to grunt. Axel looked up and said, "Joel, pass me that whiskey bottle." The doctor looked at the quick operation and asked, "Sir, what are you doing?" He was baffled, and Axel said, "I was a field medic for the Stag Nation SS. Don't worry, I know what I am doing." Joel, a blonde young man dashed over with a bottle of single malt. Axel opened the bottle, poured some of the liquor on the wound, and Leo winced, then everyone saw Axel pouring some liquor on his small knife, and then passing the bottle to Leo as he said, "Chug down some of it, the pain will lessen." Leo took a deep breath and said, "Snow, turn away, don't look at me." Snow watched him drink the liquor with great chugs, and closed her eyes. However, the rest of the people saw Axel making a small cut on the wound, and then digging the tip of the blade inside the wound while Leo's face twisted from the pain before he let out muffled groans, and then finally, while Axel began to twist the knife to get under the bullet, he couldn't help but let out a scream. Leo was not an overpowering strong man, he used his vacant hand to smack Axel, but the doctor quickly grabbed it. The doctor was shocked to find how strong Leo was, even after putting his entire strength he was able to barely hold on to Leo's arm. The doctor groaned, "Hurry, I cannot hold him any longer." Axel grit his teeth and with a lever yank he dislodged the bullet and took it out, before saying, "Done." He and the doctor moved back half a step as Leo groaned and gasped. The pain lessened but it was still there, and he was still going through it. Snow stepped forward and held his hand as she took a deep breath, and saw Joel coming over with a first aid box. Axel went through the content and said, "From those food trolleys get me a couple of sugar sachets." Joel dashed around quickly and got the sugar. Axel tore the sachets and poured the content over the bleeding wound and said, "Powdered sugar will help stop the bleeding." Then he used an antiseptic liquid and doused it over and around the wound before dressing it up cleanly. He said, "Sir, don't move the hand too much, or it might start bleeding. This is just the first-aid." Leo nodded and looked at Kyle as he said softly, "Go out, and clean up anyone that you can see." Kyle revealed a bitter smile and said, "I apologize Sir, but the enemy has assault rifles. We won't be able to deal with them efficiently. We should just guard here." The young man sighed and nodded, as he closed his eyes, and said, "Give me an hour to rest, and then we will see how to handle it." ... You want more chapters?
