Life and Death"""Ah!"" Accompanied by Sharon's terrified scream, the Lamborghini was directly hit to the side of the road, and all the airbags in the car deployed. The Lamborghini was completely deformed from the impact.
""Damn it!"" Eric shook his head vigorously, struggling to recover from the intense impact-induced dizziness, then quickly looked towards Sharon.
Because Sharon was on the side that was hit by the truck.
Sharon seemed to have lost consciousness with a bit of blood on her forehead.
""Sharon! Sharon!"" Eric quickly called out several Solitary Wolfman</Chapter>
"Could it be Donald?" Eric mused aloud, his voice barely more than a whisper. Donald was the first name that sprang to his mind, the prime suspect in his mental lineup. Yet, as he pondered further, Eric realized that his list of adversaries had grown in recent times. Royce, for instance, had been nursing a grudge against him for a while struggling to reach for his phone to call 911.
At this moment, Eric noticed that after reversing a distance, the truck suddenly stepped on the gas pedal and once again charged towards Eric's Lamborghini, intending to crash into him.
The glaring headlights of the truck made it almost impossible for Eric to keep his eyes open.
""This was intentional!"" Eric initially thought it was a traffic accident.
But at this moment, Eric immediately judged that this was not a traffic accident at all!
This large truck was sent on a mission! They wanted to take his life!
""Get away, I must get away!"" Eric ignored the pain throughout his body and tried to start the Lamborghini, attempting to avoid the impact.
If he let the truck hit him once or twice more, no matter how lucky he was, he would undoubtedly be dead!
Eric desperately tried to start the car, but discovered that the Lamborghininow. Then there was the man he had faced off with at school earlier in the day, among others. Consequently, he couldn't start anymore.
Eric tried again and again.
Asdefinitively pinpoint who was pulling the truck got closer and closer, Eric still couldn't start it!
This is bad!
A thought flashed through Eric's mind.
The collision occurred once again!
However, Eric was horrified to find that a car had crashed into his Lamborghinistrings from behind.
Looking through the rearview mirror, Eric recognized it was a white SUV!
""It's Wolfman's car!"" Eric immediately recognized Wolfman's white SUV at a glance.
With the screeching sound of tires against the ground, the white SUV accelerated and pushed Eric's car forward.
Just as Eric's Lamborghini was pushed a few meters, the fast-paced truck came crashing again!
""Bang!""
A loud noise echoed.
But this time, the truck didn't crash into Eric's Lamborghini, but into Wolfman's white SUV.
The reason was simple.
Wolfman pushed Eric's car forward, making it the target of the oncoming truck.
The white SUV was crushed and deformed upon impact, soon emitting smoke.
""Wolfman!"" Eric turned to look behind him, shouting anxiously as worry flickered in his eyes.
Eric knew that he was supposed to be a victim of this collision, but Wolfman took it upon himself.
Now with Wolfman's car severely damaged and smoking, Eric had no idea if he was alive or dead.
At this moment, the truck began reversing, clearly preparing for another collision.
And its target was Eric's Lamborghini!
Eric glanced at Sharon in the passenger seat, still unconscious. He wanted to get out of the car and pull her out.
The consequences would be unimaginable if the truck hits again!
However, Eric tried multiple times and realized the door was jammed shut and couldn't be opened.
""Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"" Eric angrily yelled.
scenes. Just then, Eric heard a loud noise from behind.
Looking through the rearview mirror, Eric saw the windshield of the white SUV shatter, and Wolfman jumped out from inside.
As for the truck, it finished reversing and pressed the accelerator, heading towards them once again.
Wolfman confronted the truck head-on, then took out a small knife.
In the next moment, Wolfman charged straight at the truck.
""Wolfman, spare the life of the truck's owner! He might give us some leads!"" Eric shouted at Wolfman.
When Wolfman reached the front of the truck, he leaped onto it and shattered the side windshield, climbing into the truck.
Then, accompanied by screeching brakes, the truck finally came to a stop beside Eric's Lamborghini.
Clearly, Wolfman had gained control of the truck's owner.
The door of the truck's cabin was opened, and Wolfman directly lifted the truck's owner out and walked towards Eric.
Seeing this scene, Eric finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Sweat coveredthe wailing sirens of an ambulance sliced through his thoughts. Sharon, having received prompt medical attention, was regaining consciousness. "Sharon!" Eric's forehead, and the recent terrifying experience had indeed startled him.
""Sharon! Sharon!"" Eric called out a few times, then checked her breathing, which was still present.
Without hesitation, Eric quickly dialed emergency and police numbers.
After Wolfman approached Eric's car, he reached out and forcefully pulled off the deformed car door, letting it fall to the ground.
""Sir, are you okay?"" Wolfman looked down at Eric in the car.
""I'm fine."" Eric wiped the sweat from his forehead and climbed out of the car.
As for the soreness in his body, Eric had no time to dwell on it.
Wolfman's gaze was filled with determination and concern as he surveyed the chaotic scene.
There is also some fresh blood on his forehead, probably from when the truck hit Wolfman's car earlier. Wolfman is also injured.
Eric knew that Wolfman was injured on his behalf.
If Wolfman hadn't pushed his own car away just now, if the truck had hit Eric's car again, Eric would have been seriously injured, if not dead!
""No need to worry, this minor injury means nothing to me,"" Wolfman calmly replied.
Upon hearing this, Eric barely let out a sigh of relief.
""Oh, by the way, Wolfman, do you know first aid? My friend passed out in the car,"" Eric anxiously said.
""I know some battlefield first aid. voice wasI'll go take a look. You can take care of this person for now,"" said Wolfman as he handed a small knife to Eric and entrusted the truck driver to him.
Wolfman had already tied the truck driver's hands behind his back.
Eric took the knife and held it against the truck driver's neck. This truck driver had just almost taken Eric's life, so Eric was naturally furious!
At this moment, the truck driver's face turned pale, clearly filled with fear.
""Speak! Who sent you? Who ordered you to do this?"" Eric stared at the truck driver, his eyes emanating a chilling aura.
At the same time, Eric increased the pressure in his hand gripping the dagger, causing blood to trickle from the truck driver's neck.
""No... no one sent me! No one ordered me!"" the truck driver gritted his teeth.
""We are strangers. Do you think I'll believe you when you tell me no one ordered you?"" Eric squinted his eyes and continued questioning.
Eric had asked Wolfman not to kill this driver just now because he knew it was definitely a planned murder attempt!
And this driver was just a pawn. Eric wanted to use this pawn to uncover the mastermind behind it all.
""Whether you believe it or not, I really wasn't ordered by anyone! It was just a normal traffic accident!"" the truck driver insisted.
""Traffic accident? Do you know that this is attempted murder? The maximum penalty can be death!"" Eric narrowed his eyes and said.
""Do whatever you want, kill or torture me! I really wasn't ordered by anyone!"" the truck driver revealed a grim smile.
""Bastard!"" Eric angrily punched the truck driver's face.
Eric knew that the truck driver was probably paid off enough to prevent him from revealing the mastermind behind this.
Since the truck driver's hands were tied behind his back, when Eric's punch landed, the truck driver lost his balance and fell to the ground.
""You piece of trash!"" Angry, Eric cursed while ruthlessly kicking the truck driver with his feet.
At that moment, Wolfman approached.
""Your friend just fainted temporarily. Although there are some superficial injuries, her life is not in danger,"" Wolfman said.
Upon hearing Wolfman's words, Eric finally let out a sigh of relief.
It was evident that the truck driver had come after him.
Sharon was obviously implicated, and if she were to get hurt because of this, Eric would undoubtedly feel guilty for the rest of his life!
""Wolfman, who do you think could be the mastermind behind this?"" Eric turned his head to look at Wolfman.
""That's for you to figure out yourself, it should be someone you have recently offended."" Wolfman calmly replied." as he watched her stir. "
Chapter 085 The Lonely Wolfman"""Donald? Maybe it's him, but not necessarily,"" Eric muttered to himself.
Naturally, Donald was the first person Eric suspected.
But upon further consideration, Eric realized that he had recently made a few other enemies as well. For instance, there was Royce, who had always wanted to take him down, and the man he had confronted at school today, among others.
Therefore, Eric couldn't be certain who was behind the scenes orchestrating it all.
At that moment, an ambulance arrived and Sharon regained consciousness after receiving brief medical attention.
""Sharon!""
Seeing Sharon wake up, Eric finally felt a wave of relief.
""Eric, what happened exactly?"" Sharon, lying on the stretcher, looked puzzled, her innocent ?" Sharon's voice was weak, her expression tuggingone of confusion that tugged at one'sthe heartstrings.
"" "We just hadwere in a car accident, but you're okay. It's just some You've got a few minor injuries that need to be treated at the hospital,""," Eric smiled faintly at Sharon.
Eric didn't wantreassured her, his smile strained. He chose not to tell Sharon aboutmention the attempt ofattempted murder, fearing it would only serve to frighten her or make her worry.
Soon after, Eric helpedfurther. After helping Sharon into the ambulance.
Since there were matters he needed to attend to here, Eric didn't accompany the ambulance to , Eric stayed behind, promising to join her at the hospital. However, he promised Sharon that once he finished dealinghad dealt with things here, he would go see herthe situation at the hospital.
As for Eric'shand. His own injuries, they were just minor cuts and bruises, like- a purple bruise on his elbow or, a scraped knee.
Eric had - nothing he hadn't experienced these minor injuries since he was young, so he didn't mind and didn'tbefore. He saw no need to go to thefor a hospital for treatment.
visit. Soon after the ambulance leftsped off, two police cars arrived.
pulled up. The police officers, upon seeing the wreckagesight of the mangled Lamborghini, knew they couldn't take it lightly.
Several was enough for the officers to understand the gravity of the situation. Uniformed officers in uniform quickly showed up to investigatebegan investigating the scene, while a male and female officer in uniform approached Eric directly.
. "Who reported the incident? What exactly happened here?" The female officer appearedwas young and quite attractive.
""Excuse me, who reported the incident? What exactly happened here?"" the female officer asked.
""Both of you, "I am Eric Phillips, the chairman of the Power Group's New York branch,""," Eric introduced himself.
They were momentarily stunned, but quickly their attitude improved.
Of course, this was the chairman of the Power Group!
The officers' attitudes shifted noticeably upon hearing his introduction. Eric then proceeded to explainrecounted the incident, including howemphasizing the truck driver had intentionally trieddriver's deliberate attempt to run him over.
"" "It seems like this was an attempt of murder,""," the female officer squintedobserved, squinting her eyes and remarked.
"". "No kidding, do we even need to say it?""?" Eric said inresponded, frustration.
""So, Mr. Phillips, do creeping into his voice. "Do you have any personal conflicts with this truck driver?"" the female officer questioned.
"", Mr. Phillips?" she continued. "I don't even know him, so he. He must have been acting on someone else's orders. As for who specifically ordered it, I hope you'll investigate thoroughly,""," Eric said.
""replied. "Rest assured, Mr. Phillips, rest assured, it's our responsibility,""," the officers assured him in unison. The female officer and the male officer beside her said in unison.
Following that, the female officerthen ordered the truck driver to be handcuffed and taken into custody. Eric followed the police cars to the station to give his statement, leaving the rest of the investigation in their capable hands. He hoped they would be able to trace the mastermind through the truck driver of the truck to be handcuffed and taken into police custody.
Eric followed the car and went to the police station to make a statement.
As for the rest of the investigation and interrogation, Eric left it to the police. He hoped that they could uncover the mastermind through the truck driver.
. After coming outleaving the station, Eric hailed a taxi and went to the hospital with Wolfman to visit Sharon. Sharon'sHer wounds had been taken care oftended to, and she only needed to stay in the hospital for observation for a day.
The. Now, his next steptask was to find the real culprit!
After leaving the hospital.
"". "Wolfman, I really have to thank you today. If it weren't for you, it really could have been worse,""," Eric said earnestly, looking at Wolfman.
Although Wolfman was usually cold, Eric found him to be the most reliable in crucial moments!
Especially today, Wolfman used his car to protect Eric from the collision, even risking his own life.
This touched and moved Eric.
"" "SirMaster, I was ordered to protect you, it's. It's what I should do,. There's no need for thanks,""," Wolfman saidreplied calmly.
"" "Well then, Wolfman, let me treat you to a drink as a token of my gratitude, how about that?""?" Eric smiled.
Eric didn't know how to thanksuggested. "Drink?" Wolfman. Judging from Wolfman's appearance, he probably wasn't very interested in money, and his grandfather must have given him enough.
After thinking about it, Eric decided to invite him for a drink.
""Drink?"" Wolfman was seemed taken aback.
""What's wrong? "Is there a problem?""?" Eric lookedasked, looking at Wolfman.
"" "Drinking can easily lead to problems. I can't even remember the last time I had a drink. I'm sorry, mastersir, I can't accept your invitation,""," Wolfman said calmly.
declined. Looking at Wolfman, Eric suddenly felt a twingepang of heartache.
Just like thesympathy. Like his codename 'Wolfman', hesuggested, Wolfman was likeakin to a lone wolf. Eric could imagine that Wolfman must be very lonely.
"""Wolfman, are you... are you lonely?"" Eric couldn't help but ask this question.
?" Eric asked, unable to suppress his curiosity. Wolfman looked up and gazed at the sky, """The strong are destined to be lonely. I have long been accustomed to loneliness.""
""." "Alright, come with me for a drink. From today onwards, you won't be lonely anymore. If you don't mind, I'll be your friend,""," Eric saidoffered, grabbing Wolfman's arm.
"" "SirMaster, thank you for your kindness, but I can't accept your invitation,""," Wolfman calmly refused.
"" once again. "Fine! If you won't go, I'll go. If you're supposed to protect me, you should at least come with me, right?""
After saying that,?" Eric waved and stoppedretorted, hailing a taxi.
Though Wolfman didn't want to go for a drink with him, Eric had a way to make him come along.
After opening the taxi door.
"" "Get in, our cars are all damaged. If you don't get in the car and follow me, you may not be able to arrive in time if there's any danger,""," Eric said with a smile.
Wolfman thoughtconsidered for a moment before reluctantly agreeing.
InsideMeanwhile, in Donald's villa.
, Donald openedwas savoring a bottle of long-awaited vintage wine and savored it while embracing, a beautiful woman in his arms. His mood was very good.
Because tonight was the night when he and his manager intended to carry out their plan.
""buoyant. "Eric, you won't survive tonight! Haha!""!" Donald laughed out loud and then quickly finished the , finishing his drink in his cup.. The plan his manager had concocted was flawless. The thought of his nemesis, Eric, being eliminated filled him with satisfaction.
Donald questioned himself. The plan the manager had told him about was undoubtedly a flawless and beautiful plan.
Thinking that Eric, his thorn in the side, would soon be gone, he felt great.
Just thenAt that very moment, the door was pushedthrust open, and the manager hurriedly rushedburst into the room in.

In a fit of rage, Donald's hand connected with the manager's face."Mr. Hall, I... I'm blameless. I've always been the one orchestrating these operations, and when have I ever failed you? The people I recruited this time were just as reliable!" The manager defended himself, his hand covering the stinging imprint on his face."Forget it, the man's been apprehended, what more can we do?" Donald resigned himself, sinking back into the plush sofa.Donald had been certain that this time, Eric's demise was guaranteed, but his grand vision had once again been shattered.With a sigh, Donald closed his eyes and asked in a weak voice, "Is the driver we caught trustworthy? Did we provide him with funds for relocation? I hope he won't betray us.""Mr. Hall, you have my assurance, he is utterly reliable. He will shoulder all the blame and won't reveal any names," the manager asserted with conviction."I refuse to believe that Eric is this fortunate, always managing to slip through our fingers.

The manager, still shaken, agreed before hastily exiting the room.
