Chapter 301 Attacked?
Matthew's car arrived at the Velvet Spoon Bistro.
As soon as he and Donovan got out of the car, a woman holding a dagger rushed towards Matthew, shouting hoarsely, "Matthew, you beast! You humiliated me in Maple Valley, and now I'll take your life, you bastard!"
Melissa, acting like a desperate outlaw, charged straight at Matthew.
Matthew was terrified. This time, only he and Donovan were here. Not even the driver was with them.
Moreover, his car was parked on the other side of the road, making it difficult for people on the street to notice the commotion near the car.
"Melissa, you bitch, you've got some nerve. Lunatic! Slut," Matthew shouted as he hid behind Donovan, "Mr. Blake, call the police, quickly!"
Donovan, who was tall, almost completely shielded Matthew.
Donovan knew this day would come sooner or later. He had intended to talk to Matthew about it today, advising him not to push things too far. Melissa was already at the end of her rope, and if he stepped on her again, the consequences would be dire.
But before he could speak to Matthew, this incident occurred.
Donovan had just dialed 911 when Melissa thrust the knife towards Matthew behind him. However, Matthew dodged the attack, and the knife plunged into Donovan instead.
Blood immediately gushed from Donovan's body. Melissa was kicked away by Donovan, still holding the weapon.
The conflict was so intense that it caught the attention of the passersby. They took timely action. Matthew quickly called the police.
All of this was witnessed by Paisley, who was dining on the second floor.
She was worried about Donovan's injury but soon realized this was a golden opportunity.
She needed to inform Chloe of this news immediately. She thought that if Chloe couldn't forgive Donovan for Amelia, then Donovan's death might make her happy.
If Donovan knew she was happy, he would give up on her, or perhaps Chloe would be heartbroken without expressing it, leading to inner turmoil.
After all, Chloe's mood hadn't been great lately. Last time, Barbara exposed Jacob's affair, which was the last straw for Chloe.
Paisley hoped this incident would also be the last straw for Chloe. Ideally, both Chloe and her unborn babies would die. And if something happened to Chloe, it would have nothing to do with Paisley. In any case, she would be pleased.
As Paisley walked downstairs, she found a waitress and gave the latter Chloe's phone number.
"Tell her that Donovan has been injured and might be in critical condition," Paisley said to the waitress as she hurried downstairs.
By now, a crowd had gathered across the street, and an ambulance had arrived. The waitress, aware of the commotion but not the specifics, quickly informed the victim's family as Paisley instructed.
"Hello, I'm a waitress at the Velvet Spoon Bistro. Mr. Donovan was attacked outside our restaurant, and it seems serious," the waiter said, glancing out the window but unable to figure out what on earth happened. It was just that many people were out there.
Chloe was busy working when she received the call. She was stunned for a moment before speaking, "Attacked?"
"Yes, it seems a woman injured Mr. Blake."
Chloe froze, her body suddenly weak. She was totally dumbfounded, unable to utter a word, and she couldn't hear any surrounding sounds. 'He was attacked with a knife?'
"Are you saying someone attacked him with a knife?" Chloe couldn't believe it. Who would dare to hurt him?
"That's right."
Chloe suddenly couldn't hear or say anything for now.
"Hello, are you listening? Hello, hello, are you there?" Chloe wanted to speak but couldn't utter a word.
The waitress on the other end had no choice but to hang up.
