NovelAppChapter 189 Chapter 189 I lifted my head to see a fully armed police officer, someone I vaguely recognized from hanging around Henson.
Nodding blankly, my fingers were pried open, allowing them to pull Geneva from my embrace.
Geneva was desperately looking in one direction, making soft whimpering sounds.
My gaze followed hers, landing on a scene painted in crimson...
The sound of gunfire earlier, and now the sight of police blocking off the area, sent a sharp pang through my heart.
"Galen, Galen!" Something clicked, and I stumbled forward, only to be stopped by the police.

"Keep calm, we need to administer first aid." "Please, don't interfere with the rescue efforts, they're trying to save your dad!" But Geneva struggled fiercely towards Galen Brown, regardless of the police's attempts to calm her.
I walked over and held her tight.
"Geneva, let them help him!" I yelled with all my might, and finally, she ceased her struggling.
Watching Galen Brown being loaded into the ambulance, she turned and clung to me.
"Mellie, my dad, my dad..." Her tears soaked my shoulder.
Swallowing hard, recalling Galen's condition just moments before, I patted her back.
"Let's follow them to the hospital, hurry." Galen had been shot in the chest, losing a lot of blood. I had a bad feeling.
If we didn't go now, there might not even be a chance for last words.
Suddenly, memories of my mom's passing flashed before my eyes, and I dragged Geneva down the stat with me. The police didn't stop us, but instead, helped us into the ambulance.
Galen was spitting blood, his body convulsing.
I closed my eyes, unable to bear the sight.

I took his hand, nodding firmly.
