My Killing President
Chapter 708 Unhand

Renee An stared at Ralphy Xia. The moment the knife tip was burrowed inside his body, her pupils dilated and her mind went blank.

She didn't know what she should do.

As if all the strength had left her body.

Ralphy Xia looked at the reporter and he wanted to chase after him, despite the pain. However, now that the man had gotten what he wanted, he simply hurled the handbag on Ralphy Xia. When Renee An saw that, she immediately blocked in front of Ralphy Xia to defend him. The handbag struck Renee An's head.

"Renee..." Ralphy Xia called out in distress. But the woman had fallen to the floor.

When the reporters saw that both of them fell, he wasted no time and grabbed the handbag and ran away.

"The ring..." Renee An muttered. Blood was gushing out from her forehead.

Their wedding ring was in the bag.

"Let him go!" Ralphy Xia said. The man knew that their safety was most important. It didn't matter how much money they lost, he must prioritize their safety.

When Renee An looked at Ralphy Xia, she sank into a sudden realization, "Are you okay!?" The woman pushed herself up right away.

Ralphy Xia tried his best to ignore the pain on his abdomen. His face was pale but he shook his head, "I am fine!"

Renee An lowered her gaze and looked at the knife wound. The man's shirt was completely drenched in blood. When she touched his shirt, she realized how much blood he had lost. "You..."

Renee An panicked and she didn't know what to do at all.

"Ralphy Xia, don't scare me... Ralphy..." Renee An sat on the floor and Ralphy Xia fell on her. The man's blood started to flow on the street. Colors left his face and he was frighteningly pale. Ralphy Xia looked at her. At that moment, he didn't know why but he simply missed the way she called him Ralphy.

"Your forehead is bleeding..." Ralphy Xia looked at her.

When Renee An felt his touch on her face, she broke out in tears.

"I'm fine, I am fine..." She repeated it over and over again and shook her head.

When she saw that there wasn't anyone around, she recalled something all of a sudden, "The emergency! Phone... Where is your phone?!" She wanted to search his body. "Ralphy Xia, do not die! You haven't repay your debt! I will not allow you to die..." Renee An sobbed.

However, Ralphy Xia's eyes closed slowly...

Renee An was completely horrified. There was no one around at all. She looked at Ralphy Xia and her tears just couldn't stop flowing...

In the hospital.

When Waynie Xu and Teneria Xia was notified, they rushed over right away.

What had gotten to the family this year? Or who had they offended? Why were they getting admitted and injured all the time? First it was Annabelle Xia, now her brother... Waynie Xu felt that her heart was getting weaker already.

Right after Annabelle Xia got out of trouble, something happened to Ralphy Xia again!

"Doctor, how is my son?" Waynie Xu looked at the doctor and asked in distress.

"The patient suffered a knife wound on the abdomen and he had lost a lot of blood. As for his well-being, we can only know after the surgery!"

Waynie Xu nodded anxiously, "Doctor, please save my son!"

"Don't worry, we will do our best!"

"As for the other patient, she simply suffered a blow on the forehead. We will do a brain scan for her later. You may visit her after that!"

The other patient?

Waynie Xu and Teneria Xia looked at each other. Could that be... Renee?

Annabelle Xia and Alistair Mu rushed to the hospital after learning of the news as well.

Waynie Xu sat on the long bench nearby the hospital corridor and she was in anguish.

"Dad, mom..." Annabelle Xia walked forward.

"Annabelle, you came!"

Annabelle Xia nodded and sat beside Waynie Xu, "How is brother now?"

"The doctor said he had a knife wound on the stomach. We can only know after the surgery!" After saying that, Waynie Xu leaned on Annabelle Xia's shoulder, "Have I done anything wrong? Why would you and Ralphy get into the hospital all the time..." As she said that, she broke into tears.

Annabelle Xia felt disheartened when she saw that. They have made their mother worried too much.

"Mom, don't worry. Brother will definitely be fine!" Annabelle Xia didn't know how she should comfort her and she said rigidly.

Waynie Xu simply dug her face on Annabelle Xia's hug and wept silently.

At that time, Alistair Mu looked at Teneria Xia and asked, "Dad, what happened?"

Teneria Xia was distressed as well, "I don't know either. We rushed over here as soon as we received the call from the hospital!" Alistair Mu walked over and tapped on his shoulder to comfort him, "Let me go check on that!" After saying that, he walked away.

Teneria Xia, Waynie Xu and Annabelle Xia was waiting outside the emergency room. Sometime later, the An husband and wife came.

When they heard of the news, they were in fright. Their daughter was just discharged and she got admitted again. Their marriage was just worrying!

"What happened!?" The moment Sky An reached, he asked angrily.

When Teneria Xia heard that, he raised his head and looked at Sky An, "Renee is fine and you may visit her shortly. Ralphy is injured and he is currently in a surgery!"

The moment Sky An heard that, he was rendered speechless and didn't know what to say.

After all, Ralphy Xia was the one that got severely injured.

The family could only wait silently outside the operation theatre.

That was a distress night for the family.

When Renee An woke up in the middle of the night, she opened her eyes suddenly and sat up right away.

"Ralphy..."

That was the first word she called out.

Claudia Yun was awakened as well. The mother looked at her and said, "Renee, you are up!"

When Renee An saw her mother, she grabbed her hand right away, "Mom, where is Ralphy?" She asked nervously. Her head was bandaged but she wasn't in any kind of complication. She simply looked a little pale and weak. "He... He is in another ward!"

Renee An didn't say anything and got out her bed right away. The woman wanted to get out her ward.

"Renee, you are still injured. Where are you going?" Claudia Yun followed closely behind. The mother was worried sick.

Right after Renee An dashed out, she didn't know which ward Ralphy Xia was in and she searched room by room. When the mother saw that, she said, "He is over there!"

Renee An followed the direction she pointed and ran over right away.

The moment she pushed the door opened, Annabelle Xia and Waynie Xu was inside.

Renee An didn't care about the previous conflict she had with the family and she stared at the man in the bed.

Ralphy Xia was lying in the bed. His face was pale without colors and his eyes were shut.

"Ralphy..." Renee An called out to him gently as she walked slowly towards him.

When Waynie Xu and Annabelle Xia saw how sad Renee An was, they didn't know what to say.

Renee An walked over slowly and sat by his bedside. The woman held his hand and said, "Ralphy Xia, how are you? Open your eyes... Look at me..."

"Why are you so stupid? Why did you take the knife for me? Are you an idiot?"

When the family heard that, they finally knew what happened.

So that was it...

Both Waynie Xu and Annabelle Xia said nothing. The Ralphy Xia they knew would definitely do that.

"Ralphy Xia, wake up, wake up..." Renee An shook Ralphy Xia gently and tears broke out from the corner of her eyes.

When Annabelle Xia watched from the side, she was emotional, "Renee, brother is fine. He simply lost a lot of blood and now he is unconscious!"

When Renee An heard Annabelle Xia, she raised her head. "Really?" The woman's eyes welled up in tears.

Annabelle Xia nodded, "Yeah, don't worry. Brother isn't in any imminent danger!"

After hearing that, Renee An's heart finally rested. She lowered her head and breathed a sigh of relief.

Claudia Yun walked forward and looked at Renee An, "You have a slight concussion. You shouldn't worry so much!"

Renee An raised her gaze and looked at her mother. Her eyes were misty.

"Can I stay here and accompany him today?" Renee An asked. At that moment, all of her enmity was gone.

"But your injury..."

"I am fine. I just want to stay here!" Renee An said determinedly. It was clear that even if they disapprove of her, she would stubbornly stay.

When the mother saw that she was so determined, she wanted to say something. But at that time, Annabelle Xia spoke first, "Just let sister-in-law stay back. Otherwise, she couldn't be restful!" Renee An nodded.

Since Annabelle Xia said that, Claudia Yun had nothing else to say and she nodded.

"Mom, let us wait outside." Annabelle Xia nudged her mother gently.

Waynie Xu looked at her son heavy heartedly. But she understood Annabelle Xia and went out with her.

Claudia Yun glanced over at Renee An as well. Although she was worried, the doctor had affirmed that Renee An was fine. The mother went out as well.

Renee An and Ralphy Xia were the only one left in the ward.

Although she knew that Ralphy Xia's life wasn't in danger, she couldn't help but wept silently.

As she looked at him, her gaze wasn't piercing like before but it turned into a gentleness.

She admitted that she loved the man. She loved the man so much that she lost herself.

She loved him so much that she even lost her discernment.

But right that moment, she caught on. She understood her heart and she understood everything.

The woman looked at Ralphy Xia and broke into a smile, "Ralphy, sorry... And thank you..."

"Thank you..."

Renee An did not sleep that night. She was looking at the man all the time.

As if after the night, she would never see him anymore...

The next day.

Early in the morning, Renee An came out from his room. When she went back to her ward, Annabelle Xia, Waynie Xu and Claudia Yun were there.

The moment they saw them, they stood up right away.

"Sis..." Annabelle Xia called out to her.

Renee An simply looked at Waynie Xu and her mother, "Can I have a private time with Annabelle?"

Claudia Yun and Waynie Xu exchanged a look, "I shall go get breakfast!" Waynie Xu said.

Claudia Yun followed her out as well.

Annabelle Xia and Renee An were left in the room.

When Annabelle Xia heard Renee An calling her Annabelle, she knew that Renee An wasn't angry at her anymore.

"What do you want to talk about?" Annabelle Xia looked at her and asked.

Renee An looked at her and her eyes were misty, "Annabelle, don't you hate me? Or blame me at all?"

Annabelle Xia's eyes were serene and clear. She simply chuckled, "And why would I do that?"

"You should have known that I was the one that spread the news. I have caused the Xia Group to get into the company crisis. I even went to look for Alistair Mu... How can you not hate me?"

Annabelle Xia had pretty much guessed it. She had long suspected that Renee An was related to the recent happenings. However, she didn't blame her one bit.

Probably she was feeling a little guilty inside.

If it wasn't for her, Renee An wouldn't need to experience such pain.

At that time, Annabelle Xia held Renee An's hand, "You have never done anything to harm me directly. Why should I hate you? Moreover, when I was admitted into hospital, didn't you come to visit me? I know you have no intention to hurt me. You simply didn't know what to do!" Renee An was surprised. Her eyes were flickering as she stared at Annabelle Xia. After a long, long while, she muttered, "Sorry... Annabelle, I shouldn't have blamed you!"

When Annabelle Xia heard her apologizing, she knew that Renee An wasn't angry anymore. They had pushed through this hurdle.

Annabelle Xia held her hand and smiled gently, "Sis, you don't have to apologize. I have never blamed you, not even the slightest bit!"

"Annabelle..." Renee An looked at her and didn't know what to say.

Annabelle Xia simply smiled back at her, "We are one family and there is no need for apology. You will always be my sister-in-law!" Annabelle Xia said slowly and sincerely. When Renee An heard that, there was a bitterness that flashed in her eyes.

She smiled, "Annabelle, you are so kind and strong. You will definitely be happy!" Renee An said that from the bottom of her heart.

Annabelle Xia smiled as well, "You will definitely be happy as well. It is simply a little late, but it will come! It definitely will!" "Yeah..." Renee An drew a deep breath and wiped her tears, "I will be happy. I will... Maybe it will take some time, but I have faith..." Annabelle Xia did not understand what she meant. To be exact, she did not give it a deeper thought.

When she heard Renee An saying that, she rested her heart and the woman finally felt relaxed. After their conversation, both of them were able to let go.

At the same day, Renee An was discharged.

"Renee..." Ralphy Xia jerked up from his sleep. His reaction was almost similar to Renee An.

Annabelle Xia, Waynie Xu and Teneria Xia were there. When the family saw him waking up, they were less worried.

"Brother, you finally woke up!"

"Ralphy..." The mother looked at him worriedly, "How are you feeling? Do you feel any discomfort anywhere?"

When Ralphy Xia looked at the ones surrounding his bedside, he asked anxiously, "Mum? Where is Renee...? How is she?" Ralphy Xia asked worriedly.

"She is fine. Just a light brush her head. You don't have to worry!" Waynie Xu said.

"Let me go check on her." After saying that, Ralphy Xia wanted to get down his head.

"Bro, sister-in-law is already discharged!" Right after Ralphy Xia's feet touched the floor, Annabelle Xia said.

"Discharged?"

When Ralphy Xia heard that, his eyebrows furrowed deeply.

Annabelle Xia nodded, "Yeah!"

Ralphy Xia had a conflicted expression. After that, he nodded, "It seemed that she is fine!"

Now that she was discharged, it simply meant she was in a reasonable good health.

The man didn't realize that he was feeling a sense of dejection.

Ralphy Xia sat back down. The man had moved too violently earlier and it made the wound on his stomach to open again. He pressed on his wound and tried his best to hold in the pain.

When Waynie Xu saw that, she said, "Hurry and lie back down. Otherwise your wound will open again!"

Ralphy Xia did not argue and sat back obediently.

At that time, Annabelle Xia was troubled.

After her conversation with Renee An, she felt that the woman had let things go. However, it was unexpected that she discharged herself.

That was just conflicting with her personality.

The woman had spent the night guarding Ralphy Xia. Why would she discharged herself without waiting for Ralphy Xia to wake up?

The more she thought about that, the more it troubled her.

"What actually happened yesterday?" Waynie Xu looked at Ralphy Xia and asked.

The son gave them a simplified summary.

After hearing that, Waynie Xu frowned, "People are just getting more and more ruthless nowadays! Robbery right in the public?!"

Ralphy Xia made no comment. His gorgeous face was completely pale.

"You should have just given them your belongings. How can those things be more important than your own life?" Waynie Xu said. Although she was rebuking her son, her tone was burdened with worry.

At that time, Ralphy Xia recalled how Renee An held onto her bag desperately.

The woman kept begging the man to give it back...

According to Renee An's personality, she wouldn't have done that, endangering herself for her belongings. Was there something very important to her inside?

The man's eyebrows were lowered faintly.

When Waynie Xu saw that Ralphy Xia wasn't arguing back, she was relieved and she stopped nagging him, "All right now, you haven't been eating since yesterday and you must be starving. Hurry and eat something!" The mother said.

Ralphy Xia said nothing. He started eating obediently.

In a sense, Ralphy Xia was an obedient child. It wasn't because of fear but respect. The son didn't want Waynie Xu and Teneria Xia to worry about him.

When Waynie Xu saw that Ralphy Xia was eating properly, she breathed a sigh of relief. The mother looked at Annabelle Xia and said, "Annabelle, you should eat more as well. You hadn't been resting properly last night. Go back and get some rest of the desk. You are pregnant, do not overexert yourself!"

Annabelle Xia nodded in agreement, "Okay, Haoyu will be picking me up later!"

When Ralphy Xia heard that Annabelle Xia hadn't been sleeping for the past night, he tilted his head and looked at her. However, the man simply glanced at her and averted his eyes back and continued eating.

None of them noticed his glance.

Sometime later, Alistair Mu came and brought Annabelle Xia home.

When Annabelle Xia got in the car, she wasn't feeling sleepy at all.

"How was it?"

"Everything is fine!" Annabelle Xia was relieved. Too many things had happened lately and she could finally catch a breath.

Alistair Mu was driving. After a long while, he said, "I think what Dorie said made sense!"

"What?"

"We should have bring you to a temple or something!"

When Annabelle Xia heard that, she broke into a chuckle, "I didn't know you believe in superstition!"

"I don't want to take the risk and I just don't want to see you get admitted anymore!"
