My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back - Chapter 561

Chapter 561: I Come To Fucking Kill You, JACK FOSTER!!
“Boss Jack, if he shows up again, just throw him in jail,” Sam said, sensing Jack’s distress over having such a toxic ex-brother-in-law.

“That’s why I must return to New York—to silence him. If I ignore him, he will only increase my headaches!” Jack said, forcing a bitter smile that revealed his stress to Bella and Sam.

“Alright, let’s go…” Sam said, walking ahead. “We will ride in Boss Bella’s car. Bryan is already waiting for us,” he added, pointing to the black sedan parked outside.

The three of them approached the car.

“Oh, I recognize that type of car—a bulletproof one. Right, Bella?” Jack glanced at her.

“You’re correct, Jack. My husband believes a civil war might break out, so he bought me this car…” Bella chuckled, still amused by her thoughts of Tristan’s overprotectiveness.

“Bella, your husband is such a sweetheart. It’s clear he values your safety above all else,” Jack remarked, happy for Bella. He knew Tristan was devoted entirely to her, having changed drastically from what he had heard in the past.

“Thank you, Jack. Tristan is indeed sweet to me.” Bella’s smile widened as she thought of him. “By the way, how do you know about this car?”

“Well, yes, I do own a car like this…” Jack replied proudly.

“Cool! My husband has five cars like this.” Bella casually said, but Jack felt shocked to hear that.

“Damn! Tristan Sinclair really knows how to spend his money. This car costs a lot, and I even thought about it ten times before buying one.” Jack shook his head, feeling defeated.

Before Jack and the others could reach the car, another vehicle suddenly stopped behind theirs. The moment the door opened, they all halted as they recognized a familiar figure stepping out.

“What the—” Sam, standing in front of Bella and Jack, turned to them and asked, “Boss, Jack, I’m not seeing things, right? That man is your brother-in-law, isn’t he? Andreas Corby?”

“Well, it looks like he’s determined to meet you, Jack. He’s chasing you all the way to this country,” Bella playfully remarked, only to add Jack’s annoyance.

Just a few minutes earlier, Jack had mentioned that Andreas was creating chaos at their head office in New York, all to ask to see Jack. And now, he was here?

‘Does this guy really think the distance from New York to Astington is like the distance from Quantum Capital to my house in Little Heaven?’ Bella was left speechless by Andreas’s persistence in wanting to meet Jack.

Jack glanced at Andreas Corby as he walked toward them, stirring an unbearable urge to punch his ex-brother-in-law in the face. He didn’t respond to anyone else. His eyes remained fixed on Andreas.

When they were just a few meters apart, Jack asked, “What are you doing in this country, Andreas? Why spend money on roundtrip airfare?”

Jack was sure that this man was on the verge of bankruptcy; after all, he had made foolish decisions without proper prior assessments. After returning from this country, he had invested all his money in a questionable venture. Now, all his money had gone with the wind. To make things worse, his wife had divorced him and taken their child with her.

Andreas Corby stopped and offered a faint smile at Jack.

“If you come here to ask for money, I won’t give you anything!” Jack pinched his eyebrow, angry to speak to him.

A sneer crept onto Andreas’s lips as he repeated Jack’s question, “Why did I come here?”

No one answers, but they all now look at him, confused.

“I come to fucking kill you, JACK FOSTER!!” Andreas Corby shouted, pulled a pistol with a silencer under his coat, and shot in fast toward Jack’s heart, “Die, you motherfucker!!”

Pop!

The bullet hit Jack’s shoulder and threw him a few steps back, falling to the ground. Shocked Sam and Bella, as a few onlookers near the lobby.

Pop!

Another gunfire could be heard, and instantly, Sam, who was standing near Jack, threw his body to shield him, with his back facing Andreas Corby.

“Boss—” A mouth full of fresh blood burst out from Sam’s mouth when a sharp bullet fiercely penetrated his skull.

“Fuck you, Samuel Brown! Go away! I need to kill that bastard Jack Fucking Foster…” Andreas Corby roared while shooting Sam’s feet.

Unable to avoid the fire, Sam’s massive body falls, with his face hitting the ground.

Jack Foster, already lying on the ground, tried to move but couldn’t. His shoulder felt in pain, and somehow, he couldn’t move his leg as Sam’s massive body was over half of his feet.

“Run, Bella…run…” Jack said, staring in horror at Bella, who froze in her spot and looked in their direction. He could see the shock in her eyes; it made him feel like he wanted to fight back to make Andreas Corby pay for his actions, but he couldn’t.

Bella tried to move, but her legs felt like a huge rock. Everything happened so fast. In a matter of seconds, three bullets had injured her friends. Her eyes were horrified to see Andreas Corby, who was now pointing his gun at her.

“Hello, Arabella Donovan. You are also one of my targets. Because of you, my life is now like hell! Now, go follow your friend to hell.”

Pop!

Bella was too shocked by what happened. She tries to run to the car, but she still can’t. She even lost her ability to scream, calling Bryan.

When she thought the bullet would hit her head, she felt her body push away to the side and fell to the ground. The impact of her back on the concrete floor felt unbearable, but what surprised her was that someone was above her.

She quickly opened her eyes and was shocked to see Bryan on top of her, looking at her with a calm yet frightening gaze.

Her body was entirely under Bryan, who shielded her with his massive body like he was in a plank position. But something does not feel right.

Why didn’t she feel the pain of being shot?

Did Andreas Corby miss…?

“Ma’am, I’m sorry…” Bryan whispered. “I’m too late to know what happens outside. I can’t hear anything. Please, please, don’t move. Until back up comes…”

A mouth full of blood splattered from his mouth, almost hitting Bella’s face.
