“Hunter!” Emily broke away from the man and rushed toward Hunter. They were only a short distance from each other. In a blink of an eye, his towering body stood before her. Hunter only saw the woman when he closed the distance between them.
‘Thank God! She’s fine! She’s okay!’
Hunter pulled her into his embrace, and at the same time, he felled the man behind him with a backhand punch.
“Let’s go.” He took Emily’s hand and led her into the woods.
His men would be there in half an hour! He did not know how long it had been since he entered the island. Even though Paradise Island was evil, they would honor their word. They had agreed on half an hour, so Liam and his men would reach them then.
He only needed another half an hour, and then they would be safe. For the next few days, at least. Those men from Paradise Island would not be able to harass Emily again.
Emily did not know what had happened outside of the island. She could only follow Hunter as they dashed into the forest. The island was undeveloped, and it was covered with weeds and forests. Once they entered the woods, they would disappear from view.
The men outside still searched for them. “Find them quickly!”
“What about the woman inside?” another man asked.
“If we can’t find Hunter, then you will have to do the live broadcast with her!” The leader of the group shouted in annoyance.
“We’ll find him. We’ll find him…”
“Go, find him!”
“Yes!”
The sound of the commotion gradually got further away from them. Emily did not know where Hunter wanted to take her. However, she knew that his body temperature had increased, and his steps were chaotic.
The voices behind them finally disappeared completely, but he held onto her hand and continued to move forward. A few moments later, Hunter suddenly stumbled and fell onto the ground.
“Hunter…” Emily was also dragged off-balance and fell hard on the ground.
However, Hunter managed to twist his body around to let Emily land on his body while his back hit the ground. Her soft body fell into his embrace, and it caused the muscles in his body to tense up. He held onto her tightly and did not let go.
“Eldest Young Master Jackson…”
He suddenly turned around and pinned her down. The drug had almost taken over his consciousness completely. Even he could not control such a potent drug.
His breathing was erratic, but the most terrifying thing was that his eyes were bloodshot.
The drug was too potent, and he could no longer control it! He could not predict what he would do next!
Hunter suddenly got off her and pushed her away. “Go!”
“Eldest Yung Master Jackson…”
“Go! Find a place to hide. They will rescue you soon.”
He sat on the ground. His hand gripped the weeds by his side. His eyes were bloodshot, and his face was almost purple!
His voice was hoarse like the tires that screeched on the sand. “Go! Quickly!”
“Mu…”
“Go! Quickly!” Hunter snarled.
Emily was frightened by his wild beastly voice and fell onto the ground. She picked herself up and stared at him. His eyes had no hint of their original color! He was like a caged beast, which was on the verge of madness!
She did not know how much drugs he was given, but she knew what the drug would make him do. She did not dare to imagine what would happen if she continued to stay behind. Eldest Young Master Jackson was about to lose control completely.
She bit her lower lip; she turned around and wanted to run. However, as she turned, she froze in her tracks. It was as if her legs had weighed a tonne, and she could not lift them at all. What would happen to him if she were to leave? Would he get hurt? Would he…
“Argh!” Before she could turn to look, Hunter grabbed her by the waist and hoisted her into the air.
She could not react at all as he slammed her onto the ground. The next moment, he climbed onto her. With a rip, he tore half her clothes off. His eyes were blood-red, and his face was no longer its normal color. His breath felt like fire on Emily, and it caused her to quiver.
“Hunter… Argh! Don’t do this! Wait… Argh!”
He was utterly out of control! As a result of Emily’s struggle, he slammed her onto the ground again. There was a loud thud, but she did not know what hit her. She felt dizzy and had almost blacked out.
Hunter ripped the remaining clothes off her. The man climbed onto her from behind, and without warning, the pain came…
When Liam and his men arrived, the two figures behind the bushes here still entangled together. Liam dared not approach, nor did he have the heart to do that.
No one knew the dosage of the drug that those people had given Eldest Young Master Jackson. Before Peter arrived, no one had dared to stop them so rashly.
The young madam’s screams were unbearable. Liam wanted to rush toward her several times, but he held himself back. He waved his hands, and his men spread out to guard them against all sides.
Peter had arrived at about one in the morning with two nurses.
When they got there, Emily was unconscious, but Hunter was still on top of her like a ferocious beast. Peter did not dare to watch any longer, so he hurriedly gave Hunter a shot of sedatives to stop the savage torture.
The nurse covered Emily with a blanket. Then they put both of them on stretchers and took them away. The group left the island in a hurry.
The night remained profound…
…
“Curse them! They gave Eldest Young Master Jackson ten times the dosage! They almost killed him!”
Liam slammed his fist on the table as the blood test results came back. He was so angry that he wanted to destroy the whole of Paradise Island.
No wonder Young Madam was tortured in such a severe manner!
He should have pulled Eldest Young Master Jackson back then. However, at the time, he had acted like a wild beast. If he was abruptly pulled away, Liam was afraid that something might happen to Eldest Young Master Jackson.
Even though he pitied Emily, Liam’s first priority would always be Eldest Young Master Jackson. Everyone would have some element of bias. He would not let anything happen to Eldest Young Master Jackson.
As soon as he saw Peter came out of the room, he asked, “How is he?”
“He’s fine. Most of the drug has dissipated, and the remaining is being suppressed.”
“Then…” Liam stared at Peter and hesitated before he asked, “What about the young madam?”
“Her condition is not so good. Her injuries are… quite severe.”
As it was not convenient for Peter to perform the inspection, he had asked a female doctor to care for Emily. He did enquire about the situation beforehand. In short, it was worse than what he had initially thought.
It was five in the morning when Hunter regained consciousness. His first words were, “Where is she?”
Peter and Liam glanced at each other. Liam dared not say anything, but Peter said solemnly, “She’s still asleep.”
Hunter pulled the needle that was attached to his hand. Peter knew that he would not be able to persuade him, so he followed behind him.
As they walked, Peter explained, “Eldest Young Master, Young Madam’s injuries are quite severe. Even though her life is no longer in danger, I’m afraid…”
Hunter stopped abruptly. “Afraid of what?”
Peter hesitated for a moment before he said, “I’m afraid that the trauma will remain in her heart. She might have issues with intimacy in the future.”
