OMG!!! My Crippled Husband is a Hot, Powerful CEO-Chapter 160 - I put her before you

"What are you doing here?" Don Lucas asked, Alex was enraged to see a gun pointed at Joanna in her unconscious state.

She was tied to a chair, and so was Jack, but Mia sat on the floor with tears in her eyes, as Cole lay unconscious on the bed.

"You have my wife, and that brings me here," Alex said seriously, his gaze dark. Don Lucas was still confused. He heard Alexander King had been out of the city for months, so how could he appear so suddenly?

"Whatever, I would release your wife as soon as he brings out Salvador, even if it’s a robot like he claims," he pointed at Dario.

Don Lucas’s men were all armed, and so were Alex’s men. Only Dario and Salvador’s men had disarmed themselves.

"I don’t care what your beef with Salvador is, but if my wife wakes up to all these guns, I would not allow any of you to leave here alive."

"Hahahha," Don Lucas laughed. "Do you think this is a corporation? Wake up, Mr. Alexander King. I am a mafia Don, and I have the gun pointed at your wife. If I don’t see Salvador, she dies."

Alex had to think fast. With Joanna here, he couldn’t let everyone know he was the one.

She could wake up at any moment. "Alex?" Joanna murmured, Alex was about to rush to her side, but the gun was now pressed against Joanna’s head, making him stop in tracks.

"Another step, and she’s gone."

Alex’s fingers balled, pain surging through his heart, but Jack was also awake, giving Alex hope that Jack would be able to untie himself. All Alex needed was time and a distraction.

"Alex, I swear, I know nothing about this. I just wanted Joan to help dad, but they tricked me. Dad didn’t even need blood," Mia cried from where she sat.

It was clear that Alex might rescue just Joanna and leave her and her father to die.

"Mia?" Joanna asked, her voice faint as the fog began to clear from her mind. Soon she began to see things clearly, realizing a gun was pointed at her head but seeing Alex again, her heart warmed.

"You came." It’s been months since she last saw or heard from her contract husband.

Alex smiled at her. How could he tell her how much he missed her? Joanna was about to stand when she realized her body was restricted with a rope.

Looking around, it was clear to her that she had been abducted, and Alex had come to rescue her.

"Don’t worry. I will get you out of here," Alex assured her, Don Lucas laughed. ƒгeewёbnovel.com

"Alex, how are you going to do that?"

Alex smiled at him. "Don Lucas, your crimes are enough to send you rotting in jail, but trust me, you won’t have the luxury of seeing another day for the fact that you dared to touch my wife. You are as good as dead."

Don Lucas laughed, and so did his men. "Not even Dario is capable of talking big, and you think you have the guts? Open your eyes, Alexander. This isn’t the Kings multinational."

"I know exactly where I am, and I’m giving you a last warning. Let my wife go or not only you and your men. Each of your families would pay for what you have done here today."

He wasn’t going to let this slide. The fact that they took the war to his doorstep and made his wife a scapegoat but a dangerous revelation was made, causing Alex’s eyes to redden instantly.

"Relax, Salvador King, I’m being funded by someone from the King’s family, so do you still think you have the guts?"

Alex’s expression changed dramatically. The only person with the guts was Logan. Yes, the temporary memory loss solution must have worn out by now.

Alex looked around, and when his gaze met with that of Mia, he grimaced.

"How the heck did you get my wife here?"

Fear shone in Mia’s eyes. After having experienced Alex’s ruthlessness firsthand, she knew that her life would not be able to pay.

"Alex, I just wanted her to come donate blood to dad, but I was tricked by them." She pointed at Don Lucas. "He confessed to being the cause of the accident."

"How is dad?" Joanna asked, Don Lucas was getting annoyed. "You don’t ask the questions here."

He grabbed Joanna by the neck, Alex was filled with fury. "Don’t you dare."

"Oh what?" Don Lucas pressed another gun against Joanna’s head in addition to the one his men had pinned at her, Jack had secretly finished untying himself, but from the closeness of the gun on Joanna’s head and for her being tied to a chair, they couldn’t comprehend the risk.

"Let my sister go," they heard from Mia, and before anyone could process her words, she was holding tightly to Don Lucas’s legs, her teeth sinking into his calf.

A scream tore from Don Lucas’s mouth, and he and his men simultaneously pointed the gun at Mia. At the same time, bullets dropped on the floor.

Don Lucas and his men had been shot from multiple angles, sending them unconscious to the floor.

Alex hastened to Joanna’s side and untied her from the chair, but that was when they realized that Mia had also been shot.

Joanna squatted by her side as Alex called for the doctor. "Mia, stay with me," Joanna echoed, her voice teary and her hands shook.

Mia had been shot in the chest and shoulder. "Joan, I’m sorry," she said before losing consciousness. The medical team carried her to another ward, the same time Cole regained consciousness.

Well, He had been conscious for a while but was afraid of making it known.

"Alex, will she be fine?" Joanna asked, Alex pressed her to his chest. "I will make sure they do all that they can to save her."

It was clear to them that the attack was against Salvador, and Mia and Cole were just victims.

However, it was also clear that Mia’s little action caused the destruction they all needed to gun down the assailants.

"Joan, are you alright?" Cole asked from the bed, Joanna walked over to him.

"I should be asking if you are okay."

"I’m sorry for everything," Cole apologized, Joanna stared at him. Being close to death and with Mia still fighting for her life, she couldn’t allow hate to have a place in her heart.

"We all make mistakes, but Mia told me what you did with your life insurance. At least you weren’t completely heartless."

"Mia? How did she know?" Cole was shocked since he had kept that away from Mia and her mother.

Joanna didn’t have an answer to that and did not want to divulge that Mia was not Cole’s daughter. "It doesn’t matter."

A tear slid down Cole’s cheek. "I heard her talking to the doctor. She’s not my biological daughter, and yet, I put her before you."

Before Joanna could utter a word, Alex heard a beeping sound and saw something. "Is that a camera?" He asked, Dario looked in the direction he gazed at and screamed, "No, it’s a bomb."
