Chapter 577 WHAT ABOUT OSCAR?

  ”STOP! STOP! STOP!” Apple pulled Oscar’s reins as hard as she could, causing the horse to lift its front legs high in the air. “Arrgh!”

Unable to balance her own body, Apple ended up falling off Oscar’s back and hitting her head on the hard ground.

The last thing she saw was Oscar lifting his legs up high and this made Apple pray that this horse wouldn’t step on her, because her body was completely immobile at the moment and she couldn’t dodge if this horse tried to break her bones and that was the last thing Apple remembered before she finally lost consciousness.

For a moment, her head hurt terribly, but after a while, her body felt very light and the pain she felt was instantly pushed to the back of her mind.

========================= 

The only sound that could be heard in the room was the agonized screams of the bloodied man, who was curled up in the center of the room, blood soaking the expensive carpet beneath.

There were about twenty-five people in the room, including Gabby and her family and Brian alone, without his fiancée or mother and sister.

However, their attention was not fixed on the man covered in blood, but the man who looked so angry until those around him couldn’t even lift their heads to look him in the eye.

The man screamed again in pain as Jayden stabbed him with a fireplace poker meant for loading firewood in the fireplace.

Misha gave Jayden a new hot fire iron while heating another one for him to use again.

Of the many people there, no one dared to make a sound in the room, not even Hailee stepped up to her son, because she knew that Jayden was inconsolable right now and it wasn’t a good idea to try to talk him out of something when he wasn’t feeling well like now.

Once again, Jayden stabbed the man’s thigh, which made him howl in pain. He wanted to push the hot iron tool away, but his hand got burnt and Jayden had no intention of ending his suffering any soon.

Not yet. It was still not enough…

”Who sent you here?” Jayden asked calmly, but that didn’t mean everything was okay, because it was just the calm before the storm.

After that, the room was filled only with screams of pain from the man, while the women tried to avert their faces so as not to see the gruesome sight and several others actually turned around or chose to hide behind the bodies of their companions.

They couldn’t get out of this room because Jayden wouldn’t allow it. He wanted to show that this was the reward for those who tried to mess with him.

Not long after, Ramon stepped into the room and immediately went over to his son. He only threw a brief glance at the poor man who still insisted on not saying anything, refusing to answer Jayden’s questions.

”A team has been dispatched to look for Apple, go, let me handle this,” said Ramon to his son.

Jayden then stabbed the man in the thigh casually and told his father. “Don’t kill him just yet. I still have something I want to talk to him about.”

”Okay,” replied Ramon calmly. He patted his son on the back as Jayden stepped away.

Jayden’s stride was resolute as he walked past the people who were there, whereupon they immediately cleared the way for him, too afraid to provoke him even in the slightest.

There was no way they wanted to get into trouble with Jayden who was angry like he was right now.

Jayden walked quickly, as if the wound on his leg didn’t mean anything, yes, the wound on his leg was the result of the first shot he got.

It was a stroke of luck, because at that moment, he was standing still as he was making a phone call to get a horse for him, but just at that moment, he made a sudden movement that made the shooter miss their target and hit Jayden in the leg instead.

Realizing that they were in danger, Jayden ordered Oscar to take Apple away and now they must find the woman and the horse in the woods. Luckily, as far as Jayden knew, the forest had no wild animals…

======================= 

Apple didn’t know what had happened or how long she had been asleep on this cold ground, because the first thing she felt was a warm breath on her face and a gentle nudge against her side.

Apple squirmed, but it seemed like it was a very wrong move as the pain was so piercing it immediately made her wince in pain. She curled her body again, her breath catching as she waited for the pain to subside a bit before she could open her eyes and observe her surroundings.

It took Apple a while to regain consciousness and get accustomed to the pain to a limit she could tolerate, then she opened her eyes and breathed slowly.

For a moment, Apple couldn’t see anything. Everything was dark. But then, slowly, the shape of the surrounding trees came into view as well as Oscar.

Yes, it was Jayden’s horse that had been trying to wake her up continuously when she lost consciousness.

Apple groaned softly as she turned her body and now she was lying on her back, gazing up at the star-studded night sky and the beautiful full moon. It was bright enough for Apple to see her surroundings more clearly.

She hoped that there were no wild animals in this forest like wolves, bears, or whatever, because right now she would be soft food for the wild animals considering she couldn’t even move.

Apple then felt a nudge again. Oscar rubbed the side of his face against Apple’s cheek, as if to comfort her and this made her chuckle.. But then, she winced a little as her back hurt.

”I thought you were going to leave me,” Apple said as she raised her hand to wipe Oscar’s face and the horse neighed softly. “I’m quite touched that you’re still here to take care of me.”

Oscar then neighed again and folded his legs, dropping his body on Apple’s side.

”Wow, be careful, you can crush my bones you know,” said Apple, who then moved her body to her left side to get a better look at Oscar, only then did Apple see the reason why Oscar was still there.

It looks like one of the shots hit the horse’s hip and this caused him pain and difficulty moving. Luckily, Oscar’s body was strong enough, otherwise this horse would have been lying defenseless with a bullet lodged in its flank.

”Oh, no…” Apple groaned softly when she saw the wound as well as the dried blood sticking to Oscar’s body. “What do I do…?”

Ignoring the pain in her body, Apple tried to push her body into a sitting position and this took no easy effort, as she could feel that she had broken some of her bones when she fell earlier.

Once she was in a sitting position with much difficulty, Apple then moved closer to Oscar to examine his wound, but as soon as her hand touched his body, the horse neighed loudly and stared at her fiercely again, or maybe this was just her feeling…

”Shut up… I have to see how bad your wound is… otherwise you won’t be able to walk anymore,” Apple said firmly to the horse.

But the animal just snorted at her and turned his head, which made Apple shake her head in disbelief that she had to face this arrogant horse.

”We are in this together, okay?” Apple scolded the horse who kept snorting at her, as if he was annoyed that Apple touched his wound.

Apple had nursed gunshot wounds before, but she had never tended to a gunshot wound for an animal, especially with the risk of this horse kicking her several meters away and breaking her bones.

No, she’d better wait for help to arrive. Apple believed that Jayden would soon come and find her.

However, the problem was; the forest was so vast and Apple had no idea how far Oscar had led her into the forest, so therefore, it was not clear how long it would take Jayden to find her here.

Apple looked around her, wary of anything suspicious there, especially since she wasn’t sure if the forest was safe from wild animals or not.

Apple’s breath caught in her throat when she heard a rustling sound from behind the dense trees.

Instinctively, Apple tried to find something she could use as a weapon, even though she didn’t have much choice in this situation. Her fingers curled around a stone that fit perfectly in her grip.

Meanwhile, the sound was getting closer and closer until Apple held her breath, waiting for what would come her way.

She could only breathe a sigh of relief when she saw a man emerge from behind the bushes and the first thing Apple had in mind was; the guys sent by Jayden have found her.

But then, another thought entered her mind, which warned her to stay alert, because after all they had just been attacked.

”Who are you?” asked Apple in a low voice. The stone in her grip tightened and she could even feel the tension from Oscar. The horse was looking at this man with hostility while baring his teeth threateningly.

”I am the one Jayden Tordoff sent to save you,” the man said. “Now you don’t have to worry and we can get out of here right away.”

”What about Oscar?”

”Who’s Oscar?”
