?Chapter 1748:


    When the lead robber raised his gun and fired at the security guards, Lucas’ breath caught.


    Then came the shot that struck the staff member who had reached for the rm.


    As the robbers were about to leave, they caught sight of Kylee and tried to take her with them.


    Then, the footage showed Kylee pushing Car toward the armed men.


    After that, the moment that jolted Lucas to the core arrived.


    Belinda lunged straight at the gunman!


    It was one thing to hear about it; watching it, seeing every terrifying detail with his own eyes, was something else entirely.


    The heart-stopping scene made Lucas’ pulse surge.


    Even though he already knew Belinda had survived, watching her risk everything so recklessly still made his body go rigid with worry.


    “Alright, that’s enough; let’s stop watching.” Belinda quickly reached out and closed theptop.


    After that, she said nothing. She merely turned to look at Lucas.


    She then reached for his hand, sping it tightly, and spoke gently. “It’s over now. And you knew how it ended—I was the one who came out on top. Look at me; I’m fine now.”


    “Belinda,” Lucas said, his voice low but charged. “Did you really grasp how ruthless those men were? They didn’t even flinch when they pulled the trigger. Do you honestly think they wouldn’t have killed you?”


    After a pause, he continued, “You were lucky this time—only one of them had a gun. But imagine if the other two had hidden pistols under their coats. What then? And again, you were fortunate to knock the weapon from that robber’s hand. But what if you hadn’t seeded? What if he had grabbed it right back and pointed it at you without hesitation?”


    With each question, Lucas’ voice grew louder, his face darkening.


    Feel the thrill at gα?ησν????s﹒??o??


    Now that he had seen the footage, he felt as though a steel band had tightened around his chest.


    The fear that gripped him now was raw.


    Seeing him like this, Belinda felt her heart ache. She leaned in close and wrapped her arms around him.


    “I’m so sorry, Lucas. I didn’t mean to make you worry,” Belinda said, her voice heavy with regret.


    Lucas embraced her tightly, holding her as if he wanted to shield her from the world.


    They let the matter drop, neither wanting to dwell on it further. Belinda did her best to shift his focus elsewhere, and Lucas, for his part, avoided bringing it up again.


    Over the past few days, he had raised the issue countless times, pouring out his concerns in hopes that, should something simr happen again, Belinda would prioritize her safety.
