?Chapter 472:


    Sensing someone nearby, Phoebe managed to open her eyes and offer a faint smile.


    Norah retrieved a fresh bottle of Rejuvenation Powder and sprinkled it over the wound upon removing the towel, which helped slow the bleeding.


    “We were performing on stage when chaos erupted, and shots rang out randomly. As we rushed backstage to seek cover, Phoebe was struck by a stray bullet in her stomach, causing substantial bleeding.”


    As Zeke had exined, the bullet had not prated too deeply; a slightly stronger impact could have proved fatal for Phoebe due to excessive bleeding.


    “I’ve managed to stop the bleeding. Once the doctor arrives, they can transport her to the hospital to extract the bullet.”


    The surgical procedure was well within the capabilities of the hospital doctors, and after halting the bleeding, the operation should pose no significant challenge. Norah heldplete confidence in the surgical proficiency of the hospital’s staff.


    By the time they finished giving their statements at the police station, it was already early morning.


    As they prepared to part ways, they reflected on their unfortunate day.


    Joanna expressed, “All I wanted was to unwind and enjoy myself, and then this happens—unbelievable.”


    Susanna grumbled, “Exactly, my bodyguards are all dead; it’s so frustrating and heartbreaking.”

    Alice nonchntly remarked, “I’m used to it.”


    Norah proposed, “Let’s n another outing next time.” She bid farewell to Kaiden and Spencer while Kason remained inside mour Club. The four of them piled into a car.


    Susanna, already feeling drowsy, rubbed her eyes. “Today was quite intense. I’m worried I’ll have nightmarester. Even though Joanna shielded my eyes, I saw more than I should have.”


    Images of gruesome wounds and the haunting expressions of the gangsters yed over and over in her mind. She shuddered, typically too frightened to watch horror movies, let alone unexpectedly witness such a violent scene. Naturally, she would be terrified.


    Upon hearing Susanna’s concerns, Norah gently applied pressure to a few spots on her head for about five minutes before withdrawing her hands.


    “Let’s stop by my ce first to pick up some sleep-inducing incense and a sachet. I’ve helped calm your nerves, so head home, get some rest, and you’ll feel better.”


    “Okay. Thank you.”
