Married a Secret Billionaire

Chapter 1959

Persephone's mind went blank. Gunshots erupted from the ship, followed by sparks. It reminded her of that night when she failed to leave successfully—the ship had exploded with flames soaring into the sky.

"Seamus!" she yelled.

Persephone rushed toward it and ignored the bodyguard restraining her and assuring her that Seamus would be fine.

She cried uncontrollably.

"Miss, please calm down..."

"Seamus is still on the ship!"

"Miss..."

"Call the police!"

The bodyguard hastily pulled out a phone.

The sounds of the fight drew closer, mixed with chaotic footsteps.

Persephone followed the noise and saw Seamus running toward them. He was covered in blood, his steps losing strength.

The moment he saw Persephone, he hesitated before he turned abruptly and dashed in the opposite direction!

Persephone widened her eyes.

Seamus placed himself as her last line of defense against the assailants, standing between them.

The two men who had caught up were the ones she had seen at the restroom door. They wielded knives, attacking

Seamus with punches and kicks.

Seamus hugged his head tightly, struggling to stand, but was quickly knocked down again.

"Miss, run!" The other bodyguard rushed over, his head bleeding. "Seamus said to ensure your safety!"

Tears blurred Persephone's vision...

After that day, she needed medication to sleep at night.

Every time she closed her eyes, she saw Seamus covered in blood, shouting desperately for her to run.

Every time she closed her eyes, she heard the gunfire and saw bullets piercing the bodies of those two men, the man lying on the ground, convulsing and spitting blood...

Persephone abruptly opened her eyes when she heard that gentle voice. She moved, and the old lady was gently wiping her palms with warm water. The compassion and love in her eyes were like a thick blanket that enveloped her tightly.

"Granny Catherine." Persephone had only recently remembered the name. The shock from that night had caused her to suffer from mild PTSD, making her weak and sleepy, with declining memory.
