Chapter 52
'Get down!" Emily shouted sharply as she yankedDaniel to the ground.
Daniel didn't hesitate, he knew she meant business
He grabbed Emily and rolled on the ground,following her lead.
The next moment, the parked Maybach exploded.
Flames nearly engulfed them.
The massive shockwave left Emily's head spinning
She was briefly unconscious but quickly came to.
She felt a heavy weight on her body andimmediately realized it was Daniel.
"Mr.Smith, Ms. lohnson, are you okay?
York was a pro.
Just as he was about to start the car, he heard thesound of gasoline dripping.
He didn't have time to save the people in the backseat; he could only protect himself by rolling on the ground.
Before the fire reached him, he heard Emilysshout, "Get down," and held onto a glimmer ofhope.
It seemed they had also heard the sound ofleaking fuel.
So, after escaping danger, he ignored the pain fromthe burns on his back and started shouting andsearching.
"York, we're over here.
Emily was relieved to hear York's voice.
York was glad to hear from Emily, but he couldn'thelp but worry when he didn't hear from Daniel.
Following Emily's voice, he quickly found them.
Daniel lay unconscious, pressing heavily on Emily.
showing no signs of movement.
York suppressed his panic and hurriedly helpedDaniel up.
"Ms. Johnson, are you okay?" York asked,concerned about Emily. Emily's head was still spinning from the
shockwave,but she wasn't injured thanks to Daniel
s protection.
He had shielded her, even covering her head withhis hand to prevent injury during the roll.
"I'm fine.Ouickly,lay Mr.Smith down over there.
I need to check him.
Emily shook her head, her gaze complex as shelooked at the unconscious Daniel.
York carefully carried Daniel away from the fireand laid him down on the roadside.
Fortunately, Emily was wearing a T-shirt and longpants today, with her silver needles in her pocket.
She always carried them with her.
Now they could be put to use.
Emily first checked Daniel's pulse.
As she did, her expression grew darker
Poisoned again?
How could this be? Emily had warned Daniel about the dangeraround him.
He should have taken care of it.
But now there was a new poison
Maybe because of the medicinal bath, it hadn't
affected him.
But the explosion had injured him, causing thepoison to spread uncontrollably.
Emily took out her silver needles.
"Ms. Johnson!
York was surprised to see her medical skills andthe silver needles she carried.
His expression changed.
For a moment, he wondered if Emily hadorchestrated all this.
The explosion!
The silver needles she carried.
Then she could gain Daniel's trust.
Emily spoke urgently to York, "Daniel's body hasbeen poisoned again. The explosion damaged hisbody's defense mechanism.I need to stop the
poison from spreading. Please trust me and don't
stop me."
York hesitated.
More and more people were gathering around
Such a big fire on the roadside had caused a trafficlam.
Pedestrians couldn't help but watch
Many had already taken out their phones to recordthe event.
"What's going on? That's a luxury car. How did itcatch fire? Can the people inside survive?"
"Look, are those the people rescued from the car?
Someone spotted Emily and Daniel.
Emily's face was smudged, making herunrecognizable.
But Daniels handsome face was clear in thecamera.
"That face is perfect. He must be the car owner. Ihope he's okay!"
Most people were kind-hearted and hoped for thebest.
Seeing such a face, they couldn't help but pray forhis safety.
Some had already posted the video online, and itwas quickly gaining attention.
Emily had no time to worry about this. She wasanxious and spoke urgently again,"York,mstarting!"
York's stern face showed the coldness of someonewho had seen blood.
Being Daniel's driver and personal assistant, hewas likely also a bodyguard.
Such a person must be very skilled
Emily might not be able to take him on.
So she spoke again, seeking his approval.
She tightened her grip on the silver needles, readyto act if he didn't agree, to incapacitate him.
York clenched his fists, still hesitating
He couldn't gamble with Daniel's life.
If Daniel were to die, the Smith family would be inturmoil, affecting many companies and employees
But Daniel had a sharp eye.
He admired Emily, so she shouldn't be a badperson.
Just as York made up his mind to agree, Daniel'seyelashes fluttered, and he struggled to open hisheavy eyelids.
"Do it... I trust you...
Daniel managed to say, then coughed up blood.
Emily's expression changed.
York's hesitation was no longer an issue
She didn't even need to remove his clothes.
The silver needles flew, piercing the special spotson Daniel's body accurately.
York watched Emily's movements with a tense and complex expresslon.
Seeing the silver needles dance in Emily's hands.
York was surprised.
Wasn't Emily just an eighteen-year-old girl? Howdid she have such skills? Her medical expertiseseemed impressive.
"Look, what's that girl doing? Are those silverneedles?"
Someone pointed at Emily's actions, curious
Everyone watched Emily's flying silver needles.

The video that had gone viral was updated with asecond clip.
Does anyone know what this girl is doing withthe silver needles? Can she really save him?
The video quickly gained more views.
Bianca was about to go home and complain toAiden about Ronnie's incident, hoping Aiden'scompany wouldn't employ such a person, whichcould potentially affect the company. She was about to call when a news notificationpopped up on her phone.
She accidentally clicked on it.
Emily's face was smudged, her hair disheveledand her clothes damaged.
Bianca didn't recognize her and didn't believeEmily had any real medical skills.
The flying silver needles indicated a skilled person.
But what shocked her was the face lying on theground.

She quickly dialed James's number.
