May felt this intense pain in her abdomen and another awful pain as she held her stomach trying to put everything back in place, unfortunately for her, the blood kept gushing out.
The man aimed for her heart as someone who was running nudged her out of his range but the bullet still hit her chest area, All she remembered before hitting the floor was calling out to Rex
#####
2 minutes before the shooting
Rex's eyes had moved from Robert handing May over to Zachary the prominent action movie star. He smiled.
Zachary could pass as Rex's brother. Most times when people see him they often ask him if he is a prominent action star.
He knew that was why May thought she had seen him before
They are both built the same way. Tall, broad shoulders, athletic with blonde hair and blue eyes.
The difference was Rex looked more mature and older than Zachary
Robert his childhood friend was doing everything within his power to make May feel at home at the 4 Seasons.
He wanted May to have an unforgettable evening which has always been his M O. Modus Operandi.
He does this with all his very important client making them have a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
His choice to show off to his best friend's wife was this year's Action movie award winner. Zachary.
Rex chuckled. Show off but very thoughtful Robert
His shy wife will be over the moon dancing with Zachary
Less than 24 hours ago his shy wife had proposed Marriage to him just for a month, she pleaded, pending when she could find accommodation and work
Little did May know that her father just made her one of the richest women in the country by bequeathing all his earthly possession to her and by Marrying Rex she just became one of the richest women in the world.
He smiled when he remembered her saying just for a month, till she gets a job and accommodation.
If only she knew who she Married
Truth be told he didn't know she was Mr Luther's daughter when they ran into each out at the lavatory earlier.
He had always prayed to marry for love but all the ladies that he came across wanted something from him.
His money. Even his shy wife wants him so she could be protected from her evil stepmom.
He will choose his wife over all the pretentious ladies any day.
His gazes travelled back to Robert his childhood friend rushing towards the entrance of the 4 Seasons.
A man was cursing the commotion, The uproar was much. He heard the man beside him asking his girlfriend if she recollected the incident in a club they visited in Russia.
When someone was causing so much commotion at the entrance like this only for robbers to take over the club
Immediately his eyes travelled back to May and her surrounding that was when he saw the man reaching to bring out his gun, his gun was pointed at May and Zachary.
Gunshots were fired repeatedly from the club door. Ladies started screaming
At 1st Rex froze and like a wide animal ran towards the dance floor pushing people out of his way till he shoved May out of the line of fire but not without hearing her whisper his name.
There was a Stampede for the exit. Thank God he protected May and the movie star, Unfortunately, the action star was also hit, he covered both of them with his body. As he took most of the hits and kicks as people ran past them towards the exit
Robert saw what transpired as he promptly directed his bodyguard to ran and protect both May and Zachary with their bodies, building a semi-circle fence.
He looked up at his Dj and shouted. Williams call 911
All this action lasted less than 2 minutes
When it all quickly died down it was noticeable to all that two other ladies were lifeless on the floor and one unique thing about the 3 ladies shot was they all had red hair
Rex saw people running helter-skelter he tried to identify the shooter, he pointed him out to a bodyguard as he ran after him.
As the club security ran towards him he pointed the shooter exiting towards the back door
All his attention and prayers he gave to a lifeless May but he prayed for the shooter to be caught and be brought to book.
Paramedics ran towards all the people on the floor
The position of one of the ladies was really bad, The way her head was turned from the rest of her body with no visible blood stain proved someone snapped her neck
3 paramedics ran towards May and Zachary. The young Doctor attending to May got to work as fast as lighting placing a bag valve mask for her to breathe properly, he started looking for her pulse, checking her heartbeat, looking for bullet entry and exit wounds.
One of the other doctors with Zachary joined the doctor checking May. He said Zachary was now stable and can be moved now. He informed them that Zachary was a category 2.
The paramedic used the gurney, they decided to rushed May and the others to the hospital since they felt she still had a fighting chance unlike the other red hair that was going out of the 4 Seasons in a bodybag
Actor Zachary, May and the other redhead girl were been rush to the hospital. May case a triage category 1, a Code Red. Her case was serious while the actor and the other redhead were placed in category 2 the three of them were fighting for their lives.
Rex had not prayed out loud in years but for the 1st time, he looked up and said a prayer. God please don't let her die.
As she was wheeled out of the 4 Seasons, 1 one of the paramedics asked him who he was to the victim
This was the 1st time it hit him he was really married, looking at May lying lifeless he promised himself he was going to care for her and protect her once she gets better
He knew this had her step mum written all over it. He was going to make that wicked woman pay.
That should have been him not Zachary unfortunately because they both looked alike they shot Zachary thinking it was him.
May step mum does not know who she just mess with
He was allowed to ride with May to the hospital but he could not stop holding her hand.
When she was stable in the hospital Rex made 3 calls
1st one to him dad
2nd one to his company lawyer
3rd one to Zetec lawyer
