NovelApexChapter 1317:
Felix managed to snatch the knife away at last, but just as he thought it was over, Cynthia lunged forward and
slammed her elbow into his chest, knocking the wind out of him.
The knife slipped from his fingers, spinning through the air in a wild, uncontrolled spin.
Everyone else recoiled in horror, scrambling backward, while Joanna, bruised and battered, was too weak to get
up.
In a terrible twist of fate, the sharp point of the blade plunged into Joanna’s abdomen.
A wet, sickening sound filled Joanna's ears.
Her eyes went wide in shock, her back arching as blood poured out, unstoppable.
Pain unlike anything she'd ever felt shot through her.
“Ahhh!” Joanna's scream ripped through the office, chilling everyone to the core.
“Joanna!” Felix called out, his voice trembling.

At that moment, the wail of police sirens grew louder, and uniformed officers stormed into the room, quickly
moving to arrest Cynthia.
Minutes later, the ambulance pulled up to the building.
Two paramedics burst through the entrance, working alongside the office staff to carefully transfer Joanna onto a
stretcher. Without delay, they wheeled her toward the exit.
Felix started to follow when a police officer's stern voice stopped him cold.

The policeman’s eyes locked onto Felix with practiced authority. “We'll need you down at the station for
questioning. Standard procedure for our investigation.”
“Okay.”
Felix gave a quick nod.
Before leaving, he turned to one of his workers. “Kirby, take care of everything.”
“Understood, Mr. Wells.” Kirby stepped forward as Felix hurried after the officers.
Immediately, the office erupted in anxious whispers.
