The unexpected turn of events startled everyone. It was especially shocking for Vivian, who was left dumbfounded.

She looked down to see the bleeding wound on her chest. Her face showed a mixture of shock, astonishment, confusion, fear, and disbelief.

She never expected to get shot. It happened so fast and without any warning.

Evan got angry. Instead of retreating, he kicked a table over. It crashed into several of the assassins.
