“Don’t you hate him?”Jane said bitterly, “That’s why I tried everything to escape.” She told him that half-heartedly.She knew that the old master was testing her.She did not dare to relax while facing that sly old fox.“Three years ago, you spent so much energy and time to escape to a safe place where you could be away from him.“Jane, another chance is being presented to you now.“If you take this box on the table, leave this city, and disappear in front of the public eye… You’ll be co
It was impossible to call a cab around the Stewart Old Manor.She would have to walk along the path to the fork of the road where cars passed.Jane dragged her exhausted body and walked forward slowly. Old Master Stewart did not even want to give her the courtesy of walking her out. Someone credible and honorable would have done it.Old Master Stewart just left her alone. He did not even bother to ask someone to drive her home.Jane walked out of Stewart Old Manor and followed that private p
He exaggerated each word.Jane did not say anything. However, Uno refused to let this conversation end.“Miss Dunn, I want to ask you one last question. Do you ever regret what you did to Miss Rosaline? Have you ever repented in front of Miss Rosaline’s grave?”Jane turned her head suddenly and looked at the back of the head of the driver. “Uno,” she said irrelevantly. “You’re pitiful.”“Shut up!”It was as if he was infuriated. Uno yelled, “You’re the pitiful one. You did so many bad thi
“Do you guys know me?”Jane ignored the sneers and taunts of the thugs and tried to worm out some information from them.“You’re the Miss High and Mighty from Dunn Group. You’re rich. How can we not know you?” The leader was fiddling with his baseball bat as if he was the coolest person in the world. “How much money did the person who hired you gave you guys? I’ll give you guys double.”“I don’t care about your money.”Jane realized that these people would not be willing to give in. The on
So, who?In that urgent moment, Jane wracked her brain. Her train of thoughts was everywhere.She grabbed the rock on the ground and threw it toward the thugs. She ignored the pain from her legs. Then, she stumbled and staggered to the entrance of the alleyway.“You undiscriminating b*tch!”Jane felt a pang of pain spread across her head after this curse. She yelled when someone pulled her waist-length hair from behind.“We were too gentle with you.“How dare you hurt us first, you b*tch.”
In the end, Porker’s bat did not land on Jane.However, it landed on a thick and broad back.Porker’s hands were trembling. The leader of the thugs looked at the person who appeared out of thin air. Just now, he was pushed to the wall by a force. He did not think about how the other person pushed him. Instead, he just looked at the person who had appeared all of a sudden in shock.“W-W-Who are you?”Where did this person come from?He was still wondering when suddenly, he realized that he h
The leader grinned and said, “Do you think I’m stupid?“You don’t know him?“Who are you lying?”If he did not know her, why did he call her by her nickname so intimately?“Are you going to tell me?” The leader called upon the muscular man. “Never mind. Ignore this man. We’ll never come back after we leave S City tonight anyway.“Big guy, hurry up. Break her arm now.”The big guy was really savage. He kicked Sean away. “This is none of your business. F*ck off.”“No, I won’t let you people
Jane felt moisture on her face. It was the sweat dripping from the forehead of this man.She felt a lump in her throat, and she pushed him with all her might. The person in front of her staggered backward. “Janey, don’t…”“It’s fine.” She reached out her arm to grab the arm of the person who was about to run up to her again. The muscular guy saw her and smiled malevolently.“I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to hit you, but you’re such a good girl. Be still.”From the corner of her eye, she saw the bat that Porker had dropped on the floor earlier. She crouched down and picked it up. She swung it all over the place blindly.She did not have any experience in fighting. She did not have any skills. She did not know whether she was hitting anyone or not. However, at this moment, she wanted so badly to survive and wanted so badly to fight back.“Get lost!“Go away!“Don’t come over!“I told you all to get lost! Do you hear me?”She wildly swung the baseball bat aimlessly.She
