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
Porker wanted to do something. However, he remembered those eyes. He had never seen eyes like that his entire life.No normal person would have eyes like that.Porker was hesitant.“You fat *ass, you’re always so maudlin!”Jane was anxious. She watched as Porker looked around him hesitantly.The only person who could do something now was Porker. The leader and the big guy were both badly hurt.“Let us go. I promise I won’t look into what happened tonight. Also, you guys are hurt so badly.
“Porker, come, help me.” After he said that, he called Porker over. The few of them limped away while holding on to each other. After a long while…So much time had passed after the sound of their footsteps were gone. When the wind blew, Jane shivered furiously. With a thud, she leaned on the wall and collapsed to the floor weakly.“Janey, you’re amazing.”She reached out her hand to wipe the cold sweat away from her forehead. She lifted her head, and her eyes met a pair of glistening eyes
“Why were you there?”The two of them supported each other all the way. When they got home, she opened the door and went in.She turned around and glared at the man while waiting for his reply.How had he gotten there at the nick of time?It was as if the man did not notice the changes in her expression. He pointed to the balcony innocently. “Janey goes to work every day, and Sean will stand there to watch Janey’s car leave.“I know the time you get off work, Janey.”What he meant was that
When she heard that, she was worried. “Where? Where does it hurt?”“The places where I got hit.”Of course, those places would hurt. She was just worried about any internal bleeding. However, his back was the only place that got hit in the alleyway. There was a low possibility that there would be internal bleeding. However, she did not dare to be too careless. Plus, she was scared that there would be damage to his bones.“Let me touch you. If anywhere I touch feels especially painful, o
Ray was puzzled. Sean had forbidden him from going to Jane’s house anymore. Also, when his doctor finished the last IV drip for Sean, he looked glum when he came back.Ray felt that Jane must have known something.In the end, when he called Jane, it was as if she had eaten a bomb. She was explicitly and implicitly accusing him of being a ‘playboy’, ‘treating life as a game’ and ‘teaching someone bad things’.Ray felt even more strange when he looked at the call that was already ended. She c
"Your grandfather loved your grandmother like a man possessed."By the time I finished hearing out my grandparents' story, I fell silent. I no longer blamed my grandfather for not knowing his heart, and I no longer blamed Grandma for being uncertain. It was just as Grandma Alora said. It was only because one of the two of them stopped obsessing and took a step back that they ended up living happily ever after. I could not help but wonder. What if Grandma simply refused to turn back at the e
Even then, I found it unbelievable. I ran to my dad's room and immediately asked, "Is Grandpa a pervert? I saw him hugging Grandma's foot just now. Does he have a foot fetish?""Your grandfather is warming your grandmother's feet. Your grandmother's body isn't in its best shape, and her hands and feet are always ice-cold. Your grandfather can't bear to see her like that. Just pretend you didn't see anything, and never mention it to him.""But why?""Because your grandfather will make you writ
My name was Luka Stewart. It was a weird name, right? Like ‘look! A stew.’My grandfather gave me my name. All my many years of experience as a kid told me that my grandfather was not a good guy.All else aside, just look at the name he gave me. He had a perfectly nice name himself, but he had to give me such a weird one.However, every time I protested about it to him, he always said that it was my dad's fault. If Dad had been a girl, that would have been his name instead. See, Grandpa was
On the twentieth day after the surgeryHe saw the person he had his heart set on.“Elior said you were at your wedding on the day I woke up.” He fell quiet again after his initial excitement. It felt as though there was a thorn in his heart. He wanted to pull the thorn out, but it hurt just to touch it.“Is Michael Luther… good to you?”“Yeah, pretty much.”There was pain in his eyes and he hurriedly lowered them, putting on a gracious act.“Congratulations. From now on, you’ll finally be
“Not too long ago, I woke up one morning and realized that I was trapped behind bars again. He had installed metal grilles over all the windows in the room.“In my eyes, those bars were no different from the ones in prison six years ago.“He tried everything to imprison me. He only finally let go when he’s sick and dying.“He said something about getting tired of this game and getting bored of me. I believed him.“He’s dying, so he lets go.“Is that supposed to show how generous and loving
“See? Master White agrees. Move aside and don’t stop me, the boss is in a lot of danger right now!” Dos’ expression was vicious. “I need to stop…”Halfway through his sentence, the three people outside heard some mortifying noises coming from inside the room.They were all experienced in the ways of life, so no matter how slow they might be, they still understood what those noises meant.Dos’ face instantly turned completely red.“Go on, kick the door down. Your boss is in danger,” Alora tea
After the second apple, there was the third... By the time he reached the fifth, he looked at the apple in his hand with a troubled expression. No matter how much he liked fruit, he still could not eat so many at once. Besides, he never liked apples to begin with.“Eat some more, or you won’t have the strength,” she said calmly. He was completely stumped. The strength? The strength for what?The wheels in his brain were still turning as he tried to process her words when the woman by his bed
At the hospital, the ward door opened without a sound. This time, Dos did not report the arrival in advance.When Elior arrived in a hurry, he immediately saw that woman.Before he said anything, Alora pulled him back out into the corridor. The door opened and closed again.The man on the bed lay on his side, fast asleep.No one knew what he was dreaming about, but the deep frown on his face showed that he did not have pleasant dreams.His hand rested on the covers, his wedding ring still a
"Don't worry, this time Sean Stewart won't disturb you again. He never will anymore. "Go and do what you do best, Jane Dunn. Run away!"With those words, Alora turned and left.She did not know what she was mad about. Perhaps she was not mad at all, just a little sorry about the whole state of affairs.It was almost as though she was the one who was not getting her happy ending. In her eyes, one of them had done wrong in the past and was now filled with regret, determined to turn over a n
