Chapter 18
Crack!
At the side of the road, Naomi raised her phone and slammed it brutally onto the blond thug’s head. The phone instantly cracked into two!
“Ow!” The blond thug wailed while clutching his head. “What are you guys still standing there for? Get her!”
The other thugs immediately rushed at Naomi when they heard the orders.
“I‘ll just deal with you all on my own!”
Naomi cracked her neck and wrists. Her eyes were extremely cold. “Unfortunately for you guys, I’m in a bad mood today!
“Hehe, you have tiny limbs, who do you think… ouch!”
A thug approached her condescendingly. Before he could finish his sentence, Naomi kicked his crotch, making him fall to the ground wailing.
Naomi sneered. “I’ve always been accurate in where I hit!”
A few years back, when Naomi was in her rebellious teenage years, she had secretly learnt martial arts. Even Scott did not know that she was the District Champion in Scatter Boxing!
The other thugs were now aggravated. They swarmed her all at once.
However, Naomi was ready. Every move she made was effective and lethal. Soon, the other two were beaten to the ground too!
Naomi clapped her hands. At that moment, it was only the blond thug left! She was just about to turn around when a cold metal tube was pointed at her head.
“Don‘t move!”
Naomi was stunned. How did he have a gun?
“Bloody hell, I thought you were great at fighting! What other moves do you have? I‘ll f*cking rape you!” The blond thug sneered maliciously. He reached out to pull the strap on Naomi’s dress.
Naomi bit her tongue hard. She would rather die than be defiled!
Bang!
A gunshot rang out!
Clink!
A golden bullet shell fell to the ground, letting out a crisp sound.
Naomi’s eyes widened as she looked at the blond thug wailing in pain, clutching his leg on the ground.
It was completely silent after the gunshot.
Naomi looked up and saw a man standing in the dark without any expression. The car headlights shone on his silhouette.
She could not help but raise her hand to block the glaring light. From the gap of her fingers, she saw him, like an angel coming down to earth!
Thud, thud, thud.
He slowly approached her with steady footsteps. His cold, handsome, and arrogant face became clear to her.
The man’s muscular arms were shown off under his suit, exuding intense testosterone.
As someone who only focused on another person’s looks, Naomi had to admit that at that very second, she was dazzled by how good–looking Jack was.
However, the dazzle she felt instantly vanished when she saw the gun in Jack’s hand!
Smoke was still coming out of the black gun barrel, but Naomi could clearly see a symbol of a dragon head on it!
The gun! That symbol!
Instantly, a blur fragment of memory appeared in Naomi‘s mind!
She was on the plane, her mother on the floor of the plane with the cold handgun next to her.
Naomi had seen the gun before!
“It’s fine, you’re safe now.” Jack kept the gun, thinking that Naomi was shocked. He stiffly reached his arms out.
Slap!
Naomi rudely slapped Jack’s hands away. She looked up and glared at him coldly while sneering.
“You deliberately got a group of men to deal with me, then pretended to be the hero rescuing a damsel in distress. Did you enjoy it?”
“What do you mean?” Jack tutted and furrowed his brows.
When Sean who was behind him saw what was happening, he violently stepped on the blond thug‘s leg injury!
“Tell us! Who sent you?!”
The blond thug immediately pleaded in excruciating pain, “I‘ll say, I‘ll say! Miss Andrea Sohn was the one that sent us! She told us to defile this woman! We‘re only following orders, please have mercy!”
“You said that it was him who ordered you to do it!” Naomi swept the blond thug a cold glance.
“No! Miss Sohn told us to say that! She said she wanted to break you two up! If you have any feud, take it up with her! Don’t come for me!” The blond thug said. Finally, everything became clear.
Naomi understood now, it was all Andrea’s doing! Naomi being so miserable that day was all because of her!
At that thought, Naomi glared at Jack curtly,
“Grandpa’s sickness is not your fault.” Jack pursed his lips tightly. He swept the blond thug with a sharp gaze.
“I’ll make sure to straighten things out.” “I sure hope you keep to your promise!” Naomi gestured sarcastically. Her eyes fell upon the gun on Jack’s waist again.
“Where did you get the gun from?” The country of Hostroy forbids guns, only the…
“This is none of your business.” Jack’s gaze sharpened. His tone was cold and harsh. He quickly kept the gun.
“Fine, I get it, it has nothing to do with me.” Naomi harrumphed coldly and frowned.
“Anyway, we‘re done. From today onwards, you and don’t owe each other anything! We’ll part our ways! Remember to head to the city hall to get a divorce tomorrow!” Naomi said coldly and went around Jack, limping ahead.
During the brawl a moment ago, she had ruined her stilettos. At that moment, she could only walk barefooted on the stone path. Every step she took was excruciatingly painful!
“Ah!” In the dark, she accidentally stepped on a pebble! Naomi could no longer stand it and fell directly forward.
“Watch out!”
With a blurry consciousness, Naomi seemed to have fallen into someone’s strong arms.
When she came around, Naomi was awoken by the strong smell of disinfectant.
Sure enough, she opened her eyes and saw a miserable white ceiling. A nurse was wiping her down with a hot towel.
“Miss Green, you‘re up!” Coincidentally, Sean had just entered with an electronic tablet. When he saw Naomi coming around, he let out a sigh of relief.
“What happened?” Naomi looked at Sean confusedly.
“You passed out due to exhaustion. The doctor has checked on you. You‘re not in any danger. Sir specially hired a nurse to look after you. Right, he told me to show you this when you woke up.” Sean said as he passed the tablet to Naomi.
Naomi accepted the tablet and took a look. It was a video.
In the video, Andrea was facing the camera unwillingly, in handcuffs.
“Naomi, I’m sorry for what I have done.”
Although Andrea apologized insincerely through gritted teeth, when Naomi saw how Andrea was taken away by the police, she felt extremely delighted.
Sean was observing Naomi’s expression by the side. He immediately added, “Miss Green, don‘t worry. Once Miss Sohn is out of prison, she will be sent abroad. She will not be able to step foot in Gin City for the rest of her life. She won’t be able to cause you any more trouble.”
“As for the thugs that bullied you…they have been crippled!” When Sean said this, a hint of pity flashed across his face.
Too bad Naomi had passed out and missed what had happened. This was the first time Sean had seen Jack taking things into his own hands. He was ruthless with his actions! 1
“Uh, was he that violent?” Naomi secretly shuddered. Was Andrea not a relative of the Houghs? Jack was much more terrifying than she had imagined.
“Mister Hough has always been just and fair. Do you have any other requests, Miss Green?”
“No, he has done well. I’m pleased.” Naomi gave a fake smile and immediately shook her head.
“Then, rest well. I’ll go get the doctor.” novelbin
“Okay.”
After Sean left, Naomi pretended to be thirsty to get the nurse to leave the room.
Once the door was shut, she immediately took her phone out. As expected, since she did not return the
night before, she was blasted with a series of messages.
First, it was a voice message from her best friend, Susan. Susan said, “Naomi! Your dad brought a group of men to my house to look for you! He said he wanted to take you back home and place you under house arrest! Be careful!”
Right at that moment, her phone vibrated again. Naomi exited the chat thread she had with Susan and noticed it was a series of voice messages from Scott
He said, “Naomi! Your card has been frozen! You divorce that b*stard right now and come home!”
Another message said, “B*tch! I brought you up since you were young! I made you! It‘s time for you to repay the Green family! Come back home tomorrow and get match–made!”
Upon hearing the messages, Naomi furrowed her brows tightly. She quickly checked her bank account. S enough, all her cards had been frozen by Scott!
Her only secret bank card, she had given to Jack the day before! She was penniless at the moment!
“Sigh!” Naomi sighed heavily. She had already told Jack harshly that she wanted a divorce.
However, if she were to divorce Jack, Scott would set her up for a blind date. From Scott‘s tone, Naomi could imagine that her blin
Naomi no longer had any money to hire another person to get a fake marriage with. How was she going to escape now?
Squeak!
Naomi heard the door opening. She quickly kept her phone and looked at the door.
She thought it was the doctor that Sean had gone to call and never would have imagined that it would be instead.
