Chapter 176 However, Nicholas was still tightly gripping onto Gregory’s hand. Even after struggling for a long time, he
could not free himself from Nicholas’s grip.
As Gregory swung Nicholas’ hand, he beseeched, “I want to chase after Miss Tessa, Daddy. May l?”
“No,” Nicholas answered with a dark face and in a cold tone.
The moment Nicholas said that, Gregory lost his temper and whipped his head to glare at his father,
whom he now treated as a dictator. “You’re a meanie, Daddy! You’ll allow me to look at Miss Tessa, but
won’t let me say hi to her!”
It was clear that Nicholas was bullying him by keeping Tessa just tantalizingly out of reach.
Pouting furiously, Gregory watched as Tessa followed the crowd out of the exhibition center.
Meanwhile, after leaving the exhibition center, she looked at the time and found that it was still early
enough where Timothy might not be done with work yet. Thus, she didn’t immediately call him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAt this moment, her surroundings were beautiful and she hadn’t had such a relaxing day in a long while.
Since she was already there, she might as well take the opportunity to stroll around.
While meandering along the path, she was lost in her thoughts once again and forgot to keep track of
where she was going. It was only when she stopped moving that she realized the exhibition center was
no longer in sight.
Her surroundings were unfamiliar and she was obviously lost.
Once Tessarealized that, she pulled up a navigation system on her cell phone and intended to return
along the same way that she came from.
However, she had only managed to make it until halfway when she passed by a park where the adjoining
path was somewhat dimly lit. She turned on the flashlight on her cell phone, but when the area in front of
her became bright, she realized that there were several people blocking her path with a sinister smile.
A somewhat panicked Tessa made to turn and look for another way back, but the moment she did so,
several more people appeared behind her and blocked her escape path as well.
These people were wearing ear studs and tight, ripped jeans while there were heavy chains around their
necks. With sudden clarity, she realized she must have run into a group of gangsters!
One of the gangsters leered at her. “You must be lost, little missy. Why don’t l escort you out?”
Due to the number of people the other party had, she feigned calmness and tried to sidestep them so
that she could evade them and walk away.
However, before Tessa could even leave the circle, the gangsters shrank its size and trapped her in the
middle, after which one of them tutted at her. “What are you afraid of, little missy? It’s not like we’ll eat
you up. We’re simply hoping to escort you out because you’re lost. In return, why don’t you drink with us
as a toast to our chivalry?”
An annoyed Tessa snapped, “Get lost!”
However, they only began to laugh raucously as if they had heard a joke. Then, the fattest gangster

At this moment, she couldn’t help remembering the events of the other day.
Tessa immediately paled and her palms started to break out in sweat. She didn’t want to stay a moment
longer and had to leave at once!
“Leaving? I’m afraid it’s not so easy. I think you should serve us first. Play with us for a while before we’ll
consider allowing you to leave.” A lecherous gaze wandered her body. “What a nice figure you have.”
She coldly warned, “Don’t you dare touch me or I’ll start shouting.”
“Shouting? The whole park is filled with our people. You can shout if you want. The louder you shout, the
more we’ll like it. Isn’t that so, guys?”
As the group closed in on Tessa, her face paled even further. “Help!!!”
“Oh my, you’re really screaming. I’m so scared-Ah!!!” As one of the gangsters reached out toward her, his
hand was blocked by someone else and it had violently jerked backward before he could even touch her
or finish with his words. “Ahhhh!”
