Chapter 173
Jocelyn looked out the car’s window and her facial expression suddenly changed too. When she was
talking to Skyler earlier, she did not notice that the car was driving further and further away and now they
were at a deserted place with no idea where she was.
All this happened in an instant.
When Skyler shouted, not only did the car not stop, but instead, it drove even faster.
Skyler’s expression immediately became dark. When he walked out of the hospital, he only recognized
his car but did not pay attention to the driver. He thought that the driver was arranged by Greene City
and did not realize that the driver had been switched!
This was his first time making such a low-level mistake. He quickly got up and wanted to grab the man in
the driver’s seat. However, the driver stepped on the pedal and violently rammed into the stone pillar on
the side of the road.
The car rocked violently as Skyler let go of his hand that was gripping the driver’s arm and immediately
turned around to lunge over at Jocelyn to protect her in his arms. At that critical moment, his mind went
blank and his instinct was to protect the woman beside him.
Jocelyn could clearly feel Skyler’s astonishing strength from his embrace. At that moment, her heart was
slightly opened up and had an indescribable feeling that spread from the depths of her heart.
The driver took advantage of this moment to throw open the car door and jump out.
Skyler let go of Jocelyn and was about to chase the driver but was stopped when his hand touched the
car handle.

In this dark and dim place, there were a few lights from torches swaying around. He could clearly see
that the car was surrounded by a group of men holding steel pipes. If Skyler could not react in time, then
he would be the fool since they were blocked in! Jocelyn’s face was as pale as a sheet and she tried her
best to calm her voice down as she held onto Skyler’s arm. “Don’t do anything when you get out of the
car. Ask them what they want since they’re unlikely to cause trouble for no reason!” Skyler looked at the
scene where they were outnumbered and quietly said, “I know! Stay in the car and I’ll go down to ask
what’s going on!”
Jocelyn’s hand that was about to open the car paused as she stared deeply at Skyler and nodded,
“Okay!”
She did not want to get out of the car and become a burden for Skyler.
Skyler was about to open the door when a flashlight suddenly shone over and the flashing light caused
him to cover his eyes.
The person took the steel pipe, knocked on the car’s window, and taunted them. “F*cker, why aren’t you
getting out yet? Do you want me to invite you out?”
Skyler opened the door with a sullen face and the surrounding flashlights instantly shone on him.
Fortunately, the person did not start a fight right away. Even under a situation like this, Skyler maintained
his usual composure.
He said in a deep voice, “Who sent you here and what do you want?”
The ringleader who had a tattoo on his arm put the steel pipe on his shoulder, smirked, and raised his
chin dauntingly as he looked at Skyler. “Why? What’s the point of asking all these? Are you still thinking
about surviving in this situation?”
Skyler looked at him calmly as a dim light flashed in his eyes. “I don’t want to do anything, but I can give
you three times as much as whoever that sent you!”
When the gang heard it, they laughed out loud. “Boss, did you hear that? This pretty boy actually said
that he wants to give us three times as much!”
“Are all the pretty boys so arrogant now? Hilarious!” “He might even be more powerful! His confidence
would naturally grow if all the women he coaxes listens to him!” “Hahaha…”
Skyler’s face was flashing with anger as he stayed quiet while he listened to the gangsters’ foul
language.
The ringleader raised his hand and his subordinates’ laughing immediately stopped. He stretched out his
hand and pinched Skyler’s cheek. “Pretty boy, don’t be cocky. We might even let you get out of this
alive!”
He completely disbelieved Skyler since he thought that he did not know how much they were making
from this deal.
When he finished speaking, he arrogantly patted Skyler’s face.
Suddenly, he saw Skyler’s sharp gaze on him and his eyes were filled with cold intent to kill.
The man’s hand suddenly stopped and felt inexplicably scared.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe was afraid that his subordinates would realize that he was scared by a pretty boy so he stiffly put
down his hand and turned around unnaturally.
When Skyler looked at him, he could actually suppress his intent to kill which was terrifying!
He called to his subordinates, “Don’t forget who our target is. Get that woman in the car out and take her
away!”
Skyler’s gaze sunk and he stood in front of the car as he blended into the dark. “She’s your target?”
The man was a little frightened by the look Skyler had so he turned around to grab the steel pipe and
swung it towards Skyler’s leg while saying, “Who do you think you are? Why should I answer your
questions?” However, his steel pipe missed as Skyler easily dodged it and grabbed onto it with his hand.
The man’s expression changed as he did not expect that the pretty boy was capable of that. He shouted,
“Get him! I want him dead!” In an instant, a steel pipe went flying at Skyler. Skyler forcefully snatched the
steel pipe from the man’s hand, turned around, and blocked the incoming blow.
The darkness hid his fierce expression as he held the steel pipe and dodged the group of people. One by
one he blocked the incoming blows. The man saw that the situation was unfavorable and when Skyler
was not paying attention, he circled around him and swung open the car door to pull Jocelyn out of the
car. Jocelyn defended herself and threw him over her shoulder before turning around to help Skyler.
The man did not expect that not only was the pretty boy difficult to deal with but the woman was also a
tough one.
He took the opportunity of Jocelyn’s failure to respond, quickly got up from the ground, and grabbed
Jocelyn’s neck from behind. He took out a dagger from his jacket and aimed it right at her neck. His tone
was anxious and angry. “Stop right there, pretty boy, or I’ll kill this woman right now!”
Skyler froze when he saw the situation Jocelyn was in and immediately stopped resisting.
