“Violet, are you crazy!?” Lina trembled with anger.
When Zuko stood before her, Lina instinctively took a few steps back.
“All of you… get lost! Or I’ll call the police!”
“Don’t scare me with the police!” Violet gloated. “Lina, if I don’t see your marriage certificate with this idiot within
three days, I’ll return to smash your store!
“Even if you call the police, they’ll make me compensate you! Hah! The Grists don’t lack money. I’ll just think I’m
feeding the dogs!
Violet sneered coldly, her lips curling. “But it’s different for your parents. If you’re willing to let them see how I
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdestroy their lifetime of hard work with their own eyes, then go ahead and oppose me!”
“You!” Lina raised her hand abruptly, but that slap never landed. She knew the Grists had power and influence, so
the Grist Group’s products would still circulate in the market even if she reported and resisted.
Even though her family’s small supermarket was smashed like this, there was not a single neighbor around who
dared to help. If Violet wanted to embarrass her, she had to be embarrassed.
Lina’s trembling hand hung in the air. She was not afraid for herself, but she was afraid of Violet retaliating against
her parents and her younger brother.
Zuko’s cold gaze scanned the faces of everyone present. He could clearly see Lina’s anger and sadness, Violet’s
bullying, and the indifference and ruthlessness of the onlookers. He felt some sympathy for the girl.
However, the battle between the women was too boring. He needed to expedite the progress of this battle.
“Hah, why don’t you hit me!?” Violet taunted, pointing at her own face. “What’s wrong, scared now? Hit me!
“Lina, you truly disappoint me! I bet even with ten times the courage, you still wouldn’t dare touch me!”
Lina took a sharp breath. Just then, a broad palm grasped her wrist, forcefully pressed against the back of her
hand, and landed a resounding slap on Violet’s face!
“So annoying,” Zuko calmly uttered two words.
Violet was stunned, staring at the two of them without saying a word for a while. Lina was also in a daze. She
turned to look at the man beside her. It was him… it was him who had pushed her hand and slapped Violet!
“Ah!” Violet screamed in shock.
Several bodyguards rushed forward, but none of them was a match for Zuko. With his he quickly knocked the
bodyguards to the ground. His sturdy body shielded Lina securely.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLina could only stare at his broad back. His back was like a wall, isolating her in an incredibly safe little world.
“Zeke, how… How dare you hit me!?” Violet’s face turned pale with anger. “How dare you help that b*tch hit me!?”
“Didn’t you ask for it yourself?” he asked back.
“You!”
“I’m just hurrying her and fulfilling your wish!” said Zuko.
Although Violet was nearly driven mad by anger, the advantage was clearly not on her side now. She kicked one of
the bodyguards and mumbled something under her breath before turning and fleeing.
It took Lina quite some time to calm down. She lowered her head and walked into the small supermarket. The
shelves had collapsed, crates of eggs were shattered, and the air was filled with the unpleasant smell of mushed
fruits. As she was about to start cleaning up, a strong arm reached out and gently helped her prop up a shelf. Lina
was stunned for a moment.
