Chapter 219

• Seeing the hand heading for his face, Tedmond didn’t bother dodging or bracing himself, which made Ottis even more furious. Ottis still remembered when Tedmond would brace himself or try to dodge the punch, but now, it was different.
• “You insolent bastard!” Ottis barked, and without another word, he raised his hand to strike.
• However, before the punch could land, Tedmond’s hand shot up, effortlessly catching Ottis’s wrist in mid-air. The sudden stop made Ottis flinch.
