Chapter 9 Hero Saving the Damsel in Distress Once Again

  • Jenna hesitated for a moment. Before she could react, she was pushed aside.
  • “I—” Lucas was just about to throw a tantrum when he was greeted by the sight before him which nearly made him burst into laughter instead. Adam was crouching in front of the sofa. His clothes were disheveled and his hair was a mess. More importantly, he was sporting a black eye with a bitter and resentful look. When he saw Lucas entering the room, he reacted as if he was a drowning man clutching a piece of driftwood.
  • “Young Master Lucas! Young Master Lucas, please save me.”
  • “What is this? What kinks are you playing with?” Lucas glanced toward Jenna, who looked like she was simply doing whatever she wanted.
  • “It’s nothing. Your assistant and I were just communicating a little,” Jenna lightly replied, playing down the situation while picking at her nails.
  • “No, that’s not it, Young Master Lucas! That woman is so violent! Why didn’t you tell me that?!”
  • Lucas had the feeling that Adam was about to burst into tears. Thus, he doubled over with laughter. “This is too much. You shouldn’t mess with what’s mine. Why did you do this?”
  • “I was just teaching your dog a little lesson so that he won’t show his fangs without your command. I’m only making it so that he remembers this lesson well.”
  • “Nonsense. How am I supposed to bring him out if you beat him up this badly? Forget it; I received news from the other side. Iris Parker seems to have gotten trapped by them. Hurry up and come with me.” Lucas was a little disorganized. He nearly forgot the reason he came here after entering the room.
  • “Young Master Lucas, with my current appearance, I—”
  • “Stop talking nonsense. There’s ice inside the car. Why did you have to be so rash? Get a move on.” He walked out impatiently. When he passed by Jenna, she sneaked a glance at him. However, he didn’t even react to her whatsoever.
  • Feeling resigned, Adam walked out with his head bowed. When he reached the door, Jenna threateningly raised her fist at him again, scaring him so much that he fled in terror.
  • Meanwhile, Iris was waiting for the devil to descend upon her. On the other hand, Isaac was the same as usual—he was absolutely repulsive. Moreover, he even had a loyal pug following behind him this time.
  • “Go on; escape. Didn’t you have a backer? I’ll see where you can run off to today.” Isaac grabbed Iris by the chin with one hand. She did not struggle against him; she simply wished that this ordeal could end as quickly as possible.
  • “I won’t run. I only have one wish. Can we go somewhere else, please?” Her eyes were full of sorrow.
  • “Somewhere else? Why? So that you can find somebody else to help you? Dream on; we’ll do it right here—right in front of your husband—so that he can experience the feeling of being cuckolded. Haha; isn’t that right?”
  • “Right, right. Anything that pleases you, Mr. Howard.”
  • To think that Dexter can stoop to such a level. This really opens my eyes. Still, both of them were the same in her eyes—they made her so sick that she felt like puking.
  • “But, this is such a pity. I thought I’d get to take her virginity. In the end, she is still used goods. Little Dex, we agreed on this, right? The price before no longer counts. After all, she isn’t fresh anymore.”
  • “Mr. Howard, how can you say that? Even if she isn’t brand new anymore, she still has a long shelf life. Don’t you agree?”
  • “Haha. That’s right. She still has a long shelf life. Let’s see how well she performs. We can discuss her price later based on her performance.”
  • Iris felt as if she was just a commodity, and the two men were haggling over her price. For some reason, she only hated one person from the bottom of her heart—Dexter Watson. “I can’t believe how blind I was. Dexter Watson, you’re no better than scum.”
  • When Dexter heard those words, his lips trembled slightly. Even so, he said nothing.
  • “That’s enough. Stop wasting time. Let’s get down to business.” Isaac couldn’t wait any longer as he dragged Iris up from the sofa.
  • Her heart felt cold—it felt as if the blood in her body had frozen over at that moment.
  • “I’ll do whatever you say. Can we go somewhere else, please?” she pleaded again, looking at him pitifully.
  • “Oh, my. This look is so endearing; it makes my heart ache! But, I can’t do that.”
  • Feeling a strong force pulling her body forward, she suddenly found herself collapsing in his arms. It’s over. Everything is over. The feeling that she couldn’t escape from this nightmare anymore washed over her. That man couldn’t possibly appear under these circumstances. Although she knew that, the most basic desire to beg for help had not vanished from her heart. “Where are you?! Please, save me!”
  • “You b*tch! You said you didn’t know who he was before!” When Dexter heard her cry for help, he immediately tried to slap her. It was as if the very existence of that unknown man enraged him.
  • “Take your hands away. How will I have my fun if you break her? If you want to beat her up, do it after you drag her back home.”
  • “Yes, of course. I understand, Mr. Howard,” he smilingly replied. Iris recalled that she used to love the way he smiled because it always seemed so sweet. However, that smile seemed more like the devil’s smirk instead at this moment. It made her heart hurt.
  • All of a sudden, loud banging noises of somebody knocking on the door came from outside. It made Isaac pause in his actions. The room is just right in front of me. Who would come here at this time? He seemed extremely unsatisfied as he snarled, “Damn it! Go and see what’s going on!”
  • “You! Who are you?!” The young boy who opened the door was kicked to the ground by the people outside.
  • Iris could feel the tears swimming in her eyes. That’s right. It’s that man again! He appeared in front of me again! This is the second time. It’s the second time he’s rescuing me.
  • “Save me! Please, save me!” she yelled at Lucas.
  • “You again?! Who the f*ck are you?! I haven’t even settled my previous score with you yet. How dare you come again?” Isaac was well aware that all the people here today were working for him. It was different from the situation back at the hotel the other day. No matter what, he wouldn’t lose in this fight this time around. “That’s great. I might as well make you pay for everything you’ve done up until now!”
  • Lucas curled his lips and disregarded Isaac in disdain. He walked straight to Iris instead. Iris wanted to rush over to him. However, she found that her body was being held back by something. Looking back, she discovered that Dexter was holding her back with all his might.
  • “Let go of me, you b*stard!” Iris struggled desperately.
  • Lucas flew over and kicked out. At the same time, Dexter dodged and avoided the blow but accidentally released his grip on her. She felt her body spinning in a circle before she fell into Lucas’ arms. What a beautiful man. The man in front of her was only inches away from her. It wasn’t just because he had rescued her. Rather, she felt as if this man had a magical power that made her unable to look away from him.
  • “Who is your husband?” Lucas suddenly lowered his head and whispered in her ears.
  • Damn it. Iris felt her body go numb as if it had been electrified. “The person who grabbed me just now.”
  • Lucas sneaked a peek. I see; so that’s Iris Parker’s husband.
