Chapter 79 The Moment With Him

• When danger came, Echo didn't think of anything else—only that Ryan was strong, and if anyone had a chance of saving her, it would be him. Somehow, she was completely convinced, as if she'd built up this stubborn belief out of nowhere, that Ryan would come for her.
• But when Ryan actually showed up and put himself in her place, using his body to shield her, the shock hit hard. She couldn't lie—she was stunned. At that moment, as she climbed onto the rescue ladder, she found it impossible to believe. Ryan—him—had chosen to protect her.
• Now that she had some time to think it over, it felt even more unreal. Ryan wasn't just anyone—he was the Boss of the Dark family, the king of the underworld. A man with so much power that even some heads of state had to respect him. And yet, he had come for her--risking everything. That just didn't add up.
