Then, everyone watched Rodger being beaten by Raymond. At first, Rodger screamed in pain, but then, there were only groans. He no longer had the strength to shout.
However, Veronica didn't hear these sounds because the car was very well soundproofed. The music in the car made her drowsy already after relaxing in the car.
Outside, the beating continued. Rodger's face was swollen, and no one recognized the man as Rodger anymore.
Rodger was beaten by Raymond until he was on the verge of death.
On the side, Devin gaped at Raymond's crazed appearance. Moreover, Raymond did not seem to have any intention of stopping.
After all, Rodger was a foreign national and a representative of Fortune Group. If Rodger really died here, there would be trouble.
Raymond grabbed Rodger's neck in his hand. Rodger's eyes were so swollen that they could not be opened. Raymond's face was red. He wanted to punch Rodger, but his arm was grabbed by Devin behind him.
"Mr. Cordova, that's enough. You can't kill him."
"Let go!" Raymond's face was gloomy, and the words he spat out were extremely cold as if he was about to vent his anger on Devin.
Devin gathered his courage and gripped Raymond's arm tightly. "Mr. Cordova, that's enough. Besides, Ms. Luke is still waiting for you in the car. She must be frightened."
Hearing this, Raymond calmed down a little.
However, he could not let Rodger off so easily.
The dagger that Rodger used to threaten Veronica was still on the ground. Raymond stared at Rodger's right hand without blinking. The blade fell and Rodger's right hand was cut off.
The pain in Rodger's right hand made him scream.
Raymond let go of Rodger and walked towards the black Bentley. The fierce aura emitted by his body had mostly disappeared.
Devin looked at Rodger, who had lost one of his hands, and asked two people, "Take him away!"
Raymond opened the car door and got in. Probably because Veronica had waited for too long, she seemed to have fallen asleep while leaning against the back seat.
Raymond stared at her face and reached out to hug her, moving her inside. Just as he touched her, Veronica woke up.
Veronica shrank back in panic and screamed, "Don't touch me! Don't touch me!"
Looking at Veronica's current appearance, Raymond regretted not using the dagger to cut Rodger's throat.
"Veronica," Raymond sat beside her and gently called out. "It's me. I'm Raymond. You're fine now. You're safe."
Raymond's voice sounded. Veronica lifted her face, which was buried in her knees, slightly.
"Who are you?" Veronica was like a wounded little beast, and her eyes were filled with disbelief. There was a sparkling light flashing in her eyes.
Veronica usually seemed strong and often helped others. But she was just a girl. She would feel scared and helpless.
She must be extremely scared just now.
"It was me, Raymond." Raymond gently touched Veronica. Feeling that she did not resist, he pulled her into his arms. Her body was still trembling. His palm gently patted her back and comforted her softly, "Alright, it's fine now. I've always been here. No one will hurt you."
Smelling the familiar scent of Raymond at the tip of her nose, Veronica finally confirmed that she was really in Raymond's embrace.
She was sure she was all right.
Before this, she had even prepared for the worst.
Fortunately, he came.
