The short man paled drastically when he saw the larger men walking over.
Immediately, he asked Jared and the others to leave. “Mister, please get off the car. We can't drive you there anymore. We won't.”
Bewildered, Jared asked, “What's the matter? Why won't you drive us there now?”
Before the short man could say anything, the burly men reached them. One of them, who was bearded, grabbed the short man by his collar and lifted him into the air.
“Hey, how dare you try to get customers on my territory? Do you have a death wish?”
Right as the bearded man said that, he punched the short man in the face.
Blood spurted out of the short man's nose and leaked out from the corners of his lips, but his companions did not dare to say anything or move a muscle.
“Get down!” the bearded man roared at Jared and the rest.
Flaxseed was about to get down from the car when Jared stopped him and turned to Colin. “Colin, deal with it.”
“Got it.”
With a nod, Colin alighted from the car.
Yet, as soon as Colin came down from the car, a gorgeous figure streaked past him. In the next second, a cry of agony echoed in the air. The bearded man had been kicked into the air.
“You guys are such bullies! How outrageous!” Astrid bellowed at the burly men, her expression glacial.
Since Astrid had made a move, Colin sighed and turned to look at Jared. The latter gestured for him to return to the car.
The bearded man was terrified when he was sent flying by Astrid's kick, but when he realized his attacker was a woman, a look of shock crossed his face before an angry expression replaced it.
“After her! Seize the girl!” he roared.
The other burly men instantly charged toward Astrid.
“Don't kill them,” Jared reminded, afraid that she would lose control of herself and kill the men.
