Sasha stood frozen in the doorway, her face pale. "Are you all insane? This is a crime!"
The men were visibly annoyed by her interruption, and one of them started toward her, intending to drag her inside as well.
"Perfect timing, you little witch! Come join the fun!"
"Ah!" Sasha screamed, drawing the attention of people in the hallway.
Just then, Maria happened to come out of the nearby room. Hearing the commotion, she asked, "What’s going on?"
Sasha spotted her and immediately rushed over, grabbing her hand. "Hurry, Aveline’s inside, they’re—"
What?
Maria’s expression changed instantly, and she bolted into the room, where she saw Aveline pinned down by several men.
"You bastards dare to touch someone of mine?" Maria cursed under her breath, swiftly and efficiently taking down the men holding Aveline.
"Hurry, call Lucas!" Maria ordered, turning to Sasha with a stern look. "This needs to be handled quietly!"
"I-I understand..." Sasha stammered, nodding as she shakily pulled out her phone to find Lucas’ number.
Maria rushed to Aveline’s side, lifting her up. Seeing the tear stains on her face, Maria’s heart filled with guilt. "I’m so sorry, I shouldn’t have let you go off on your own."
But Aveline just stared blankly ahead, her body trembling uncontrollably.
Maria held her close, adjusting her clothes to cover her up properly.
