Chapter 521
Suri was agape. She couldn’t believe the gentle Sarah could be this fierce.
“R–Right away.” Cobra held back his pain and told his men to help him up,
then they left with their tails between their legs, but once he was out of
Sarah’s sight, Cobra hissed, “Damn those b*tches. I can’t believe they’d come
all the way here. Just you wait. I’m going to get my homies and wreck your
sorry *sses.‘
Even though Cobra and his men had been scared off, the sickly lady was still
worried. “You should leave right now.”
“We’re not scared. No matter how many of them there are, we’ll beat them
up.” Sarah was confident in her abilities. She would not desert this woman,
and moreover, she had a mission to accomplish.
“Don’t underestimate the thugs here. Cobra’s just a minor leader of the thugs
in West Shelter Village. He serves a master more powerful than you can
imagine,” said the woman, worried.
“Is that so?”
Suri quickly said, “We shouldn’t stay here any longer, miss. Let’s leave. We’re
not here to fight, so let’s go while we can.”
“But what happens to her if we leave?” Sarah couldn’t just leave Amy behind.
The sickly woman quickly said, “Our lives are worth nothing! You’re more
precious than us, so leave, and right away! They’ll come back with a lot more
people.”
Sarah was a little scared, but if she were to leave, then Amy would have to
fend for herself. She couldn’t just leave a mentally unstable girl to fate. “All
lives are made equal. If we’re leaving, then you’re coming with us,” Sarah
insisted.
The sickly woman heaved a sigh. “We’re not worth it. I can’t even walk far. If
you want to help us, then take Amy with you. You’re still young. You have a
bright future ahead of you, so don’t waste it on me.”
She was trying to be kind, but Sarah couldn’t just leave her behind, not after
what she said. “No. If you’re not leaving, then I’m not leaving too. Now that I’m
here, I’m going to see this through.”
Sarah had made up her mind, and none could convince her to change her
decision. Suri and the sickly woman heaved a sigh.
Morning came. A burly man was found frolicking with six beautiful women in a
hot spring within a stone house located in North Star Village.
Just then, one of the man’s lackeys hurried over to the hot spring. “Bad news,
Mr. Hound. Something’s gone wrong in West Shelter Village. Cobra wants to
see you.”
“Ah, what is it this time?” His fun time interrupted, Bugsy Hound impatiently
barked, “Get that dumb*ss here.”
“Yes, sir!” The lackey quickly did as he was told.
A while later, Cobra came crawling in on all fours, shouting, “You have to help
me, Mr. Hound! Two b*tches came to West Shelter Village, and they can fight!
They beat me to a pulp, you see!”
Bugsy looked at Cobra and froze. “What in blazes… Those b*tches broke your
nose? You look even more like a snake now,” he guffawed.
The women in the hot spring chuckled ́as well.
Cobra was in a lot of pain, but he wasn’t angry that Bugsy and his women
were laughing at him. “You have to help me, Mr. Hound. Those b*tches told
me to drag your *ss over to them so they can whoop you up too.’
“What?” Bugsy snarled. “Those b*tches really said that?”
“Yeah!” Cobra thumped his chest. “And one of them is beautiful. To be honest,
she’s prettier than all the ladies here.”
“Are you sure about that?” Bugsy’s eyes shone. He was a lecher after all, and
Cobra knew Bugsy would march over to the village once he heard a beautiful
woman was involved.
As Cobra predicted, Bugsy changed into his clothes and charged toward
West Shelter Village with a big group of gangsters behind him.
Chapter 522
Sarah had decided to stay and take care of the sickly lady until she was
nursed back to health. Then she would take her and Amy and leave this
godforsaken hellhole.
“Let me do that, Miss Sarah,” Suri said. She couldn’t believe Sarah was cooking
and cleaning. She’s a Quillen!
“It’s alright. I can do this.” Sarah smiled, but she didn’t stop.
As the sickly woman lay on the bed and watched her in silence, conflicting
emotions welled up within her. She was worried for Sarah, but the kindness of
this young lady was a sliver of light in the darkness of this village. She had
been in this hellscape and living her life in humiliation for decades, after all.
Soon, a commotion broke out as expected, but it was larger than the woman
thought it would be. The ground itself was rumbling, and she looked out the
window. There’s at least a hundred of them! Shocked, the woman leaped out
of bed. “Dear Lord, that must be Bugsy himself. Leave using the backdoor
now, or you’ll never escape!”
“This isn’t a drill, Miss Sarah. We need to get out of here,” said Suri worriedly.
There were more than a hundred people out there. No matter how good a
fighter Sarah was, she couldn’t fend off a hundred men.
Sarah knew that too. This wasn’t something she could handle herself, so she
quickly said, “Suri, we’re also taking Mrs. Hedge with us too, so help me.”
The woman was crying, touched that Sarah still wouldn’t give up on her even
now. However, when the ladies came out of the backdoor with Amy and her
mother in tow, the whole house was already surrounded, and a group of
burly men stopped their path.
“I can’t believe she’s still here!” Cobra’s eyes shone at the sight of Sarah. He
was worried they might have made their escape. If they did, he wouldn’t be
able to do whatever he wanted to them.
Bugsy and a few of his lackeys arrived shortly after. One look at him, and
Sarah knew he was not to be trifled with. His muscles were taut, and his
footsteps were firm. Bugsy was no trifling thug like Cobra.
A worried Suri whispered, “What now, Miss Sarah? I think you should just ditch
all three of us and run.” If she escapes alone, she might be able to break
through, but with us tagging along? Not a chance in hell.
Sarah gritted her teeth. “I won’t ditch you guys.”
Even at a distance, Bugsy heard everything, and he roared with laughter.
“Good! I love women who care about their friends. So, you want to stay here
and marry me? I might have a harem, but I can make you feel like a queen.”
Suri spat in disdain. “How dare you speak to her like that, you oaf? Do you
have any idea who she is? She’s one of Yeringham’s most prized women.”
Fighting head–on wouldn’t win them the battle, so she had to use the family
name to scare these people off.
Bugsy froze for a moment before grinning. “Ah, a Yeringham local. Well, spill
the beans. Tell us who this lady is.”
Before Sarah could say anything, Suri proudly proclaimed, “Then listen close,
oafs. She’s the second daughter of the Quillen family, the richest family in
Yeringham. Touch her, and her father will level this place along with you in it.”
She thought the threat would work. After all, the Quillens were also an
influential family in Onza.
However, the thugs burst into laughter along with their boss. They didn’t even
think the Quillen family was a threat. Bugsy swaggered ahead and tried to
hold her chin. “And here I wondered where this lily angel came from.
Daughter of Yeringham’s richest man, I see. Explains the beauty.”
Chapter 523
Before Bugsy could hit her, Sarah smacked his hand away. Stung by the
smack, he frowned.
“What?”
“That b*tch just hit Mr. Hound! Get her!”
The lackeys roared, foaming at their mouths. Bugsy was the top dog of all the
villages in these settlements, and they would not allow a mere wench to sully
their king’s pride.
Bugsy held his hand up, telling his lackeys to calm down, then he licked his
lips. “Feisty. Cobra told me you broke his hose, aye?”
“So what if I did?” Sarah looked at him coldly, unfazed.
“You seem to be confident in your skills.” Bugsy laughed with excitement.
“Then why don’t we have a duel? If you win, I’ll let all of you go, and my men
will not stop you. But if you lose, then you’ll have to stay here and marry me.”
“In your dreams!” Suri barked. This oaf wants Miss Sarah to marry him? Not in
a million years!
Bugsy ignored Suri and stared at Sarah instead. Sarah pursed her lips. It was
obvious they were in a dire situation. Her family name wasn’t enough to get
her out of this, so she must rely on her skills. She would rather fight one guy
over a hundred. This way, at least she might have a chance to win. “Fine, but
if you break your word, I’ll break your head,” said Sarah.
Suri and the sickly woman heaved a sigh. They thought Sarah was sacrificing
herself for people that weren’t worth it.
“Good! I’m lovin‘ you more and more, honey.” Bugsy burst into laughter. He
was confident that he could win.
“Shut it, you cur!” Sarah whipped her leg at Bugsy’s mouth. She was fast and
flexible. Not even professional dancers could flex their limbs like she could.
However, her opponent was faster. He held his hand open and blocked the
attack, then he held her leg. It shocked Sarah and she tried to pull her leg
away, but she couldn’t. She had to lose her shoe before she could pull her leg
back.
Cobra and the lackeys roared with laughter. Some even shouted obscene
remarks.
“Pretty foot, missy. So white… So soft… I wanna lick it.”
“Mr. Hound, why dontcha take off her other shoe too?”
“Take off her clothes so we can see what’s underneath too!”
Some of the perverts were even drooling.
Bugsy sniffed Sarah’s shoe and grinned. “Ah, the scent of a rich princess. Even
your feet smell good. Wonder if you taste as good as you smell.” He leered.
Disgusting. Infuriated, Sarah lashed out at Bugsy again, but he saw through
her attack and swept his leg across the ground to trip her.
Sarah fell with a thud, the pain numbing her body.
Chapter 524
Emmanuel and Eve were hurrying along the path leading to West Shelter
Village. They needed to find Blockhead’s sister and then seek out Bugsy for
revenge. Because of the drizzle the night before, the mountain path was a
hard trail to trek. It was filled with holes and puddles.
Thankfully, Emmanuel and Eve used to be in the special forces, so they could
easily navigate terrain like this. Eve then checked the ground and deduced
accurately, “Hey, a ton of people just went into West Shelter a while ago.
Something’s up.”
Emmanuel had noticed that as well. He didn’t care about the fight in West
Shelter, but he was worried Amy might get dragged into it, so he said, “We
need to pick up the pace. Tell the WWS to speed up too.”
“Yeah.” Eve nodded and quickly whipped out her military–grade
communicator. She could issue a command even in remote places like this.
Her men were no easy pickings either, but they were still a far cry from her
and Emmanuel.
At the same time, cheers and howls of delight erupted around Mrs. Hedge’s
house.
“Nice going, Mr. Hound!”
“Mess her up! Mess her up!”
The perverted lackeys were obviously pumped with excitement. Bugsy cared
nothing for women but thought of his men as good friends, so even though
he might want to marry Sarah, he would probably let his lackeys check her
naked body out first.
Cobra, especially, thought that was the case. When he went to ask for
Bugsy’s help, the guy was having fun with six women in the hot spring, and
still, he didn’t mind Cobra catching a look. It should be the same thing with
this b*tch too, right? This woman’s a lot hotter than the ones in the hot spring.
Bugsy went ahead and held Sarah’s calf, taking off her other shoe. The reveal
of her feet alone made the man scream in excitement.
“Tear her clothes off, Mr. Hound! I wanna see the size of her tits!”
“You don’t get to see a woman like her every day! We want to see what’s so
special about her!”
With Sarah unable to fight, Suri was starting to panic. She knew it was futile,
but she still picked up a stone and tried to slam it down on Bugsy’s head.
However, Bugsy grabbed her by the neck without even looking, then he held
her up.
The sight reminded Amy of some horrible memory, and she let out a scream.
“No… No! Don’t touch me! No!” She tried to scurry into a hiding place out of
fear. It stemmed from the trauma left by Bugsy’s torture.
Emmanuel and Eve shoved the throng away and walked into the scene just
in time to see what was going on, and Emmanuel was shocked. He wondered
why Sarah was here. And Hound is touching her? What the hell happened
here?
“Let her go, you b*stard!” Sarah pushed through the pain and leaped into the
air while Bugsy was distracted, and she swung her leg at his head.
Emmanuel was surprised once more. Sarah had always been a gentle and
understanding woman. He never thought she could actually fight.
Bugsy chortled and flung Suri away, then grabbed Sarah by the ankle. The
overwhelming disadvantage he had over Sarah snuffed out what little spirit.
Sarah had in her.
“Ooh, long legs you have there, pretty. Let’s see if they’re smooth enough.”
Bugsy tore her pants off, revealing a fair and beautiful leg.
Chapter 525
The thugs were whipped into an even wilder frenzy, and none of them
noticed Emmanuel and Eve among the crowd.
“Damn it, let me go!” Sarah wanted to break free, but Bugsy was a lot stronger
than she was.
Bugsy’s hand was slowly slithering up her leg, moving toward her privates.
Just when he was inches away from touching Sarah, someone held his wrist
in an iron grip, stopping him cold. The power! Bugsy was shocked.
The only reason he became the top dog around here was thanks to his
fighting prowess, and his arm strength was second to none in this area, yet
now, someone with strength on par with his was gripping his wrist.
“Emmanuel?” Noticing Emmanuel’s appearance, Sarah was overwhelmed
with relief. As she relaxed, tears filled her eyes.
“Scram.” Emmanuel shoved Bugsy away, causing the thug to stagger
backward.
The lackeys‘ excitement was doused and replaced by deathly silence. Eve
looked at Bugsy. I can see why he’s the top dog around here. His strength is
on par with Emmanuel’s.
“Emmanuel!” Sarah leaped into Emmanuel’s arms. With a tremulous voice,
she said, “You were just in time. H–He would’ve…” She couldn’t finish her
sentence. What happened just now was humiliating and mortifying, not to
mention it was done right in front of these thugs.
“I won’t let them hurt you.” Emmanuel patted her shoulder and held her up. I
can’t let them see us like this, especially not in public. She’s my sister–in–law…
Emmanuel wouldn’t risk a social death.
“Ah, I heard of you. You’re her brother–in–law? Guess you’re a lucky man.”
Bugsy grinned. Even his lackeys thought that Emmanuel’s wife must be pretty
too, given that her sister was a gorgeous lady herself.
“Shut it. You’re Bugsy? The guy they call Mr. Hound?” Emmanuel was unfazed
even though there were a hundred men glaring at him.
“Yeah, that’s me alright.” Bugsy puffed his chest out and approached
Emmanuel. “I was queling with your sister–in–law. If I win, she’s going to marry
Emmanuel, but he was wary about this guy. He picked a friendly approach,
though there wasn’t much friendliness in it.
“Shut it. You want to marry Sarah? In–your dreams,” Emmanuel snapped,
resolve flaring in his eyes. “I’m here to take you out. First, for Sarah, and
second, for Amy.”
The announcement was a bombshell, sending shockwaves rippling through
the lackeys. Everyone inhaled sharply. They couldn’t believe this guy would
say something so impudent, and to Bugsy himself too. This guy was the top
dog in this area.
Bugsy’s face turned red, and then he was reminded of his lackey’s report. He
scoffed. “So, you’re the guy who f*cked up Chubs?”
“That is correct,” said Emmanuel coldly. He pointed at Amy and roared, “You
did this to her, didn’t you?”
Bugsy couldn’t deny it, not in front of his lackeys. He couldn’t back off either, or
they might think he was weak, so he sneered. “And so what if I did? What can
you even do to me?” He laughed.
Chapter 526
“Get him, boys! And capture the women!” Bugsy roared. He didn’t care for
rules or fair play in battles. The only reason he wanted to duel Sarah alone
was because he knew he would win, and he would also have an excuse to
make her marry him willingly.
Sarah was a lot more beautiful than Amy, so he didn’t want to drive her crazy
after one use. However, after Emmanuel stepped in, he knew he couldn’t win
in a fair duel, so he resorted to his numbers advantage. He knew Emmanuel
had a lot of men around the place too, but if he could take the head honcho
down, then he could easily take out Emmanuel’s men.
Bugsy’s men snapped out of their stupor and quickly charged ahead. At the
same time, Eve launched an offensive. She brandished a black whip and
swung it around, her weapon slithering like a viper, then lashed it at the
enemies like dark lightning.
The whip cracked away at Bugsy’s lackeys, tearing their flesh apart. Howls
and screams of agony shattered the air, and it was then Sarah noticed Eve.
Hey, that’s the leader of Yeringham’s Wolf Warrior Society. Why is she here
Shock reverberated within Bugsy. His moves are clean and straight to the
itself; and Emmanuel gripped his arm and swung him in circles in the air.
how hard it must be for a team to walk in this uniform manner. They were
“Don’t move!”
