“You sure are brave. Threatening my husband and pointing a gun at me?” The corner of Ashlyn's lips curled upward into a smirk as her gaze remained icy.
Ashlyn's chilling voice echoed in his ear. All of a sudden, a sharp pain shot from his neck, causing him to wail in agony.
As he twisted in pain, he caught sight of Ashlyn's pretty face just inches away from his. Her clear eyes pierced into his soul, exposing every bit of his fear.
W-What a scary woman. Not just her aura, but her fighting skills as well!
In just a few seconds, before the scarred man could even register what was going on, he found himself being held captive by Ashlyn.
This woman... is terrifying!
“I-I'm just working for Franklin! I'm just a henchman, a lackey! Please let me go...”
The scarred man could not bear the pain coursing through his entire body. He squirmed and shrieked for help every few seconds.
Whenever he lifted his eyes, he met Ashlyn's stone-cold gaze. Her beautiful black eyes were as dark as the depths of hell, which made him shudder.
“Help! Help me!” he screamed in terror.
When the other men saw what was going on, they quickly charged toward Ashlyn in an attempt to surround her.
All traces of tenderness on Lucas' devilishly handsome face vanished as his gaze turned eerily hostile. “It's my wife's right to love and protect me. How dare you lot try to cause her trouble?”
As he spoke, his expression grew darker every second.
Ashlyn had never failed to surprise him.
Even though they were some distance apart, he could feel her wrath directed toward Franklin. Her wrath was so great that it was almost tangible. There was no doubt that she was burning with rage at Franklin's shameless attempts to constantly humiliate and bully Lucas.
Lucas' gaze softened as he turned to look at Ashlyn. A sense of warmth flowed in his veins when he saw Ashlyn defending him.
Just as he was dealing with the other men, a loud crack reverberated in the silence, catching everyone's attention. Ashlyn had broken the scarred man's neck!
Terror filled the men's eyes as they exchanged glances.
T-This is—
Bang!
