Never Late, Never Away Chapter 2291
The entire situation had Joan bewildered. In normal circumstances, someone would step out to mediate the situation, but presently not a single person had come forward to be the peacemaker.
It looks like the villagers here are truly beyond contemptible! Ugh! Why on earth did I choose this place back then? I must have gone crazy!
She clenched her hands tightly as apprehension brewed within her.
“Ahh!” All of a sudden, the man snagged the wooden stick beside him and swung it at Caiden.
“Run, Joan! Quick!” Caiden yelled as he pushed her aside forcefully.
“Come on! Get him!” The villagers around them clamored.
In the end, Joan decided to escape.
No, I can’t allow this to continue! I’ve got to go to the village committee and ask them to put this right!
Cough! Lying on the ground, Caiden wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth.
Meanwhile, a distance away, Joan glanced over her shoulder at the man on the ground from time to time with distress teeming in her eyes.
“So, what’s your decision? Do you still want to fight?” the man bellowed.
“Hah! You’re simply a b*stard! All you do is pick on tourists! What’s so great about that?” Caiden retorted loudly after spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Well, well… He’s quite gutsy! He’s already in such a dismal state, yet he’s unwilling to admit defeat? Fine, then. I’ll beat him up until he begs me for mercy!
Thud! Thud…
After enduring several blows, Caiden truly could not take it anymore. As he lay on the ground, he squinted in the direction where Joan had fled.
Joan Watts, will you remember me forever if I die today? At that thought, the corners of his lips curved into a faint smile.
“Are you insane? Why would you do this to yourself just because of a woman? Are you even a man?”
“Exactly! What’s so good about that woman? She only has a pretty face. There are plenty of women out there more beautiful than she!”
