Three days later, Connor was standing outside the door of Room 1606 in KR Restaurant. The door was left ajar. Connor squinted his eyes when he saw the clothes were spread all over the floor.
“Mr. Watts, stop. Please, let go of me.”
“Mr. Watts…”
Someone kept begging in a choked voice.
Connor was stupefied when he heard the familiar sound. And he suddenly felt he was trapped in the dark.
It was his wife, Annie Lowe.
He kicked in the door without hesitating, trying to protect his wife.
“Sweetie, if you keep struggling, I will tell everyone that Connor abused his position and bought the shoddy dye. Then he will be imprisoned!”
Annie no long resisted when she heard his words.
Connor was her only family.
Because of her, he came alone to the F City regardless of the disproval of his parents.
And he would choose to collaborate with Ralph to ensnare the Brown Group because he wanted her to live a better life.
She could not see her lover imprisoned.
She could not accept that.
Ralph laughed triumphantly when he saw Annie stopped struggling.
Then he tore her clothes quickly. “OK, my sweetheart, I will take care.”
But the door was kicked on.
Before Ralph had any response, someone ran in and flattened him with a punch. Then Ralph fell off nakedly.
“You son of bitch. How dare you to harass my…” …wife.
Connor was silenced when he saw it was Ralph.
Ralph?
His boss?
He was shocked, angered, humiliated and resentful at this point. Then he landed his punch on the wall instead of Connor’s face.
His hand was bleeding.
“Connor…”
Annie was sad when she saw he was bleeding.
She got up to look his wound. But a chill stole over her body. Then she realized she was also naked. She turned pale and covered herself with blanket.
“Ralph, you jerk! You hit on my wife?” Although Connor did not hit Ralph, he was still enraged.
He gritted his teeth and grabbed Ralph’s neck firmly with his red eyes.
Connor held Ralph so tightly that Ralph’s neck was very painful. And Ralph could not even breathe.
At that moment, Ralph felt Connor might kill him.
He was told that Connor really cared bout Annie. Connor would not allow anyone to hurt her.
Nevertheless…
She was so beautiful and sexy.
Ever since he met her in the dinner, he had always thought about how to seduce her.
Although he kept thinking about her, he managed to control himself because he was still cooperating with Connor.
Possibly he drank too much today. Actuated by desire, Ralph tried everything to force Annie to sleep with him.
He looked up at Connor’s veined face. Though he was scared by Connor’s look, he still tried to be firm with Connor. “What? I just want to have sex with your wife.”
“Ralph!”
“You can call the police. Then I will reveal what you have done to the Brown Group. I’ll make you imprisoned as well if I go to jail.”
Ralph pulled himself free from Connor’s grasp and stabbed his finger at Connor’s chest. “Don’t just stay here. Go to call the police, now!”
Ralph came closer to Connor, but Connor kept stepping backwards.
Clenching his fists, Connor still did not dare to rebel against Ralph. He felt like Ralph was holding his neck now.
