Chapter 103
Sheer panic arose in Natalie as she could not guarantee the safety of Sophia and Xavian now that she had gotten hurt. However, a flicker of hope lit in her eyes upon witnessing Samuel’s appearance.
Relief poured over Natalie as she no longer resisted her body’s pains. At that moment, she allowed the discomfort of her wounds to take over her consciousness.
Darn, these cuts really do pack quite a punch...
The two men had not realized the figure was Samuel. After turning around to lock gazes with him, their faces instantly twisted into expressions of shock and terror.
The scar-faced man shared a knowing look with his accomplice and muttered, “Let’s get out of here!”
They turned around quickly, wanting to escape.
The two barely took a few steps before Samuel brought them to the ground with a swift leg sweep.
At that, the scar-faced man gripped his knife tightly. He wanted to get up and fight back but could not as his wrist got ruthlessly stepped on by a pair of expensive leather shoes.
“Ahhhh!” The man cried out in agony. His face writhed almost to the point of distortion.
Crack!Some seconds passed before his wrist bone got utterly crushed, and he dropped his knife.
“M-My hand!” The scar-faced man shrilled while quivering in pain.
All traces of color drained from his face. Even his arm turned to a ghastly white.
Meanwhile, the accomplice pissed his pants in fear while begging for mercy. “We... We were only following orders. Technically, we didn’t harm Sophia! Only that random ugly woman got hurt. Please have mercy on me!”
Samuel’s eyes narrowed to vicious slits.
This punk has got some nerve! Sophia is my daughter, and Natalie is my beloved. How dare he hurt and offend the two most precious women in my life! He‘ll pay dearly for crossing me. I‘m going to make him regret the day he was born.
“How about no?” With that, Samuel crushed the accomplice’s wrist.
Billy brought some other subordinates of the Bowers family with him to the scene sometime later.
