Chapter 425
The thugs found Viola’s frightened appearance amusing. “Why so scared? We’re just making friends. We’ll take good care of you,” one of them sneered.
Looking at the greasy and ugly faces in front of her, Viola felt disgust along with her fear. She retorted, “I have a boyfriend. If you dare touch me, my boyfriend won’t let you off.”
The young man who had pulled her over mocked, “In that case, call your boyfriend over. I’d love to see who’s the one who’ll be let off easy.”
Viola was still gripping Melanie’s hand tightly due to fear, ignoring the pain she was causing. In an attempt to calm her, Melanie held Viola’s other hand, urging her not to provoke the thugs any further.
However, instead of calming down, Viola shook off Melanie’s hand. She took out her phone from her bag, saying, “I’ll call him over. Just wait—”
Before she could finish her sentence, someone slapped the phone out of her hand and onto the ground.
The thug smirked. “Call him over for what? So that he can watch how you’ll entertain us? Hmm?”
These thugs were no strangers to illegal activities. One of them grabbed Viola’s sleeve. With a forceful pull, the sound of fabric tearing echoed through the alley.
Viola screamed and attempted to kick the thug, but with her limited strength, she failed to land a hit

Amid her struggles, Viola, both frightened and anxious, looked back at Melanie. Her eyes were full of pleading. “Melanie, quickly make them stop!”
Melanie frowned. How could she make them stop? Nevertheless, she did not dwell on it for long since she could not let these people harm Viola.
Melanie pulled Viola behind her, her expression cold as she glared at the lead thug. She attempted to conceal her fear as she said, “You want money, right? I’ll give it to you.‘
”
The thugs exchanged glances and halted their actions. The lead thug said, “Shouldn’t you have said that earlier? We wouldn’t have needed to get rough with you earlier.”
He reached out to touch Melanie’s face, but she quickly dodged.
Hiding behind Melanie, Viola seemed to be in a daze as she asked, “Do you know them? Why are they asking you for money?”
Melanie was on the verge of breaking down into laughter. Viola’s focus was peculiar at this moment. Despite being in the midst of danger, she was still trying to set traps.
Before Melanie could respond, the shrill sound of police sirens echoed in the distance, and it was approaching rapidly. Having sensed things were going south, Melanie felt a slight relief upon hearing the siren.
She had already dialed the emergency number in her bag when she sensed danger earlier,
