To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 1283

There was no way Zack would allow anything bad to happen to Janet. He broke free of the two men holding him back and rushed toward her. Then, he shoved the man who tried to sexually assault her. "Janet, don't be scared!" He quickly pulled her into his arms and backed away.

The man was infuriated. He drew a dagger and pointed it at Zack. "You're courting death, aren't you? But you're at the wrong place. No one would bat an eye even if I killed you here!"

Zack stared at him fearlessly. "Isn't money all you want? I'll pay you. Let us go."

"I wanted money at first, but I have changed my mind. I want the woman now!" The man was incandescent because no one had the audacity to challenge him like Zack.

Janet clutched onto Zack tightly in fear. "Zack, you should go. Don't mind me."

"Nonsense!" He turned around to look at her. How could he possibly leave her behind?

"Leave that woman behind and bow to me for forgiveness, and I might forgive you," the man demanded as he walked toward Zack.

Zack regretted not learning martial arts more enthusiastically when he was taking lessons with Jenny. If he did, he would have been strong enough to fight back. "I'd advise you to think before you act. We're living under the rule of law." He attempted to calm his opponent.

However, the hooligans never held any regard for the law. "It's the rule of law for an average man like you. But for us, it's a dog-eat-dog world." To them, the law existed to be broken. The man in the lead was backed by the Britt family, one of the Ten Elites in Bardoff City, and that fueled his arrogance. Zack, the upper-middle-class guy, was not to be taken seriously.
