Jack Hughes!
Even if she didn’t turn around, Shirley Lynn still knew whose fierce look it was from.
In an instant.
Shirley felt as if her entire body was locked up and a chill went up from her soles to her head.
She took out her phone from her bag with her right hand, but she was hesitating whether she should call or not.
“What are you waiting for? Just fucking call!”
When he saw that Shirley was hesitating, Austin Turner suddenly yelled and cursed in pain.
Shirley trembled in shock and fright.
She bit her red lip and glanced at Austin. Then finally, her eyes landed on Jack.
At this moment, she was weighing her options!
Because she knew a part of Jack’s identity.
She even held her grudge on him and tried to inquire on Jack and Amber’s identity and background back then when she was forced to leave.
As soon as she got the results, she felt extremely hopeless.
Otherwise, how could she willingly leave?
And why would she leave her home to permanently settle in the far away South Maine?
How should she choose? One side was that she was scared of Jack’s background, and the other side was her target.
Just at that moment.
Jack rubbed his nose and coldly smiled, “Go on and call. I’d like to also see the one that everyone fears here tonight…Saxon Turner”
He didn’t even try to hide the mockery in his words.
He didn’t need to look up at merely one city’s “richest man”.
No matter how rich and powerful Saxon was.
But when compared to the Burton family from the capital city and the Quinn family from X City, he was just nothing.
The Burton and Quinn families were not just the wealthiest in their respective cities.
But he was still able to overthrow them.
What was the big deal with just the…Turner family?
“Young master, even though we are powerful, it would be hard for us to fight the most powerful locals here. We are here to travel. Mr. Knight and the others are still waiting for us in the hotel.”
Mr. Ward slightly frowned. Daisy Hill, Steve Knight, and his wife drove ahead a while ago.
Because Mr. Ward and Brent needed to take care of Jack who was in wheelchair, they were separated by a distance. Thus, Steve and the others didn’t know about their car accident.
Even if the richest man here and could control everything in South Maine.
But it still meant nothing important to Mr. Ward.
For Mr. Ward, to fight with the Turner family of South Maine was to bring fishy and disgusting things upon to themselves.
It was not worth it at all!
“I can lose my life! But nobody can humiliate my woman!”
Jack suddenly raised his eyes and stared at Mr. Ward, “The powerful outsiders must crush the powerful locals!”
Jack’s stare seemingly left Mr. Ward in chills and daze in an instant. He even saw turbulent waves of blood and floating bones across the bloody sea in Jack’s eyes.
Fear... made Mr. Ward suffocate.
Amber Knight, who stood beside him, also felt Jack’s changes.
The coldness in Jack was something that ordinary people could easily notice.
This was enough to prove how real and strong the coldness was.
However, Amber didn’t care at all. She tenderly looked at Jack.
At this moment, the warmth in her heart calmly surged in.
As a woman, who wouldn’t yearn for a strong pair of arms to protect you in times of danger?
With the car accident a while ago and Austin’s insult, Jack was doing what a man was supposed to do to a woman at times like this: protect her.
The next second.
While Mr. Ward was stunned.
Jack turned his head abruptly and squinted and stared with his round eyes powerfully. In that instant, it was as if a tsunami suddenly crushed on Shirley, who was still hesitating.
“Call now!”
The loud scream was like a thunder.
Shirley was so scared that she pressed the dial button in panic.
This also made everyone present extremely shocked. Their jaws almost dropped to the ground.
After a short while, the shocked crowd finally returned to their senses.
The ones took photos and recorded videos with their phones a while ago hurriedly deleted everything they took in panic and fear.
Because they knew.
This…was already more than just a homicide and car accident case!
Just a while ago.
Austin intentionally crashed his car onto theirs and attempted to murder them. He even didn’t try to hide his humiliation and desire for someone else’s wife.
In the eyes of the crowd, he was literally mad.
Everyone could criticize him fiercely from moral high ground.
However, Saxon would be involved due to Austin’s broken legs.
