Shannon’s hand trembled as she held the knife. Even a fool could tell what these men were here for.

“How much did the other party pay you? Aren’t you just after more money? I have it. I’ll give it to you.” Shannon wanted to negotiate with them, but her voice was trembling uncontrollably.

She retreated step by step. Although she had experienced something similar before, she was still a woman.

“Money? Haha… You can’t afford the amount that they are paying us. Stop struggling. We’ll make you comfortable.”

“That’s right, pretty girl. We don’t have any requests. As long as you cooperate obediently, we won’t hurt you.”

‘The few of them approached Shannon as they said those words. She retreated step by step, one hand holding the knife and the other holding the door handle, wanting to open the door and escape.

“Tm begging you. Can’t you just say that you’ve had your way with me, and I’ll pay you more money?” While thinking of a way to escape, Shannon didn’t forget to negotiate with the other party.

However, those people had already taken Janice’s money. Moreover, with the Yard family’s status in this city, they didn’t dare to disobey her orders. They had to execute the order.

Those people slowly approached Shannon, and the greasy smiles on their faces made Shannon’s heart tremble. All her hairs were standing on their ends with fear.

“Who do you think you can scare with a knife?” Shannon’s knife was snatched away easily.

Tears rolled down her cheeks, and in her panic, her legs had already turned weak.

If these people really succeeded, she would really die.

“LL. Ah!”

Shannon was just about to negotiate with them again when her clothes were torn by them.

One greasy hand was already on her chest. Shannon struggled with all her might, trying her best to open the door.

Her body fell heavily on the door frame, and Shannon immediately felt the pain, her hands grabbing onto the door frame desperately.

“Woman! You’re quite strong!”

The few of them pulled Shannon’s leg and dragged her into the house. Shannon struggled desperately, and her hair was stuck to her face.

“What are you doing?! Who are you?”

Just as Shannon felt that all was lost, a familiar voice sounded.

She gave up struggling and looked in the direction of the voice. Matthew?

“Run! Go! Hurry up…”

“Do you know who I am? How dare you do such a thing in broad daylight? Do you want to die?” Matthew roared furiously as he removed his clothes and wrapped them around Shannon.

Shannon pulled the clothes on her tightly, her entire body still trembling.

“I’d advise you to mind your own business! Otherwise…”

“Otherwise, what would you do? I should be the one telling you to turn yourselves in now! Given the Wenleys’ status in this city, there’s no one that we can’t catch!” Matthew berated angrily.

‘When the hooligans heard Matthew say that he was from the Wenley family, they looked at one another in fear.

“Call the police, I…”

“Don’t speak first. I’m here. It’ll be fine.” Matthew comforted Shannon, then picked up his phone and called the police.

Those gangsters stood there without daring to move. There were surveillance cameras everywhere. As long as the Wenleys wanted to find them, they could be found anywhere.

“Tm not going. I don’t want to go back. No.” Matthew was about to carry Shannon into the house when she rejected him.

She grabbed Matthew’s clothes, her eyes filled with fear.

Matthew carried Shannon downstairs and sat her down in the park downstairs, then waited for the police to arrive.

“Don’t be afraid. I’m here.” Matthew held her gently.

Shannon was still in a state of shock. She was usually very careful, but she was really too careless today.

“Did they hurt you?” Matthew asked Shannon softly.

Shannon looked up with teary eyes and shook her head. The image of the moment when the large hand touched her body appeared in her mind again.

She tugged at the clothes again and wrapped them tightly around herself.

“President, bad news. Miss Zanders’ law firm has been destroyed. Her partner is already in the hospital. Also, our people said that a bunch of hooligans went to Miss Zanders’ house an hour ago. It seems like…” Jake looked flustered and didn’t dare to continue.

Max pressed the document on the table hard with the pen in his hand. When he heard Jake’s words, the pen flew out.

An extremely sharp glint flashed across Max’s eyes. Jake gulped when he saw Max’s gaze, and he was terrified.

“I’ve already sent someone over, but I don’t know if Miss Zanders…” Jake glanced at Max’s eyes, and his palms started sweating.

‘Max got up from his desk and walked out.

Along the way, his eyes were filled with a dark glint as he clenched his fists tightly.

“Go and investigate who sent them. Don’t show them any mercy!” Max ordered coldly the moment he opened the car door.

Jake immediately nodded and followed Max to Shannon’s building.

The police had already surrounded the entire building. Max saw the gangsters being taken away, and his heart tightened.

A thought had struck him just now. If those people really did anything to Shannon, he would definitely make them die a horrible death.

He walked towards the entrance and suddenly spotted a familiar figure.

Shannon? Why was she in a man’s arms?

“Miss Zanders, I’m afraid you’ll have to go to the police station with us. We need to record your statement.” The policeman walked over to Shannon and said gently.

Shannon looked up, but her hands were still tightly gripping Matthews shirt.

“Matthew, I don’t want to go. Take me away.” Her eyes were still filled with fear, and it was clear that she didn’t want to go to the police station.

‘Max’s eyes darkened when he saw Shannon leaning on Matthew. Who was she really in love with? Or did she just accept any man?

“My friend is in shock, so I’ll take her away first. I know what to do. I’ll go to the police station later to give you my statement.” Matthew spoke briefly to the police before he carried the disheveled Shannon to the car.

She was still in a daze. Max was right behind her, but she didn’t see him at all.

“Sir, I… I’l go and stop President Wenley!” Jake immediately wanted to stop Shannon when he saw this scene.

However, Max had already tured around to leave. Looking at Shannon’s clothes, he guessed that those hooligans didn’t manage to do anything to Shannon.

“Get the car.” Max stood at the entrance of the neighborhood and waited for Jake to drive over.

Her mind was filled with the scene of Shannon throwing herself into Matthew’s arms. Her actions showed how much she relied on Matthew.

The fire in his heart burned even more.. Who did all these things? Was it Janice?
