    Standing beside Kevan was a group of burly men with expressionless faces dressed in ck suits. As


    one of them took a step toward Bethany, she burst into tears, wailing loudly.


    She grabbed onto the hem of Jack’s uniform and hid behind him, using his body as a shield. Caught off


    guard. Jack was almost pulled off bnce and he barely managed to stop himself from falling over by


    cing a hand on the ground.

    Jack looked up at Kevan helplessly. “Maybe you should personally bring her home.”


    Upon hearing this, Kevan furrowed his brows in disgust. Just the thought of holding her hand in his


    made his stomach churn.


    He waved at Bethany and ordered in an impatient tone. “Come over here.”


    When she heard his voice, Bethany stopped crying and cautiously peered over at Kevan from behind


    Jack, After making sure that Kevan was calling her, she gradually inched closer toward him with baby


    steps.


    As she reached out her hand toward Kevan, he turned away, leaving her outstretched hard hovering


    limply in the air for a few seconds.


    Biting her lip in disappointment, Bethany sniffed her tears away and hurried after Kevan’s retreating


    footsteps.


    Kevan did not bring Bethany home to his parents. Instead, he locked her up in another vacant house


    with a female bodyguard to apany her instead.


    Although Bethany tried to resist by throwing a tantrum, one nce from Kevan was all it took to shut


    her up as she was afraid of him,


    When Dn learned about this, he asked Kevan, “How long are you nning to keep her locked up?”


    Kevan gave a vague answer. “A while longer.”


    Dn was worried about Bethany’s condition. “If you keep her locked up any longer, her entire future

    However, Kevan looked straight at Dn with a piercing gaze and remarked, “Don’t forget what she did

    Dn had nothing to say in reply. He continued. “How about Xavier and Cody?”


    “Rx, neither of them will be able to escape,” Kevan dered as a determined glint appeared in his


    eyes.


    “What did you say?‘ In the backseat of the car, Xavier was so furious that he flung the cigar that was


    between his fingers.


    The lit cigar bounced off the back of the front seat andnded on Xavier’s pants, burning a hole in his


    expensive suit. When the lit end touched his skin, Xavier screamed in pain,


    Xavier kicked him hard, causing him to m into the car door. “You useless piece of trash! Get the hell


    away from me!”


    Feeling guilly, Lan didn’t dare speak.


    “Damn it! I paid you such a high sry, and this is now you do your job? What’s the point of keeping


    you around? I might as well get a dog Instead!” Xavier ranted as he reached for his phone and called a


    number.


    “Hello, is this M. Donovan? Are you busytely? Do you have time to have a meal together? Xavier


    spoke in an ingratiating tone.
