Chapter 2762
Yannie did not know who this man was, but when she saw him storming toward Thomas in anger, she
instinctively leaped in front of Thomas to shield him.
Smack! The man’s pnded on Yannie’s face harshly.
The entire hallway fell silent at this.
Everyone, including the tall man and Thomas, who had just emerged from the elevator, were too
stunned to speak.
A split secondter, Thomas pulled Yannie into his arms and shot the man a murderous re. “Dan, if
you have anything against me, you shoulde at me like a man instead of hurting innocent women!”

Yannie realized that this tall man was none other than Dan Howard, Thomas‘ half–brother.
Dan immediately regained hisposure upon hearing this. He shot his brother a cold look and
snapped, “If this woman hadn’te out of nowhere, you would’ve gotten it!”
With that, he stormed toward Thomas once more, shouting, “How dare you even show your face here
after hurting our dad like this? Not only that, but you even let your woman protect you?”
Dan was anky man, so when he stormed toward Thomas, he kicked up a gust of wind that seemed
to take over the entire room.
Yannie was worried that Thomas, in his weakened state, would not stand a chance against him, so she
tried to pry herself out of Thomas‘ grip, but instead, she was trapped.
Thomas reached out to stop Dan’s fist and, in doing so, lowered his head to smile at her. “I’m always
here to protect you. No matter what happens, you don’t need to protect me.”
At this moment, Dan raised his other arm in preparation. forbat.
Thomas curled his lips into a smirk, shoved Yannie aside, and grabbed Dan’s other hand before he
could bring it down on him.
Then, he gave a sharp twist “Agh-!” Dan’s wails of agony echoed through the hallway.
“Thomas Howard! Is hurting your father not enough that you now want to hurt your brother too?” Tina
quickly sprinted over, shoving Yannie out of the way in annoyance, and grabbed hold of Thomas‘ arm.
“Let go of him!”
Thomas curled his lips into a sneer. “I hadn’t intended to harm him at all, but…”
He narrowed his eyes and nced at Yannie, whose cheek was red and swollen from Dan’s p. “He
laid his finger on Yannie.”
He gave another sharp twist, and with another howl of pain, Dan finally slumped to the ground limply.
Tina quickly stormed forward to check on him.
Even though Dan had always been tall, he was surprisingly malnourished and weak for his size, so he
could not stand a chance against Thomas at all.
At this moment, both his armsy limply by his sides as though Thomas had dislocated them.
Tina was both upset and concerned by this. However, she had no choice but to lift Dan off the ground
and go off in search of a doctor, all the while muttering profanities about Thomas under her breath.
After the two of them left, Thomas furrowed his brow and strode over to Yannie’s side. He ced one
arm around her shoulder as he gently touched her cheek with his other hand. “Does it hurt?”
It was his fault for identally hurting Senior Howard; if Dan had attacked him because of this, he
would not have resisted. Not only that, but he would have weed Dan’s wrath and announced that
he had already received the punishment he deserved.
After all, Senior Howard had done plenty of bad things toward him throughout the years, so this would
put the two of them even.
However, Dan pped Yannie instead.
This was what had sent Thomas over the edge and broken his arms out of rage.
“I’m fine.” Yannie felt a little uneasy at the intimate position they were adopting. She pursed her lips,
removed herself from Thomas‘ grasp, and then pointed at Senior Howard’s room. “You’d better go
quick.”
Thomas furrowed his brow. “What’s going on, Yannie?”
Why was she desperately trying to avoid him?
“You should go visit your father first,” Joshua’s voice rang out from behind him. “You’ll find out what
happened with Yannie soon enough.”
