Chapter 302 He Came To The Rescue
"Mr. Lester said that we have to catch them alive," one of the men instructed loudly, shaking the
stun baton he was holding in his hand. J and Laney could almost make out the sound of
electrical buzzing.
As soon as it dawned on Laney that danger wasing their way, she took two steps back with
J, but several more people immediately had them surrounded.
At the same time, they were about ten meters away from the exit, but Ritchie''s men were
everywhere. If they wanted to get away, they would have to y smart.
However, Laney had no time to think up ways of escape now.
As soon as Ritchie issued the order, more than a dozen men charged at them. Laney fought them
off to the best of her ability.
She had been an experienced fighter for over ten years. She was adept at fighting, with or without
weapons. The guards, who tried to attack her with their stun batons, were quickly blocked by her
hands and feet.
Standing behind Laney, J hurried to take a ceramic vase and smashed it down heavily onto the
head of one of the men that had rushed over.
"Don''t bother getting your hands dirty. I''ll do my best to protect you." Sweat poured off of Laney''s
forehead. She quickly raised her foot and kicked the man who was about to capture J in his
arms.
They stood back to back, surrounded by those men out to get them.
Tears welled up in J''s eyes when she heard what Laney said. She pursed her lips tightly and
nced over at Laney. "This is all my fault. I didn''t want to drag you down with me, but somehow I
got you into this fix."
Laney was stunned at first and then smiled gently after hearing her words.
''J was such a stubborn and silly girl.''
Seeing that Laney seemed like a professional, the men decided to band together to attack her.
Laney couldn''t deal with so many people all at once. Pretty soon, she found herself outnumbered.
However, even at the most critical moment, she did everything she could to protect J.
She was doing her duty to protect her employer with all her might.
And she did, in fact, like J a lot.
J looked around at her surroundings and couldn''t find any weapons to help Laney out. She
med herself for not being of much help to her and she had no idea how in the world things had
turned out like this.
Ethan and Ritchie were brothers by blood and Ethan had never warned her that she should be on
guard against the Lester family, so she had never thought this would happen.

Ethan...
All of a sudden, J''s mind was a mess.
She lowered her gaze to the ground in disappointment. She realized that there were really a lot of
things she didn''t know about Ethan. The thing was she might have never really known him in the
first ce.
Ritchie liked to see others struggling desperately for their lives. He had already straightened up his
clothes and was sitting in a chair, watching the two try and not get caught by his men. He crossed
his legs and sat back in a leisurely manner. It appeared that he could still feel the lingering pain. He
touched the back of his neck and cursed furiously, "Bitch, how dare you actually hurt me!"
Laney gasped for breath. She was hurt with several wounds on her arms and legs. Blood seeped
out from her clothes. It really seemed that she was badly injured.
Laney felt nearly wiped out. A few more minutes of this beating and she might actually pass out.
She turned to look at J, licked the bloodstains lingering on her lips, and tried her best to hold
the fort.
J shook her head in Laney''s direction. She was feeling both anxious and worried. She tried to
keep herself from crying, but soon, tears were streaming down her cheeks.
Seeing this, a man circled around from behind them, trying to catch J while she was distracted.
"Ah! Let go of me at once!" J struggled to get away from him.
At this moment, the man was suddenly kicked in
the face and immediately fell to the ground as a result.
Someone pulled J behind him in order to protect her.
She looked up and in time to see... That it was Ethan. Under his ck cap were a pair of eyes full of
anger and coldness. He nced over at the men around, and then looked down at J. He said
with concern in his voice, "Were you hurt?" J threw herself into his arms and held onto his waist
tightly. "I''m fine. Go and help Laney out," she said as she leaned against Ethan''s chest.
Ethan nodded wordlessly and did just that.
He had an important client to meet up with after work so he didn''t get the chance to see J''s
message until now.
It was toote when he finally did see it. It was his guess that J had already left with Ritchie so
he rushed over to try and catch them in time. Looking deeply into Ethan''s eyes, Ritchie sneered with
contempt in his heart.
