Chapter 2823
“Is everyone alright in there?” Nn’s voice was hoarse with concern.
The two staff members who had been standing guard exchanged a frightened nce. “A guy just
imed to be the boyfriend of the guest staying here, so we let him in. We don’t really know if the
person inside is someone you’re familiar with!”
Nn’s heart skipped a beat. “Open the door, now!”
“Oh? Right, sure!”
One of the staff, carrying a master key card for the entire hotel, swung the door open.
In that moment, Nn had a sudden thought. He motioned for the other employees to step back,
ensuring that no one would witness the scene inside. Only then did he enter.
His heart was in his throat as he stepped inside, but it dropped at the sight before him. A skinny man
lay on the floor, clutching his stomach.
And there was Regina, gripping a shard of broken ss, blood streaming from her palm. Thankfully,
Nn had arrived in time.
He rushed over, draping a cotton nket around Regina’s shoulders and carefully taking hold of her
wrist.
Regina, groggy and disoriented, flinched at the touch. She struggled weakly, tears slipping helplessly
from the corners of her eyes.
“It’s me, Nn. Don’t be afraid. You’re safe now.”
The familiarity of his voice calmed her, and her grip loosened as she recognized him, someone she
could trust.

Nn looked at the injured Regina with a heart full of pain, dreading to think what might have
happened if he had arrived even a momentter.
The thug on the floor was still moaning and groaning.
With tender care, Nn wrapped Regina’s wrist with a towel, but the thug was far from satisfied. He
stood up, confronting Nn, “Who the hell are you? You know you’re gonna get struck by lightning for
messing with someone’s girl, right? That’s my girlfriend, what do you think you’re doing? Watch it, I can
get people toe teach you a lesson!”
The thug’s bravado faded as Nn approached, his menacing presence making him retreat step by
step.
“Just a minute ago, this crazydy stabbed me with ss. Who knows how bad it is? You wanna start
something? The hall’s full of staff, you really think I can’t yell for them toe in?” he taunted, but
Nn didn’t give him a chance to follow through.
With a swift kick, Nn sent him flying a good two meters, and the thug crashed to the floor,
unconscious.
Facing the now-silenced thug on the floor, Nn’s chest heaved with unsteady emotion. If not for
Regina lying on the bed, he would not have let the thug off so easily.
But Regina was his priority, her well-being and her dignity.
After a moment’s thought, he decided to send the staff away-the fewer people who knew about today’s
events, the better.
“Get two people to take this guy to the hospital, and make sure he doesn’t just walk away,” he
instructed the only staff member he allowed inside, who was intently staring at the floor, not daring to
look up even once.
He was acutely aware of why he had been allowed in-alone. It meant something. If he wanted to keep
his job, he’d better keep today’s events to himself.
Nn was pleased with his discretion. Once the staff had left, he gently picked up Regina. Just as he
was about to carry her down in the executive elevator, the door burst open, and a flurry of people
rushed in.
“Francis, don’t be mad. I only heard from others, and Regina… she’s not that kind of girl.”
