Chapter 149
Hector''s brother, Gabriel Chadwick, stood beside Adeline and asked, "Mr. Ford, what do you mean? Are you saying my brother should show some
sincerity?”
"Break his leg." ke said coldly.
Gabriel shivered and exined, "Mr. Ford, actually, my brother and your wife are victims. The real perpetrator behind this was Mrs. Ford''s uncle."
"That''s between you and Victor. All I know is that my wife was harassed. If she hadn''t knocked your brother unconscious, this would be more than just
breaking a leg.”
ke''s voice wasmanding and intimidating.
The Chadwicks froze and felt a chill creeping up from their feet up to their heads.
Indeed, if Yasmin had really been assaulted by Hector, the consequences would''ve been disastrous.
Gabriel guessed ke''s intention and said. “Mr. Ford, you can rest assured that we''ll handle Victor ourselves. After all, he put my brother in this
situation, so we won''t let him off."
At this, ke''s lips curled up slightly.
Thinking that he''d guessed right about ke wanting them to deal with Victor, Gabriel then said respectfully, "As for my brother, he''s now in the ICU
Could you perhaps be a bit more lenient with him?"
ke then shot him an ice-cold re and said, “One leg, non-negotiable.”
Gabriel was so frightened by ke''s gaze that he broke out in a cold sweat and trembled as he replied, "Yes! I''ll present to you a satisfactory result
tomorrow.”
"See them out."
ke then stood up and took Yasmin upstairs as Mary saw the Chadwick family out.
Yasmin nced back at them and quietly asked, "Are we really going to break his leg?”
"If there''s no consequence for doing something wrong, he''ll do it again.” ke looked at Yasmin and continued, “Instead of feeling sorry for him, you
should think about the women he''s drugged before.”
ke was absolutely right.
In fact, his response surprised Yasmin. She hadn''t expected him to be so upright and principled.
Suddenly, she didn''t feel sorry for Hector anymore. He deserved it for drugging and harassing innocent women!
Then, Yasmin went upstairs to take a shower.
When she came out of the bathroom, she noticed that her phone had been incessantly ringing.
It was Ivan calling.
Yasmin sat down and answered, "Hello, Mr. Burke."
"I heard someone caused trouble at yourpany today.” Ivan said
Yasmin was puzzled. "Mr. Burke, how did you know?"
"Eunice told me,” Ivan exined.
They were in a group chat because of their mutual business interests.
Yasmin checked the group chat and saw that Eunice had indeed shared the news of the day''s events.
Yasmin felt a bit awkward as she replied, "It''s not a big deal."
"Do you need help with it?"
Yasmin shook her head and refused, "No, I''ll handle it myself tomorrow."

ke had said, “When you''re feeling too soft, remember how heartless they were to you.”
Exactly.
If Victor had shown anypassion, he wouldn''t have sold her to Hector.
But since he''d disregarded their family ties first. Yasmin had no reason to be merciful now.
"Can you really handle it?” Ivan asked.
Yasmin smiled and said, "If I can''t,
there''s always the police. Their. Ss
actions were illegal, and I could have
ther arrested.”

"Didn''t think you''d have such a goad idea.” Ivanplimented her.
Yasmin blushed, not knowing what to say next.
Just then, ke came out of the shower and was drying his hair.
