Chapter 172
The ident happened so fast that neither of them could foresee it. The man in white wanted to rush
up but was shocked to still after seeing Rosalind’s cold nce.
He couldn’t help wondering. “Is she still a woman? That look is terrifying.”
“Tell him to stay still, or I’ll blind you now.”
Rosalind urged the man in ck
The tile in Rosalind’s hand pressed heavily against the man’s eye and its sharp side was stuck into the
flesh. The man had to close his eyes tightly to avoid the tile from poking his eye.
“Do… Do as she said. Stay still
The man in ck was also scared that his eyes would go blind if Rosalind didn’t maintain the correct
posture while holding the tile.
It was the first time that he had been held hostage by a woman in his life. It had never urred to him
before that this kind of thing would happen to him.
Hearing the other man’s words, the man in white didn’t know what to do, remaining rooted in his
position.
Seeing their obedience, Rosalind breathed a sigh of relief inwardly, but she dared not to ease at all her
pressing of the tile against the man’s eye.
The white dress on Rosalind was stained with dust and blood. Mixed with sweat, it was sticky on her
body and rendered her in a state of difort.
Rosalind pressed the man in ck under her body with her knee and tied his hands randomly with the
rope used on her before. She believed that at least the man was unable to break free for a short time.
After doing all this, Rosalind was already exhausted with sweat. She hooked the neck of the man in
ck with one arm and pressed the tile against the man’s eye with the other hand,pelling him to
move towards the door.
Sensing the tingling pain in his eye, the man in ck dared not to disobey and could only follow
Rosalind out obediently. But he kept winking at the man in white when Rosalind didn’t notice.
After capturing his intention, the man in white picked up a wooden stick at the foot of the wall and
concealed it behind him. He licked his lips and followed Rosalind with an intense gaze.
While restraining the man in ck by his neck, Rosalind maintained a backward movement to prevent
him from escaping and simultaneously evading the other man’s stealthy attack.
Rosalind was nervous and retreated slowly. After a long time, she made her way to the gate of the
factory building.
Rosalind failed to tie the man in ck professionally, so the man already quietly broke free from the
rope without her awareness. But he dared not to make a move with the tile pressed against his eye.
The man in ck cast a wink at hispanion, signaling him to knock Rosalind into aa first.
However, just as the man in white was poised to take action, Rosalind suddenly stumbled over an
obstacle and lost her bnce. The force in her grip intensified, causing the sharp tile to forcefully
scratch the man’s eye.
“Ow, my eye! My eye!”
The piercing and agonizing howls reverberated, leaving others astonished and bewildered.
The man in ck covered one of his eyes and copsed to the ground, with blood sshing all over his
face.
The man in white was also frightened by the sshing blood and experienced a sense of sympathy
with hispanion.
“Bi tch, you love to pay for what you’ve done to me!”
The man in ck only saw the color of blood in his right eye and failed to sense any light. He knew that
his right eye might have been damaged.
put
the order behind his back, and at that moment, he harbored a strong desire to kill this woman who had
blinded him.
He grabbed the stick from the man in white and was about to hit Rosalind’s head with a ferocious look
The stick was very thick, and there was no doubt that Rosalind would lose her life after receiving a blow
from the man at his full strength.
Looking at the stick getting closer and closer, Rosalind could only feel the howling of the wind, and she
forced a smile at the corner of her mouth.
She pondered, “After a long time of struggling and trying, can’t I escape from this today? Dad, Mom,
Yuma, Kevin, Damian and Leonardo… Goodbye…”
Chapter 172
Thinking of her loved ones, Rosalind felt heartbroken. She slowly closed her eyes, waiting for the
arrival of death, A drop of tear trickled down from the corner of her eye, swept through the air, and
dissolved into the darkness.
However, the anticipated pain failed to materialize. Instead, a man’s subdued grunt was heard.
Rosalind suddenly opened her eyes and fixed upon Leonardo’s pursed thin lips, indifferent
countenance, and worried gaze.
And that subdued grunt was right from Leonardo
“Leonardo?”
Rosalind thought she was dreaming and wondered, “How can Leonardo he here at this time?” She
blinked in disbelief to confirm whether or not it was true.
“Well, don’t be afraid. It’s me. Sorry, I’mte,
Looking at Rosalind covered in blood with swollen checks, Leonardo’s eyes suddenly turned red with
distress, self-me, and rage.
It was all his fault. He came toote to save his girl from suffering.
“Don’t be afraid. It’s me. Sorry, I’mte.”
The simple words were like a reassuring pill, which immediately refilled Rosalind’s desperate and cold
heart with hope and
warmth.
Rosalind could no longer contain her emotions anymore and sumbed to tears that cascaded down
like a flood. “That’s okay, sweetheart. I’ll take you home now. Don’t cry, okay?”
Leonardo wiped away Rosalind’s tears in sorrow while carefully avoiding the wound on her face. His
voice was soothing as if he wasforting a distressed child. Còntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
Hearing this, Rosalind cried more loudly. At that moment, she was fragile, devoid of the fierceness she
had disyed when threatening the man in ck with the tile. It was as if she wished to unburden
herself to Leonardo, shedding tears as she recounted all the grievances, fears, and despair that had
befallen her that night.
The two men got startled at the sight of Leonardo’s appearance, and they hurried to look around in
panic.
After confirming that there was only Leonardo, the two signed with relief.
“You want to leave? There’s no way!” eximed the man in ck.
With one eye open, he red fiercely at Leonardo and Rosalind, his intent to end their lives
uncontainable.
The man in ck thought, “The woman is impossible to leave today for hurting my eye. Even if the man
is here to rescue her, he can only meet the same end as her.”
Leonardo wasforting Rosalind. When hearing the words of the two men, he directed a cold re at
them..
The two men shivered subconsciously out of fear upon receiving Leonardo’s gaze. They felt that the
man’s demeanor and aura were so formidable that instilled a strong desire within them to flee.
But thinking that they were two while Leonardo was alone, the two men calmed down again,
exchanged a nod, and charged toward Leonardo together.
Leonardo put Rosalind at the foot of the wall with caress first, so as to prevent her from getting injured.
“Good girl, I’ll take you home after taking down them.”
