Chapter 124
Ugh…
Thalia stilled for a moment. “J-Justst month?”
Gary’s expression turned grim. “You’re lying to me?” This wasn’t a question; it was more of a
statement.
“Why would I?” Thalia asked in return, shing an awkward smile.
Suddenly, Keh charged forward and ambushed Gary from behind before dragging Natasha

out of the madd’s grasp.
However, Gary was tall and had quick reflexes, and he swung his dagger forward the moment he
realized what Keh was up to, not caring who he struck.
Keh hastily pulled Natasha into his arms to prevent her from getting hurt. As the dagger
pierced his shoulder, he sent Gary staggering backward with a sudden kick.
“Keh!” Natasha began to tear up as she gazed at the man protecting her.
Seeing the look of worry on her pale face, Keh curved his lips into a smile. “It’s the first time
you’ve ever looked at me like this. I’d say my efforts are worth it.”
Natasha watched as blood poured out of his wounds like a fountain.
“Are you okay?” she asked, reaching for his stomach. “We have to stop the bleeding.”
Keh grinned at her actions. “Don’t worry. I’m not going to die from this.”
The woman’s hands trembled as she stared at him.
At that moment, Gary approached them from behind with a wicked smile on his face. “Since you’re
that inseparable, I’ll send you off together!” Then, he aimed his dagger at Keh’s body once
more.
“Look out!” Thalia swiftly kicked Gary by the arm before ncing at Keh.
“This isn’t the time to get all lovey-dovey, Keh! Can’t you pick a better time?”
As Gary charged at her again, she fought him while continuing to speak to Keh. “You owe me
big time!”
Unfazed, Keh turned to Natasha while maintaining his smile. “Wait for me somewhere safe.”
Aware that she shouldn’t add any more trouble, the woman nodded. “Be careful,” she reminded
softly before retreating.
Keh’s smile slowly turned malicious, and he now looked as though he had crawled out of the
depths of the abyss.
Suddenly, Gary seemed to have lost all his sanity. “Everyone who gets in my way will die—
including you!” he bellowed, dashing toward Thalia.
While hisrge physique and swiftness were his only advantages, Thalia was agile and well-
trained. But no matter how many times the girl attacked him, he was like a walking corpse charging
forward constantly, unafraid of pain or even death.
“Geez! Does this guy not have any pain receptors?” Thalia couldn’t help but exim.
As soon as Keh turned around, his gaze turned as frightening as that of a lion ready to hunt its
prey.
He pulled the knife right out of his abdomen and stared at Gary. “You shouldn’t have touched her!”
he roared, lunging forward.
This was Thalia’s first time watching Keh fight.
The man was so powerful and quick that he sent Gary to the ground with just one kick, and the
Keh red at him while gnashing his teeth so hard that one could hear the sound of friction. “I
told you that you shouldn’t have touched her!”
Soon, Gary got back on his feet, and the fight resumed.
Keh stepped forward and kicked Gary to the ground again, causing thetter’s lip to bleed.
The process repeated itself several times.
Keh appeared to be battering him deliberately.
Gary’s strength began to wane, but Keh looked as though he still hadn’t had enough.
Thalia couldn’t bear the sight any longer.
She then recalled the time she had a spar with Keh. He didn’t make a single move!
But now I get why there are so many rumors of him in the underworld.
This guy is a psycho!
He’s taking his sweet time killing!
“Why? Why? You’re the ones who should be dying!” Gary screamed while sprawled out on the
ground.
Keh kept his eyes on him while walking forward, his presence was as chilly as that of a Grim
Reaper approaching its target.
“You can hurt me, but you’re asking for it when you hurt her,” Keh dered with a foot over
Gary’s body. Then, he began to punch thetter’s face repeatedly without any mercy.
It wasn’t long until Gary’s face became so drenched in blood that his features were no longer
recognizable.
Thalia turned away.
Holy shit!
One should never cross Keh.
She then turned to Natasha, who was staring straight at Keh.
“D-Don’t be afraid. Everything is fine!” she assured.
Natasha nced at her and said nothing.
After some time, Gary looked like he was on the verge of death.
“The cops will be here soon, Keh. You might want to stop!” Thalia reminded.
Yet, Keh showed no signs of wanting to stop.
Upon realizing that, Natasha walked toward him. “Keh!”
The man stopped only after hearing her voice, and he turned to her. There were specks of blood
on his face, making him look rather diabolical.
“That’s enough,” said Natasha, shaking her head at him.
Keh pursed his lips in silence.
Then, he began using the dagger to swipe across Gary’s body slowly—in the exact same way the
Natasha watched on with an inexplicable look in her eyes.
“Arghhhh!” Gary cried out in pain.
Yet, Keh merely looked on with a tyrannical smile on his face.
At that very moment, a series of footsteps could be hearding from the hallway.
Anthony showed up first, and he rushed toward Natasha instantly. “Mommy! Are you hurt?”
Natasha shook her head. “I’m fine.”
“The police are here…” Anthony trailed off upon noticing the injuries on the woman’s body. Then,
his eyes reddened as he turned to the man lying on the floor.
The boy dashed over and began tond his fists on every corner of Gary’s face.
“How dare you hurt my mommy? I’ll kill you! I’m going to kill you!” he shrieked while punching the
man.
He didn’t possess a lot of strength, but he gave all he had.
I’ll kill anyone who hurts Mommy!
“Anthony!” Natasha called out to him, but the boy had no intention of stopping.
He had lost control just like Keh.
Then, as soon as he spotted the dagger in Keh’s hand, he grabbed it and swung it toward
Gary.
“Anthony!” Natasha and Thalia cried out at the same time.
