“Since you’re not involved in this, get lost, you coward,” Baldy snarled, kicking Shawn aside before turning his attention to Christina. “Ms. Stevens, Mr. Garner has his eye on that property. You’re coming with us to sign it over.”
Shawn crawled away, groveling, “Thank you for your

Internally, he cursed his terrible luck. Jayrodale’s four districts were each controlled by a ruthless crime lord. Dylan was the crime lord of the southerri area, with hundreds of loyal thugs at his command. The Fields family was insignificant in comparison.
“Shawn, they’re taking Christie! Do something!” Irene pleaded desperately.
Leroy joined in, begging, “Shawn, I know you can figure this out. You’re the Fields family heir. Don’t you have connections?”

Irene turned on him, furious. “Shawn, are you even human? You act so high and mighty, but you’re nothing but a spineless coward!
Having just been beaten and suddenly insulted, Shawn’s expression twisted. He spat venomously, “Irene, you blind old hag. You deserve this! Your whole family deserves it.”
“I only got close to your family to get Christina in bed. I couldn’t care less about you idiots,” Shawn continued, revealing his true nature.

Baldy grew impatient. “Ms. Stevens, let’s go. We’re not known for being gentle.”

“Shut up, you old hag. I’d rather die than touch you,” Baldy snarled, slapping Irene so hard she flew backward. His eyes burned with rage as he focused on Christina.
“You little bitch, you’ll regret not playing nice,” he growled menacingly.
Christina stepped back, her face pale as she bluffed, “I’ve already called the cops.”
Baldy’s cruel smile widened. “By the time they show up, we’ll have had our fun with you a hundred times over, you stuck–up tease.”
He raised his hand to strike Christina’s beautiful face.
Many onlookers turned away, unable to watch. It seemed the beautiful CEO was about to face a terrible fate at the hands of these thugs.
