Chapter 135
Realizing she couldn’t rely on Ryan, Winnie turned to Harrison for help
“Mr. Sullivan, Mr. Whitlock, let’s not bring the women into this. Please, a little respect for the Zatch family,” Harrison said, summoning his courage,
Charles smiled lightly. “Respect for the Zatch family? Certainly.”
Harrison felt a surge of relief and was about to thank him when Charles continued, “You can leave, but the three women stay.”
He was referring to Winnie, Hannah, and Jenny.
All were attractive, but Jenny stood out. She had been a campus beauty in school and had just graduated from university, now in her prime. She looked truly captivating.
Charles had noticed her immediately. This was a prize he couldn’t walk away from.
The three women turned pale with fear.
Jenny gathered her courage and said, “I’m the Cadwell family’s eldest daughter. Please, let me go.”
Charles scotted. “Your Cadwell family might be one of the ten great tamilies, but they can’t touch me. Besides, I enjoy women of your caliber. It’s thrilling to break someone so high and mighty,”
“No, please, no!” Jenny’s terror blanched her face. She tried to escape, but fierce bodyguards at the door were an unyielding barrier.
Harrison wanted to protest further, but Charles grew visibly angry. “Don’t push your luck. If you don’t leave now, I’ll deal with you too.”
“Maybe we should just go,” Max Campbell suggested hesitantly
Harrison glanced at jenny, his reluctance warring with fear.
This was the woman he’d been courting, eone he’d hoped to win over tonight. Now, she would be another man’s conquest.
Though it pained him, he realized there was nothing he could do.
“Mr. Zatch, save me,” Jenny pleaded, her eyes filled with desperation.
But Harrison felgned ignorance, turning his back and leading his friends out the door. The others scurried behind him, abandoning the three women to their fate.
“Ms. Cadwell, come here,” Charles said impatiently, reaching out to grab Jenny.
“Mr. Sullivan, please spare me,” Jenny begged tearfully, but her pleas only seemed to fuel Charles‘ perverse excitement.
Despair washed over her. There was no escape until a hand suddenly blocked Charles‘ path.
“You can’t touch her!” Sebastian stood between Jenny and Charles, blocking his advance.
Despite Jenny’s flaws, he had promised Lucy he would protect her.
“Sebastian, you..” Jenny was astonished
The man she had dismissed earlier as timid was risking himself for her, while her supposed savior, Harrison, had fled like a coward
The bodyguards who had been letting Harrison and the others leave now grew furious. They slammed the door shut, blocking any exit.
The group seethed.
“Do you have a death wish? Don’t drag us down with you! Apologized to Mr. Sullivan immediately!” Ryan demanded.
Max was equally irritated. “If you make Mr. Sullivan angry, none of us will get out alive. Kneel and apologize right now.”
Charles looked at Sebastian and sneered, “It’s been a while since anyone dared defy me. You’ve got guts, kid”
Sebastian replied calmly, “I don’t want any trouble, but I’m taking these two with me.”
He gestured to Jenny and Hannah.
