Chapter 192

Nyx had just finished dinner and went out for a walk, strolling around the neighborhood a few times before deciding to go

farther.

The moment she stepped out of the complex, she felt an odd sense of danger. She scanned her surroundings and quickly locked onto Fabian and his crew.

Casually, she withdrew her gaze as if she hadn’t seen them and kept walking.

As expected, they followed. When she reached a quieter stretch of road with fewer pedestrians, they hurried forward and surrounded her.

“Still remember me?” Fabian studied Nyx up close, his eyes lecherous as he reached out to touch her face.

It had been a long time. Nyx had grown even more beautiful than he remembered. Once a delicate little beauty, she had transformed into a radiant and healthy stunner–no wonder she managed to land a rich nepo baby.

Staring at her graceful figure and perfect face, Fabian suddenly felt she was worth that 150–thousand–dollar wedding gift after all.

To think he and that rich guy Archie sharing the same woman–he didn’t feel like he was losing out.

Fabian’s thoughts shifted in an instant. He didn’t even bother asking for money anymore. Instead, he smirked and said, “Come on, let’s go home. As long as you behave from now on, I won’t hold anything against you.”

Nyx frowned and dodged his hand.

“Tsk, what are you playing shy for?” Fabian sneered, reaching for her again, but she avoided him every time. After missing twice, he flew into a rage. “What’s the big deal if I touch you? Didn’t that rich guy grope you plenty?”

“You really don’t know what’s good for you,” he snarled, raising his hand to slap her.

Fabian had been used to hitting women. His ex–wife had been beaten into a divorce. He thought a woman like Nyx, who didn’t listen, deserved even worse.

Not far away, Archie had been watching th”

With a loud shout, he grabbed Fabian’s arm and twisted it behind his back.

The movements were swift and fluid.

Archie had already mapped out the whole “hero saves beauty” scenario in his head, and it played out just as smoothly as he imagined.

He puffed out his chest proudly and glanced at Nyx, thinking, ‘See that? I’m the one you can rely on when things get tough. Way better than that so–called ‘husband‘ of yours–where is he, anyway? Nowhere to be seen.

His moment of triumph was instantly ruined as Fabian’s lackeys rushed in, cursing and yelling, “Where the hell did this brat come from? Beat him to death.”

Archie worked out and was in good shape. He had even trained in combat sports. But he had zero real fight experience— facing a gang of thugs all at once, panic set in.

His expression changed. “Nyx. Run.”

A fist came flying at him. He let go of Fabian and barely dodged it, but he couldn’t avoid the kick from behind. It sent him
